Are we allowed to talk about balance in old expansions without fear of reprecussion on TL?

I don't think that their play or skill stagnated per say, but I do think that they aren't used to a meta where they can't forsake units throughout until a push is coming, and tech all the way to hive and be nearly invulnerable to Terran timings.

I think that the "extreme" nature of the Zerg playstyle is coming back to bite them right now though. Either they were playing heavy economy/tech style backed by Queens, or they were switching to an extreme pressure/heavy all in when they sensed a Terran was playing greedy. Their defenses are vulnerable in the mid game now, and most of their "instantly switch to Roach/Bane and run over the Terran base while he's trying to keep up with my economy and not teching" has been wiped out by the Siege Tank research buff and Widow Mines. I think once they find the middle ground in the new expansion, much like it was prior to the Queen patch, they'll be fine.
