Ahh now I feel nostalgic for the good old 2011 days where Nestea chased drops back and forth across shakuras plateau with his whole ling baneling army, July baneling busted any protoss who didn't respectfully build at least 3 cannons when forge expanding and there was a lovely cycle of Mvp >Polt> MMA which eventually came full circle when MMA started consistently beating Mvp. Also I miss sky terran, losira winning all the time despite losing his natural hatch to 2rax and PvP being the most rediculous thing ever.

I dont think people understand how good sOs is in here. He beat Innovation in a tournament very recently already (and beat Life in the finals). The GSL is definetely between sOs and Innovation

Hes just the Protoss flavour of the month. The best Protoss player changes every couple of weeks. I think it is cause there is a lot more luck involved in Protoss matches.


ROFL are you serious? sOs has been dominating proleague the entire season and showing solid gsl results for months.

Speaking of which, it's still only a matter of time before KeSPa takes over. It was always the logical thing as they had the money, power and regime. Obviously it's not like a complete takeover immediately like the whole Elephant, but it was clear that it would happen slowly and eventually.

If widow mines didn't exist Life could compete with Innovation for sure.

Funny, since Life has already figured widow mines out, right?

You can't figure out a 75/25 invisible unit that does devastating AOE and can be built two at a time -_-


Well, i'd say sacrificing a 25/0 .5 supply unit that can be built two at a time and then killing the 75/25 unit is pretty close to figuring it out

In theory it sounds great but when there are 10+ widow mines and units killing the kings before you can set them off it doesn't work so well. Thats why we are seeing so many Zerg all ins. It is frightening to face widow mines in the mid game. I am hopeful that people will mess with Swarm hosts a bit as they work well vs widow mines but I am not sure if they are viable.


Problem is that before (WoL pre infestors/queen patches) ling/bling/mutas was balanced versus marine/tanks, and the mutas were really usefull, because they defended the drops, sniped the tanks (making it hard for a terran to hold a position for too long) and killed the medivacs.
In Hots mutas are a bit better, but they don't really fullfill a role of "sniping mines". And it's hard to cut on the mutas, because with boost drops are really f***ing good. I hoped that life would "show me the way" to beat terran in the group of death, and he ended up getting absolutely crushed by Innovation.
I don't mind innovation rolling good zerg left and right (I liked to see MMA play back in the day :p), but the games he plays are often not even close ...

People already tried them out.
Funny thing is Life build 2SH in both of games against Bogus in an attempt to set the mines off.
But it failed horribly.
Locusts just get sniped by MMM.

They aren't viable in ZvT unless T decides to go mech(which no one does because Bio+Mine are the best composition now).

I'd love to seek the Tank come back, but the Tank is just so poor in HotS metagame and don't scale well.
