Swarmhost/hydra/corruptor really strong vs robo play


I haven't seen any decent Swarmhost play.


Ret vs MC Daybreak yesterday


MC was playing really terrible.

Viper on the other hand is playing a really good role in HotS.

I haven't seen any legit Swarmhost play and that is disappointing.


You may not see it in IEM but you will see it hopefully MLG was going to say IPL then remembered canceled... The next big event after MLG I guarantee swarmhost will be common zvp. Swarmhost is so powerful if used properly which most zergs don't' at least not at IEM. I didn't see ret games so I can't comment on his but sounds like MC played bad.

Roach/hydra is bad imo so It'll be the normal composition and mutalisks to obviously.


I hope we see swarm hosts aswell, I have no idea how to use them so it will be good to witness some high level play,

I have to disagree about roach, hydra it can be a formidable midgame army and you extend its usefulness with vipers, it used to be zerg had to go corrupter with this composition and that never felt good but vipers really provide a viable composition.
Yes Mutalisks still good too =). I just think ZvP has a wide variety of different midgame options for zerg now which is a good trade off for the insanely strong late game army being nerfed so hard.


You'll see roach/hydra is absolute garbage now that protosses remember how to play verse it. Just wait roach/hydra will disappear again as it's just not good. Swarmhost will be standard and mutalisks as well.
When I think of something else, something will go here

Seems like Ret is the only one hope left in that bracket. And actually he showed some zerg HotS plays during group stage.

What on earth is Stephano doing...

He just threw away like 10 Ultras without doing pretty much anything

If Stephano takes control he can beat Parting no problem. Parting's someone you have to throw off his game. He's very vulnerable against zergs who do that. If he's allowed to dictate the pace of the game he almost always wins.

Other than that, hoping for Ret, Dream & Mana

What the fuck he wasted half armies fighting against a full army way too many times -_-.

Not stephano's day.

Edit: Or he was just so rich that he could do it. That and parting's composition was bad.

As a zerg player I still enjoy cheering more for an underdog than what we had at the end in WoL.

Why not let PartinG sack a base then surround with lings, ultras an infestors?
Education should be our seniors guiding us to be "who" we want to be, not "what" we want to be.
