On a more serious note: They need to up the rate at which units go in/out of a nydus worm. They aren't really viable for true play because if you only build one it's so hard to get your army out before the enemy kills it, and vice versa for retreating. And as you have pointed out multiple nydus is so expensive you can't do it unless you are bm'g and way ahead. Increasing the unit throughput would make the nydus a more useful tool.


Thats why people opt for drops - although its much harder to spot a nydus than 15 overlords moving across the edges of the map..

A better way to BM is to make 50 overseers and poop changelings all over their stuff - and also send in all your workers to fight rofl

Does the game still crash if you build 20 Nydus Worms?

Better: make nyduses on your creepspread spelling out LoL and then save up enough that you can spell LOL in nydus worms in their base. This would take 16 nydus networks to execute completely, or you could do 8 and hope you could finish the thing before they destroyed it.

What what in the fuck fuck?

So you're assuming someone has either

1. Enough nydus worms already made
or
2. enough money AND time to build said nydus worms?

sounds useless, although funny if it were like a 4v4 with your friends...

Can't wait to do this on the ladder now haha, has a real zerg feeling to it when all the worms pop up in someones base at the same time, along with a swarm of zerg units. :D

Have not tried this but can you use a teammate's nydus worm? That would actually be really cool if one player builds a fast nydus and all other build mass zerglings and then 2 nydus at each of your opponent's bases...

I dont really see the point of BM'ing some1 on the ladder, a guy who I probably wont face again anyways...

Can be fun in tourneys, because there is also a big audience watching, and entertainment value goes way up, so does the notoriety of the player. In your own games : what's the point?

Nope you can't.

But what you can do is Neural Parasite a probe, build mass collossus, put collossus into the nydus network, and nydus the opponent's main.

Suddenly, LAZOR BEAMS coming out a FRICKIN SPACE WORM.

Awesome, isn't it? I have replays of this if you want BTW.

The point is that sometimes you're angry after being cheesed 10 times in a row and you just want to kill your opponent with a spoon while taunting him to let off steam :p.

I think that's a part of the reason why people are doing it. If they had to play the same player again you'd know he'd just lift his buildings and float them to ever corner of the map every time you meet.

YOU CAN'T NYDUS BM AFTER A DECISIVE VICTORY AFTER WHICH THE OPPONENT WILL HAVE LEFT. IT MUST BE PREPARED (BUILDING TIME FOR EACH NYDUS AND THE RESOURCE COST) WE NEED SOMETHING LIKE MULES (5, E, CLICK). IN HotS, MASS BLINDING CLOUD OR SOMETHING ^_^

Some people aren't nice on the ladder. Those are the people you humiliate if you can.

You still have to steer with cruise control.
The moment you lose confidence in yourself, is the moment the world loses it's confidence in you.
