EPTAs for the ZvT thing, I'm a terran player. And even I agree, there's been some games I've won where I just shouldn't have. The guy did everything right and I still ended up winning. Felt kinda bad

(myself included) You assume people did it because of the perception of an imbalance in favor of terran. I switched from Z in BW to T in SC2 because when the game was first previewed, I thought reapers looked cool and I always wanted to play Terran since early BW days. | ||

SC2 is becoming all TvT, also known as the who has more vikings matchup. I'm playing Terran but I chose this race since the first beta battle report and I dont feel like switching :/ | ||

but here goes, I hate ZvT so much right now. Wall offs limit scouting beyond the beginning. No way to know if hellions/reapers are coming, so I put in a little ground D. No way to know if air is coming, so a little later a little air D. This is working at low levels because everyone is going reapers or banshees, hopefully investing too much into it and failing. But I do that against anyone with a little skill and they don't go for the rush I am super behind in econ and tech. I hate the games where I deflect hellions then banshees then get run over anyway because the T could expand while I was dealing with harass. I can't do it back to him. Takes me longer to get air, and longer to get anti-air. | ||

Takes me longer to get air, and longer to get anti-air. You can easily tell if they're going reapers, look for early tech lab. If you don't see one, look for factory or reactor. Send a drone scout, and sac an overlord later. Saccing overlords are done all the time in broodwar. Expanding while harrassing is a basic thing that every competitive broodwar player learns. You just have to stand strong and avoid crumbling under the pressure, and push when he's weakest. Harrassing takes a lot of resources - Your "army" will be bigger and better than his as long as you keep yourself together. | ||

Is TvZ this kind of problem? Or is it more of a timing thing which will go away once people can sense how common builds will behave? It's a timing thing where Terran's timing starts from the moment the game starts and lasts until the Zerg GGs. ;_; But in all seriousness there's a myriad of reasons why people feel TvZ is imba right now. Just take a gander in the SC2 forums, 8/10 threads is about the issue. Some reasons may be more valid than others, but so far it seems like there's a lot of contributing factors. | ||

Terran and Protoss are just so easy that if you are losing you are probably facing someone who was better than you at bw or got beat by paper/cisor/rock situation with build orders. With zerg you can lose to people way worse than you. I can beat a Terran comp in hard with only probes as protoss. I kinda struggle when i try to beat him as zerg. Yea maybe i'm just that better with protoss ( or just that bad with zerg lol ) but still ... i feel the pain of the average zerg player. | ||

It was uphill every game imo this ^^ It's kind of a nice relief playing T in SC2 from playing it in BW. Now I know how it feels like to play a race that's not ridiculously hard. I hope ZvT gets fixed soon though, but I also hope zerg doesn't get overbuffed, because despite all the complaining the difference isn't ENORMOUS it's just noticeable. | ||
