You're an idiot if you think this was balance whine. Saying a matchup is hard isn't balance whine. | ||

Just cuz something isn't used that much doesn't mean it isn't potentially good. I base my opinions off hard facts, and I stay away from theorycraft shenanigans. Currently the way ravens have been shown points to them being useless tvz. Sure, they sound great in the ideal theorycrafter's scenario. Til top Korean pros utilize/show how to utilize them successfully the fact of the matter will be that they are not effective. Ultra/queen sounds good on paper - however I won't put any value to it until I see it actually succeed at the highest level of play possible. | ||

Maybe it is the rock paper scissor system of hatch first early pool and 14 gas 14 pool. I think its more the fact that it ends up being a roach/infestor vs roach/infestor battle a lot of the time. It feels a bit like a Zerg version of a 4gate | ||

And for defense well...... bases dont move fast. Check out TLO's upcoming and recently past games vs Zerg with Ravens. He uses it with a mech style more though, so it doesn't really count... | ||

If you wait on the Raven your opponent gets more free damage at the location they're attacking. I do agree a Raven with the main army is something that looks very likely to have to be implemented though, if Z continue to use burrow so effectively it's just going to become seriously cost ineffecient to not get one. Well, in this game only way Byun would have gotten a raven is if he had a 2nd starport. That's the thing most people don't realize. in this game, double medivacs > 1 raven because you have to support your main dmg army, which is the siege tanks. Ravens are useful, but you have to look at the situation Byun was in. he can't just magically create a raven out of thin air. | ||
