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.


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.

Yeah man everyone that plays Zerg is just bad at the game, Terran and Protoss are all clearly superior players.

Looks like HerO's spirit of Warp Prism harrass moved on to Alicia.

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.

because they're now catching things they never use to. The 2 base Toss aggression builds are being scouted far more frequently than they used to. That little extra speed can make the difference in catching everything, and not seeing what you need to.

Ret is frustrating to watch. Mistakes in every game and it seems wins mostly either thanks to a huge advantage or broodlords.

Oh come on Ret, attacking with Lings/Hydras/Infestors/Corruptors? No Brood Lords whatsoever?

Please don't throw this away like you do sometimes.

Because that's what I said right?

Did you miss the part of Ret v Puzzle where he had like ten roaches next to a nexus with about 100 health? When he just smashed himself against the forcefields during Alicia's attack on Shakuras? Clearly those are just stupid mistakes that, if he actually exerted the basic micro/decision making that the other races are expected to do, would make him look much better.

They should of always been scouted. Any good zerg player will have two overlords which even in slow overlord days would scout 2 base allin. Plus a ling at the third helps too.
