Like how zergs cried about the early game so queens got buffed. The early game was stupid though for zergs. I mean there was probably a 11/11 for every TvZ series.

What's the point of LR threads if not for bitching? It's the only reason I participate. enjoying the games? seeing/commentating on good plays? eagles? Only eagles the rest of what you said is outright wrong. so awkward when someone is so wrong

Pointing out everything that is awkward and calling what is not awkward awkward.

And Hellions so they got nerfed. And 2 rax so it got nerfed. And proxy rax before depot so it got nerfed. and 4gate so it got nerfed. And blink all in so it got nerfed. And the ability to hide tech so overlords got buffed. The list goes on...
Seriously, half the nerfs were based on Zergs complaining about the early game. Now there's barely any threat early game for them at all and they have an unbeatable late game army when they get to it.

They really need to change that entrance music "Big Bad Wolf" which Dreamhack are using every single time. Its the most ackward piece of music ive ever heard. Its not fitting at all. You need some epic entrance music not this.

A lot of that was so fucking deserved nerfs cmon..blue flame hellion anaheim, proxy rax before deport to just die, and nobody liked 4gate PvP or all in.
Also this unbeatable late game army is beaten a lot.
