I suppose ultimately Polt's drop would have done enough damage and traded much better than mostly Roaches so Nerchio was going to fall significantly behind. Still though, would liked to have seen him fight it out a bit more.

It's what he does man, he just waits until the right amount of workers was lost then he goes and kills every hatch/nexus on the map.
Maru and Serral are probably top 5.

Banelings are suicide units and are wasted and aren't able to hit all units essentially. Not a fair comparison at all.

I'm not saying they're identical, but the cost-effectiveness can be achieved with zerg... it's funny how mines always happen to be OP when the other player loses.

Except Swarm Host that are a terrible unit and we all agree - zerg has nothing that is cost effective in this game, that's why it's always painful to win with zerg and we mostly see it by either starving(by starving i also mean 5 base vs 3 etc) your opponent or one big fight

They also cost half a supply, don't have to burrow before attacking, force quite a bit of micro out of the opponent and can be built close to a battle in a matter of seconds. My point was simply that each race has really cost-effective units...

Banelings are so much more difficult to be cost effective with though dude that you can't compare the two.

But zerg is not (majorly) underpowered overall... that's just the way the race is being played. If you don't like its mechanics and want the option of two basing/dropping hardcore; switch race?
