I'm pretty convinced we can complain about both muta vs muta and roach wars.

Buff Hydras, solve both?

But then Protoss will complain.

It's funny - the first time I saw pros effectively using Contaminate in tournament matches, it was at the WCS 2013 Season 3 Finals in Canada - right after Day9 had attempted a Funday Monday with Mass Contaminate and come to the conclusion that the spell is underpowered and completely useless.

There was a time, maybe early 2011, when it was used a lot for 2 weeks or so in ZvZ to halt larvae.

On newkirk early on in HotS and PL before Solar was known. Solar went for roach hydra while Rain did a phoenix collosus build.

But Solar had hidden 4 overseers and perma contaminated Rain's robo and killed him with roach hydra.

I loved muta vs muta. Sure it's a numbers game, but it's so frikkin tense from ling/bane onward. There's no "build up" stage with roach vs roach and also you get those rare games were someone switches tech hoping to land that big fungal (Violet vs Leenock).
