Relative to BW, I think there are two changes that could make ZvZ less Muta dominated:

1) Spores have +15 vs biological
2) Queens also provide a bit of an extra AA defense.

This should make Hydras heavy vs Muta better (ceteris paribus). It might not be enough ofc - time will tell.

They do have bonus vs bio. Also, banelings changes ZvZ compared to BW.

I think a community website + ladder will make Starbow self-sustainable. Kinda like iccup.com. We are working on that and hopefully that will make a vibrant community. I agree. We don't have to be the next DoTA, just enough players to find an opponent and have fun.


This and sorry, but I love ZvZ, was my favourite match up in BW, SC2 and is in Starbow, if you don't like it, don't play ZvZ? (If you play in a tourney or something you could race pick if ZvZ comes up and if you like the other two matchups enough)

Also, I don't go around and call TvT a

- Mutalisks clumping adjusted so they spread out a little bit more

Nooo, I just learned to split them perfectly on the old system, Nooooooo^^.

- Irradiate damage reverted from 120 over 20 sec to 180 damage over 30 sec.


150 to give lurker a chance would have been nice, well I guess a missed chance, pun intended. Also, change it back to broodwar levels without changing back dark swarm, lets see how that plays out, for now I am skeptical.

To not address Hydra vs Spidermines breaks my heart, QQ.

edit:Update after testing the Muta clumping, you ruined it. On the old system you could stack them as tight as broodwar mutas, if you needed to spread them, you just had to have them at full speed, then hit hold position and they would spread enough to pick out the iradiated, now they don't stack as well and they won't spread at all the old way, is there a new way of spreading or did you just remove micro potential from your game?


I'm pretty sure people will figure out a new way of spreading, try playing around with selected units that don't move, larvae is a good choice because they count as units and not structures. I'm thinking there's a way to manipulate Mutas that the devs don't even realize, do some experimentation, you might find something cool.


I already did countless times, I was pretty happy when I found the highspeed slowdown, but now it got "balanced", on the other hand, maybe you need no more way to spread, they are far enough appart now to just pick the one you want with 90%+ accuracy, just overall a change that has not grown on me and feels like removed micro, maybe muta's were too strong in their "superclump", but that was while irradiate could not kill a single one of them.

sairs need some tinkering, they die too easily vs muta/scourge unless u have +1 and a shitload of them. but sairs are meant to control z's air in the early game..

I always try and watch your stream, but since you didn't stream replays, would you mind sending me your replays vs Zergs?

I've also noticed this. Even with the fast +1 air weapons that became popular towards the end of BW (Bisu still does it a lot on Afreeca) you can't kill scourge that effectively. Becomes a little to difficult to deal with muta sniping on templar if even corsairs aren't adequate to deal with zerg air.

Scourges do 110 damage, 30% from that is small AoE damage, and have 35 HP instead of 25 HP. Maybe they should remove the AoE or remove the bonus HP and leave them at 25?

I dont think tanks are doing any splash damage to units under dark swarm tho, maybe other units too (firebats, archons, lurkers) should prolly check that out.

I also feel tanks are particularly useless in Swarm compared to BW.

I figured that they need AoE to prevent too much stacking and to force the enemy to spread and actually micro. But large amount of Corsais usually kill them before they manage to hit them.

As far as I know other do but Tanks don't.
