Notice how all the Terran players have yet to have come out admit their atrocities to us Zerg players. I just can't stop grinning =D
Of course there are Terran players who say, "well hey there was nothing wrong, Zerg players were eventually learning to adapt to the insane harass at the highest levels of play". But the problem I find with that is the fact that it required so much effort, so much skill, and a lot more luck to stay in the game and perform at that level compared to what the Terran players have at their disposal prepatch.
Terran tears are going to continue to come about, and listen I'm not gonna deny the fact that these tears can be genuine and absolutely justified but do not expect any sympathy from Zerg players. That is unless someone steps up and apologizes. Then we can all come to a mutual understanding... I hope.

I really like this image of malevolent Zerg players sitting in a smoke-filled backroom chortling sinisterly. Not over the top at all. Weren't you one of the "learn to nydus" guys pre-patch? You reap what you sow.

And so all the Terran players, just quietly ignore our posts that remind them of what the state of the SC2 community was prepatch...
Isn't there some historical event that is similar to this?

You stole my words. I remember those days playing as terran and doing whatever i want. also, if youre winning on no build order/ good timing, then youre just playing terrible people. and dont even start with the blah blah he was 4000+ diamond doublerainbow league terran and i was 1 base bs.

Most of OP's threads have been whining about zerg/broodlord imba. If you think playing "macro" vs zerg is giving him 10 free minutes to power up while you do the same sure you'll lose. Someone posted "lets me get 3 bases and then he overruns me" well yeah obviously, he got way more drones than you in a shorter time. I'll let you get an many bases as you want if I can get as many as I want, and I'll win with superior economy and superior reproduction. Zerg doesn't magically have a superior economy, they simply can pump drones instead of units, so it means there is a window where they have less units than you. Thats what you need to pressure a lot. The plus side is if you pressure enough that he doesn't get many drones at his natural you can take a third base with full saturation and be *ahead* of zerg in economy. Not claiming its the solution to all problems, but seriously you have to be agressive against a zerg user unless you're making an unstoppable mech army or something. It's all about the timing attacks (sound familar? oh yeah, bw TvZ) I think zergs were learning to play zvt well at the same time the roach buff came, so there is a huge power swing right now. But I'm damn sure it wasn't anything to do with nydus, its just refining builds and learning defense timings. Rofl, wow! :O
I made my earlier post half in jest. I didn't know the OP was the same guy. Realizing the OP here is the same guy I was joking about makes me cringe. OP do you know how hypocritical you look? o.O

This is ironic.
People made fun of Zerg players pre-patch, saying "all you need to do is change your style".
You know, the whole 'just figure it out' deal. And now when Terran's early game gets nerfed, the same people who insulted Zerg players for being upset in the first place are the ones crying and not even heeding their original advice.
If Zerg figured out how to deal with Terran, then maybe it is time some Terran players learn something other than reaper openings and proxy barracks. Everyone is one-dimensional, playing with siege tank/marine, then saying how imbalanced this shit is when they can't even adjust lol. I'm not saying anything in regards to balance, I just find it so funny. Especially when players like QXC and Brat_OK are prime examples of people who are experimenting and finding success with other builds. I'm enjoying it thoroughly as well. So many ZvT responses last month along the lines of "No you just have to get creative! Use nydus!" Z is op in ZvT? Nope. Terrans just need to get more creative with ravens!
Wow, and it just keeps getting better...

I've been guessing that Z would be OP since I saw the new patch notes, but I'm going to thoroughly enjoy rubbing zerg dominance in considering you're the guy that blamed the players last patch and told them to use nydus more.

I like how +1 roach range TURNED THE TABLES COMPLETELY and now zerg is obviously way way way way way more powerful than terran. Because I mean let's look at all the circumstances you would use roaches in TvZ:
Whew that should be about all of them, sorry for the long post but roaches are just so fucking versatile.
And hatch first? Please, as if you BBSed every game, hah.
Top zergs are just improving faster than top terrans, because it's necesarry. Zerg is simply much harder to play. I've tried doing ladder games as T and it's a laugh, I didn't drop a single point of rating, while Morrow dropped 700 and was still falling going from T to Z.
Man up, +1 range didn't change shit and you didn't stop hatch-first builds before. Boo hoo you can't abuse overpowered reapers any more and have to learn how to actually play the game by getting more than 1 base.
Zerg mid to late game is simply overdeveloped in comparison to T's because all T would do was abuse an imbalanced early game to give them a free pass through the mid/late, they didn't need to learn any timings, army positioning, compositions or micro because it wouldn't matter you could a-move with your free advantage.
Meh I might offend some newbie terrans with this post but oh well, the OP pretty much invited for a flame fest so I guess I took the bait.
|
I think a big factor is that for a long time there was alot more people playing terran than zerg (don't know how it's changed since the patch.)
People didn't get to practise their vZ versus good zerg's atleast, and every zerg out there was practising their ass off trying to find any way to beat terran.
Basically vT is everyones strongest matchup, combine that with patch and you have something that looks like an unbalance. If this "imbalance" is still here in a few weeks or a month then you can start saying zerg is OP or whatever.
tl;dr: Give it some time.

And just because zerg was underpowered at a point does not make for a good argument that zerg should be overpowered for a time period 'to make up for it'. The supply before rax barely affects the tvp matchup at all. No one used reapers against protoss, and not many people did a bbs against terran. And if you can start out with so many units, you can harass. That's what terran is in sc2, its about harass. No other race can get t3 units as fast as you. You can get thors superfast, and even bcs really fast, but zerg and protoss take very long to get those units. And if you allow protoss to get a lot of temps and colossi, thats your fault. Temps and colossi require a crapload of gas, and therefore you need a lot of expansions. You don't let a toss do that, just like how a toss doesn't allow zergs to macro up like that in the pvz matchup I never liked the reasoning "don't let it get up to that point". With the 1 gate FE pretty much safe and standard, 2 base Protoss can go colossus into templar pretty easily while taking a third. 3 bases, or even 2, is enough for a critical mass of colossus or HT. My point wasn't "don't let it get up to that point" My point was, you don't let a toss to expand freely. If he's stuck on 2 bases for a while, he will not have enough gas to constantly pump out templars and collossi, while getting the upgrades for them. And its not easy for toss to get extra bases. Their army is pretty immobile, and you can take the expos out with a few multipronged attacks. Stimmed marauders kill buildings super fast, and are really great units against protoss gateway units. And to the "don't let it get up to that point" argument, a lot of starcraft is about that. In pvz, thats what its all about, the toss can't let the zerg be on 5-6 fully saturated bases, because they know they'll be overrrun. So toss has to make good timing attacks to stop this. This doesn't stop pvz from being imba, it is one of the most balance mus in the game, and even slightly favors protoss.

You have still not made a single valid point that would say that tvp is now a balanced matchup. Listen, there were about 100 victories by terran in all tournaments so far, only about 20 wins for zerg, and a few more wins for protoss. There were 4 out of 8 terrans in quarterfinals of gsl, 3 out of 4 in semifinals, without a single protoss. Now tell me that tvp wasn 't balanced before. If it was, there would have been a fairly somilar number of toss and terrans, but terrans dominated the entire game, meaning they had advantages against both races. Now with the patches, zvt might be better balanced, but there really isn't a single nerf/buff for terran or protoss that changed how the matchup is played.
And reapers were never used in tvp, so don't even go there. Kinda like hydras against terran

Talk to QXC about reapers vs Protoss. Yes they were used. He loves Reapers vs Protoss. KawaiiRice said he had a 2 rax reaper build vs Protoss. Yes, they were not common, but they worked.
And I said it's balanced AT MOST. Meaning that I believe it to be Protoss favored, but I'm willing to consider it balanced as an argument. Saying Terran is favored in TvP is not an argument that I'm really going to take seriously.
Blizzard's statistics say that TvP is Protoss favored.

I am so sick and tired of this. The patch has been out for two weeks! Unless you have a crystal ball, you're really just making things up so you can complain. Terrans need to spend at least another month or two developing new strategies that don't rely on the Zerg losing half of their drones to hellions or reapers in the first five minutes of the game. If Zerg players are still winning more of their games at that time, then we can discuss imbalance. But please, the patch is so new that saying anything about balance is premature. Let strategies settle. Be patient. Then if there's still a problem, Blizzard will patch it. Until then, your energy is better spent trying to develop new strategies instead of whining to Blizzard to fix it.
That said, Terran late game does seem a little weak at the moment and mutalisks feel pretty strong. But I'm not sure if that's because of inherent balance issues or because Terran players don't really have as good of strategies or timings post-patch. The patch destroyed Terran strategy, so it'll take time to adjust to the point where we can comment on balance. It's expected that Zerg win rate would shoot up after this patch, because all Zerg strategies only gained viability while many Terran strategies lost viability.

Of course there are Terran players who say, "well hey there was nothing wrong, Zerg players were eventually learning to adapt to the insane harass at the highest levels of play". But the problem I find with that is the fact that it required so much effort, so much skill, and a lot more luck to stay in the game and perform at that level compared to what the Terran players have at their disposal prepatch.
Terran tears are going to continue to come about, and listen I'm not gonna deny the fact that these tears can be genuine and absolutely justified but do not expect any sympathy from Zerg players. That is unless someone steps up and apologizes. Then we can all come to a mutual understanding... I hope.
This reminds me of the prisoner and warden experiment.
Anyways, the problem with this line of logic is that you are assuming that no Terran players gave sympathy to the Zerg, which is untrue.
Let's say 60% of Terrans were unsympathetic and 40% were sympathetic. Does that means you need to treat the 40% that were sympathetic like they weren't?

Of course there are Terran players who say, "well hey there was nothing wrong, Zerg players were eventually learning to adapt to the insane harass at the highest levels of play". But the problem I find with that is the fact that it required so much effort, so much skill, and a lot more luck to stay in the game and perform at that level compared to what the Terran players have at their disposal prepatch.
Terran tears are going to continue to come about, and listen I'm not gonna deny the fact that these tears can be genuine and absolutely justified but do not expect any sympathy from Zerg players. That is unless someone steps up and apologizes. Then we can all come to a mutual understanding... I hope. This reminds me of the prisoner and warden experiment. Anyways, the problem with this line of logic is that you are assuming that no Terran players gave sympathy to the Zerg, which is untrue. Let's say 60% of Terrans were unsympathetic and 40% were sympathetic. Does that means you need to treat the 40% that were sympathetic like they weren't?
Now don't get me wrong, I haven't typed out all there is to cover all the possible holes in my post. Typing "all the Terrans" was wrong, and I'm man enough to apologize for that.
I honestly feel bad for players who play Terran, no sarcasm at all. Because I know for a fact there are a lot of fantastic Terran players out there, and they will be tainted by the fact that most Terran players were very unsympathetic to Zerg players, while they acknowledged the issues in the ZvT Match-Up and openly discussed reasonable solutions to it.
However, because of people like Avilo, the other 60%, Terran will be branded as a race that is played by people who are hypocrites and so on. I mean seriously after reading that topic that Avilo made before the patch, I can only /facepalm. Hard evidence unrefutable right there.

I actually think that you're way off base with your predictions on GSL. There are plenty of great T, Z, and P players (Boxer, Nada, SangHo, Idra), and I think any of them have a decent shot at winning.
