I'm glad to see people finally realizing that Terran needs buffs! 1/1/1 is completely counter able by just about anything including a fast expo against a terran that all-ins. Don't even get me started on BFH, they just about suck now and they're still nerfing them. Zerg can just make drones over and over again while you keep losing 100 mineral hellions trying to kill 2 drones at a time because they're not dumb and they keep their drones mining instead of lining them up.(this happens a lot in the GSL, and yet people wonder why zergs always lose to it.). Then somehow they just make Broodlords and a thousand banelings while you're still trying to make your third tank and expo, even though you've been defending his muta harass like a pro all game long. That reminds me, muta harass needs a nerf because they can just kill your stuff and run away. It's like, i'll try to build 3 or 4 missile turrets but they just come in and one shot them. Then I stim marines and the mutas run away without losing any lives. If you go mutas as zerg you have no excuse for losing. You just have to attack the turrets and kill SCVs, then you win because he cant have any units and you'll have the entire map to yourself.
And then vs Terran it's the worst. Terran just has no way to defend a Terran BFH drop, they just clean up all the scvs and run away. Then you're left with 2 marines and a tank, and somehow he's got 10 banshees in your base! How the heck are you supposed to have built an engineering bay when he killed all your hellions because you were out on the field trying to be cautious and attack at the same time? Terran is just overpowered.

i really think they need to give marines +1 armor and make each marine cost .5 food, furthermore you should be able to build battlecruisers with a reactor, and cut the gas cost to 100. i think that would come at least somewhat closer to closing this obviously horrible gap. i cant believe anyone would ever pick terran as a starting race

Why does Protoss have to have the lowest ratio won? Hmm... let's see.. How many Protosses have won GSL recently? Excuse me while I go make a blog about this.

I respond as such because this is simply outrageous. Terran is NOT and, to my knowledge, has NEVER been UP. From what I hear from people it is, in fact, OP. I'm sorry, but I have to argue that you are wrong. Did you see MC get completely wrecked by the 1/1/1 multiple times? HuK got dominated by MVP through 2 terran all-ins? (albeit the fact that HuK was jetlagged). Even Blizzard themselves have said that Terran is too versatile.
EDIT: threw in a quote
