i thought it was reasonable till i read "7 to 8 queens" and deemed it a huge waste of resources


did you not watch zero vs bisu?????

Zero did not suddenly produce 8 queens when he was still supposed to be producing drones.

8 queens? Seems like kinda a waste of gas... Who knows though!

I'd like to see a replay of this used at a high level of play though

Bisu vs Zero, same game people were just talking about.


Not exactly the same, but yeah.

10-11-12 mutas vs 8 queens and broodling. Almost the same gas cost.
mutas pros and cons :
INfinite fire amount, mobile, deadly when stacked, but fragile, worse when stacked to a storm and archons.
queens :
Can parasite archons, mobile, can cast either parasite or ensnare (when upgraded), fragile but don't need to be stacked at all, broodling can be used only 1 time untill the energy restores.

I guess, it's safe to say against mass goons, sniping templars with mutas ain't a good idea... That's about it.

bumping because just recently there's an amazing replay uploaded on iccup's replay database. Z uses queens and takes the game in one fell swoop.
