i think you're underestimating what losira is doing but why does it matter anyways?


thats what im asking, can you point out what losira is doing thats good so i can appreciate him more, because i can never see what zerg does that is wholely defining of their skill, but for terrans its obvious from how well they split in engagements, protoss with blink and shit too, but zerg has nothing really defining that i can look at and go "holy shit, that guy is good"

inject


I guess, but you dont see injects and its hardly inspiring, only problem with that is stephano seems to be the guy with the most stuff all the time and he says that his injects are his worse aspect of his play. I guess im the only one that doesnt find remaxing as a zerg very impressive? :S

Just because you as a viewer, who doesn't understand zerg, doesn't find it impressive doesn't mean that it isn't.


but its just mechanics, injects arent quite as make or break as a marine split or blink micro, i mean injects arent particularly hard, i guess for me zerg just lack the wow factor as a spectator, theyre fun to play but i never feel amazingly impressed by any zerg players when i watch them play, but i was when i first saw mkp marine split and hero with his crazy warp prism play, i hope HotS brings more spectator eye candy for the zerg race

o_O
You never played zerg did you. Injects define the number of larvae you have, thus your capacity to (re)max asap the good units comp against what your opponent does. Injects are CRUCIAL for any zerg player. It's the most important part of the zerg gameplay.

And if think it's easy, well, be my guest and go play zerg and do better than all those pro's who have full energy queens after the 20 min mark ^^

And the third game btw Losira & Taeja is just about as good as the previous two, make them play a bo7 plz

If only taeja would fucking get hunter seeker missiles

It's a spectator sport though.


So? if you are sophisticated watcher you can appreciate it, if not you don't. I honestly don't see where this conversation is going, zerg need to be nerfed because injects aren't fun to watch for people who don't understand the game?


I didn't say I didn't understand the importance of spot on injects, I'm saying it doesn't make the games better to watch.

It's like saying boxing is made more impressive because I know the boxers are really good at skipping a rope.

Interesting choice from Losira to go bling/muta in the first 2 games then picking a massive map for the ace and rushing Blords

He should still be building some ravens if not BC's right now. There is absolutely no reason for him to not add some ravens right now with his bank. It would be so good. a few BC's would be useful too with +3 air attack.

Well if a zerg doesn't hit his injects, then zerg doesn't have an economy or an army so they kinda do make the games better to watch.

I don't see how taeja can possibly lose this unless he loses all his production, he can just keep throwing armies at losira and it won't even matter if it's cost effective or not

Yes, this is why it's surprising for me that Worms aren't used more by zergs. Considering they have both defensive and offensive uses. I guess it's too big of an investment, but I still find it weird.
