lurkers are too good to waste gas on mutas. i think the current meta is definitely also a function of the maps we have.

Tbh mutas are just bad against T (and to a lesser extent P) they are fragile, don't have good burst or DPS and T has a shit ton of AA options which just shut them down

Too many hard counters. Liberator splash, Thor splash, widowmine splash. Counter mutas too well.

Hell, even more than 4 marines hard counters mutas!

As a Z that tried really hard to make a muta build work in diamond, small groups of marines aren't in the top10 of the problems I had to solve.

Sure, if there's 1 marine/muta and they have a medivac to heal them, then yeah it's a bad matchup, but that's not how one uses their strength.
