It doesn't matter by the time you get to lurkers... the mutalisks will already have annihilated the Terran.

Protoss have to go archons or really cannon up to survive mutas, Terran cannot stim their marines more than once each or they will end up losing 3 marines per muta shot.

Zerg has a field day in vanilla, speaking from the experience of playing vanilla at LAN at my school. We only got BW in there this year.

Haha, what? Vanilla SC1? I'd totally watch any Zerg who has muta micro smash everything in sight. This should be pretty amusing to say the least.

Should play on the oldest maps too, to make it real. Gogo CHALLENGER and Dire Straits! :D

Yea mech TvZ without Goli range will be hard but i was more thinking about PvZ. I don't think Z has a big edge vs P except during mid game.

Reaver / Ht / archon will rape hydraling so hard in late game. No lurkers means shitty map control/defense for Z and no need for obs for the toss -> more gaz for archives, ht and stuff :p
fuck all those elitists brb watching streams of elite players.

Watched BW for a year or two before SC2 came out- only played a bit right before at a low level on iccup.

I cant even imagine what the matchups would look like without so many key units. TvZ without medics or lurkers? PvZ with no sairs?
Id be very interested to watch this, it would be sure to be interesting to watch, especially in light of how tactics have changed with BW and then having to revert back. (muta stacking like everyone has pointed out)

Every TvZ will be 2port, seeing as it has the best chance against mutas

Haha interesting, I'm interested in playing even though I can barely even hold a D rank on iCCup. But I play SC2 anyways so... lol

So will it be on 1.00 or latest Vanilla version? Either way will be interesting, interesting, and interesting xD

Holy eff, ultra armor upgrade is +5 ???

Also, hydralisks and zerglings are really good. You don't even NEED lurkers.

TvZ might not be imba. Think about it young fellows. Mutalisks will be strong but since there are no medics they have to spend all that gas somewhere. WHERE will it go? VESSELS~! or cloaked wraiths. Making mutalisks ineffective. ALSO u can bunker mineral lines if hes going all in mutalisks and wait for vessel. Obviously you're not going to push out against fast mutalisks. But when you have vessel and a huge huge marine ball what are they going to do now that there's no lurkers and ultralisks are very weak? While you have tankss marines vessels and possibly mines. I think it'll be fun to watch for sure.
TvP not too much change, infact you guys say goliath range will hurt T. This is true. BUT no DTS which means you can spend all your scans to know exactly what hes doing without worrying about needing it to scan for dt. So you know when he's going to go carriers. Also you won't need turrets at all, to protect against DT rush, meaning you can go for a much later ebay when u do a timing push or something.
PvZ a lot of change. Corsair DTs are really good at harassing the zerg. Without them I don't know. HOWEVER no lurkers you dont have to get observers, AND zealots will be far more effective, which will probably mean toss players will skip the stargates since theres no useful units to build out of there, but that means faster zealot and +1 which will do really well since no lurkers, zealots are gonna be really strong. I predict mass gateway army of zealot templars since no lurker, possibly reavers. The problem is mutalisk... but no matter you can morph those templars into archons =]
ZvZ and TvT no change at all
PvP removes DT opening which means it changes the early game!
