I think the IT nerf is scaring people away from using them more than rendering them ineffective, from what I've seen.

yes, much reason. Only build 3queens. Non creep build, so you dont have creep. Not so hard to understand that you dont have creep if you dont dedicate money to it...

If you are gonna play around with roaches like that you need to dedicate money to it

Same. This tournament seems like it'd be excellent, if the stream wasn't on Twitch. It's about time they sorted their shit out in Europe.

Yeah, the 3-3 BC army is pretty much unkillable now, I suppose. You pretty much have to make 1000 corruptors and then Terran makes all marines and a-moves.


Gee, I wonder if that's the same as having to overmake viking/raven and then dieing to a mass ling or roach or ultra or anything ground switch

You have infestors still, they are good against all unit combinations so that sort of swap is not nearly as good as you make it seem, and getting 3-3 BCs is an ENORMOUS investment, like 3-4 starports with tech labs, then like 8 minutes to fully research 3-3 and then also the 300-200 cost of BCs and the supply. It's not easy, it's not even comparable to anything that a zerg would do since their tech swaps are much easier to do.

400-300. You don't tech switch to bc. You either play someone who refuse to attack or Metropolis.
Zest fanboy.
