Does anyone know if Blizz have said anything about their plans with patches? I don't necessarily mean the Z issue alone, just what their general policy with patches would be after release. I know we can't expect weekly changes like the beta, but surely they can't wait forever? (I have a horrible feeling it will be)

As 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

As a side note, if you look at the current poll, out of everyone who changed their race from BW to SC2, the race with the biggest numbers of people switching to it is Terran.



(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.

I played zerg BW. I played random through most of the beta, just intending to learn as much as possible and play zerg in retail. But, i found zerg is too weak. I switched to 75% random and 25% zerg in beta to 100% random. I can't bring myself to play ezpz terran cause it feels so much like cheating, but you just cannot get as far playing zerg.

damn

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 :/

The interesting thing is that I think zerg easily has the most potential for success in the way this game is made. They're pretty simple theory wise, but if you get the mechanics down I think you can have massive success. Do I think they need some help? Yeah, a lot of help - no.. not really.

my post in a nutshell: QQ
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.

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.

Idk atleast in pvz it seems like zergs are just really greedy. If they aren't allowed to maximize they're macro immediately it's imba somehow. 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?

Everybody is changing to T, because it's so easier and T requires no skill at all. That's the same in BW and SC2

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.

I'm convinced for day one that Zerg is the only race really difficult to play in Sc2.
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.
fuck all those elitists brb watching streams of elite players.

@OP Have you ever played Terran in SC1? It was all about timing and finding windows to attack. You can't expect to be totally even every second of the game and blaming everything imbalance if you have to defend during the game. Just because you're playing Zerg doesn't mean you can play Zerg SC1 style -20 mutas would just as easily die to Science Vessels and Zerglings melt from M&M anyway.

Terran in SC1 is more like ... defend all the gay shit that the other races can throw at you until you finally manage to win.

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.
