They are servants to the probe race. They find minerals and gas for the probes to eat.

Zerg is getting BUFFED. What are you smoking?

Both of you need to hush up. As of now, it is not clear whether it is a buff or a nerf yet.

Nope. 20 characters.

you are high, zerg is getting nerfed and terran is getting basically nothing but buffs other than bc escape.

What is the 10 range lurker?

what about brood lord? infestor? creep? i am not scared of lurkers. glhf

Itā€™s being replaced by lurkers which are cheaper, faster and more mobile.

Infestor is getting buffed. It means tier 2 zerg beats skytoss and skyterran by researching 1 upgrade when normally youā€™d need an ultra expensive brood infestor army to do it.

Less multitasking for zerg players.

uh, go ahead, have sky terran, im a bio player

zerg players at the top level are already handeling multi task just fine, i doubt they enjoy options being taken away, but hey, you clearly are still on your agenda. yeesh

Say hello to 10 range lurkers!

say hi to reactored ranged libs by 5 minutes lmfao

have you even tried the test map?

Lurkers will be 10 range. Understand? 10? Big number?

they uh, hit air? logic?

Considering how the Microbial Shroud will halve the Liberatorā€™s damage (which is a big deal to Hydralisks), thatā€™s quite a buff.

Iā€™m not saying there are no nerfs. There are both buffs and nerfs, and Iā€™m looking forward to seeing how the changes play out eventually.

considering lib damage, ill take half damage ^^

The liberator lost 1 range, zerg ground units take half damage from liberators and zerg ground zone control gained +1 range, yet this isnā€™t a buff to zerg? Okā€¦

Previously liberator contains were broken by zoning under them with broodlords, then moving in with corruptors to force the liberators to unsiege. This was a ridiculously expensive and immobile army locked behind a mountain of tech investments. Now zerg can zone with lair tech units (lurkers) and break liberator contains with lair tech units (infestor for MS + hydras). Zerg does the same thing but with cheaper, more mobile, and more accessible units. This is a huge buff both to zergs mid-game and late-game.

My prediction is that MS is OP and has to be nerfed.

Important factor here is timing. Will you die to Ranged Lib or will you live long enough to upgrade Lurker den to shoot airā€¦ Oh wait.

It isnā€™t just 3 Zergs won Blizzcons one each yearā€¦ I wouldnā€™t say that if one player was so good. This year came after complete Z domination in all tournaments where numbers were often half of Playoffs = Zerg, at least 1-2 Z each semis and one in a final.

Protoss was not behind in representation, sometimes even more than Z. Terran was the one that barely seen, then you ask why T will get these on new balans
