We need more Baneling drops. Why don't we see them more?

I think I've seen claims about every single unit being OP by now. (maybe with the exception of the corruptor) "Marauder=OP" was a common theme in WoL beta. | ||

And if they have to, in banes. But getting drop tech and all might take away from the rush to the 40+ muta cloud | ||

If you can find a protoss base with no cannons maybe they can work. However Z usually will have their hands full dealing with the protoss army/zealot harass | ||

Hey, you are talking to a race that complained for a while that they couldn't keep up with a 3/3 MMMM late game, while claiming to not be able to afford hive for 3/3 upgrades. You know, every Z build is so incredibly tight, that they can't do anything not standard o.O | ||

It's not likely to work against someone with good multitasking and map awareness. You're just giving away precious gas most likely. Also, trading banes for workers is often bad for zerg. For 8 banes and 2 OLs, even if you kill 15ish workers, you'd be breaking even at best. You need massive detonations to make it worthwhile. | ||
