Well lategame toss is made of insane AOE

Lategame zerg is made of insane amout of free units

I like it :p

I kind of love the free units, but atm you kind of get the feeling players are not entirely sure how to deal with all this, it will be good when figured out I hope.

Damn I like zerg this expansion, I love playing versus them as protoss, so dangerous and fun. In WoL I didnt play protoss at all cause I felt so gay.

Every game that involved building massive amounts of stationary defense and sitting behind it is boring...

Dunno but it has this TvT like positioning aspect to it and is actually much more aggressive due to free units and insane range units. So if well played aggression often does lead to an advantage (I'd say).

Also it isn't all figured out yet and it's kinda interesting to see how people approach this. Also controlling huge unit groups like these, that require good splitting etc. and certainly aren't 1A, is rather hard and thus fun to watch at times.

And not that much time has passed. The ZvP lategame in WoL was stagnant for over years :/
