If baneling mine use becomes more common, so will terrans getting a raven early or maybe even massing ravens like SV's in BW (imagine marine,medivac, tank, ravens). Using the HSM to scare off magic box'd mutas with thors or just spamming PDD to reduce the effectiveness of mutas. not to mention mineral line harassment with AT's.

I've started incorporating a lot more Raven/Marine instead of Thors into my play recently, if only for auto-turrets. It's actually pretty been pretty successful.

Does this mean you'll stop crying about Terran too?
I think esports is pretty nice.

These are some of the reasons why I have started including Ravens into my TvZ match ups lately.

Played many games with my Zerg practise partner who was practising the mass muta thing befor Idra now made it the Flavor of the week. (Watch, Every zerg and there mother will be doing mass muta tactics in all there ZvT now.) Was going bio to deal with the mutalisks which worked fine. But soon as banelings came it became to hard for me to handle, especially with the annoying mines.

Now Ravens imo nulify the banelings 100%, with HSM when your micro'in your ground units away. And also the turret helps alot. (use it like you would Force field with protoss!)

But can't wait for the new FOTW to hit, been practising against it for a good 2 weeks now :D

No shit- Sherlock, that's why I'm disappointed, cause you couldn't pull off anything original. The thing is, good terrans don't fear anything zerg throws at us, we just question what we should do next.

This thread seems sort of forced. There hasn't really been any Terran tears to speak of, whereas if you go on ladder, most Zerg players will be raging. These tactics are pretty interesting though.

I think its funny that... when the Terran guy made the post about "Zerg tears" all the Terrans came out of the woodwork saying how funny the post was.

It seems the sarcasm went over their head.

And.... Look at them now.... "I thought you were above this"

Funny stuff =p

Actually I'm a friend of TLOBrian.. if you haven't noticed, and yes i get all the sarcasm, but this is in response to nothing but a parody and preemptive, also unoriginal. making it very stale. Although I admit it is very nice that zerg players got a nice little micro trick to help them out, I rly see no reason for this.

edit: It is good that such move was shown to much larger crowd, and gave an example how effective it can be. Because it much more different than seeing it on youtube done with the editor, and then seeing it in a real game.

I like how op is so "in your face" and badass with those pic and such.

gj figuring out stuff that was ingame since beta, i guess a couple of zergs decided to take a break from whining in the forums and decided to brainstorm for 15min.

on serious note, i never took the QQs as real for this reason, i genuinely feel that zerg players are probably the least creative, its extremely rare to find any atempt at anything new in like 200 games i played so far, i only remember this one guy that tried to take my own natural and blocked it off spine crawlers and thats it.

The replays and the pros games arent very different tbh.

Patch 1.1
- Thor's splash damage radius has been increased to 3.

Jokes aside, I'm really glad this showed up. This is quite a BW eske thing and hopefully will change a lot of the metagame (that I don't think Zerg early game doesn't needs some love).

And mby now people will realize thors are not a great counter to mutas... Who would have guess a unit that moves slower then spidermines isn't really that great vs mass air units...

Actually the fact that thors have splash and their range made them great, they're still good against players with sloppy control but other than that not so good.
