I concur. We've seen it before. Can't put my finger on it but even recently I saw a PvZ where the zerg player used zydus on the 3rd and natural to harass both bases without losing any army.

My favorite was HyuN (?) vs some mech terran on Deadwing where he went mass infestor and triple nydused into the main and killed everything with infested terrans. And by triple nydus I mean he built 3 nydus networks and spawned 3 worms at once into the main for maximum speed.

Is LoTV ZvZ just as bad as HoTS? I've never really seen a real competitive match-up. I mean, what could be worse than Roach wars?

I mean it's either 13/12 ling/bane or roach/ravager vs roach/ravager. And then it can get really fucking atrocious in the late game with lurker/viper turtle.

lotv zvz is fantastic! the main complaint IMO is that ling/bane and heavy 2 base aggression is too strong, but those games are fun to watch too, and mid-lategame zvz is awesome

its so easy to just say "unit comp vs unit comp" and act like that makes a matchup bad, but i really don't agree... with OL drops, nydus, ravager skillshots, etc. zvz has become really interesting, and despite common misconceptions muta is still strong and viable on larger maps as well
