I really do think zergs could hold off that 2 reaper 2 hellion stuff with a single spine crawler. They're also good against mines too.

I actually really like the suggestion to make widow mines do friendly-fire damage. They're already exciting, but they would be even more with that change.

Kinda like spider mines in BW, BOOM good bye 6-tank clump :I


They already do friendly fire.

Only unit they don't damage is other mines.

Other friendly mines.

I don't even know if they don't damage your allies' mines in team games. Will be worth testing.

Note Yoda probably is very tired from jet lagg. I don't think he saw Ret's other games and would be in no position to comment on Ret's play.

You absolutely can't play muta/bling against what Yoda had.


have any better ideas? remember you also need to deal with speed medivacs. banelings with speed are great both vs hellbats and mines

I'm not a Zerg player so I can't say for sure. But from watching HyuN's stream a lot, Roach hydra into roach hydra viper seems to do very well against that kind of composition.

This is the dumbest post I've seen in a long time.


Why? Marines and thors dominate mutalisks already. All three aspects of mutalingbling get demolished by mines. Would make the old school TvZ's even better.


They can't just make mines not do damage to one specific unit. Maybe if they switch mines to ground only it would make Terran have to work a little harder against all air units since they already have marines and turrets that work very well anyways.

Just like they can't make spores do more damage against one specific unit?

I agree that they should be able to hit air...but your argument is pretty invalid.

My guess is that blizzard gave the WM an anti-air ability because mech sucks vs air. With an aa warhound, WM's could be anti-ground only and 1 supply.


Add in warhound but with the same stats as goliath (who wants to let a good model / voice over go to waste**).

1 supply ground only widow mines

I would love that.

i don't think mines being too strong were the problem that game. ret could have squeezed more out of his attack, which was a big gamble that didn't pay off. after that i think yoda was too far ahead anyways.

gj to ret though, super strong showing in groups even though it's still the beta. hope to see more of his zvp in the playoffs.

Just say Goliath, srsly.

I have to add that Goliaths are the coolest unit out there. Especially the sound of their AA rockets...

so funny how forum terrans defend themselves lol, every pro terran (even yoda 2 minutes ago) openly admit that terran is hugely favored against zerg right now and the mine is only one of the problems

Ohhhh, you care about lore. The only air units that Terran has problems with are massive air units. The mine only helps vs oracles and mutalisks.


What...? This has nothing to do with lore, it has to do with awful game design. If you make it so the widow mine can hit all air units except the Mutalisk, you're basically telling everyone "We wanted to buff the Mutalisk so it was used more, but the widow mine is too strong, so instead of looking into fixing the widow mine as a unit we're just going to make it so it can hit everything but Mutalisks so that people actually make them.

Christ I hope Blizz doesn't do something stupid to the mine, like require an armory...that would do nothing to their absolute raping of mutalingbling.
