Really?

You think that the race that requires perfect scouting, and nearly precogniscient reaction time isn't a problem? It's not a problem that one race can instantly lose to any number of ridiculous cheeses from either of the other races- to which the only counter is often pure guesswork?

Raw ignorance. If you think it is this bad for pro players right now, how awful do you think it is for Bronze, Silver, Gold players to play Zerg? They either don't know how or lack the ability to make the absolutely perfect moves required of them simply to stay in the game against an even lower skilled T or P, who can just build any number of any unit, attack move, and win.

When every player of a race is repeatedly punished simply for picking the wrong faction, and when he instantly loses games for not having perfect timing, perfect scouting, and perfect decision making, even when outplaying an inferior opponent, there is a problem. A problem that affects far more than the tiny number you'd like to believe.

It is extremely frustrating to play Z right now because you are always forced to play the game that the Terran or Protoss player wants you to play. Even if you play their game, and you play it better, you're still extremely liable to lose to one void ray, one dropship, or one Thor. Zerg needs options. I really hope they get them soon.


This is all true.
Mutabane or Mutaling seems to give Zerg some of that game-deciding power, but 2 (3) units is just not enough.

Also, I'm going to write your quote down.
"it pisses me off that blizzard's reaction time to terran tears is about 14 seconds, but apparently the massive oceanic sea of zerg tears is caused by l2p-issues"

MorroW "suggested" to switch to zerg to prove that zerg is not UP. But no top terran officially talked about switching for good.

MuRdeR claims he beats everyone on his team whenever he picks Zerg. "So there's no imbalance, lol" basically. Didn't provide replays or anything to back it up though. This was prepatch btw.

He said something along the line of " I can win any tournament with zerg". But after seeing him play and trashtalk yesterday i guess it was just another troll atempt.
When in doubt, just drone up.

Take it from a Gold level Zerg, it's fucking awful trying to play. I'm determined to stick with it, but it is so frustrating that I can keep up a near constant harass, out expand a Terran 3 bases to 1, and his ball of stimmed marauders with 2 siege tanks can still just waltz in and destroy everything I have.

Now obviously I still have a lot of learning to do and tons of room to improve, but the frustration and problems affect every level of play, not just these top level pros. I still refuse to switch races though, because wins as Zerg feel so much more satisfying.


Sorry but Zerg is not the reason you are in gold. Pretty much anyone who isn't diamond has serious macro, micro, decision-making etc issues.

If you want proof, tell me one new zerg pro player that wasn't knwoed in BW way before.
Almost all zerg pro are old players. 90% of new players on the pro scene are terran. :/

im in diamond 1350 give take 50p, im a zerg, i still dont feel i have right to talk about imba. i think like z who have 1500-1600 have that right, so just normal diamond zergs pls stfu also terran and toss should admit that their race is better, though the game is not broken

I KNEW IT!!!!!!!!

Zerg has always been, and will always be, the weakest race, yet difficult. They are, after all, the only race that uses a completely different method of producing. That's something that isn't very easy to balance.

In BW, if they didn't have the muta stacking and (hold)lurkers, they'd be the shittiest race ever. It took these little extras in order to balance them. You know much mutas suck when not micro'd?
Hell, just the style is enough to tell you Zerg is the weakest, when you need to always have more bases than T or P in order to be 'even'. This also applies to SC2 as well.

The thing is all Terran matchups are interesting and fun to play, while ZvZ isn't just appealing at all. ZvP seems very bad and cheesy aswell.

Like he'd ever do that.

Personally, I find ZvZ more fun than TvT. It's a much more mobile match-up.

Is there some new information that should be added to the top-post? I really wonder, if he is just whining or if he really will change.

All Zerg needs, is a Scourge like unit for Air. This would help them defend vs multi drops from Terran... who have become just too mobile.
Whats the altitude?
