How the fuck is that shit fair? T_T

For the low cost of fucking 100min near the beginning they can instantly cost a zerg the game if he fucks up even once. A scrub who knows the timing with an APM of 80APM can properly execute a fucking bunker rush...

While set back only 100 FUCKING MINERALS, zerg has to pull drones, get extra lings instead of drones, and micro the drones properly and constantly to kill the fucking marines...

UGH. I just lost to one on iccup and I'm soooo fucking pissed...T_T

Blogs like this that rant, and aren't about TvP, are fundamentally flawed

mmm generally it requires an 8rax which really hurts your econ.

plus it keeps zergs honest from going 12hatch at nat all the time. 12hatch isn't a given, it's also a slight risk. if you were to 9pool you should be able to defend it np.

Pretty arrogant to believe you deserve an extra base for free, no? ^^
No I'm never serious.

Hi, I'm going to talk about racial balance when I have no understanding of StarCraft.

I understand you're upset, but this kind of comment sets me on tilt. Learn to defend it or learn to play safer.

For the cost of like 8 less mined minerals, an earlier scout can send all that to hell.

Total imbalance.

I like being bunker rushed as zerg because it's fun. It's not too hard to counter and it's a breath of fresh air to go into an early game micro fest.

They aren't hard to stop and you can easily get back into the game , or counter by constantly making lings and raid into them.

It sets the terran back more than 100 minerals...first they have to rax before depot, send a number of SCVs out when numbers are already low and it delays their expo/tech.

Everyone gets annoyed by it, but it's something that you need to learn to defend against cheese before you get further.
