Hell, lets see if HM can turn on his God Mode and bring down Serral tonight. aligulac is perfect for matchups like this, where both players don't play in small online tournaments too much. Bunny has been improving rapidly lately, and his rating might not reflect that, but still I think the prediction is accurate, just because it doesn't seem like Serral loses to Terrans besides Clem | ||

I just see ugly playing from both sides I m not expert of PvZ but it seems to be hard of harvesting gas and get in the early game enought cost-effective units to counter queens/roachs. In this kind of composition, which is beefy, Zerg player is only spending 25 gas per roaches and can obtain for free gas a complementary unit while roaches could be pretty useless, queens are the swiss-knife for free gas and can compensate for the shortcomings of such unit in all areas | ||

I believe he's trying to say that immortals and zealots are bad against roaches. | ||

If he's queen walking across the map with roaches, he isn't building mutas any time soon now, is he? I mean, get some Phoenix if you're afraid of a muta follow up, but generally it's failed queen walk into gg long before mutas are an option. | ||

Invest in mass queens without spending gas, is best option for Zerg since Queens are scaling so well until end game while zerglings (not so bad ...) and roachs (to a lesser extent) could be a waste of larva in the future. From what I can observe, queens become a counterweight to opponnent development despite their big weakness is their speed of movement without creep, we have seen that a player like Serral is capable to spread the creep in less than 7 minutes over most of the map, at this point, we are barely in the middle of the game (Zerg philosophy is about units with big weakness and very specialized and i assume Queens hasn t so much DPS but Protoss seems to lack 'burst' as a bio-ball could) Protoss don't have enough tools to roll back creep (and I'm only talking about high-level esports ...) since their technological development is the slowest, they have more difficulty responding globally to the variation of Zerg composition. Its versatility weakens the strategic options of the Protoss and makes other Zerg units unattractive in gas investment ... From this hypothesis, the queen overlaps a little on all other units because she fills all the roles moderately (which is contrary to the Zerg philosophy) and therefore counteracts all the other units. This is a problem because the protoss is not able to drive anything, except by all-ins. As for the Zerg player is guaranteed to go all the way to the end of the game, carry by a versatile unit for 0 gas. | ||

It's like saying it's imbalanced that roaches can't kill Carriers I don't understand what is so difficult to understand, the quality of an army must be slightly more dependent on gas than on mineral, if the Protoss army demands too much gas while zerg only have to put the gas in upgrades or buildings, it seems obvious that zerg player take even less risk to play even though it is already the race where there is the least risk to play thanks to tumors and their lighting on map Even assuming that the Zerg is still the most harvesting race, there are times when you see matches where the Zerg is still alive while it has wasted a ton of resources swapping un-costeffective units just in order to slow down the development of his opponent. What is really ridiculous is the few clever arguments against the cost of the queen ... Not so long ago, i read the idea of consider creep tumor as a building, which means, Zerg has to create the tumors like the other building, morphing a drone. That s said, it could demand some adjustement but at least Zerg would care a little bit more about the defense along the edge/frontier of their mucus. It s a really good idea, the writer of this idea thought to limit the number of iteration process, but if you allow in this proposition, to re-create a tumor (when the last tumor is killed) from any other tumors (and not only the last one), you could describe a very better system of creep than actually. | ||

That is a very deep cut into the system as it is right now. I'd rather have a Queen limit introduced, like 2 Queens per Hatchery if it comes down to it. | ||
