Find it a bit funny tbh that zerg players come here after moaning for a month or two and suddenly ZvT is fine? And even indicate that T are crying? Zerg is a lot stronger than Z players do realize and tbh I think muta usage is just the first step in zerg ownage. The niche of the zerg is a lot more tactic based, using your units right, while terran is more picking the right unit for the situation/game in question. Hence II believe it just takes the zerg players a bit longer to learn the tricks of the trade for z than terran for t(and tbh t has a lot more... vocal[for lack of better word] players making BOs and 'breakthroughs' in terran tactics, be it due to terran being twice more or because we just got lucky with TLO, Jinro, Maka, tarson, bratok and I could prob go on and on) With this thread I do hope we can relax on the 'ZvT is imba' threads though. | ||

I believe the real credit has to go to D-Rose for being the first to post about the idea with replays. http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=143825 | ||

people have been doing this since early phase 2, jesus. it changes nothing. if you didnt know about it you don't even get to have an opinion on the balance of the matchup. second, its not magic boxes. it's fucking moving your units. magic boxes referred to having units in a specific formation that let them multi cast spells spread out over an area, and what you could to make mutalisks stack. THIS IS NEITHER this is the air equivalent of surrounding with lings. move past then attack move. there is no abuse of the engine or any glitches. | ||

I didn't know Terrans cried about Zerg; that's pathetic. I like this micro "glitch" you can abuse with Mutalisks and I hope they don't fix it for entertainment reasons. Although I like Morrow's style, I'm rooting for IdrA | ||

LOL QQ User was warned for this post | ||

Incorporate them into Mass-marines and don't rely on gimmicky cloaking and they totally rip apart mutas, snipe Blings before they reach the Marines, EMP Infestors etc. I've been doing this builds several times on Top Diamond-Level (~900 ELO) and it has no Problems dealing with Mutas or Blings and if you adjust the Number of Marauders right, you can pretty much beat any Zerg-Army-composition pretty easily. They are even very good in the Lategame, cuz they snipe Broodlords from a distance and the sniper-round is actually pretty useful against Ultras. Ghosts are IMHO the most underused Terran-Unit in TvZ although they are IMHO very very strong in that MU and I've seen Top-players like Jinro use them several times... | ||

Although I like Morrow's style, I'm rooting for IdrA so whats your definition of glitch? If moving and then stopping your units is a glitch then god damnit blizzard is going to have to remove the hellion and the reaper... I'm sorry but your not helping the Terran stereotype when posting such idiotic nonsense. | ||
