Essentially. Was kind of weird to see Ryung just stay sieged and sit in them,

Blinding cloud is hard to see, but units under it is easy to see. Dark swarm is easy to see, but units under it is hard to see.
I wonder where the middle ground lies and what color is the best for it.

Ryung didn't seem like his head was really in that game... didn't really try to pressure at all, made 3 bunkers early on when Z wasn't even pushing, went bio/medivac bug didn't make any hellbats, let his siege tanks just sit in the blinding cloud for the entire duration during the first big engagement, and never made any vikings to counter the vipers after he saw them... oh well.

All ground units have range reduced to melee, while under ground. Your own units included. Fun. Fact: ultras have range of 1 and have a tougher time to reach enemies under cloud.

I wonder how much Heart has been playing the new game since he's not really in any more WoL competitions. *WoL

Ragnarok has been playing a ton of HOTS and he's currently one of the best 4-5 zerg players at HOTS, at least on ladder. I think he will probably all kill unless one of the protosses takes him out.

Does anyone know how good Alicia's PvZ is in HoTS? He beat some good P and T in that IPL6 qualifier but I don't think he played any zergs

Ultras have range 1 and it's longer thank else, its why they can attack from behind lings.

I think best solution would have spell change color depending on tileset.
if map was cloud kingdom, I dont think we would have this many comments
