Frustrating to watch & play. What annoys me is zerg players constantly say abuse the mobility of Broodlord Infestor, but as a Terran player it looks impossible as broodlords although slow just fly over deadspace (unlike Terran mech where Mobility does lose you games). Also Infestors are pretty quick to move around and it looks like with Fungal it removes any chance to attack and get out before you got fungalled and lose everything. I have honestly no idea what they can do to stop Broodlord Infestor being so powerful in HoTS, but I hope to god something changes. PvZ is horrible. | ||

It's just too much control, give them an attack like the guardian that doesn't spawn free units on the ground. | ||

It's really not that Terrans/Protosses don't try to abuse BL/infestor/corruptor's immobility issues, it's that you actually fucking can't when a competent Zerg will throw up walls of spines and spores everywhere. Especially on a map like Daybreak -.- | ||

I think they both played a great game, and that Dark is quickly becoming a player to be respected. The problem is that if zerg gets up to his broodlord/infestor army, the entire game up until that point is irrelevant. It doesn't matter how many bases either player has or how much damage they've done, it will all come to down to a single vortex. | ||

Hero harrased for a long time, but dark defended it pretty good so he took some damage but not too much. Then hero just rolled over and died. And you wonder why people thought this was silly? | ||

It's really gotten to the point where you can skip to the 14 minute mark when Hive tech pops out, and you can play the game out from there. | ||

With the addition of Swarmhosts (more free units) I really hope they make a change like that. broodlords would still be strong, but not ridiculous. Ah well, time to wait for Blizzard to feel happy with their newer units and take a look at WoL problems. These next few months are going to be super important for SC2 and super exciting. | ||
