Again, zvt is one of my top 2 matchups. If I were going to bitch about a matchup I have trouble winning, it would be zvp.

But no seriously.

Im arguing for slightly higher bunker building time. Im also saying maps dont really matter all that much because the majority of the maps have starting location distances that are very similar to like lost temple 6 and 3 positions, which can still be raped by 8 rax bunker rush.

Well in my oppinion there is a dominance of both zerg and terran players equally at the semi-pro level.

Semi protoss players are just getting eaten up by zergs. This is for another thread though.

Honestly, did you play during 1.07? 4pool/6pool were popular back then, but I rarely if ever lost to them. In 1.07, on nearly every position on lt except 12/3, if you 10gated, your first zeal would finish just as 6 lings arrived. Zeal/probe fared quite well. I dunno though, my experience may be irrelevant considering the caliber of players that pool'd me. But, it's not like I was good anyhow.

Mindcrime, your disdain for semipros is absolutely ridiculous. Most semipros are within a few games reach of becoming full-fledged professionals - and some professionals can't surpass semi-pros in leagues and televisted matches. Look at CuPiD[S.G], often listed in Challenge League qualifiers. This guy destroys every Terran he goes up against, but the instant he's pitched against a Zerg, regardless of how high their level, he's out.

For once i agree with tien.

Slightly increased bunker building times.

And really focused map-balancing by pro map makers.

those are the only changes that are needed.

----

i wouldn't mind seeing units that are hardly used be made more powerful. However, this would be very very hard to do, if not impossible, and would effect the overall balance of the game.

actually, i dont think it would be a totally bad idea to beef drones. It's pretty much impossible the throw drones around like NTT did with his scv and abuse the fact that miners are so powerful.

1: How fucking hard SCV's are to kill even AFTER the early game. If a terran breaks into one of my expansions with a half-dozen units or so (call it 4 vultures and 2 tanks), I will lose pretty much every probe there even if reinforcements are 10 seconds away. If I break into a terran expansion with a similar/superior force, (say 4 zeals 4 goons), I could actually lose my force to the scv's, or at best kill 5-10 before being killled by terran reinforcements.
This sucks ^_^



that has a lot (more than the scvs anyway) to do with tanks/vults being far better peonkillers than goons/zealots are
good luck killing 4 vult 2 tank with your scvs. it's doable sure, but it's going to cost you a fuckload.

and besides you can't really kill goon/zealot combo that well with scvs. pure goon yes, but when there's a combination it becomes much harder. :O

Yeah SCVs suck. You can like do a reaver drop and get off 2 massive reaver shots, and they still have double the probes you have. I say we just take them out of the game

It is possible to beat 8rax build with 12 hatch build. If yes write counter.

what chance to win game have zerg with 12 pool, hatch hatch build?

I dont know so much about this and this is the most important to balance game. If z have no chance to win with other than 12 hatch build, we need balance change.

Its not that z has no chance, its that they are at a disadvantage if they dont have an early expo.

That means it takes a near perfect game from the zerg to win.

Tien is right, its not that Z can't stop bunker rush, its that its so hard to stop and so cheap and costs so little for the terran.

9 pool getting defended by T results in major T advantage
bunk rush getting defended by Z results in minor Z advantage.

The argument is going in circles...
Anyway, the longer bunk construction time seems to be the best idea of the bunch, and it isn't hard at all to implement. It doesnt hurt tvp at all.

ZvP needs to be fixed a bit, but there are other threads discussing this already

And is it so big disadvantage? Coz I have normaly swarms with 12 pool hatch hatch build. Only one threat on this strategy is fast drop, but one sunken will save it. If drop deads, t is in the shit.

i dont see why pvz would need to be fixed, its balanced pretty perfectly on almost all maps.
its dumb on lt tho, and dumb on islands too, but i think that has to do with the fact that all non-top zerg players have no idea how to play islands because they never want to.
