They fill quite similar roles, imo. Swarm hosts are generally placed in big clumps so they can send mass waves of little bugs at enemies to whittle them down over time. You don't even need to risk real units because locusts travel so far and live so long. A tank can never attack anything unless it is moved significantly further forward, and it never has the advantage of an endless mass of free units that the enemy has to fight through before being able to engage them. They may both be siege units but the tank has to be used in a much more risky fashion, making its placement and spread much more important. There's a reason that tank/viking turtle doesn't work in TvP even though swarm host/corruptor turtle works in ZvP. | ||

There haven't been a whole lot of Terran games to watch lately, but go and take a gander at some of the TvZ mech Flash and TY have been playing in SPL lately. Then you can come back and apologize. | ||

Because SH causes boring and super passive prolonged games in all matchups we see them. So they are obviously the problem. They were supposed to be a siege unit for zerg but players use them just for passive defending and/or slowly wearing down their opponents. I said in some other thread that I would like them to do more damage and move faster off creep but have less HP and limited locust range. Then you would need to use them more activley because they couldn't just sit deep inside zerg territory, safe around static defense and creep. | ||

No. Maybe you should give more info because I dont understand your point. Spawning bunch of free units prevents movement on the map. Sure there are players who deliberately play passive mech but I am willing to bet most terrans would push out more if they could. Now you can only usually push if your opener (like banshee-helion) deals enough damage to prevent zerg from getting a lot of SH out. | ||
