Does anyone know the reasoning behind the phoenix, hallucination, and observer buffs/cheapening?

PvZ was pretty even in terms of win rates (at least in the pro level)...

It just seems like that's the patch where protoss started to destroy everyone, and it came around the time where MC showed every other protoss how strong 2 base gateway sentry pushes are as well ><

Oh well... just have to wait

Holy shit lol.

LOVE brood war history lessons. Really shows how raw SC2 is. It feels like we're at ~30% in terms of knowledge and development.

There's definitely a lot more "pep" in their voice talking about BW than about SC2.

seriously... having 4 non zergs arguing that zerg is fine is really fucking annoying. i wonder how long the excuse will be that "Well you know, the game is, really young, so i mean you need to realize that things might be discovered, which will help zerg out." 1 year? 2 years? till HotS?

*EVEN IF* zergs units were perfectly balanced against toss/terrans units, it would still be fundamentally imbalanced due to the options t/p has against zerg. for instance,

There are 2 football teams, (american football.) Red and Blue. They both are completely even in all aspects, but team Red only has a third of the playcalls that the Blue team has. Red has to practice defending 3 times the amount of plays that blue has, and they only have a third of the plays that they can choose for offence... obviously blue will win more often than not.

Thats what starcraft 2 is like for zerg! They are team Red!


If only people weren't forced to play as zerg against their will... Oh wait.

Also, do you have any counterpoints to their argument, or are you just complaining that Idra isn't there to think for you?

Wow. Come on, this episode was NOT about "zerg is fine". Fucking ridiculous whining in this thread.

yeah no you're right they didnt talk about it for a half hour.

If you were paying attention, they weren't.

They should just make SOTG about BW full time, very enjoyable nostalgia show
