If a new test patch hits live where Locusts are weaker but there is no upgrade for them(meaning they fly from the start) I think that we are going to see these kind of strategies a lot more often.

This map needs to fixed and spines really need to be actually static if people are going try to call that thing "static defense."


Spine crawlers fill no function while they are mobile. They only act as defense while they are static, hence 'static' defense.


Okay... how about all those base trades where the Zerg brings their unrooted spine with the army and the opponent can't do shit. Spines should at least lose health while unrooted.
They hate us 'cause they ain't us.

I nerver understood how they were "removed" from the game, when they still were that strong. Guess Zerg just had to learn how to use them

locust respawn timer is 60s, the unit effectively doesn't exist for a full minute after every attack. ByuL had to make 20 spines to even hold the first attack

With a setup time, i don't understand why investing in 5 swarm hosts and nydus won't be great even in the late game.

The difficulty is in surviving to the late game. You can´ tgo to SH almost ever until the very late game and then protoss deathball is so strong that you need every unit to defeat it.

so what? you don't need to make an army out of SH, 5 does it and every 60 sec the huge damage output so you can instakill a nexus or whatever...


5 swarmhost is 20 supply. Zerg loses most zvp engagements at 200 vs 120 supply, no way zerg can afford to have dead units taking up that much supply.

on deadwing which was a similarly tutrleable map where he abused the same gimmick of walling four (!) bases with spines

You can't do this on every map, which is the reason we barely see this.

You don't have to use that exact build, but you can always mix SH in....
Some of you here behave as if that was the only build and option to make SH work, start thinking outside the box. Making a small group of units to harass isn't too much to ask. It was obviously fun to watch and displayed great skill

And of course you have to play the map

Yep. It was insane when it happened, although i never thought i'd see it again, especially in such an important final. This start has 100% win rate against herO in televised games haha.
Ganzi beat me without stim. Ostojiy beat me with a nydus. Siphonn beat me with probes. Revival beat my sentry-immortal all-in.
