You can also transition to carriers after going for a dragoon dweb timing attack. Lx (a Chinese player) did this in a few of his PvT games- see his game vs Tossgirl on Matchpoint from the STX masters replay pack. | ||

If set up properly Terran army is much stronger than Protoss. However the key is setting up properly, if Terran gets caught out of position and sieges just 1 second too late Protoss can just steamroll. | ||

Poll: If no spells or abilities could be used, which race would be strongest Zerg (208) Terran (95) Protoss (28) 331 total votes Your vote: If no spells or abilities could be used, which race would be strongest I saw this poll and thought to myself: Why the hell is protoss only at 6% while T is at 32%? P is significantly less dependant on abilities than T. Only crucial loss for P is Storm, while T loses: Siege Mode (lol), Stim (lol), Medic's Heal (rip bio), Spider Mine (rip map control), Irradiate (as if TvZ could be made any more impossible) and Scan (gl defending against DTs). Minor losses also include wraith's Cloak which eliminates the only remaining viable tech choice against zerg. Basically: how the hell does T expect to have any chance? In PvT, the P only needs to make speedlots, DTs and dragoons to win (Zealot speed is an upgrade, not an ability). Unit quality is simply too good for T to handle, and DTs are especially crippling. Without scan for DTs, terran will be forced to spam turrets every game and be chained to his base, lest he builds Science Vessels only for detection (lol) which is a significant investment of resources. Every game in TvP, T will be forced to start out with turrets and transition into handicapped Vessels just to stay alive. The constant harass threat and map control that DTs give P is absolutely crippling for T without scan. Yes, P loses Arbiter and Carrier, but those are far less core than friggin siege tanks. P can win frequently vs T without Arbiters or Carriers, but TvP without siege or spider mine is a complete joke. And don't get me started on TvZ. Yes zerg loses swarm and lurkers, but that's nothing compared to losing stim, medics, siege and irradiate. Going 3 hatch muta should be an autowin every game. Earlygame Z can hold easily with lings and sunks, and if T overcommits to firebats that just means the victory is even easier when the mutas pop. Only possible counter is Goliaths, but then Z counters right back with hydras. GG. If for some godforsaken reason T should survive until the endgame, it's Ultra time. Good luck dealing with fully upgraded ultras without siege, spider mines, irradiate or stim. Z can also freely complement with fully upgraded cracklings, as none of its upgrades are abilities. This may be the weirdest poll result I've ever seen on TL. Zerg is rightly on top as ZvP is a roflstomp without storm or reavers for P. But Terran would be the worst race without abilites, by a far margin. | ||

It's not an upgrade or research ability either. It's listed under Abilites on liquipedia. Abilities don't have to be researched; there's no connection there. It's a pre-researched ability like Defensive matrix. Just because they made it autocast doesn't make it not an ability. | ||

Yes, VOD please.... edit: and it's kinda hard to belive than someone is better than Bisu at that, I would have bet than JD is one step above the rest at UMS micro maps too, but now I'm not so sure... | ||
