Bio can beat swarm hosts, the problem was he was defensive for too long and let Stephano get infestors/vipers and a million static defense.

Once you let Stephano reach that critical point the only thing that wins is 30 ravens.

I don't know how anyone could watch that game and not just agonize over the bullshittery that is swarm host. The zerg race favors this extreme turtle play way too much and it makes matches total garbage. I'd have just let USA win that for having to put up with Stephano's swarmhosts.
(This isn't a complaint about balance, this is a complaint about terrible unit design)


Eh, it is what it is. I'm not a swarmhost fan, but that was still a very well played game from Stephano. I think more than anything, Terran game theory needs to be further developed to deal with that style.


There's nothing to develop. It's impossible for QXC to switch from 200/200 bio to mass air without dying during the switch.


He should have done ravens. 4-6 of these are great to contain SH with seeker missiles. Massive drops on Stephano main would have done damages too. Instead QXC chooses to drop on Stephano's mining bases and that have done no harm : Stephano already has a huge bank and loose only 300 minerals in the process whereas QXC lost a lot of minerals and gaz with dead units and medivacs.
He also kept donating tanks and marines/marauders to Stephano by keeping coming in his SH trap in the middle.

If you want to whine, whine about QXC play. Swarm host is not really the best option in ZvT.

Timing attack is the easiest way to kill SH, between locust that are 30yards away from SH and SH spawn new locusts. Somehow only Stephano is able to attack in that timing so fair I have seen.
