Apex ChinchillaHostWhat's your thoughts on it? How good was it in Wave 1?

So, like, Wave 1 kind of went through a cycle of you started with Everybody was running a bunch of Stalkers, and a bunch of Marauders because of a bunch of Stalkers, and all of that happened because of Roaches.

And then, as the game went on, people were like, but wait, Roaches don't kill anything.

So then everybody kind of moved away from Stalkers and moved into Hydras and Zerglings and what have you.

And it turns out that Adept, with Shade into Melee... just outperformed everything else in the game because they were fighting effectively in two phases and locking units down.

Wave 1 is very much a game full of lights where that stalker or that adepts pretty much dominate.

Yeah.
I'm not gonna hide that.

So, like, yeah, he's, like, in that broken range where he'll trick you into thinking that he's not broken, but he still is, though.

And then Zerg, unfortunately, to go with the magic outlook, is they have to play fair.

And as anybody who's played a lot of games will tell you, that's not a good place to be.

When the other people are not playing a fair game, it's not ideal to be the army that has to play a fair game.
Yeah, they're kind of...
People are trying Lings, and Lings have a big problem.
