would be nice to have queen detectors at expansions. 2-3 spines and a queen and your anti dt proof. hear a nuke go off, queens already at the nuke spot. or maybe overlords over expos

¿How anyone of this be better than a single spore? Remember spores can move and burrow pretty quick.

Also, queens are the priority target on a cloacked rush, so getting them to be detectors make them more priority target.



no I'm sorry, but spore crawlers do not move and burrow pretty quick
bad with girls, good with zerg

for those that dont know, there is a custom map on battlenet that lets you play the hots build. i played it earlier and i gotta say, 100/200 is pretty fucking ridiculous. your forced to defend if (in this example) protoss goes for dt's until you got the viper out, its so stupid. but idk, maybe its not and it will just take a new playstyle of zerg to utilize it fully

It would be good to define "near" in "need viper near the unit"

Not sure this needs a definition. The ocular parasite (which gives the unit detection) is a spell of the viper and the receiving unit needs to be close. Whether it has 7 or 10 range, e.g., does not really matter in contrast to making an Overseer from an Overlord.

I think zerg is screwed on scouting now. Zerg complains about early game scouting, so they buff overseer to make it quicker (less gas)... then they remove it in HOTS.

What the fuck are we supposed to do. Fly an extremely expensive and slow viper over their base?

Overlord speed needs to decreased in time and cost to make up for this. Or just keep the damn overseer.

if they buff overlord speed to be on par with a speed upgraded overseer then id have no problem in the scouting department.
