Do you think with this buff Zerg will be Overpowered?

I personally find this quite disturbing, Blizzard has taken Zerg player's QQ way too far, and released a new buff in the upcoming patch. This has the potential to break the game.

Hopefully blizzard comes to their senses and reverses this pronto, as it will make zerg the most played and most powerful race in Starcraft 2. People will flock to Zerg in droves, and we will be collecting Terran and Protoss Tears soon.

Edit: It is worse than we thought. All the other races are doomed!!!!!

Even day 9 realizes how powerful this buff will be, and thinks its a welcome change strangely enough!

Lol, I wish there was a patch coming soon. In all seriousness, Zerg DOES need some buffs to their melee units and mutalisks.

Zerg is perfectly fine when you can have a complete unit composition that counters your opponent. Btw zerg has the biggest advantage of having overlord placement all around the map giving you vision. Sacrificing a overlord to see what they are building mid-game isn't bad either.
Lookin for people to play.

The trouble is GETTING that unit composition, and the fact that it takes so long to tech for zerg. A counter arguement for this is the fact that zerg "unlocks" units, instead of making buildings that produce units, which makes it easier to tech switch. Which I think, doesn't really help them at all. Mutalisks aren't really good at fighting, and they're gas intensive, zerglings are almost useless past early game unless you use a TON of larvae on them which could be used better on other things.

Now we need the cut scene that shows the overlords in space overlaid with day9's impersonation of them.
