LOL pretty much this... good thing he won


TBH he said the EXACT thing about ultralisks awhile back. And now they're one of the most used units in that matchup.


Sadly hydra are the worst unit in the zerg arsenal.
Tell me what scenario is hydra good against in ZvT and ZvP(only against double stargate)
They have degraded from being the iconic unit of zerg in BW to the worst unit in zerg arsenal.

Ultras are good if they are supported well(banes/infestor).
Although the A.I pathing for the Ultras still suck and the unit is too big and clunky.


Hellions were called useless and terrible against everything awhile back to.

Just saying.


Hellions are useful now after 2 years in the terran arsenal is it not?

Hydras after 2 years is still the worst unit in the zerg arsenal.

Just saying.

the problem is that Hydras were useful 2 years ago, but then players got better and now they are worthless exept in some ZvZ's and some very very narrow ZvP timings.

Is Terran okay against Zerg now?

I think we’re over it. In late game, battlecruisers supported by ravens can beat Zerg. The solution has been found.


Interesting comment. For some context, here's what Byun said about Terran a year ago:

- You will be facing another terran in the round of 8?
I don’t want to face either of them. One of them is the code A champion, and the other is the Supertournament champion, I don’t want to deal with either of them. I hate terrans.

- Why do you not like facing terrans?
Terran is OP.

- But you are terran?
That is why I switched races.

All we need now is for someone to show us how to consistently and safely reach BC/raven. I hope Byun leads the way. Go Byun!

Watch the GSTL game Sculp vs Symbol (NSHS vs TSL). It's a really good one, and Sculp shows some really good job at dealing with Zerg late game. Even better, he was behind before reaching the late game.

people were complaining banelings cost too much at 25 gas and infestors were massive garbage back in beta where zerg had expected you to let them to 3 base 70 drones for free. after all these buffs to zerg blizz still hasnt realised the problem was the maps back then.

Hellions had a time of dominance that they had to be nerfed.
Hydra's are the symbol of defeat.

You seemed to be taking it easy today.

The coach usually buys cheap $5 ‘Cheong Sim Hwan’ (T/N: herbal medicine that calms you down) but today he bought the good stuff.

It's official, Byun's doing drugs


That's exactly what I thought.

I'm just picturing Byun and the rest of Prime just blazing together, and getting walked in on by the Gom folks. Suddenly, MKP breaks out his signature dance and an impromptu dance party begins. LOL
