why are u guys using the word slave and responsibility interchangeably... protoss and terran have their duties, but not "slave"-like.

- slave labor is mindless but intensive -- same with that of zerg to constantly rehatch mid and plague easy. "1sm2sm3sm4sm, 1g2g3g4g" thats like 4 things u have to do with zerg.

-protoss and terran have responsibilities that take some brain -- timing, location, precision. more specifically, recall timing, unit compositions, where units have to be, MOVING YOUR UNITS AROUND AND NOT GETTING EATEN WITH 40 APM, anti (emp, lockdown clicks), eyes on the sides, etc.

So yeah... more brains for p/t, zerg is simple but still has to do work like the other races.

Z so simple, yet less than 10 people can play it effectively  ;D

Andy is smart

The reason is simple: MM. P/T lose constantly units, zerg doesnt have this privilege. Some players think "we found a great trick!!"its secet" late drones!! damn we smart! But it doesnt work as p/t unis creation, bc larvas production its different (3 larvas max) once "late drones" gets 1 larva, the other zerg ll have his larva). Imo late drones doesnt impact at all in games. And remember there is a limit of units, once 1 zerg makes mutuas he is giving to the other zerg 1 larva and 1 unit to each race (according lates time) W.e im too lazy to explain it, but im trying to say lates dont work well for zergs.

Finally zerg units possibilities is poor. Zerg normally goes 80% guards and goes mid. Swarm/plague/snare is a plus, hydras once map is broken. W/o map, zerg could mix more frecuently... that is y in late games, zerg gets more and more important. Normally pt dump 40x4=160 workers-->80 units less on maps (1 worker for 1goon/wraith[2psi]), 80 workers to zerg add this drones that zerg loses.

On bw its so different... lurkers (2psi), devoures (2psi), ultras (4psi). Usually zerg on bw 1) more independent (self sufficent) 2) zerg ll have less problems with map max, zerg usually are maxed (same mount of larvas, but better psi distribution).

Well yeah im drunk

135-145 drones by 7:40.
I get enough larva for 4 sets of mutas + another 8-10...Z is easiest to play IF you know what you're doing.
A lot of people just don't.

the only new school player ive seen get 140 by 740 is slomar, people claim they can do it but i have enough zerg reps of them not doing it.
140 by 745 is a no brainer.

but I still stand by thinking Toss being the most active race.  A good toss player makes any terran/zerg look really good. 

- RC's distracts opponents allowing terran to hunt, zerg to parasite
- storm faster to kill units compared to irridate
- gotta freeze units otherwise  wraith vs wraith is a wasting against mid

Major point though, is RC's distract opponents

By taking initative and always going to offensive, allows your team to defend protect against a counter.  Why wait for someone to rc? to counter Rc? Thats why lates were discovered to continously RC and RC. 

If you cant RC and storm/freeze mid at the same time, you need to learn to multi task unless you don't give a shit then you can ignore this topic  ;D
