Because protoss makes phoenix and, congratulations, you've just wasted 600/600 Sometimes it can be done vs dt drop opening (as they have trouble defending a few mutas) but even without stargate it's risky since protoss can just come with archons and kill you while mutalisks try to be cute. Let's not even talk about corruptors. | ||

Hurricane was down to 30 workers, his attack was being contained pretty well by Solar's lurkers and zergling's runbys were being effective. It's not like Solar had a significant army advantage, trying to end the game seemed one unnecessary gamble to me. | ||

Let's not even talk about corruptors. Well this sounds like a huge design flaw for zerg if they cannot fight for air priority at all. Not only air priority but also not having the tools to shut down air harass and make it actually risky for the opponent to fly things over the zerg base, different than the risk of not looking and fly over a ground anti-air | ||

That's a good thing as mutas are annoying enough currently to be a significant reason why Protoss pretty much always open Stargate. If Mutas could win air fights, Protoss would be forced into one macro build or suffer a build order loss to any Zerg player going Spire. The problem with Corruptors is unless you're playing someone going multi-stargate phoenix, you kill whatever air they have then you have a bunch of basically dead supply until you get Broodlords. | ||

LotV has many design flaws which were made more glaring lately. You get used to it eventually. Spire is indeed too slow to stop the harass; Queens should be able to deal with Oracles, at worst you could build Spores. Air superiority does not seem integral in early game ZvP as long as you can defend, after that for everything else there is Mast...I mean there are Hydralisks. | ||

The Queen also fits more in WC3 design philosophy in that it is both an economic and military unit which makes it a giant aberration in SC2. The redesign Zerg needed: Delete Queen (combine that with deleting mules and chrono) Remove vision from creep Make whatever other changes are needed to make that playable (probably involves making Hydras tier 1) | ||

He hasn't reached their level yet, he should be 3-3(or 3-2) between ro32 and ro16 exits if I remember correctly; he has the right potential, we can believe in him. | ||

It's not like Impact should finish higher than Ro16 honestly. | ||
