Their winrate is higher then the likelihood of actually seeing a zerg get played in PL. | ||

IDK, but Roro is suddenly garbage and JD is like the only zerg getting wins. Even Soulkey losing games. PL coaches have it in their head protoss is the #1 option. And then there are two teams with an ace Terran so they don't need anything else. | ||

Well I think that most zergs were getting better results in WoL than they should have. I also think that zerg still needs to figure out its place in the HotS metagame whereas terran and protoss seem to have found theirs a little faster. Which isn't surprising, it was the same in WoL. | ||

I think there's tons of potential in zerg but sometimes a race needs someone like Stephano in WoL who really showed new effective ways to play the game. | ||

And I'd rate SH/hydra/corrupter/viper deathball as scarier than Toss templar/air one. | ||

"Figuring out how to beat the protoss deathball" is only relevant when Protoss only sit back and make a deathball. The game is largely about taking advantages and capitalizing on them, and the Mothership Core now allows for very early greed as well as harassment without fear of an all-in counter, meaning ZvP is a lot less about end-game deathballs and a lot more about constant harassment/aggression and constant defence through all phases of the game. | ||

I don't see how this is relevant but umm... yeah, I know. What I meant was that zergs at the beginning of HotS were complaining that the ultimate protoss army can't be beaten. A few weeks later it's actually the other way around. | ||
