Love the new patch.

Today, I played a Terran who, at the end of the match, closed the match not with a gg but with a "zerg is imba".

And like... dude. maybe it is. Maybe zerg is strong right now. I'm not a scientist, I'm a Gold 1 player.

but also maybe like...

maybe you didn't wall off your natural, and i did, so your at 5:30, your 4 hellion attempt on my natural failed?

Maybe your 5:34 second base orbital expansion was several minutes late.

Maybe having only 28 SCVs at 6:45 against a zerg who is on 2 fully saturated bases is a little low?

Maybe still not walling off your natural by 7 minutes when i finally attacked with 20 1/1 speedlings was a mistake?

Maybe a single thor at 9 minutes isn't enough units?

Maybe the fact that this game still somehow managed to continue for another 5 minutes despite me having 2/2 upgrades, to your... zero... is indicative of... something?

Like... dude... I barely beat you despite having double or triple your economy at some points.

I think my point is that I suck at this game so i don't know if zerg is op right now but also like... idk man. It really feels like if I did all that and still was white knuckling the whole time that maybe a zerg buff isn't the end of the world? I've played 13 games today and lost 7 of them. I was gold 1 before the patch. I'm still gold 1 after the patch. i play almost every day. I played the ptr for a few days before the patch.

i'm sure the zerg buff matters but i don't think that i'm the genre of player who is playing well enough to benefit massively from it and brother... don't call it imba if you're not positive that you're not an idiot. sorry you didn't win with your 5 minute hellion harass.
