that's a little bit OP...totally agreed with how people said the infested marines are "raining" and "waves", well i meant that much of dat unit just spoil the purpose of micro and especially the balance during the battle, coz they ill do a lot of damage in this case, while five/six infestor do not worth dat power, although they are meant to be effective through abilities and good micro, but not like this mass production :S glad this is beta. coz the current SC2 makes more sense.
@traxit947 No, he didn't, he had over 10 infestors in all the clips. all of them have full energy at 200/200, and at 25 energy a piece, each infestor can spawn 8 infested terrans, so with 10 you'll have 80, 20 infestors will give you 160 (if someone could figure out a way to lay down all of them at once that would be hilarious). And @chaosrave it is a glitch if you watched the ones near the end. Way out of vision, spawning infesteds, IMO no diff b/w mechanism exploit and glitch in that case.
btw, i was told that if you have infestors you can que them when you move so when they get to their spot they do em all at once.... but he's a strange person, so i dont know :*(
@AJknockV yeah i was just warning people, it makes snese they were sure to do it sooner or later, its that hidden nerf of neural parasite that really hurts me, it was sooo useful untill it got a fifteen second duration,
MMM neural the medvac, heal you hydras
mech neural... everything,mass infestor was zergs
main counter to terran mech
thats why we never heard about it being OP in phase 1
That many Infestor cost a ton of gas and minerals and u have NO standing army. So 1st thing as P or T u do is pull back untill the infested Terrans are gone. U go and attack again, when those infestors are low on energy and bring some detection with you. GG most of the time ;)
and... 6 infested terran... 48 infested terran with 6 range and 8 attack and 50 hitpoints...
if you have 10... 80 infested terran!!!
i mean its kind of balanced because zerg have no real cloak or harassment units but c'mon... hellions destroy drones... infested terran destroy your main...
@AtomicDoorknob Well the ability is kind of weird, each infestor has 200/200 energy points, 1 infested terran only costs 25 energy. They're so cheap and fast because they're relatively weak, slow, and have limited life spans. If they slowed down the ability it would make it worse then it already is - it is barely used in the beta. Blizzard will probably fix the bug and keep the rate of spawns the same. Or maybe scrap the ability all together. It really is kind of useless.
@AJknockV i did have a teammate who was able to completely take down the income of my enemies because they didn't have troops in the base at that moment
@AJknockV infested terran are actually really powerful. burrow into an enemy base and bomb their entire mineral line, blocking them all in. they do pretty good damage too.
@AJknockV Not exactly. Some players use the infestors ability as harassment to the mineral line. Knowing your comment was 4 moths ago I'm guessing you have found that out already. :D
@AJknockV IF you look at it now, infestors are used to burrow and then they spawn infested marines within the opponent's base. The base pretty much falls very easily when the marines reach a critical mass. Its insane.
@AJknockV Useless? I beg to differ. It can mean the world when fighting say.. 20 Zealots with charge, Vs. 10 Hydras, and 5 Infests. You can spawn the Infested Terrans to act as meat shields while the Hydras hammer down the Zealots. One of my favorite strategies. My friend that, for some reason, always tries to mass Zealots hates me 'cause every time I play him, I just use this, and rape him. He HAS come up with a partial counter to it. IF you up the Zealots they do significantly better Vs. them
@AJknockV It is not useless but is AMAZING! 5-6 Infestors can easily summon enough infested terran to kill an expo while underground and the opponent can do nothing to stop you. It only works once a match but then you have all those infestors who make great for fungal or to hit an unprotected expo easy
@AJknockV what if you sneak infestors into the enemy main and want to take down tech? fungal growth cant do that, and they'll kill the workers as well, also the ability can be used while burrowed
@AtomicDoorknob A major part of this is because, as you can see around 3:50, this video is using a modified Infestor that regenerates energy about 5 times as fast. But you can still get 8 per Infestor normally.
thats pretty awsome: does it work if you fill up a given highgroud with say zerglings? or another zerg unit holding position? if so then this actually might have some very rare but significant ingame actual uses.
I love this i will do thsi in the patch if works
