Nowadays it is very evident that Zergs are very dominant in many tournaments, for example IPL 5, GSL , and the on going Blizzard cup. Sniper being the recent GSL champion. Life before that. Leenock winning IPL 5. Vortix winning THOR OPEN.

Even the most consistent Terran player Mvp got eliminated int he Blizzard cup. Now in the round of 6 there are MVP_DongRaeGu (Z) , Startale_Life (Z), Azubu_Violet (Z) and the only Protoss player Startale_Parting. And FXO_Leenock (Z) is guaranteed a spot in the round of 4.

What do you guys think about this? Zerg too ''OP'' ?

Just wait for the new terrans to show how to beat zerg. Most of terrans didnt go far recently prepatch. But postpatch, we will see more and more terrans, wait for some months.

Polt is back, Bomber is strong as never before, Flash is becoming a beast... Dont worry :p

TL has different standards than reddit mate. Threads like this are a no-no.

not op - it's just too hard to put early pressure that cripples them in the mid or late game, and that pays off to execute

early game is too turtly

I opened TL and was immediately stunned. A thread about zerg being too strong? What is this completely biased, absolutely not evident at all madness? I thought whining about the immortal/sentry all in was the flavor of the month?

In other news, pretty much everybody will agree with you if you say that zerg is too strong. It just doesn't deserve a thread.

Wait, you see a thread with the title "Zerg too strong?" and you really expect intelligent responses?
Just ahead of time, know your addiction's not a crime. It's just a smaller part of who you want to become in the end.

No I just like to point out how unintelligent some responses are.
