Feel like you really had to just transiton to Brood Lord / Viper / (Corruptor/Hydra) at some point. Swarm Hosts are dogshit, a wildly overnerfed unit. (In this situation Neuro has a bank of literally 4000 gas he can afford a comp that doesn't normally exist) Like this dude literally has 20+ siegetanks why are you still producing ground units at all, and Roaches especially *yeah finally techs to BL/Viper at about 28 minutes and instantly wins the game on the spot (also because mech player lost his mind and suicided 20 cyclones into cracklings on creep)

Being able to see how many minerals each drone has mined would be amazing.

Wish you had shown that army engagement starting around 18:57. You cut them down to 144 supply.

Once I beat Neuro in sc2 that was the best achievement I have ever had in my life.

Sad life you got

The most important tip I can give to someone in lower league is spam changelings. The fact that the opponent has so many tanks makes scouting very hard. But knowing where the majority of the terran army is is soooo important. It feels like they have no weak spot, but in reality you just need to find it. And of course vs that amount of tanks brood lords and vipers are soo strong. Even if you make 10 broods and they somehow kill them, you are forcing the terran to make thors which are just not as good as tanks vs ling bane ravager army

Awesome Zerg Tactical Breakdown! More Games! More Strats! GLHF Gamers GG's🖖😎✌

[@ladylynxelot9925]

I've been doing something relatively similar, but relying on a Host/Hydra/Corrupter/Viper composition. Just trading whatever I can find. Sometimes into the army, sometimes into the production. Lock the Terran down on as few bases as possible and state clearly that any extra mineral he wants to mine on the map, he has to fight you for. On some maps that works better than on others. Some Terrans will also get desperate and send out Hellions towards your bases, so if floating like Neuro, do yourself the favour of adding 4-5 spines in the bases most important to the Terran. It both makes them harder to attack and harass.

I love your commentary. As a mediocre player I learn a lot while having a good time 🙂

Can we get a "How to deal with depression" video next?

[@Pacifica.Obscura]

This is AN ODD VACATION 😉

[@sanchito39]

You raised the key point of this being a lot of work to beat. The frustration for me comes from a design/game principle where SC2 rewards this style (and skytoss). You end up asking yourself if learning and spending time to beat this is worth it. It gets worse as you get older too.

[@vonk5463]

The problem is that Terrans (and less Protoss - cannons and batteries) have too much strong static defenses.

[@kelmateo5496]

@@vonk5463 the most busted defensive unit is without a doubt the queen. can hold almost everything earl-early midgame and can spread creep which gives so much vision and makes zerg units so fast that they don't get punished positional mistakes. and makes it hard for the other races to attack

[@vonk5463]

@@kelmateo5496 Sure but you can't turtle with it like Terrans using tanks, widow mines and planetaries. And Queens are great if you can micro them properly : otherwise they're too massive and not useful if you don't transfuse. Tanks, widow mines and planetaries do not require as much attention and care : you plant them somewhere and they do the job.

[@kelmateo5496]

@@vonk5463 well if you cant attack what else is there to do? and the answer is the exhaust play queen micro isnt that hard, and what even is turtling doesnt zerg just turtle until they have the economic lead and then when they have it only they do they attack right?its the same thing exhaust play is except much later.

[@vonk5463]

@@kelmateo5496 So to you there's no difference between a full walled off base with static defenses and 6 queens in front of a base ? Zerg doesn't have any unit that can jump walls or blink in to harass : there's mutas but it takes forever to build a Spire. The issue is you don't have to micro the Terran defenses, either you are Platinum or GM : but you have to micro the queens. And in the lower leagues it's a big problem.
