Replay proof, that this particular b.o. was perfectly necessary...

A pure counter to what the terran did, and was 2x gas trick.

I love how u think because u beat an 8rax that your build is now superior to anything thrown at you. Any good terran going 1rax CC will absolutely destroy you.

Not at all...

Zerg get 2 gas early because they are capable of actually spending their gas as opposed to terran.

Gas = Power

However... as far as minerals spent on army that has the most power in regards to least amount of gas spending...

Terran Infantry takes the cake.

LoL? I can spend my gas easily on 2 base... It is called tanks and vessels, What do you have on 2 gas that can actually beat me before i mass up enough units with my superior economy to beat you?

you fast expand and expect to spend gas effectively on VESSELS in a reasonable amount of time??

I will have, not only lurkers earlier...

But a MASS of lurkers earlier.

Actually I can outmacro and out micro any of the lurkers you decide to send at me, and with my superior economy, I can afford to lose units unlike you.

No, not because you're economy is better, but because you are terran, and have the most powerful mineral dominant, gas minimal, force in the game. (Infantry)

The scale of power between mutalisks and infantry is off...

And, let's be realistic, the lurker is truly the only unit in the game that doesn't have an attack while mobile. Like your convenient tank.

LOL? so now you are saying that terran is overpowered... what a joke, the reason actually is because my economy is far superior to yours, not because my race is the "most powerful mineral dominatnt, gas minimial force in the game" as you say.

The scale of power between my

1000 gas army whether it is lurker or mutalisk, compared to the power of your minimal gas army is a bit off.

Zerg desires to go muta because muta are mobile...

But then again, zerg desires to go lurker because it counters marine medic...

But then doesn't have an attack while mobile.

It's like a paradox of confliction.

It just means that the ultralisk is what zerg almost always strives for in zvt...going high gas off 2 base and in to ultralisk.

You have the mobility... but still have somewhat of a counter to infantry.

No the only paradox is going for your double gas trick and thinking you are actually going to win a long macro game. It actually confounds me how you actually believe that build is viable at all in a game that lasts over 10 minutes.

He was across the map from me and I still got lings off barely in the nick of time.

How could it ever NOT be viable?

Because he didn't go for a normal build, he went for an 8rax, do you even realize the diffrence between the builds I am talking about? Sure you can stop any cheese sent your way, congratulations, try using it against a build that isn't meant to cheese you, and you lose always, there is no way ur economy can keep up with someone who doesn't try to kill you in the first 3 minutes of the game

What does that even mean? You say one line and expect people to make sense of it when it actually makes no sense at all.

Non-zerg players? Are you for real? Maybe you should try to make sense before you start "explaining" stuff.

This thread is a joke, and OP is a troll. Don't even argue with him. None of what he's said makes any sense. Just let this thread die.
