In SC2 you can control all your mutas at once which makes all of this moot. You get the first volley off, you win the game instantly. Plus Muta micro in SC2 is nothing compared to Muta micro in BW. | ||

I'm not a fan of buffing static defense because I feel it cripples the different ways Mutas can be used. Yeah, I would actually really like to see Scourge added to the game. Makes ZvZ more interesting, gives more options vs late game Skytoss. Everyone wins! | ||

Also, they haven't even proposed a change to the hellbat (drops) which are even more cheesy than oracle | ||

Oh you wanted to move out later with any kind of bio? Better get a raven or you will have to scan 15 times to get across the map, or you will die to baneling burrow. The sky isn't falling. And don't worry, your 57-43 winrate TvZ will largely remain untouched. | ||

While it's interesting how razor-thin and upgrade-dependent muta vs muta is, it doesn't show on the screen. It's very difficult to 'read' or decipher who is ahead or behind, and boring when EVERY ZvZ seems to come down to who was able to make the most mutas. Yeah cause watching people camp at static defense is exciting from a spectator's point of view... Just went in to try on some roach burrow rush, you'll be able to have atleast 6 roaches with burrow at opponents natural at 5:30, 11 at 6:45. Promoting more 1base play seems to be an awesome way to make it a better game, gj Blizzard. | ||

Absolutely must make turrets now. and is in danger of losing entire armies to bane mines now because EVERY zerg will take advantage of it. God forbid Terran players have to play somewhat scared! The other two races live in constant fear of medivacs, mines, hellbats, even banshees still. Zero sympathy.

AND if it stays muta vs muta this means that if you're behind just sit above 3 spore crawlers and the muta player thats ahead can not kill you for any reason. Its just going to reward really really bad players and create a horribly stale play. | ||

Okay, so you're comfortable abusing Robo openers, I get that. Should Stargates be dangerous? Should Oracles be a game-changer? | ||
