It's freezing cold in Australia right now.
By Australian standards yo. It's 22C here in the hottest part of the country in the middle of our summer.

Three sources of free units + movable static defense is dumb as eff. In what way was he being outplayed? Rain must have lost 5k in failed harassment, and he won by slowly building up an army that zerg couldn't engage. Against a protoss army about as mobile as a whale on an australian beach, zerg used no drops at all, no nydus at all, and no runbys till minute 41 or so. Instead he built swarm hosts, a forest of static defense and twiddled his thumbs. I play that way with 35 apm, really don't want to see it from pros. are you suggesting that Australian beaches have greater friction than their counterparts in the world? If true, that would be detrimental to tourism in Australia. It's so hot that the whale actually melts into the beach. It's freezing cold in Australia right now. By Australian standards yo.

Which doesn't necessarily mean he's going to build a Dark shrine. He saw the robo as well when scouting the twilight -> DT drop is pretty much the only build that it would be with those timings. | ||

I've always thought of it that way. Swarm Hosts were introduced as a siege unit, so I always imagined the locusts as projectiles that are just slow and you can kill. I realize this is an... imaginative vision of it, but it beats whining about free units. | ||
