Not really, but you can't really tell if the zergs are losing because zerg is weak or if they're losing because they're playing wrong. It might take longer for some races to figure out actual good builds and strategies than others, that doesn't mean there's a flaw in the race, just gonna have to wait and see

Probably because they don't have millions of dollars.

If you were any good, the guys with the millions of dollars would hire you.

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.
For me, the game lost its "Guild Wars" charm. the PvP structure is extremely dull at release (hell where's is the "Guild Wars"). The PvE variability is extremely limited. What I enjoyed the most with GW1 is the amount of builds possible. I love making new builds, testing them and sharing them. With Guild Wars 2, it's just not the same anymore...

From what I've seen, the Zergs keep throwing away Swarm Hosts for nothing and almost never have any effective plays with Vipers. That's quite a few resources dumped for almost no return.
On top of that, mechanics and decision making does seem to suffer a bit when the players are trying to incorporate the new units into their play on-the-fly.

Think it pretty much comes down to swarm hosts playing completely differently from lurkers (you want to mass them, support them), whereas widow mines are still used the way spider mines were & the mothership core isn't exactly a complex unit.

as always haha but still a pretty sick harass.

LOL, Zerg looks just sad. And people want Infestors nerfed...

I have very positive thoughts and hopes for Hots, despite what pros are saying, the game does change a lot. It's just a matter of balancing, which obviously won't be perfect for release.. WoL isn't even fully balances yet.

can someone tell me the cost of oracle? im not very inside HOTS

The way zerg currently play in WoL it's impossible. They actually have to get defense. Keep in mind too that that's like 1200 gas invested for protoss, maybe just go kill him

It's not that Blizzard now can't get the job done. Yes, they can, but in a very mediocre way and has very mediocre results. It's a bunch of professional clerks but nothing more. People keep saying Blizzard is not the Blizzard anymore. I don't agree with them since many old people are still there but it's just in general they are turning into something very mediocre and uninspiring.

Nice use of the Time Warp on that Swarm Host. Your free units are... delayed.
