Plus it's not very common for Zergs to go mass mutalisk late game by the time you have ghosts anyway =/

I never knew that. But by the time you have ghost, one irradiate is gonna own those mutalisk anyways.

It seems like they basically just took the counters and strategies from the playing guide you get with the Battlechest and posted them online.

Only people who feel threatened by something feel the need to express themselves in physical form to make sure they can convince themselves that what they have is better.

By better, I mean they were able to pick up DoW2 faster and compete and not so much in SC:BW.

"Queens are used, but they're a tech-heavy support unit and they fly, which has reduced the desire for them. Their main advantage is ensare, but Broodling kills high-profile units that the Zerg have trouble with, like Ultralisks, Siege Tanks, and Archons. They are also useful for harassment. Unfortunately, Broodlings cost a lot and take a poopieton of power to use, which is the main problem with them. Parasite is incredibly useful but extremely exploitable; a smart player who notices a unit of his is parasited can set things up so that you see only what he wants you to, while Terran players can cure it entirely. The big reason players use Queens is Ensnare, which is a cheap cloak counter. In general, the Queens are too expensive and tech-heavy to make heavy use of; many players would usually simply overwhelm foes."

seriously next disrespectful comment in this blog is ip ban. Be happy or get the hell out. // SC2 is like playing with neutral-colored Play-Doh while BW is like colorful Legos.

Possibly a filter that changes shit to poopie? I used to post on a forum that changed fuck to fudge and damn to spoon.

These guys aren't too bad at all, they're just clueless.

I mean, the OPs point that some units being useless in most situations is a pretty valid one. Take ZvZ for instance. Almost ALL the units in the zerg arsenal become useless in this matchup. You pretty much have no alternative than to go zerglings and then mutas, and is that really what we want in a game?

It's just that whenever they try to support their claims they reveil how little they actually know about the game. Clearly the only form of Starcraft many of these people have experienced is FMP FFAs, where mutas are not exactly your biggest worry.

"Such as using Dropships vs zerg. only saw it one time. it was great by the way. droped M&M in base killed key buildings game over. Close game great watch. That is why I stopped watching them"
