Seriously, herO is just expanding so much better than Snute. Why he has three-4 nexus on Snute is beyond me.

Playing Terran is like flying down a MULE drop in a marine suit, firing a Gauss Rifle

I actually have no idea what is going on this game. So many spores, so many drones, probes attacking spores, dts killing double spire with no way to stop them besides 300 queens who arent injecting. Wat.

Classic Snute

ROFL so much spines and spores. Might as well not make anything else.

Been taking some pictures, pretty sure it's just spores

I don't understand how people can like this and call this "exciting aggressive swarm host play".

no one does? lol? snute has different SH styles. game 1 was mass hydra with a muta switch and a lot of aggression. against the other hero at DH/IEM a while back he used upgraded lings. no one calls mass spore crawling aggressive or exciting.

even the swarm host styles in g1/2 is awful though. don't act like g3 is somehow different enough that you can't generalize over these games

are you serious? using mass hydra is completely different and only worked because snute kept hero's army size low which allowed him to take storms on his hydra ball without just dying. the muta and ling aggression killed workers/the third repeatedly and prevented hero from turtling up comfortably. if hero maxes out with their compositions in g1 snute gets slaughtered. snute used aggression and multitasking to win - PERIOD. and he did the same with mass upgraded lings in the other game i'm referring to

you aren't watching the game if you don't think g1 is different from this lol

yeah but this game also has a lot of multitasking, air units harassing, exciting back and forth switching in between styles. and swarm hosts still make it less dynamic, imo it's similar enough to at least g2.
Well, now I tell you, I never seen good come o' goodness yet. Him as strikes first is my fancy; dead men don't bite; them's my views--amen, so be it.

That's easy, look for the six Probes leaving the front door.

stephano teached us that you don't need to have many bases as a swarm host viper player.

Remember when Zerg was the swarmy, constantly mobile and aggressive race according to lore? After these games I'm not so sure, Zerg might actually be the Terran turtles.
