Make enough infestors to NP every single one-- that is a sad battle for the Terran player. Ummm.. what? So you NP every single one, then wait 12 seconds, then die when they all come back under the Terran control? | ||

How do infestors counter tanks? 13 > 9. Not trying to be a dick, as I'm probably just missing something, but every time I've tried to get infestors vs Tank support, they just get splattered, even if they manage to get 1-2 NP off. edit: damnit, sorry for double post, I meant to edit this into my first one, but just forgot. doh. | ||

Have you found any difference? - nothing so far, still been winning all games and its easy ride with blue flame on drones every game into thor+stuff -been playing roach+queen+infestor in zvz, roach hydra corrupter in zvp and vs terran i like roach ling infestor vs mech play and vs bio i use banes lings and mutas. once they start mix stuff then i start doing that aswell, popular style is thor+stuff where i find just massing tons and tons of stuff very good, i like roaches alot, i guess cause its very easy to macro them and r kind of newb friendly in the battle  -eu only | ||

It used to be, when Terran got tanks every game against everything. Now that they are a bit worse, they might actually not have anything to snipe the Infestor from across the map, meaning that it might actually survive for a part of the twelve seconds. They are still kind of "meh" against colossi, due to their ridiculous range, though. Having the infestor die a fraction of a second after starting channeling is kind of demotivating. | ||

But i think the main reason is that most zergs don't get enough infestors to NP every single thor in a larger group, which really is needed for NP to be effective (ideal would be about 2-3 more infestors than thors, since you can FG the remaining infantry to prevent infestor sniping, this is pretty micro intense though) since they're so gas heavy. | ||

If you decide that you like Zerg better and switch to Zerg for tournaments, I will name my firstborn son after you. Good luck. | ||

Banelings require micro to set up flanks and one can even do tricksy tricks like duping players into stimming or FFing when they don't need to ... "1-right-click" is great for feints but it rarely ever goes down like that when you are going in for the kill. I would definetly 1a when I split, say, 6 banelings into two groups of three and then 1a, 2a from two sides of the mineral line. | ||

6th October Rating: Diamond 1390 Replay pack: none gonna play terran fulltime for 1-3 weeks to wrap up my last going tournaments with hopefully nice results. i have decided to switch to zerg so i will stop sign up for new tournaments until i am at least 2k rating with zerg. once i finish these ongoing tournaments i will start practice zerg with all my practice time sry for no replay pack. will start updating this thread once im back on track with z there is a possibility that i decide to switch back to terran once again in the future but as it is right now im pretty convinced that i want to be a zerg user Awsome! Good luck playing zerg MorroW | ||
