I think putting the reactor for terran is a better choice than MULE

It's already in bw. It's just (almost) worthless. You really shouldn't need this spoiler to get the joke, but lest I be misunderstood...

the most imba ability if put in SC1 is not even on the poll. It's the unit AI, tanks and scourge wouldn't overkill anymore. Auto surround etc.

Queen, especially in ZvP. Protoss will need 4 cannons to fast expand. Zerg can then take 4-5 bases easily b/c the protoss will over commit to defense.

Queen is the same as having another hatchery. All it does is save 150 minerals. It would have next to no effect on SC1 if it was there.

150 mineral difference is huge when it comes to exponential economy growth, extra drones are produced more quickly, which mine more minerals, which allows more production, etc
and since hatcheries are also the zerg's production building - that's like 40% off the cost of gateways or factories or barracks
this results in all the zerg's attack timings being so much faster - and their expansions as well, since they can save minerals on all the no longer necessary extra hatcheries in their bases.




Actually I think Queen/injecting larva as unfair in SC1 is exaggerrated by people who have limited understanding. In Broodwar, Z is forced to make another hatchery if it wants more production capabilities. This prevented Zerg from doing 1 base all-in aggressive plays like Protoss or Terran could like 5 gate goon PvZ, 4 rax sunken break etc. because they could stay in 1 base and create multiple production facilities, while Z has to pay more money for increased unit production (hatchery = 350, gateway/rax = 150) and their units are more fragile so the fact that each hatchery offers 3 larva barely compensates. If Z was forced to build another hatchery for more unit production, it almost always makes more sense to simply expand while you're doing that since it can't hurt you. Not to mention that scouting the number of hatcheries was a much more valuable scouting information than simply scouting a Terran going building factory, since he can go dual ports for heavy vessel usage, or increase factory and mass tanks, etc. Basically, Im saying that Z's meta-game is heavily restricted by the playstyle centered around hatcheries and this helps Zerg be more flexible race since, in my view, they were incredibly inflexible in broodwar

I think having a worker that can bring in minerals 6 times the speed of your usual workers available so early in the game gives you superior economy and should not be in SC1 ever. Warp gates are almost as imbalanced in SC1 due to the degree to which they could be abused for early aggression

you are talking about "people who have limited understanding." I read what you wrote and I see you belong to the "people who think they knows when they actually don't know".
hatchery = 350, gateway/rax = 150
hatchery is 300
the fact that each hatchery offers 3 larva barely compensates
hatchery offers one larva at a time, but you can save them maximum amount of 3
If Z was forced to build another hatchery for more unit production, it almost always makes more sense to simply expand while you're doing that since it can't hurt you.
this is not true at all. you expand when you know you can defend the bases. it's not even close to "almost".

I don't understand the poll. If I get Chrono boost does the Z get Queens?

If you only add 1 abillity and the other races stay the same, chrono boost is the most imba one for sure. Early lots vs Z, early goons vs T. The timing would be so good with 50% faster production, it's not even a competition.

What a great way to refute my argument by using Ad Hominem attacks

Hatchery is 350 sir, 300 + the cost of the drone. It's actually more than 350 because the loss of the drone's mining time but we'll play safe & nice and just say its 350.

Your point about hatchery offering one larva at a time actually helps my argument more because you just aided my point about hatchery's inferiority unable to compensate for the lack of production buildings.

I'm saying that by building another hatchery for increasing unit production, its ideal to place it where your expo will be because you can create another expo that way at the same time as increasing unit production.

instead of the infested terran being a terran that somehow shotting the same rine gun does less damage and cannot move at all. t-t it actually would be a better skill if it would just consume all your energy and spawn as many as possible all at once instead of taking 2 mins to waste your energy on them. Or make them spawn in groups of like 5 or 10
