banes and infestor are comeback mechanics, but are harder to make work. But they still are.

Also, don't forget much easier access to drops that can allow bane and ling drops and counterattacks

ling counter attacks are the best comeback mechanic in the game. Life won so many lost games where he came back with ling runbys.

Better than marine/marauder drops? Life was also a once in a lifetime kinda player and no one else was able to do the same.

banes and infestor are comeback mechanics, but are harder to make work. But they still are.

Slow banes are useless and even speed banes don´t do it if you are far behind. Infestors alone do shit and if you are behind in army supply you are praying for a mistake from terran. (eg a-moving into a choke)

dude, you're reaching. I even gave you the (they're harder to make work) talk but even then you're not pleased. They are comeback units. Burrow, Speed, non. If a mistake or flank or the innumerable permutations and variations of an engagement can go, usually those units are key. Ofc they're better when your opponent makes a mistake, that's sort of how every unit works.

THIS. And terran doesnt have static defense, you need to leave army supply behind, weaking your push

Terran douple drop walks into 2-3 spines. Spines die. Don´t act like Z can defend terran drops without units. (P maybe)

double drop in a comeback scenario means the Z can easily defend if he's sitting at his bases or can easily overrun if on the offensive

also, 2-3 spines plus queen/spore can buy a lot of time for the defense

Alright, but outside Korea I think there was always one zerg in the premier finals so far.
