The problem with them is how high the gamble is - which is they rarely keep the game at an even pace; it usually very quickly goes in favor of one of the players (either the defender or the attacker) with little chance to continue the game. cool you are able to micro voidrays...the thing is..what about the other things you are doing while microing like a god? can you do that without a problem ?  | ||

Any zerg always loves to see hellions getting eaten before they can kill the mineral line though. :p On September 27 2010 21:04 JinDesu wrote: When you play zerg, you leave the statue up so the banelings can suicide into it. Is this trolling, or is that a great splash damage trick? | ||

if they are charged up and ur enemy hasn't sufficient anti air it's over within seconds. while it changes completely if your enemy is aware of the fact your going void rays, they'll build the proper counter and it's almost always successfully countered, thus toss losing the game. don't know why so many players still favor them : /, such a crappy unit design imo, without charge utter crap for it's immensly high cost, with charge too good to be true | ||

no, it's just stupid without any strategical sense whatsoever. I remember raging after losing one game because my colossi would first attack the statue instead of hydra/ling army. You can also accidently blow up your banelings on it. | ||

So you lost because you were worse. No excuses not destroying it first. And since banelings can hit it a good player run around it to make them hit it. Anything that makes sc2 harder and more complicated is good. | ||

A large army of marines ran into his main and killed his hive and spire as he was dealing with another drop at his second base. He got ultras out, but not enough, not fast enough. Game 2 - Check lost to drops. Ran 30 zerglings into a corner where marines were walling off hellions, his army got decimated. Lost his natural to the marines All he had left was a few zerglings, 10 banelings, a queen or 2. Marines owned everything else. On September 27 2010 21:21 bRuTaL!! wrote: Theyre great.

Only nubs do that, right? | ||
