And I don't think that Korean Zergs are behind in the meta either, although it might be that Korean Terrans & Protosses are ahead of their non-Korean equivalents (in both meta and skill). [ Larvae is definitely the reason Ling/Bane/Muta isn't more popular and that style has the most umph mid game. Fair enough, but doesn't change the fact that this would make WCS even more of a ZvZ fest. | ||

The leading suggestion to test on this front so far is bringing the spawn larva count up from 3 to 4. Damn, this is bad. I hope Blizzard can find an alternative change for Zerg other than this 'leading suggestion.' | ||

If it happens to be too extreme after internal testing, then I would recommend making larvae spawn a bit faster. A liberator range nerf and an adept nerf also might help (like really) if the larvae change seems op. | ||

I would love if they tested an increased larva spawn rate on the hatchery before going back to 4 per inject. This would also make macro hatches more attractive. | ||

Zerg is stuck with hots units (lurker is debatable, but overall not usable) while protoss has an addition of an adept which has insane harass and allin potential (especially with a new prism) and disruptor that is the ONLY reason all zergs are forced to play ling bane, which again are countered by adepts alone. And then they got air deathball. Good to be protoss nowadays. Odd... I can't remember the last time my PvZ winrate wasn't below 30%. Oh wait, yes I do. Back in HotS. Protoss does not need nerfing at all, PvT is in a nice spot but PvZ has been horrific since beta and the collossus buff hasn't helped a bit. All Zerg have to do is continue to tech switch and harrass expansions that Protoss can't defend and win easily. Upping the larva spawn rate isn't going to fix TvZ issues at all while making PvZ even more problematic. Blizz need to identify what exactly is causing the issue (I bet it's liberators or something) and nerf accordingly. | ||

While this might come as a bit of a surprise, we’re still getting a lot of feedback from specific Korean pro players that Zerg has no chance vs. Terran. "no chance" is a pretty strong choice of wording, considering Dark went 3-2 against Innovation last night. | ||

Protoss has the upperhand vs Zerg as well (albeit way less drastically than in TvZ) all of the changes proposed by Blizz in the feedback are aimed at Korean pro level, since that's the only scene relevant to balance On June 11 2016 04:46 Kinky wrote: "no chance" is a pretty strong choice of wording, considering Dark went 3-2 against Innovation last night. the best Zerg and top 4 player in the world barely winning a bo5 vs someone who didn't qualify for Code S last season and this one didn't even qualify for SSL. Go figure. | ||

Dark being probably the best zerg in the world, and winning by the skin of his teeth 3-2 after what looked like a won game for Innovation who took really bad fights, incomprehensibly, I wouldn't let this series be an indicator of zerg being able to rival terran. | ||

Why would you build banelings against immortals. The banelings are there to beat adepts, and they do a pretty good job at it. On June 11 2016 04:44 KatatoniK wrote: Odd...

Your PvZ winrate is about as relevant to the balance of the game as the weather forecast. | ||
