QUOTE(Moonflown @ Aug 4 2010, 09:19 PM) Too bad I didn't play SC1, but in SC2 I know units will make attacking units their priority initially. Unless you move your overlord forward before muta, if not they will still aim muta. Another fun tactic I used was using muta to force thors use air shots while minimizing damages to my roaches/hydra I think you got me wrongly  What I meant is muta stacking as alertz says. Normally u group 11 muta + 1 ovie (SC1) to stack 11 mutas and 1 shot kill with the patrol button. Tried doing it a few times, not very effective with it in SC2.

Oh okay, since I don't even know what that means.
I've just watched a 1.5 hours game between a zerg and terran. Ended up a draw.

Yea I'm still pretty upset about the 2 food. But roaches are a good way to burn the excess minerals that Zerg always has. They are really good tanks for hydra even on mid-late games.
Ohya infestors, I remember there's an achievement call zerglots ._.

I felt that zerg is among the least played currently, at least that's what I felt when I tried to seek for a good replay from a zerg match, mostly being between terran and toss

Played a game and accidentally gave that Terran player " a little " too much time, his base is solid with anti-air and the entrances are blocked by siege/marine teams. And he enjoys dropping thors at my expansions. Any counters for a heavily fortified terran base, besides blockading them ?
Added on August 9, 2010, 2:42 amOh btw, i hate thors backed by stimpacked marines. =_=

How essential is baneling given that they are mass marine marauders? Find it hard to counter MM when they are being mass.. ling just dies like crap
btw, early upgrade are essential for zerg? since they are not too pricey
