Am I the only one that reckons zerg requires no micro?

Terran has to work their ass off to marine spilt, target banes and not get surrounded by lings. While zerg is just a-moving their blings? I mean a-move will make the lings auto surround as well.

Dunno, not impressed with revival, it was ensnare doing all the micro moves while zerg was attack moving the whole game.

No you're not. LosirA actually said he chose Zerg because they're the "a-move" race. ^^

ah okay so i am only hallucinating when i have to:

Send Lings/Blings/Roaches/Infestors/Mutas from various different angles into the battle, paying attention to that Ling/Roach are first
Dont let my roaches clump because tanks own them
Make sure Banelings hit Marines and not Marauder/Thor/Tanks
Fungal with Infestors and move them back
Dont EVER let my mutas clump
Bonus: Inject or you will lose your next fight

And all that at the same time. Screw one up and you lose the fight or even the game. (Of course only if armies are equal)

zerg is still the most a-move friendly race in the game. sometimes protoss goes on par with them but most of the time toss can't a-move.

doesn't mean zerg mechanically takes less skill to play. actually requires more of that imo.

Actually if you have tried to a-move a gigantic clump of banes and zerglings into marine-tank and watched all of your banelings die while the Marines just run back, you'd know that you have no idea what you're talking about

EDIT: Well last sentence saves

? did I say one could a-move entires armies into tank death traps? I said *in general* zerg can a-move with less hassle than other races; doesn't mean you can always a-move and into the ridiculous situation you're painting up.

It's by far the most common ZvT situation which is the only matchup where Z can even think about a-moving, doing it vs P is certain death. Sigh I shouldn't bother.

Ace has a really really scary-looking army, I think that he is at an advantage right now. He most likely has a max-timing attack planned out or something like that. he's apparently switched into Immortal production instead of colossus because of the roach trheat. Fruitdealer is upgrading better and getting banelings, feels like banelings bombs.

ZvZ is the a-move matchup lol. Just have bigger army and better upgrades and a-move on! Losing? pull back then try again.

Pretty much.

As for ZvT obviously you have to keep in mind the positioning/composition and size of the terran army (like every other race...) and then you can just A-move. Why? Because the necessary tools to break marine-siege tank requires next to no micro.

ZvZ is almost entirely based on positioning and infestor micro nowadays. Also ling bane wars.

The grass always seems greener on the other side; other races look easy when you get stomped by them on ladder. If you get stomped by toss, it's an a-move deathball. If you get stomped by zerg, it's a-move roaches.

So fun when people who don't know how zerg works comment on how to fight as zerg XD

You do your a-move into seige tanks, please stream it as well so we can see your banelings run into tanks, it's hilarious.

The tool to breaking a small marine-seige tank push is great baneling micro. The tool to breaking a big marine-seige tank push is great baneling micro and great mutalisk micro at the same time, while the only thing the terran has to do is split marines.
