They just haven't found the right one yet.

I wonder how long a progame would last at a lower speed. Would matches be decided 'sooner' ? or would the match take as 'long' to win as it would at a faster speed?

Queens can goop cloaked units and make them visible. It slows units down, so you can stop people from skirmishing your OLs with air units and getting away.

It's like when you can fungal phoenixes in SC2 to shut down the harass.

Spawn broodling depends on unit comps of enemies. SBing reavers is a great way to make them pay for their teching choice. Against terrans, SB the unit they have least in mech comps, like if they have limited gols or limited tanks. Low gol count + spawn broodling follow up with mutas against the now helpless tanks. Low tank count + spawn broodling follow up with ground against the now vulnerable gols.

Also, queen is the fastest unit in the game, comparable to SC2 oracle. I wish SC2 queen had been like the queen from SC1.
There's no reason blizzard can't release new units or fixes to a game without creating another costly "expansion" you've already paid 100$ for, unless they want to treadmill the gambler with future promises of "it gets better"

Yo you just made up a bunch of ideas about how the game works and posted them like they are true.
Why would I play sctoo when I can play BW?

No, nothing you said was true except for that queens have a move called spawn broodling and a move called ensnare.

spawn broodling has never worked against reavers. well honestly I never played beta but.. never in the full version. I'm not accusing you of lying though, just remembering wrongly.

I can definitely say you could never spawn broodling on reavers since release. Queens are decent units though, just hard to find the timing to use. Also doesn't help that they are completely useless right out of the box and if you got Queens nest why not just wait a bit more for defiler/ultra? I used queens a bit cause ensnare turns off stim. The Scout on the other hand - what the fack is the point =\. (Besides that stupid Stove build)

I, like you, own release copies of SC and BW and have no idea what I'm talking about. I tend to focus on that latter fact, though, and never post in BW strategy discussions.

I've owned a copy of brood war since I purchased it so I'll share my findings on high Templars.

Storm actually regens the shield on your units but affects health negatively.
Halucinating a hallucination actually gives those hallucinations attack damage.
Morphing an archon while having a reaver in the control group allows you to cancel morphing if you start a scarab and hit escape to cancel the scars.

Doesn't storm still damage shields to kill the protoss units though? I thought it was only storming a dmatrixed unit that ignored shields.

storm only regenerates shield if it is between 30 and 65%.

Everything BisuDagger said is wrong, actually. I did some research and storm does not behave in this manner, regardless if you use 30-65% shields, full shields or a D-matrix-ed unit.
You should actually do some tests before you spew nonsense.
