It's just that defiler 2.0 and Warhound(goliath in disguise) change my mind a little about sc2 future . I am looking forward to the games in hots .

Warhound and that hellion transformation makes me think of BW TvP mech opening is viable again. If Defiler 2.0 can consume units to spawn more dark swarm 2.0 ..... I am in lols . I can't help but think that doom drops are going to return in hots , imagine dropping defiler 2.0 and a pack of lings with it on a enemy natural or the main base .

I really think we won't see something like saviOr come to SC2 until at least another year down the road, if not more. The game really needs time for players that DIDN'T have prior RTS experience to approach the game from different viewpoints that don't directly flow with the meta-game. That's part of what it seems made saviOr so great, that he went against the grain in innovation. | ||

He should have won millions of times. I hate to say toss OP, but that game it just felt like the better player ( by far) lost.... hmmm.... I know Toss is supposed to be cost effectint, but at a 100 supply deficit? For several, several minutes..... maybe it isnt balance, but the way that "felt" was just akward. It looked like one player outplaying the other and loosing big anyways... blargh I watched it and looked at the supplies - Archon Toilet saved the day (twice). Army of BL + Corruptors + Ultralisk in toilet, then remaxed zerg unit toileted again. | ||

http://imgur.com/HuPeh http://imgur.com/i2Brh http://imgur.com/MzjhM if you ask me it's either hydra or soo. jd and effort's patterns are real different. hydra cause the starting hotkeys and spam are more similar, but he doesn't use 3/4 or hotkey past 7. whereas soo's starting setup is a little off, but uses 3/4 and 890, and his late game unit hotkeys are a lot more similar to aria. the other possibility is that this player wasn't even zerg in bw. i've never seen 1-0 hotkeyed at start as zerg before, whereas i've seen at least a couple of terrans do it. | ||

Things are looking very interesting in hots. I was pretty excited tosee this too, but from what I understood it's in fact more like dweb, which is a lot less powerful (especially in a game where bio play is the norm). The pull unit stuff looks pretty neat, but I'm not sold on it yet. As for management, one of the big difference between bw et sc2 is the queen, which has completely changed zerg economy (it made it much less interesting in my opinion, but oh well...). Management zerg in bw stems from good larva management. | ||

Management zerg in bw stems from good larva management. Imo they could easily fix the larva management part by making injected larvas temporary. That way you'd have to have both good mechanics and management, cause if you injected at the wrong time (when you were unable to convert those to units), then you would've wasted them. | ||

BW zerg just don't hotkey their whole army lategame, and keeping your hatches is more important. Funnier, Jaedong doesn't use hotkeys beyond 7, because he's a baller (and has small hands). Edit : I haven't watched de VOD, but from the charts above and the description, I'd say Hydra. Jaedong is clearly smarter than that trololol. | ||

 by.hero is a possibility, considering the massive apm; hero regularly has 400-500 apm in bw.nvm, he has a different account | ||
