Muta/scourge wars in BW were actually pretty cool though. SC2 is just parking blobs of mutas on top of other blobs of mutas and seeing who has more.
but it isn't muta vs muta is 95% about the zerglings, not about the mutalisks. roro vs dima game 1 for example.
yeah. And roach vs roach is silly, because swarmhosts as well as roach/hydra beat it, so it shouldn't happen. But people have to train the new metagame a lot first to get solid builds.
Hey guys quick question. I've been looking around for where these vods for this will be. Will OGN be providing free VODS (like with the proleague youtube)? Or will they be behind a pay wall like GOMs. I remember reading somewhere that Blizzard required the WCS vods to be free to view, though I can't remember where I read that.

qft you have blue-red background - on both sides! wtf - you have blue circle next to red letter and red circle next to blue letter and the smallest element - the letter - put on a blue-red background - is the actual color recognition element

That seemed strange, though. Wouldn't transition into something from the infestation pit be smart there? Roro played a rather dominating ZvZ on that map vs. DIMAGA earlier where he went for swarm host/roach and DIMAGA went for fast ultralisks.
With the muta wars it seemed like there was no other viable strategy, and it was all about micro, or sneaking in some infestors and hoping to get a money fungal.
In theory yes (i'm nto a zerg player) but to switch tech might make you too vulnerable to the opponents superior roach army. Also infestors arent as effective with their projectile fungal. Again though. i'm not a zvz expert.

True that air play in BW was VERY entertaining compared to sc2 muta battles but it was somewhat interesting MUCH better then WoL zvz and this.
You don't have a clue what you are talking about sc2. You are taking conclussions from a single series of two players who seem like they forgot to play roach vs roach and neither transition out of it. The muta vs muta on sc2 is just a retarded snowballing painful proccess.

+Bio damage to spores. Again.
Thanks. I thought that might be it. The comments over the last two pages seemed to indicate the same. It's been ages since I watched a ZvZ. PvP is the best mirror in HOTS, IMO. But I may be biased as a Protoss.
At least this game will be over fast. Or maybe not. Revival seems to have derped that a little, maybe.

The reason they had to stay roach vs roach was because of all the eco damage that goes on in a typical ZvZ. The moment one of them teched up and stopped roach production was the trigger for the one not teching to just run right over them with a higher roach count. Roro had no business losing that last roach vs roach engagement when he had like twenty something more roaches. He derped up there.

I dunno, for me it was mostly scourges that really took things up a notch BOOOOOOMM
My shitty ZvZ is one of the reasons I switched to Protoss but I was almost tempted to switch back when I saw this, I was just like "whaaaaa?"
