when exactly was zerg the best race in the beta!?

Errr you don't remember when mass roach > all?


Um no. Mass roach was indeed strong in >LATE GAME< the problem here is that Zerg doesen't make it to >LATE GAME< most of their games, due to their extremely weak early game and early-mid game. (Numerous factors play to this.)

Zerg was never ''strong'', T and P just learned how to abuse their strenghts better against Zerg, that's all. Dimaga may have made Zerg look strong, but he always seemed one step ahead of everyone else and is an extremely skilled player. (Like IEM EU showed.)

Anyways, yeah, lack of Zergs is getting sad. =[] But what can you do?

Anyways, tuned in most of the games, been enjoying most of the games, Machine played exceptionally well.

Yep, changing the Roach supply to 1 was a very critical mistake. Back then, Zerg was the best race in the endgame while sucking at all points before(how it should be). Now Zerg is merely able to compete in the lategame after being completely useless for the first 10-15 minutes. It really was a bad change.

i think its ridiculous how when zerg was the strongest race and terrans/protoss refused to do anything creative(apart from a few good seeds like Jinro with his reaper into ghost opening which as effective as it was for some reason everyone else refused to implement) and all that happened was a million patches that nerfed zerg over the course of a few months. Now zerg is told to "use nydus" for half a year and no end to this insanity is in sight.


I agree its funny how terran/protoss were complaining and all that and like you said zerg to nerfed hardcore and now its opposite and terran/protoss's are telling zergs to be more creative when they couldn't do it themselves? Hypocrisy at its best

Although I feel Artosis did play pretty bad against drewbie he never really transitioned or anything and losing all those mutas in that last game was bad let alone letting drewbie kill 4 bases before stomping the army. It wasn't balance that lost Artosis the game it was his playing.

i didnt see the match but there is very little you can do to stop marauders from killing ur hatcheries. You have to pretty much take mapcontrol during early midgame and keep it throughout. Depending on the map of course. But hard, very hard.
Funny, however, seeing all this marauder mobility vs zerg immobility when it is we, zerg, who are supposed to abuse terran immobility.
What?

Seriously - tourney should just enforce free wins and stop making the players look like bad guys for deciding to re or take free wins. This is the same thing as Tesla's tourney. LS opponents, take the wins, otherwise it just lets him get a free re-game every series.

Just take the win Kiwi. This is pretty bad.


Edit: how does the 2 minute rule effect re-game?

solution for this is so simple most of the times. dust of your gfx card fan, get a new fan for 4$, configure the fan speed in catalyst control center etc...

While it is absolutely hilarious to see Artosis rage out of game via avenues like state of the game podcast, it is completely terrible to see him rage in a tournament game like this. He is a fucking GOM employee now. Fucker has to man up and say GL HF followed by silence until GG.

Learn some manners, artosis.

Drewbie is 100% correct in talking back. He gets thrashed on by IdrA and Artosis all the time. I didn't see the games, but judging from reading this thread, Artosis played like shit.


P.S. I am a zerg player

idra and artosis just love crying together every night about siege tanks and reapers.

If players drop before two minutes in game there will be a re-game. But after the second time it's def win. Suppose after two minutes, the opposing player can choose to take the def win.

I'd take the free win every time btw, don't understand why people don't.

He drops multiple times in every tournament he enters. That, plus his history of cheating, makes me wish people would just start taking free wins from him.
