Ravens are pretty much useless now I doubt anybody will make them, a mech army is too expensive to spend 200 gas for a few auto turrets or a HSM that won't hit anything (specially with SH being this fast) | ||

But yeah, the only reason for them to be built against ground armies was the old swarm host to begin with, so the cause to add Ravens to a ground army isn't there anymore to begin with. I really want to see someone who plays like Gumiho or Mvp and just masses BCs in the lategame and see how well it works now, given that SHs camping within spore walls probably isn't viable anymore with the new cooldown. Or just someone skipping tanks completely. And also a Zerg who doesn't open with a Mech blindcounter strategy right from the start, but actually opens without the advantage of having roaches instead of zerglings+speed+melee upgrades in production. | ||

You are acting like PDD is non-existent anymore and it is not, it just lasts a lot less and it lasts enough for one Locust wave to be absorbed without you taking much damage. If you are in front of Zerg's base that might as well be end for him since next Locust wave won't come for like next 30-50 seconds. | ||

They are redesigned, they are different, you can't say that they are better or worse because their role has changed. You can't even judge anything based on these games because Snute still plays with them similarly to how he is playing the old Swarm Hosts, he is defending a lot, massing Queens and Swarm Hosts mostly etc. | ||

I have easier time attacking the forward base and defending the 1 tucked in as Zerg. True story | ||
