IMO Zerg is still screwed. Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying that zerg is unplayable but they are extremely lackluster compared to the other races.

- Inability to feasibly wall off
- Lack of early game AA (don't give me the queen crap)
- Slow overall unit speed without upgrades
- Bad stealth detection (terran get scan and protoss observer)
- Bad scouting (have to sac food supply, see stealth detection)
- Weaker units requiring more micro
- Queen larva inject and creep spread requires more macro
- The ultra is still not so good thanks to melee unit collision.
- Less variety of units compared to the other 2 races (go count them)
Etc etc
Blizz is doing this because they realize that Zerg needs some help, I stopped playing a while ago because of this.


Zerg can wall off you're just doing it wrong.
Queens are just fine (unless they do some absolute shenanigans)
Yeah this is pretty dumb.
Stealth detection is find
Scouting is bad but that's being addressed
Weak units is pretty dumb yeah, but l2swarm
Injecting and creep spread management is a skill you're supposed to work on.
Ultra problem is being addressed.
And yes our units are awful.

Extra Queen energy out, and ground range is going up by 2 (from 3 to 5).

The only strategy I ever enjoyed using is now completely destroyed.

Holy s*** I forgot you like using that reaper build. That's kind of huge that for the range. Makes it better for anti cheese and reaper and some dumb other stuff I didn't list.

Guess League of Legends truly is the superior game and I made the right choice. Good job, Blizzard.
