The way you're describing mech tvp is really depressing to me. Mech isn't supposed to be mobile, it's supposed to be positional, that's why it's fun. You can lock down an area and be really difficult to attack into, while harassing with a drop or air units and slow pushing/taking an expo. The way you make it sound it's just bio minus stim and medivacs, which means it loses a lot of its retainability - unless you also bring a ton of scvs with your army - and mobility. In other words...a big, fat meh,



That said, the siege tank is still an absolute staple in Terran's other two match ups. How do you make it better vs Protoss without making it overpowered vs Zerg or in TvT?



the least they could do is buff siege tanks vs shields. That would leave the other match ups alone, it wouldn't stack with emp, and if you buff shield damage specifically at an armory upgrade level, it won't make 111s OP.

But I generally think they can afford to add a major buff to siege tanks in HOTS, because there are so many strong counters available. An armory upgrade that removed the damage modifier could be nice

Bisu was born ready. I preordain a golden age for good Protoss users.


Seriously a good writeup. Contributing to TL more than anyone I know, well maybe ATK and his buddy the gunrun have to something to say about it, but I haven't hit those guys up in ages... In the great words of Artosis memes "not bad."

If there is a prize as Jackbo states, it would be silly if you didn't win it.
