I'm glad I decided to read the thread before replying, making me one of the cool kids in this case, but lets be honest, is there anyone who reads all threads every time before replying? I gotta say at least 50% of the time I just read the op and the five last posts before replying.
Excuse me hun, but what is your name? Vivian? I woke up next to you naked and, uh, did we, um?

On the other hand, if you read the last few posts, usually there's someone who points out the joke. The stupid people are the ones who only read the OP then reply, with no regard to whether there's some else up or, for more general purpose, if what they're saying has already been said.

exactly... there is a LOT of people that simply reply by saying "I didnt read the thread but i think..." and they think that excuses them... you should AT least read the 1st page and the last page... I mean AT LEAST to know how the conversation is going but nope, they wont... I assure you some other kids are going to fall for this again... :D

Never have I seen a single person on these forums who thought sc was truly balanced
gonna go out on a limb here and say everyone reading has felt sc is imbalanced at some point
give it some thought though, you never hear that much bitching about it at pro level do you?
you think its imbalanced because its harder to learn to play VS protoss then to learn to play protoss.
up till now in the pro scene zvp balance has fluctuated pretty hard because of shifts in metagame
never at any point was it clearly Z=P, because both races found new ways to dick each other
gonna be P>Z again at some point, after Protoss figures out a good way to counter 5 hatch hydra
let it lie for now though, as it is its not TOO imbalanced...just kinda tipped to one side
you have to consider, as a protoss, that some of your templar are gonna die by getting shot
down to mutas no matter WHAT, so you need extra ones, which is the core of the imbalance.



oh thats beautiful

oh, I give up.


i searched the entire thread and didnt see posts by you what are you talking about D:

I am invisible, then. I've given up, anyway.

Err isn't that an indication that perhaps you should be using something other than scourge at that stage?

It's like saying scouts are imbalanced cos you can't take them with 2958230959023859 lings....


When a races main anti-air unit can't take out another races anti-air unit. It's a problem obv.

lol it's always been ZvP imbalance except for Bisu and Free, i bet they chill with each other singing it's just the two of us, we can pvz if we try, just the two of us building corsairs in the sky

edit: will ignorant lower level SCplayers mock imbalance till hell?

answer: always


Bisu complains about how hard PvZ is a lot. He finds it comfortable, not easy. Ask Stork about how much he complains.

I believe match-up imbalances exist very slightly but the imbalances favor a different race at different skill levels. The maps play a bigger role for sure but there are many more factors at play. If I had time, I could take an average of all the map statistics on ICCUP (forgetting about EXTREMELY imbalnced maps like Battle Royale), from thousands and thousands of games, and I can safely assume that the percentages are going to show a favor to one race in a MU. And I am pretty sure it is not gonna be 51-49% difference. Not much bigger than that, but bigger nonetheless.

If it was possible, we could split that number between different skill levels and we'd see some interesting trends. Anyone who believes Starcraft is perfectly balanced is a disillusioned fool. It is balanced enough for all 3 races to be able to compete with each other on a strong, near equal, footing. I do believe that. But Starcraft is not PERFECTLY balanced.

Also, OP is a troll. Just wanted to share my opinion.
