Zergs need queens anyways to macro so making them good at defending every thing terran can throw at them early game has completely killed TvZ. TvZ was all about punishing the zerg for droning too hard so that his economy doesn't explode, forcing him to make units. As Crota once said "Zerg pretty much has a hall pass to drone up to 80 nowadays" | ||

Here in America, when youre in school (little children age) and you need to go to the bathroom, or go to the admin office, you get a "hall pass" from your teacher and that way if youre caught in the hall (or zerg caught with just drones and no defense) you have your hall pass so you dont get in trouble (and zerg has their queens/better scouting/early aggression nerfs to terran) | ||

Terrans will find a way to adapt don't worry. And what was zerg doing during that period? QQing, I don't see any reason for terrans not to QQ now. | ||

Terrans will find a way to adapt don't worry. No offence, but with all the nerfs we've had so far... That's what terrans have been doing for about 2 years already. Now after the billionth nerf (or buff for the others >__>) has hit, we're desperately starting to run low on units we can run to for survival. We can't snipe, we can't burn, we can't gun down, we can't blow up nor stampede with mech. We've got nuts. NOTHING. we can't expand faster, we can't attack, nor can we defend anymore. A zerg can get enough banelings for a safe win faster than a terran can get the tanks he needs to shoot them all down. It's become absolutely ridiculous. My MMR dropped from high plat/low Dia to barely winning against silver. I've lost basically all of my last 30 TvZ's. I even lost to a fucking zerg that thought I was a protoss ffs. That's like two and a half leagues lower because of a single buff. How is that balanced?!? These patches hit the lower leagues way harder than the top. Top players can often just muscle through with micro but we can't. Even worse is the fact that Z now seems to occupy about 60% of the ladder. 30% toss and maybe 10% terran. Toss isn't particularly great either. The upgrades buff and obs buff were overkill. How is it fair that toss gets faster, cheapers upgrades when they don't even have tech paths. And I've never even heard anybody whine about toss scouting. They had illusion phoenix and obs weren't hard to get at all... | ||

which forces the terran player into some kind of 1 rax or cc first opening, while the zerg will instantly see it with his overlord (not even needs to sacrifice it on most maps) and then zerg will just press the drone button like a BOSS, and after like 9 mins in the game,.just before the first real pushes from a fast expanding terran can come, the zerg will be ahead about 15 or 20 workers most of the time. As well the harassment vs zerg needs to be by far more cost effective then against terran or toss, because once u go for like 2-3 cloaked banshee, a good zerg will just know that this delays every possible timing push for at least 2 more minutes, which means it gives him 2 more minutes to produce only drones, so even if ur banshees force like 3 spore and 2 queens and kills about 5 workes, the zerg will be even more ahead in economy after, because he just insta builds like 20 drones as soon as he sees ur 3 cloaked banshees, if hes smart. as well i think, zerg was allways the race with the biggest potential cuz ur so flexible, and now where zergs just figured out everything the opponent can do and are very good at timings + better scouting possibilitys + bigger maps, the zergs know exactly how much drones they can produce without getting caught with their pants down | ||

Considering how little was invested into the hellions and how powerful they were for minerals only they were making the game stale. Zergs was playing pretty blind at times before the overlord speed buff/queen buff. Perhaps both was not needed. Maybe theyll bring back the old blue flame? It was not OP, zergs just couldn't have cared less about trying to gain map control, only massing drones. With both of these new changes now zergs CAN mass drones without having to worry about any sort of map control or threat whatsoever. It's fine though players like MVP will still find ways to win at the gsl, he is just too smart. No matter how hard Blizzard nerfs terran the korean players still find ways to win lol. | ||
