Now I made a new account, because I want to start new as a fresh Terran, since I'm working on TvP at the moment, and I've been able to beat C-/C players with it. 2-0 - looking good. Then I bump into a D- person and decided to play him, considering my T isn't that good. I'm pretty confident I'll win and play on. BUT he went double gate, then went fast dt's and I lost. I then go on to check his record, and he was 6-36. I hate when you lose to players you should DEFINITELY win against!   | ||

That gets pretty irritating because no matter how many wins you get, as long as someone beats you with any sort of strategy, they like the automatically think that person is better. Shit sucks. | ||

Maybe you really are more skilled, and he just got lucky. But keep in mind that the perfect strategy accounts for everything, and maybe you can refine your play to deal with (considering D-, probably poorly executed) cheese. Oh, and to respond to OP title... yes, it's happened to me before, and I didn't like it. | ||

If you don't want to lose to this, just TvP a lot and you will notice low unit count and timings etc etc. Its my honest opinion that c- toss players are probably around d+ terran level (not using terran, but skill wise) because they seem to have it easier at low levels with use of cheese and the terrans and zergs not yet having the mechanics and micro required to be good at TvP and such. | ||

Yep =) TvP is all about timing but as I keep playing, I'm learning more and more about this matchup. It's fun though and definitely my favorite | ||

Everyone tells me that Terrans should focus on TvZ because everyone hates people who are only good at TvP and no good at TvZ. Well, FUCK YOU ALL. HAH. I NOW HAVE MORAL SUPPORT. Fuck yeah~ All I can win is TvP lol. But I used to be a Protoss so that would kind of explain why I can play it -_-; | ||

Maybe its because I've been playing zerg for a while, but winning with Terran has become harder than ever before. | ||

People will get D- on purpose and then play normally so that their partner gets bonus points to rank up faster. | ||

I don't get it, many protoss players scout at 8 even against terrans and we only have an occasional 2rax proxy to fear. | ||

A good terran will always be judged by his TvZ as it is the most demanding T MU and the most amazing one to both watch and play. And to be honest, I respect a T whose TvZ is really good a whole lot more than a T whose TvP is even better! HwaSIn > Flash (to me) xDD | ||
