Does anyone else feel like with the way HOTS is looking that Terran is almost too forced on going Viking late game in every match up? They gave Terran more of a defensive style and gave Protoss a 15-range Brood Lord... Tempest, Brood Lords, TvT Viking/Tank line battles. I just feel like every game I'm looking at 15-20 Vikings late game just to survive. Is this intended, good, bad? I think its bad, because too many Vikings can kill you quickly. I feel like every late game comes down to Viking micro/kyting.

I'm confused why this is bad? People have been getting vikings in every matchup and are pretty much seen every game in WoL, so why is that not the status quo? I'm very confused here.
User was warned for too many mimes.
