The difference with WOL is that you now actually need to put the same effort in the game as the terran. And that hurts, I get that. But to cry that it's terran favoured because you can't 1a anymore, is just ridicilous. and again you are embarrassing yourself :D | ||

Marine mine = burrow, targetfire, make sure you don't hit own marines, split. Marine tank is actually easier than marine mine. It's not like you just have to burrow and than watch everything blow up. You need good targetfires. | ||

You need good targetfires. what?? getting out with a marine tank army to the opponent is already way harder to do. using drops to mislocate their army positioning etc. protecting the tanks against muta harass etc dealing with counter attacks was much harder as well | ||

With tanks you select all your tanks, siege, then shift right click the banelings. That doesn't work with mines: you need to target fire with each of them. About the counter attacks: that's true. But controlling marine mine is really not easier than controlling marine tank. | ||

If you go ling/infestor you get crushed by bio/mine because infestors aren't as good as they used to be. Like you act like we zergs are just sticking to wol strats, no if that were true we would be doing ling/infestor into bl/corr/infestor. No zergs are experimenting and trying other stuff, but non muta play in zvt makes zvt a lot harder. zvp you see lots of zerg uses with vipers/swarmhosts/mutalisks/etc. Like I don't think you know what you are talkinga bout. Quick to get on with the balance whining aren't we? ^^ I can't help but notice when Zerg was overpowered for like the last 6-9 months of WoL or so that on your post signet you had something like "balance whining should not exist on team liquid". More like you do not want balance whining when its not in your favour. I only mention this as I see you posting in just about every thread in the last few years on tl.. Not that I have a problem with balance whining, every should feel free to express themselves, but hypocrites just annoy the fuck out of me. On topic, looks pretty good apart from ZvT in Korea. Will be interesting to see how that match up devolpos over there in the next few months. | ||

But controlling marine mine is really not easier than controlling marine tank. naw dog using tanks was insanely hard, if you lost your tanks, you where just fucked for the rest of the game, so you always had to make battle plans and position your army well, with mines its just like yolo to their third base. Tank play was always about drawing the army away, getting into the right spot, kiting marines while targeting banes, and then once things got really close, you had to decide to use your tanks as meat shields for your marines or just fight it out and let the tanks do the damage. mines are just so much easier when it comes into battle, as long as you have them spread a little you just have to burrow, they do the rest by just zoning. | ||

They are just threads that I happened to read today so I can only assume this is going on a fair bit. | ||

They are just threads that I happened to read today so I can only assume this is going on a fair bit. "from this person" shows how little you realize who you're talking about. Blade is one of the biggest contributors to the TL forums, and yes, he plays Zerg, and he does it well. He puts together tons of guides and often participates in fruitful discussions on how to play better, experiment with less popular units and is generally a huge boon to this community. And you come in here trying to act like he's some nobody crying about balance. If you want to argue things are fine, go ahead, but don't start accusing people of being balance whiners when they're pointing out that things are not fine. I agree with Blade, Zerg is UP again. SH are the slowest unit in the game, Infestors are actually worse than they were on release of WOL at this point, Corruptors have always sucked, Hydras are still usually not worth using, and Vipers have proven to be lackluster. I am not ready to cry imba just yet, but these stats don't surprise me at all. Claiming that Zergs aren't using all their options sounds like arguments back at the release of WOL, and it has all the same causes. Zerg options are there, but they suck. | ||

Also, we shouldn't just be examining win/loss ratios superficially; but also the nature of said wins/losses This. Whats relevant is : - The highest level (to the point that the Korea winrates, even if they are established on a small sample basis, are more relevant than the 6000 + games of aligulac) Im not saying PvZ and TvZ are broken, but it definitely says : either Z is UP or Z progamers are bad / playing the wrong metagame. - The winrate on standard games which is even lower. Again, could also mean that zerg players didnt find the right metagame yet.. The better tool we have right now is time and seeing how the metagame evolves. I personnaly think that Blizzard left us a really raw game with HoTs which needed A LOT OF changes. I was surprised the game wasnt patch at the beginning, now Im less surprised because I understand BLizzard philosophy : letting the metagame evolve during long period of time before patching. | ||
