You wanna know why? cuz Hydras kill mutas for less. Because Hydra's can catch up to mutas right? Because even on creep I'm pretty sure Hydra's are slower than mutas. You get an infestor or two, cast fungal, and boom. Muta's melt to your hydras. | ||

You wanna know why? cuz Hydras kill mutas for less. Have you ever played ZvZ? Muta builds do a LOT of damage vs hydra builds... You keep them pinned in their base while expo-ing yourself. Get about 14 muta's (or enough to force the other Z to spend most of his gas on hydras) while slowly working up a large Bling ball to roll his mainly hydra army when he decides to make his doom push (or roll in yourself if your harass / pinning was really effective). The reason infestors worked so well here is that they shut down muta harass harder than a thor can, thus making sure you don't have to spend every drop of gas into your hydras so you can actually survive the incoming Blings. | ||

No, out of the extra base(s) that having map control allowed me to secure while you were busy spending everything on fragile hydras that can't attack me. That's why mutas are still made ZvZ - until infestors come out, you get a huge advantage. | ||

It just means i have to press 4-s and then 8 times Z on the key board? 4sz seems kinda ridiculous, but i want to make sure. | ||

"SC2 Public Test server is not available right now. Please check http://www.battle.net/sc2/game/ptr/ for more information." but all the reasons I've seen why this message occurs does not apply to me. (SEA does not access, etc.) I have an NA account which was purchased before Nov. Here's some additional information: It was working when I started it initially on Saturday 12/4 This error message would then show up on Sunday 12/5 Run Windows 7, typically on a Standard User (less privileges - not Admin) Does work when I "Run as administrator", but would not like to continue having to run this way. Have tried restarting to no avail. Any help would be appreciated. | ||

It's probably easier to get hits off on a probe if they actually need to avoid your units instead of just walking through them (like when they go behind mineral lines). | ||

The fact that some units are good against other units are the entire reason why play isn't completely linear and boring. If there were nothing that beats mutas, then every ZvZ would wind up with nothing but a muta race. lul ever played BW ZvZ? I bet this will still turn out better than that. | ||

When I play Zerg I do it this way anyways so that I can go "6 zerglings, 3 drones, 1 overlord" or whatever and have more precise control. You can still watch what's going on in your base/battle as you do it so what's the big deal? | ||

Does anyone know what the general chat channel is for? I see there's a 100 player limit per channel. Is this just a default chat channel for the division you're in? Is there such a thing? | ||

As for phoenix kiting you do realize that you can run away with your mutas then as they chase instantly turn around and the phoenix will slide into your range cause it has to decelerate before it pulls back. You do realize Phoenixs have more range, faster movement, higher DPS, and more HP than Mutalisks do right? | ||
