He didn't outeconomy a mechanised terran, so it made sense his casters didn't have the army to backup direct hits with blinding cloud

Swarm Hosts seems especially bad in ZvT, but decent in ZvP when using them for contains.

To be fair, Effort didn't really look like he knew what he was doing. It seemed more like "let's make a few of these new guys and send them across the map" than having an actual underlying strategy.

Last season there was only 1 zerg player in the top 25 of GM. Pretty astounding to me, especially in contrast to WoL.

From what D3 and HOTS have turned out, it is obvious that now Blizzard is lead by a bunch of clerks but not innovative designers. All the creative guys left. Such as the Riot guys or GW2 guys. Sigh.

One caster was "Oh!"-ing a lot at the Swarm Hosts - was he suffering from that weird experience some people have with seeing such things? (like, organisms coming out of the backs of other organisms)

HotS looks so damn good now, wish they'd start mass-expanding the beta and follow Valve's suit (it only increases interest!)

People keep saying this. So it's for some odd reason only the Zergs 3 days in a row who have no idea what they're doing, everyone else is a HotS expert with fully developed builds?

The SC2 and D3 teams have nothing to do with each other. And this expansion is still months away from release. Chillax.

I would imagine after BWC we will hear a lot more about HOTS, blizzard trying to hype there own WOL event up and not releasing a lot of beta invites/info at makes sense.

There are a ton of people who 'figured out' terran hots mech & protoss play with the new mothership core (which is about all the protoss players are adding in). Not as much with zerg (and the units aren't as straight forward).

Yeah, call me bitter nerd, I don't care. It's just I think even me can do much better jobs than them, even though 99.9% of the people won't believe.

The new Z units are a little less intuitive and more complex in their use than the others. Show me a Tempest or an Oracle or a Widow mine and I know at least generally what I should be doing with them straight away.

Then go do it. If you can, you're guaranteed to make millions of $. Plenty of people are waiting for something better; there's a reason no one else is doing it.

GW2.... my most disappointed game so far.. You call that innovative? I was a loyal fan of GW1, preordered GW2 the first day it's available, played all 3 betas.... now at lv10. That game excluded everything good about GW1... and added everything of conventional MMOs...

Eh, I have 250 hours in GW2 and still haven't gotten bored yet. I personally loved the game.
