When zerg doesn't split against widow mines, its widow mines OP and not the zergs fault for not splitting? That's what i am seeing. The winrates right now are in favor of zerg, so why would terran get a nerf? I think most people are completely ignoring how different the two engages. Terran poke with bio to kill off some lings and banelings, just like how zerg sent off some lings to bait widow mine shots. BUT for the actual engagement, Terran pulls away from the banelings and Zerg moves the banelings into the bio. Widow mines hits become unavoidable because you are engaging with your whole army. i.e. you can't micro against a widow mine that has targetted a unit. Terran on the other hand can improvise with micro, lifting up marines, splitting the bio and stutterstepping etc. | ||

For one thing, zerg units are mostly melee or very short range, meaning it's a hell of a lot harder to effectively work with the units. Another thing is it's BORING to see spam of MMWM. Who cares about balance when it's just boring as hell. Splitting units is splitting, it's not different if they are melee or ranged. And that's a very subjective thing to say, maybe its not MMWM that's boring, maybe it's ling/bane/muta that's boring. | ||

Vortix is sick good, no denial. But i would not place him as even opponent against MMA in his current form. Also, well, if zerg is good at picking off mines and it is easy to forget to build one, why not 3 factory mine :D? | ||

Who cares about balance when it's just boring as hell. But watching muta/ling/bling is exciting? I for one love watching good biomine vs good mutaling, it's hugely micro intensive and has non-stop engagements. Beats the hell out of watching every game decided in one engagement. | ||

The other big thing people are overlooking is the offensive capability of banelings vs WM. WM have to be positioned before (occasionally during) a fight. Banelings can attack. With drilling claws they don't really need to be positioned before a fight at all, WM have better offensive and defensive abilities than widow mines. It would be interesting to see a zerg set up a mine field like a terran but one good scan and all of that work goes away (compared to the WM which can hit the overseer while its burrowed, which makes killing WM slightly more difficult) | ||
