Its very very good and the only person I've ever seen try to counter it properly is HerO a lot of storm drops so that eventually the zerg does get starved out and they can't just make spinecrawlers. The other thing is its so so so strong O.O So scary. | ||

Yeah, other Zergs have done this before in ZvP. Seal has done it a few times in Code A. But first time I've seen a Zerg actually push his spine forest into his opponent's base. | ||

The zerg never had the bank to make 90 spinecrawlers, like zero did, and could never really hold onto a 5th base. zvp needs more stuff like that! and these dudes with their fabled reaction times and multitasking should be leading the charge! Reaction times and multi tasking mean nothing if you don't know the game.... Give them sometime(Escpially since they are practicing two games at once right now..) to learn the basics of the game, the meta game etc. then you will start to see them be bale to use their skills to the fullest. Right now they are trying to grasp the basics, learn the builds and crap. | ||

People have been doing the gum up the middle of the map with spines while getting broods out maneuver on certain maps for...months? Or something like that. Not this crazily, and not usually offensively, but still. And if Stork had started warp prism harass like...before he lost his army he could have abused Zero's immobility to death, right? Right? | ||

Tho soon they will  then u watch out | ||

The other thing is its so so so strong O.O So scary. I've seen mass spines used for defense or splitting the map in half. But I haven't seen some one late game push with a mass of spines before O.o it's very possible It's happened often and I've missed it, haven't been able to catch a lot of games recent;y but def a first for me to see! | ||
