I noticed that in the last two games Ret had a 25-30 (avg) pop advantage for most of the game but he always seemed to have less units and his economy didn't seem to be better than Alicia's. Why is that? Roaches inflate population. e.g. a roach cost about half as much as a stalker but has the same supply (2). | ||

Why is that? Roaches aren't that supply effective. They take up a lot of it and Ret probably had more drones. | ||

Why is that? Probably because most zerg units are less valuable per supply compared to protoss. | ||

Whereas sure, Stephano would still be favored against Ret, but MC vs Alicia could be close at least! Though BO7 can be a bit much for PvP sometimes... it isnt over yet,gve ret some slack. zvz finals incoming!! | ||

Why is that? He has more workers so his army seems small despite being up in supply. Also roaches are balanced by being cheap in cost but expensive in supply. | ||

I noticed that in the last two games Ret had a 25-30 (avg) pop advantage for most of the game but he always seemed to have less units and his economy didn't seem to be better than Alicia's. Why is that? Roaches cost 75 Minerals 25 Gas and take up 2 Supply. Stalkers cost 125 Minerals 50 Gas and take up 2 Supply. Roaches are extremely supply inefficient. A very broad and general rule of thumb is to consider roach "1" supply. So if a Zerg has 150 Supply and 30 Roaches then consider the Zerg as having 120 Supply. Once again -- this is a very broad and very general rule of thumb and not intended to be perfectly accurate. | ||
