Hero: Kkkk Shin: ? Shin: Why is it always Shin: Zerg get nerfed? Shin: While making changes to Protoss and Terran Hero: Kkkkkk

[@oldmanback7821]

Shin: Spicy? Hero: Yes. Hero: Not going there (I assume they're talking about the Oracle being deflected by the spore and queen)

One of my favourite things about Pig casting the lovechild of Dark and sOs is pulling your hair out over his playstyle only for it to nearly always work out for him anyway. You hit levels of frustration and hype when you cast her0 that we don't see with other players. The rollercoaster of emotion is hilarious to listen to.

[@benwot13]

@pig 0:08 in game 1 Shin also went for a 14 hatch, which put him behind economically while Hero didn't probe scout, adding to the compounding losses

Im just here to listen to PiG talk about Hero's balls

I think Mutalisks should get an upgrade. Option 1: Spire Upgrade This upgrade would let Mutalisks carry 2 supply worth of units. Queens could be included, though that would likely be for very committed attacks. For example, if 15-20 Mutalisks dropped Zerglings, Banelings, Roaches, or Hydralisks into the enemy base, the Mutalisks would be harder to focus down. They could strike, force a response, and then move to another base, leaving the dropped units to be cleaned up. Afterward, they could reload and repeat the tactic. While Banelings with this would be powerful, it would be a heavy gas investment, especially since Mutalisks can only carry one Baneling each. Option 2: Spire Upgrade This upgrade would allow each Mutalisk to “leash” one Overlord variant, like a Dropper Lord or Overseer, so it could move with the Mutalisks at their speed. This would make Mutalisks strong mobility supports while also increasing the utility of Dropper Lords. Splash damage would still be a major threat, as Dropper Lords don’t heal as quickly as Mutalisks. The overall goal is to make Mutalisks more versatile and synergistic while maintaining counterplay options for opponents.

I think muties are OP!

Pig - BM also means Bowel Movement... :)

Is it just me or is storm just weak? looks like you need 3 storms and for the enemy to just sit in it to just kill one roach. Commentators make such a big deal when storm lands but on screen it looks like it just tickles the enemy army and does almost nothing.

[@neverstopexploring7772]

It would be crazy if one storm whip out half of the enemy army, one HT can cast 3 storms... But i agree , to much hype. Storm is good vs zerg low HP units , in PvP its nothing, or PvT - terran step back and medivec heal up in second, only good when steam pack bio attacking and landing storm on them

[@chileung1108]

@@neverstopexploring7772 yup because the enemy will allow the slow 4ss moving HT to just walk around and land 3 storms... lets be real it's lucky to get one storm off before it dies. I think there is a middle ground between one storm wiping out half an army and "tickle tickle tickle"

[@neverstopexploring7772]

@@chileung1108 its decent dmg. Its more about how the enemy manage to micro out( specially the hidras) , in BW is big deal the good landing storm, in SC2 you have better options-colossus, the stupid disco ball and for static targets tempest. Storm on mineral line is also more BW style, oracle is way better and cheaper. I think Zerg need plague in SC2 🤣 half of the spells are useless now, parasitic bomb is joke

[@andrewduan5123]

It’s 80 damage in just under 3 seconds. Roaches are probably the worst unit to hit with storms apart from maybe ultras, but it’s anti air and anti grounds and it does a ton of damage in an aoe, that while you can dodge, it forces the Zerg to run away while you shoot them. Zerg needs to close into range and engage so storms will force the Zerg to kite or risk dying in like 2 shots.

[@orangepearlf40]

Plan d pig. What's plan d pig? - town... 😅

[@gabapc]

What about Serral and Reynor in the range x efficiency conversation?

[@azzy9358]

Hi PiG, Love your casts and knowledge. I started SC 2 again few days back and I was wondering, any chance you will ever do a bronze to GM only terran mech version? :D

[@dustinseth1]

As per your initial comments: yeah it was crazy. He was within an inch of beating Serral. If he doesn’t get those tempests biled it was lookin good. I’m ready for the reign of Hero.

[@andrewduan5123]

Voids but yeah. I remember watching live and pig called it so perfectly that the voids were at risk of being biled.

[@psykhecreativa]

herO is a Genius!

[@cowmath77]

Petition to make hydra a tier 1/hatch army unit. The complete lack of any army anti air units for Zerg early game is obnoxious.

[@neverstopexploring7772]

Give back to queen + 1 range?

[@xeanthomas5231]

What would it serve to have them? Queens and spores seem to do pretty well against oracles.
