I think hellion banshee just doesn't cut it anymore . Tank opening with fast grades and fast medivacs is the future, but then there is creepspread..

Roach Hydra is pretty good and very viable actually. Zergs just always call Hydra's bad and refuse to use them so it became common "knowledge" that Hydras are bad.


Same way that every Zerg will tell you that if they don't get free 3 base full saturation they are ages behind.

It's because Mvp's build doesn't account for Hydras. It relies on having map control with Banshee/Hellion, which is bad vs Roach/Hydra.

I am not sure if this is Mvp not being used to such play or zergs actually exaggerate how bad hydras are.

Yes they may be bad in comparison to winfestors but not so bad to be useless, it seems.

it's the same reason why 10-11:00 speedroaches are insanely strong. Every terran opens hellion + banshee, and zergs just know how to defend vs it. If you follow that up with a good roach / roach-hydra/roach-queen timing, you can win straight away.

I can't help but to see this as another zerg beating a terran. At least the usage of Hydra's makes it kinda cool.

Its kinda map dependent, and it takes advantage of the queen buff so there is more creep spread.
On top of that, with the recent infestor nerfs (and blizz says more are coming) zergs are looking at other ways to take advantage of better defense/creep coverage instead of spines infestors and brood lords, so hydras are coming into fashion. I wonder if it'll stick.
