saying "a pvt going into standard macro mid-late/late game is imbalanced" is like me saying "a ZvT going into late game when the Zerg has 4+ gas is imbalanced"

you cant put preconditions on matchups, so what if PvTs were won with those builds? that has to be factored into the equation on the balance of the map, you can't just ignore all games except ones where terrans sustain no early/midgame damage and say "well THOSE are imba"

that's like a Z doing a 2 hatch build, doing no damage, then me saying well if a Zerg can't do early game damage with his 2 hatch, it's IMBA TVZ. doesn't make sense, threat and execution of those proxy / dt drops / reaver builds are a large part of PvT you can't simply ignore them. by that definition every TvP on any map is imbalanced in favor of Terran then (imposing your "sustained no damage until late game" conditions).

LOL a pvt going into standard mid-late/late game is NOTHING like saying zvt is imba with zerg getting 4+ gas. hahaha, on a balanced pvt map, pvt should be fair going into mid-late/late game without protoss doing any damage. seriously, your examples are awful man. if a zerg does 2 hatch build and does no damage, then it's the zerg player's fault. if the protoss and terran play standard going into the late game, and the game favors terran, then yeah, my point stands. why? because it would be fair on any other map. 2 hatch/zerg getting 4 gas has nothing to do with this because that solely depends on the players.
