    Cheese idea: burrow banelings in the mineral line (so as not to block the expansion/alert the opponent) of expansions not yet taken by your opponent. Once saturated you unburrow/detonate some 2-4 banelings you placed there in advance.

      @@JohnHenryJones-u1r Mules actually cannot attack, only Mine or Repair, They CAN be used in combat late game when you're very rich and can afford to waste them by being an extra unit at the front to distract and draw enemy fire, they can be used to block ramps to stop an enemy retreating from a bad fight, and they can be dropped on an enemies army near their own deployed Siege Tanks to Cause those tanks to fire at them and splash a lot of damage onto the enemy army as your other units move in to engage.

    You could potentially send in your lings and burrow before the lurkers when playing vs terran to bait out scans, then unborrow run them further in and burrow again to get another scan. Then hit with the lurkers, maybe bait with the remaining zerglings by running them to the lurkers you snuck into the back with the overlord.

    In the last game the lurker drop is too funny and I am gonna start doing it... But after you killed his reapers if you had a baneling drop follow up I think you would have won that with baneling or muta follow up too. His lack of vision and being fooled into (what I 100% would have thought) a baneling bust/ling flood scenario.... Anything flying into the main would have wrecked him...

    Lurkers are the main reason that Terran and Protoss are (usually) better off building an air army vs Zerg.
    I still want to see a half-hearted Ravager bust into into Mutalisks, as a cheese. It's basically Muta/Ling/Bane, except with Roaches/Ravagers instead of Banelings. When you have to defend the rear bases against Mutas and the front bases against Ravagers breaking your walls, something will give way and the Zerg will get in.

    • @murphy54000
      @murphy54000 Рік тому

      I slightly disagree for a complete air army, but it's definitely beneficial to have some air *units* at least. You shouldn't transition into fully air until you see proof of lurkers unless that was your plan in the first place.

      @Zeratultheking Рік тому +1

      I think because it takes so much longer to get online. BW, its just lair + den + an upgrade, den doesn't require lair just pool so can be made same time as lair. In SC2 its Lair ->Hydra den->lurker den + upgrades to get them efficient. So significantly longer to do so. The only reason it comes "faster" in SC2 is because you start with 12 workers vs the 4 in BW so a lot of the time is just getting economy up. If you started with 12 in BW you would have lurkers up by 3 min.

    I had a nits flst screen when flat screens first came out as Samsung was too expensive... when I upgraded it a decade later... there was so many more colours and tonal range.... the k ky down side to hdmi and the new cables is that it limits data speed as I found parallel ports with the chunky blue screws is faster speed. As the hdmi could have up to 5mms or more delay. Huge in fps playing.. so you are not seeing g what is actually going on I the computer the delay made no sense to me, lol.
    Upgrading monitor that is built for gaming it can be super smooth, but sometimes the software uses a frame filler or blur to make it smoother, which creates minor delays to render lag... I would rather have it come from the source rather then a secondary degradation, but for a TV show that's not live playing works great.
