I mean Zerg needs retooling to be less reliant on technical spellcaster armies and just more, Zergy I guess. Least to my tastes anyway.

It is something that’s happened in SC2, Protoss are much less reliant on forcefields than they were in the days of yore, although they’re still a factor they got other options and were less reliant on it over time.


The last time they thought about it they created swarmhosts, please no?

They need to start with a decision what is queen. Whether queens are defensive units, offensive units, macro boosters, speed/vision boosters or healers. They can't be EVERYTHING at once, they cannot be the answer to almost everything. And start from there and replace some of their roles with different unit(s) and/or buildings(or their upgrades).
IMO
I imagine France should be able to take this unless Lilbow is busy practicing for Starcraft III. | KadaverBB is my fairy ban mother.

Zest, sOs, PartinG, Dark, and Maru are the real champs. ROOT_herO is overrated. Snute, Serral, and Scarlett are the foreigner GOATs

Actually, both Rogue and Mizenhauer agree on that.
They should be on the same side!

I can't believe Zerg players would latch onto a minor comment about Serral to try and derail this important discussion about balance


I can't understand your point there as the discussion is long concluded and zerg 100% being nerfed in the next patch...

there is no player that honestly says Zerg is balanced right now..
So yeah. I think the most interesting is Rogue thinking he can beat Serral in a long series with macro-game. And I also think it's not true at all at the time being.

I haven't posted really since like 2012, but why does TL ban memes. Let the people have some fun. We need the playerbase to have fun to keep this game alive and not warn/banhammer anyone that tries to make a joke or poke fun at someone.

Because a good meme is great but most people make terrible memes and spam them

I know it sounds surprising but since May 2017, Rogue has had 65.52% winrate against Koreans offline, including a 76.52% winrate against Korean protoss offline. I did not know he was that strong against protoss.

I feel like anyone who has paid even a passing bit of attention to SC2 over the last 3 years knows Rogue is good at ZvP when he's in form.

I gotta ask, for T vs, Z, why not bring back Irradiate?

It only works vs Biological, it wouldnt break TvP, i dont know what unit to put it on, i guess Raven? To replace Hunter missles?

Late game splash?


Well, the Viper pretty much has irradiate already. Would be weird if 2 races have the same spell.

Terran has the new EMP and on a cloaked unit. I feel there can be done so much more with that than what we've been shown so far.

Protoss needs a similar upgrade for HT's feedback range. Full energy Infestors would die. Every other Infestor just will be like "go home, you are drunk"
Also Protoss would still need Observers, which I think makes this a somewhat fair and cool to watch interaction




huh? maybe you didnt play broodwar.....

Parasitic bomb is an Anti air splash spell.. Irradiate was an ANTI - BIOLOGICAL spell that didnt affect mech units. Like parasitic bomb wrecks Vikings, irradiate would be useless vs those.

What does the EMP do for TvZ lategame? I'm talking Irradiate to counter clumps of Zerg, like broods, Corruptors especially, Ultras big ass roach balls, ect....


I did and I know


Broodlords:
Wouldn't it be kind of funny that everytime Broodlings spawn, the BL loses health? Like not paying with minerals like Carriers but with HP.
5 HP per wave or sth. So if you want to besiege something, after 8-10 rounds of Broodlings, you have go to back and regen health again.
Go Serral! GG EZ for Ence. Flashbang dance FTW
