How can he just completely dismiss that and say there just aren't as many Zerg players? I know it's mostly just a lot of whining, but there are TONS of new threads everyday on peoples' problems with the Zerg race. Personally, I feel that if a race requires more APM just to be on an even level with other races, something is wrong, and they should address that first, but whatever. I'm not expecting perfect balance even remotely soon, but when many of the players agree that there's something wrong with zerg, even if no one agrees as to what that something is, I think it's pretty careless to just casually dismiss it. Even the usual BS statement of "We're always looking into it but our data suggests otherwise" would have been better.

I though the higher APM was a lot due to the fact that Zerg simply makes more units. But I never play with Zerg, so...

I play random, and Zerg is very difficult to play compared to the others. A lot of it is due to being forced to use the queen to spawn larvae, and the generally weak zerg units. Ive found the key to zerg is to rush hard and dont let up, if the enemy gets too many units, zerg gets destroyed. You also have to do a lot of tricky shit just to keep the playing field level. You have to flank with zerg units, or they stack and get eaten alive.
And terran infantry still eats zerg alive. Its a tough race to play, and I think it is slightly underpowered. But not hugely.
