zerg build orders are the easiest


zvz:

15 hatch
16 gas
15 pool
16 overlord
make drones
see what he's doing before you do anything else

zvt:

15 hatch
16 gas
15 pool
16 overlord
make drones
see what he's doing before you do anything else

zvp:

15 pool
15/16 hatch
15/16 overlord
make drones
see what he's doing before you do anything else

oh okay thank you, that explains why it's so easy to get into masters league, like, you should think the master league would be full at some point since it "should" only take 2% of all players.
Maybe it's bugged? or intended, i don't know


I dunno, after being masters consistently every season in WOL, and winning all 5 placements in HOTS. I got put into diamond. Some Diamond players actually gave me a challenge TBH. That or because I haven't used any new units from HOTS yet.

Yeah, zerg builds are the easiest because they only last until the 2 minute mark until you have to play reactive.

Protoss can follow a build order into like 12+ minutes rofl...

Actually you don't have to see what Protoss is doing beyond checking if it's gate or forge opening.

Indeed.


Zerg build order: 10dronescout -> 15hatch/14pool -> know every build order/timing attack for every race in order to react with the proper countermeasures.


The real question is, what's more difficult for the individual: remembering a complex sequence of actions and carrying them out flawlessly or interpreting visual data and applying if/then logic based on a database of historical evidence/experience?

Copying a build blindly from note-pad for 10 minutes is much easier.

I think you guys are confusing build orders for openers, and if you dont know any zerg build orders there is something wrong with your play.
