Ok guys, I'm sick of everyone saying 1a2a3a makes life so easy for protoss. What about supply? For fuck's safe, when you are supply stuck, you have to get a probe, try to build a pylon or two, probably fail when some of your units get in the way, shift click to minerals, go micro your army, then come back to the probe and find out another unit got in its way and try to build it again... etc. It's even worse for terran of course.

But what does zerg have to do?

5so6so7so SUPPLY GG... LOL .5 SECONDS AND I HAVE LIKE 50 MORE SUPPLY NOW IM GONNA EXPAND AGAIN HAHAHAA

AND they get a damn dropship, scout, and detector all in one!

Well, in all the zerg matchups it's based on precise micro like the mutalisk micro, flanking, and darkswarm. It would be a pain in the ass to go back to base and make pylons while muta microing. I think the other races have a bit more room to make mistakes except MnM aganist lurkers.

Doing that is highly ineffective though, therefore the argument is not really valid. I'd say we just keep tempbanning people who go 1a2a3a, seems to be the right policy to me (and it does help weeding out those 'crimes' , honestly )
Complete the cycle!

Anyone who implies that any Starcraft race is easy is plain stupid. Just because protoss can more easily fit their units into relatively few groups doesn't make it an easier race. Stop whining and learn to play.

And have fun with your 20 overlords!

Well, Protoss is easier than the other races, but not overpowered in any way.

Base building is one of the strong points of P over the other races IMO.
One probe can build a whole base whereas Terran need one SCV per building and Zerg have to balance larva in drone / lord / units.

Taking one probe and doing Pylon Pylon Pylon doesnt take that much time ... true 1sO goes faster but your not spending those 3 larva on units.

Well I suppose saying zerg macro is 5so6so7so is just like saying toss micro is just 1a2a3a, in that they're both highly inaccurate statements only said by newbies and whiners. But it's usually terrans who say toss is 1a2a3a anyway.

Anyone who says protoss is obviously easier and doesn't change to protoss is just stupid or unwilling to admit they suck.
No I'm never serious.

One is largely more accurate than the other.

Well in my mind anything less accurate than my inaccurate and arbitrary definition of accuracy of statements is inaccurate enough to accurately judge as intolerably inaccurate.

OP is 100% right!
I lose 6-10 pylons all the time to a bunch of stacked up mutalisks. Their splash damage once they get +1 weapons is crazy powerful!

Oh god... I just face palmed.

Well, its not entirely incorrect, depending on how you interpret it. Protoss is easier at low-level play, but at high levels, when races reach their potential, it balances out.

And then corsairs/valkyries/goliaths just prevent you from reinforcing for the next 30 minutes while you twitch in nerd rage.

More I read teamliquid, more I regret to play terran.
