I hope you get to play a best of five or more vs Idra in a zerg versus zerg. Then if you beat him he has nothing on you (But if you dont, you`re in for some grade A thrash talk)

Haha. But, seriously it's really cool that you're trying out Zerg. Who knows, you may end up liking them more than Terran!


Made me lol.

Props Morrow for actually following through. Also happy the map imbalances are already showing, we really need better maps. I would love to see some insight on the Zerg once you get good with them (hopefully you never drop to my level lol down around 1200).

A question to Morrow, would you say Metalopolis is balanced or does it favor a race ?

cool well-written post, respect

GL with Zerg

From my experiences, Zerg is indeed quite harder to play compared to T and P. I'm curious what Z is capable of in your hands.

I wish you good fortunes with this project Morrow.

Now I wonder is it going to be enough for Idra to never say word balance again if you win a Sunday Go4Sc2 as Zerg or is he going to require you to win something like IEM again.

It favors the Hybrids.

MorroW: Do you think knowing what Terran is capabale of will help you alot when you've become a bit more confident with your Zerg?

Oh I'm a morrow hater alright. From the moment he defeated IdrA in the IEM.

That aside, this is a very good step for him. Not because he is playing my race, but because he is learning the ins and outs of it. Knowing what is difficult to handle for your opponent is HUGE.

Quick example: A situation in which terran drops a small MM force ( about 2 medivacs worth ) into the main and starts attacking drones/buildings. The terran player loses all his MM but the zerg has lost a lot of zerglings in the process.

Terran point of view: Meh, I lost my drop force and I didn't kill off that many drones and no production building. That wasnt all that good.

Zerg point of view: OH GOD, I lost a ton of zerglings, I have to keep up production but I lost a few drones. I forgot to creep tumor and inject larva during the attack. What if he attacks my front now? Maybe there is another drop incoming!

The situation is exactly the same, but the player state of mind is completely different. If you know how to put stress on an opponent, you can really start (censored) him up.

Another situation, Terran puts a nuke somewhere in zergs 6 bases.
Terran PoV: :D
Zerg PoV: OH SNAP OH SNAP
( use more nukes terran players, please we dont keep overseers everywhere and we lack the APM to check each of our bases )


I won't stop hating. I doubt I ever will. But I can still admire his way of getting trained in better mind games. Regardless if he will ever be a pro zerg player, he will still get the needed senses to get that edge in TvZ that other T players won't have.

Keep on making me hate you MorroW, and you'll probably do good in tournaments. I wish you the best of luck in crushing future zergs dreams, turning expanding into nightmares and making them get a night light to keep the reapers from harrassing them while they sleep.

Hell yeah Morrow. Now all your haters from the swarm just became your fans. This is like Brett Favre on the Vikings, except the Terrans aren't going to hate you.

Plus, don't really see why he couldn't become a top Zerg player? Because he's played a race hardcore since beta and a release period of two months, he's stuck with it for the game's lifespan? Hope you find something in the Zerg you love brudda, have fun

There are actually a few pretty tiny changes that would make zerg very playable.

Gl with your experiment..I went from 1700 terran/protoss to 1300 zerg, so best of luck lol

This, to me, is the most exciting news in SC2 right now. MorroW, I've always liked you as a player and with this project, it's basically guaranteed that I will be a fan forever. Good luck! I'll certainly be following this closely.
I have a palm permanently stuck to my face yo.

Morrow, I'm a mediocre (at best) ~1200 point Diamond Terran and I struggle more against Zerg than the Terran and Protoss matchups. I'm lucky if I manage one win our of three against Zerg. Which means I'm a bit "WTF?" when everyone is complaining how uber Terran is and how horrible Zerg is. It's very likely that I just fucking blow, but it's strange that I manage to do reaonsably well against Protoss and other Terrans (maybe it's a playstyle thing).

I wonder when you play Terran against Zerg do you feel like you have a big racial advantage? Do you really feel that Terran is much stronger than Zerg when playing Terran?

It would be interresting to know how you feel the matchup is when you start to get the hang of ZvT.


It could be that you aren't harrassing enough if you think it's a playstyle thing (I assume this because I suppose you could get away with playing a bit more passive in vT and vP and still get away with it). Zerg's early game is said to be it's weakness so you should probably exploit that. Also, Thor/hellion as the core of your army is a terrifying thing for zerg to deal with imo.

Me too, I skipped this topic exactly because I thought it'd be about ultralisks and eggs. I only ended up reading it because of TL's tweet.

Really interesting to see where this goes for Morrow.
