Still is not something easy to do when you are dropping in 2-3 at the same time and pushing with your army other place. | ||

I like to see it and it's a good thing that drop is strong, but it should be something that you can punish if you play it well enough. | ||

Leenock one of the best zergs in the world winner of 2 MLGs and last IPL gets 3-0ed even when going muta play to counter the drops. I loved the crowed going "Boooooo" when Innovation boosted the low hp medivac and ran away from the mutas.... Leenock lost quite a lot of ZvT before the queen patch, he was schooled by Prime T, whereas Bogus made a splash in wol TvZ so it is to be expected to see him beat Leenock. | ||

Bomber is a great macro beast, but his control can sometimes be off and on. His drops were kinda bad, constantly dying mid flight, or dropping into waiting zerglings. Polt, Innovation and to a lesser extent, Flash, they keep track of multiple drops. Position themselves where zerglings can only have a small attack area behind mineral lines, and most importantly, pick-up when they're about to get overwhelmed. That's not minimal micro. That's no shift queue commands. And to the joker who said, injects, overlord spread and managing lings is more micro intensive... well, even the top zergs admit that its a bit easier to control (NOT MASTER, CONTROL!) zerg. Hence foreigner zergs actually having a chance against top Koreans. Yes that was in WoL, they havn't said that in HotS so you're talking about a dated game. | ||

Thats the problem with zergs right now - the best ones played little of HotS and lack strategic sense while the not-so-good ones understand meta-game but fall in execution. | ||

I'm convinced if someone as talented as Leenock just made a couple of spines at his bases and some corrupters, like Gowser did versus Bomber, he would be able to defend against this style much better than Gowser did. We don't know yet, but I really think that Leenock needed more static defense. He barely had any, and when Terran see Mutas, he usually responds with like 2 Turrets per base, and maybe even more in the main base, why shouldn't Zerg do the same? They just didn't get used to the new Medivac and Infestor being nerfed a lot. Innovation really outplayed Leenock in these games, Leenock didn't look that good actually.

Don't think he had the money to sac 8 drones and 800 minerals to just protect one expansion. No, you don't... You are not making Spines to completely destroy the units, but to deflect the attack and/or delay it so that your lings arrives on time before he take down your Queens/Buildings/Drones. | ||
