75 drones at 10 minutes. I think he will start producing attacking units now and try to kill Protoss.

Maps in general are getting too zerg friendly.


Whoa there, careful, you could get knifed around here saying something like that.

Seriously though, I think overall balance is in a pretty good place, but I think top zergs are getting better at hitting their late-game injects and so things are shifting in their favor a bit.


Really? And the recent patches had nothing to do with Zergs quality play of late?


What do you mean by recent patches? The one with the queen buff? Because that has little to no effect in PvT.

Well, Zergs are scouting everything now. The speed buff onn overlords isn't talked about much but has made a huge difference.

Shhhh don't say it like that. We call it "figuring things out" around here.


Yeah it was funny after the infestor buff how Zergs everywhere were boasting about "figuring things out". When you plot out the patch changes to win-rates things suddenly become much more apparent.

Stephano beats MC on Shakuras = Protoss tears.
Alicia beats Ret on Shakuras = Zerg tears.

Pretty funny.


All i know is the bigger the map, the more Zerg favored it is.

Zerg has all the fast units plus creep spread gives them vision of all the map plus even faster units. they cover ground better then protoss and terran combined.

Actually late game big maps are pretty terrible for zerg.

That's a very simplistic way to see it. I would say that the pattern of the expands (especially the third) makes a lot more of a difference than size.
Protoss, can't live with em', can't kill em'.

The amount of whining about Zerg from Terran and Protoss in this thread is hilarious :D

Terran always had it easy us toss still have to watch this... :D


lol, that's actually pretty funny. I almost do wish the roles were reversed and it was all TvZ. I've been watching for like 6 hours, and I've seen 1 PvP and the rest were all PvZ.

It's karma after the Terran dominance in GSL.


Kind of a pity. Say what you will about GomTvT, but at least Terran play looked like it required skill to pull off. And TvT is actually a very cool matchup.

Wait until more zergs start doing basic micro things people like Stephano do such as flanks and focus firing. I miss the good old days when every zerg would smash himself against forcefields for no reason while 4 colossi hit them, when they made 80 drones before starting a single attack/armor upgrade, and when they would do all-in attacks versus protoss but just have their roaches/lings randomly spread their damage across seven buildings doing nothing.

I have always thought that there is a certain timing to when Zerg scouts with overlords to see 2 base allin. Around 6 minutes? Also, late game is pretty boring because most often zerg chooses spire and protoss is forced to counter with Mothership. Really not that much scouting there. And placing overlords to deny expansions has been around since the start of release (a little after at the most). Overlord speed change hasn't made THAT much of a difference.


But I'm curious as to why you saw its made a huge difference.

Yea the queen change has Terrans pretty boned right now, but it takes a long time for new things to get figured out. I think Terran can work it out given some more time. I'm more concerned about the roach/ling -> infestor -> broodlord path that is owning up ZvP right now, and I think better injects are bringing that strategy to a higher level and that an adjustment may be needed.

But of course I'm not GM player so my opinion is pretty irrelevant!

NASL and other tournaments need to understand the concept of pacing more.... I arrived there at 11 and the games are still going on.... It's insane. The crowd was all wild and hyped up but they fizzled out towards the end due to pure exhaustion. Too many games, too long breaks in between and too long of a day. Most concerts are like 4-5 hours long max, most sport games are even shorter! I don't know why they drag it out for so long, maybe it's part of their business model and agreements with sponsors, because they get 12 hours of highly targeted exposure of their products. By the end of Stephano vs MC half of the crowd filed out.

Why would they do any of these things when they can win just as well without them?
