World cup what? Never even heard of this

Im looking forward to the day the game is balanced. Players deserve to be ranked by the amount of practice / effort and heart they put into this game and not by imbalances.
Id love to see players like Idra representing the Zerg race in the future :-)

Scourge and Lurker would make Zerg so much more viable.

Sure I am zerg and I don't feel underpowered atm, but it sure feels like I have less options.
Take for instance neural parasite. I used to get this spell and use it, then they suddenly nerfed it. I continued to use it because it was already incorporated against certain strategies. Great, but then they nerfed it again. Even tough I didn't win games with it I thought, well maybe it was too powerful and still continued to use it. Then they nerfed it.
At this point it was not in any counter build I had and I only got it on certain occations. Then they nerfed it again. Needless to say I stopped using it completely, since the upgrade cost is a complete waste, and since then guess what; they nerfed it again!?
I would like to know why, if Blizzard really does all these fancy tests they proclaim how they can arrive at nerfbatting something so hard that it's really like the worse spells in starcraft 1, just there and not used at all. It's like a kid trying to balance, overdoing it at every turn.. Even tough it's not the same, my younger self played Druid in wow for 2 years and the same thing was there; 7% of total population was druids and while they did fix it eventually it went on for two years. I know it's not the same but the concensus from that is: There's really no point in trying to persuade Blizzard. Even pure statistics won't wake them up always. Even you guys are defending them saying "obviously the amount of players and/or players in tournaments dosen't mean this and that..." If you are clean in the head then, yes, statistics are the best tool. Ever. Should not be ignored.

There's probably people who get off to having their balls put in a vice, that doesn't change how the general consensus feels about something

It's not just about balance. I was considering switching race because I'm fed of all the TvT randomness, but Zerg is just another game (which I don't like and also most of the top european terrans I've spoken with).

I adore War3 but I'd speculate you're not an Undead player. And I suspect your nowhere close to be top player to blame balance for sucking at WC3
What does my skill have to do with imbalance - your terrible attempt to throw chip is pointless. When you can predict the outcome of an Orc vs UD match at the top level due to known imbalance, noted by the pros, it's probably best if you stop talking. Actually, definitely best if you do.

The actual thing that controls the Raven is an AI that is the thing talking to u and u can see his face on the screen of the HQ guy.
Or maybe the guy is guiding it and is helped by that AI but then I would not understand why is the IA speaking to us and not the guy.

But no top terran officially talked about switching for good. 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. Like he'd ever do that. The man won't keep his word because he knows that it would be the end of his career.
Wow...I never really cared for MorroW, but that's the most ridiculous trash talk I've ever heard. By all means, play Zerg and win a tournament.

I think they should give zerg a new unit.
|
That's stupid. Nobody should be playing SC for a living, maybe as an experience or something, but those who try to make a living off it deserve to get screwd. It's just a game.
unfortunately you have no idea what the rest of the world is like. It's a profession in Korea. A legitimate profession, just like sports are here.
But football is "just a game"
yeah, right.
Zerg needs a hard looking at these days. And this is coming from a terran.

Way too weak a unit. only worth it to counter banshee harass. Nothing else.

Scourge and Lurker would make Zerg so much more viable.
I can't even begin to describe how amazing and balanced scourge would be. and no, that's not sarcasm.

I actually agree with this.
Cuz Zerg got only 9 units that can be used while attacking and do damage (I dont count queen obviously..) Zergling, Baneling, Roach, Hydra, Infestor, Mutalisk, Corrupt, Broodlord, Ultras (yeah Im counting the useless and slow Hydra...even though it cant move outside the creep...)
Terran is sitting with 11 units that can attack. Marine, Marauder, Ghost, Reaper, Hellion, Banshee, Viking, Battlecruiser, Tanks, Thor, Raven
Protoss got 12 units that can be used while attacking. Zealot, Stalker, Sentry, Immortal, Collosus, Dark Templar, High Templar, Archon, Voidray, Phoenix, Carrier, Mothership.
This is one of the major reasons why Zerg cant do shit early game, they dont have enough units/options, it's a fact. This suprises me still..I dont think people realize what 1-2 units extra could've done for the Zerg..
edit: notice how flexible the terran and protoss units are aswell compared to the zerg..the other races can get away from a battle easier than zerg..just saying.

And one of the changes I would love is a quicker build time on spine crawlers. I don't think they should be instant, but a little quicker would help out a lot. I also would strongly support the addition of the Lurker and Scourge back into the swarm.
