I would like to submit @B840895 as backing to Drone's sentiment.

In my match with Dyth, I honestly believe that time spent making anything that wasn't a minotaur (See 1 emmissary, 1 ogre and 2 cyclops) caused me to lose the game. This is in spite of the fact that I managed to terraform bury his first advance - I still lost anyway, just to demonstrate how bad it is to deviate from mino-monospam.

Later I switched to glaives to try to outnumber the minos but the glaives were easily hit by his retreating minos and were too little too late. I do suspect that they don't serve as a counter anymore. All this at a time where I think Glaives are OP.

What
this
leads
me
to
believe
is
that
Drone
is
right,
the
first
player
to
attack
the
enemy
base
(
which
both
can
and
should
do)
will
win
a
mino
fight.
There's
no
stopping
the
minos
from
entering
and
destroying
your
base,
not
with
minos,
not
with
anything.

Edit:
Ok,
my
terraform
kinda
helped
here
but
that
was
very,
very
lucky
positioning
and
timing
on
my
part.
This
rarely
goes
so
well.

When I think about what CAN counter mino now, I'm only getting gnat and ultimatum. Are there more? Used to be dominatrix which would have been great here, but that's no longer true either.

So as far as I'm concerned, kodachi/glaives into minos is THE 1v1 ground meta and there is something of a problem here.
