I believe (I don't play Zerg, but I watch a lot of games) that Lings and Banes are terrible vs Widow Mines, so you need the gas for Roaches that would go into Mutalisks. Also Mutalisks are bad vs Widow Mines too.

I've thrown away that game. Shouldn't have taken the fight on the highground without my vipers.


Very cool from steph to share his thought during the games, so that we discover HOTS at the same time as him :D

Sigh... widow mines

Forgot about Widow Mines. Poor Zerg :/


You can do mutas with overseers. You just have to babysit them like a terran bio-army vs wol infestors.

HoTS is still very new, not even properly released yet. Once we have a large number of games played after release, imbalances can be redressed. This tournament is at a time where the various competitors have differing levels of play-time of HoTS because they have still been playing WoL. Stephano and others will improve when they gains the experience of timings/map-specific tactics in this expansion.

Zerg winning = zerg hate, zerg losing = zerg hate. Seems like these threads have just become zerg bashing sprees over the last 6 mos.
Might have something to do with swarm of zergs balance whining. Reminds me of 2010 and early 2011 LR threads...

Terran hate back then has never been on the same level as zerg hate now. Although the Terran domination back then was way bigger then the Zerg one ever was.

How was zerg domination lower than terran's one?
Did you see foreign terrans beating top koreans zergs repeateadly?
Zerg got the most GSL wins and some absurd cash winning in 2012, it's not even funny.


To be honest though we don't have many "good" foreign terrans at the top level of play :p


And why is that? Are terrans inherently harder for foreigners to play?



Terran is harder to play at a pro level period. was the same in bw, same in sc2


Why do people still play terran then i wonder ? More easy to play other races after all in both games.

Because of Flash, MKP, Mvp, Fantasy, etc, etc?


that is perhaps how you would start yeah by trying to play like your hero's but if other races are clearly more easy people who wanted to make money should all change races rather then keeping a silly dream up.

Not really since you won't gain that much more money anyways, whatever your race, being a foreigner who isn't Stephano.

stephano should try ling bane into ultra, macro games with roach infesters are pretty meh vs 3+ base terran...


I could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure Lings and Banes are dead in ZvT because of Widow Mines... Mines are too good versus Lings and Banes for those units to be viable.



I think it just makes ling bane muta a lot more micro intensive, you always have to be scouting with a few lings ahead of the main army, as well as having a few overseers with the mutas. With 10 mutas you can snipe a mine before it goes off


You can't fight the terran army though. If you send in a couple of lings ahead, the marines will kill the lings before the mines detonate.

i feel that widow mines really shut down variety for zerg, at least attack vs air should be removed so that terran can not safely go 3 CC with minimal defenses


I agree

Reapers, hellions, mines harass would be strong, but no anti air. So, zerg could answer by going mutalisks and harass the hell out of the greedy terran.

Hum, I can kinda agree too. Terrans have their turrets and marines to defend from mutas, so they don't necessarily need widow mines too.


The super speedy mutas make it very hard for even stimmed marines to catch them.
