Now that I think about it the way that I played tvt back when tanks did more damage and I was in the lower leagues is really similar to WW1 in the ways that you are comparing them. Now it is very different and somewhat less fun.

I suck at haikus otherwise I would have included one.

Also some people don't know what keep it playful means I guess

btw 5/5

War isn't fun, don't compare a fucking video game to one of the worse nightmares of mankind.
What a childish post.


He was comparing the tactics and pace of how world war 1 worked out to how the slow moving tank lines work in TvT. His post wasn't childish, but yours is.


If you knew anything about war and strategy history you would know that there is no comparison between a tank line and a Gamelin hole.

But then again, maybe Pokebunny is a fine tactician and would fit nicely in Saint-Cyr, right?

Pointless.

This thread has nothing to do with me, but my name was randomly mentioned, so I felt the need to post.

I am a masterful tactician.

When I see a game of TvT it makes me think of how WW1 transpired, thats how I think. Sorry if my post offend you, but you don't have to respond to it if you did not like it. Toss me a 0/5 and be on your way.

Thanks bro glad you liked it. It does seem that this has become a haiku blog . Maybe we should create a trozz fanclub where every post is a haiku in honor of the man himself.

Obviously Terran is the Germans, who simply weather every assault with defensive smarts until blitzkreiging forward with another surprise attack.
Zerg is the Russians, who don't have the weapons to equip more than a quarter of their soldiers but just throw wave after wave at the enemy until they eventually break.
Protoss would be the United States, who are quite weak early on and need time to build up, but once they get rolling they never stop.


I like that analogy. I have drawn simular conclusions from the korean war,
