Funny since I am winning ZVZ's thanks to my superior economy usually :D Even when I am in less bases. We should play some serious ZVZ's sometimes. Tomorrow, maybe?

Haha. Your ZvZ is just weird. I've still yet to see anyone else do that crazy turtling style you do. :p

Definitely can play some games if I'm on. I hardly ever have time to play on weekdays but I should be on this weekend for sure.

You can't sum up a matchup in a few rules, also what you're able to do at a low level won't work at higher ones.

Yeah, I wasn't being very serious. My build has about 5 variations that differ based on what is happening and what I scout.

I think Roach/Ling timing attacks on hatch tech are crazy strong, though. I'm looking forward to finding a player that beats my build soundly.

Yeah, I was rewatching the Nestea vs Dimaga game when I decided to refine my older ZvZ playstyle and model it more around Nestea's style. My success in ZvZ tonight is a testament to the strength of Roach/Ling timing attacks. Cant say I'm a fan of opening hatch first, though. It feels way too unsafe.

I hear marines are pretty good out of 7 rax

I hear hellions and tanks are pretty good out of factories. Cant forget BCs either

BCs are garbage for a transitioning from bio-mech/bio in late game tvt or tvp

Marines into BCs. Don't see where hellions fit into that.

Might be hard. A lot of neurals would be needed to build the cc

Not that many, only like 8 or 9.

Not as difficult as playing zerg and nuking someone after they come out of a vortex you placed down on their own army.

Played my first season 2 matches yesterday. It's funny, my APM was probably 1,5, but I feel that I played very balanced games. Won all five quite easily.

Also it seems that my zerg beta build with 4-6 queens is now hot shit thanks to spanishiwa :b

Cause scrub zerg players aren't good enough to get into Master league?

Nope, because as time has gone on the state of the game for Z has improved, and I feel will only get better. I wouldn't be surprised if there was another buff or two just in the next patch Blizzard plans alone.

What's the overal %age of races in Masters and Grand Masters at the moment ?

Looks good for Zerg. Seems odd for Terran though.

And I do not live in a bizzarro world. If you aren't counting beta, which you shouldn't because it's just that, a beta, then you can see from retail the game has improved for Zerg players to play in. From the maps, to the nerfs to the other races, and then throw in some gradual buffs... you'd be high to not think the game has not gotten better for Zerg players as time has gone on bit by bit.

I see that to continue too as time goes on.

Interesting to see how much terran drops after bronze.

not as much interesting as perfectly logical.

people try out the multi after the single player, stick to what they know, lose horribly a couple of times then never touch the game again.

That's a reasonable point. I saw it more as people switching after getting out of Bronze League to another race.

That's what I ended up doing. Terran just isn't for me. I'm not able to keep up with their way of macro as well as Zerg or Protoss.
