EPTBut then let's compare MC, with good Toss players, in other words Genius and SSKS, and you can see the difference is much larger. The same goes with Nestea and the Zerg.

Anyways I digress.. Well I wouldnt start a thread with that title because that's not what is happening. However if i started a thread with the title "Why are zerg so unstoppable lategame?" then I expect we'd see a similar influx of terran players whining about zerg lategame being so strong. | ||

Fair rebuttal, though i feel protoss lategame is stronger vs terran, but anyway | ||

They are pretty much one step behind them. But then let's compare MC, with good Toss players, in other words Genius and SSKS, and you can see the difference is much larger. The same goes with Nestea and the Zerg. Yeah. If Terran didn't dominate then it would have been a problem. More players playing Terran-->more good Terrans. A good Zerg/Protoss can win the hole thing like they did. I pity the ones that think "IMBA". | ||

Terran is just 10% OP and in the top field these sort of procentage is huge. | ||

I'm not whining about how strong this race is (blame blizzard -.-) but each unit can be put in to full potential and pretty much can work with other units. When one BO doesn't, someone will make it stronger or have a different strat. Cost effective units + high econ w/o high number workers or even if all your scv died I'm not a zerg player but its painful to watch marine+tank+turrets push when zerg can't do anything about it their army just melt like butter In PVT, I'm impressed with MC and showed us different builds but let's face it we can't be good as him =/ | ||

Expect a HT nerf too if they nerf T. | ||

Terran OP (sry). You are not limited by your race, but by your hands. pretty much a resume of Terran OP, agree | ||

If you listen towards the end, they're stating that a well needed nerf for toss lategame is coming. I don't want to sound biased but Protoss has a pretty big advantage vs terran, especially lategame. | ||

They said Terran is too strong early game because of timing attacks and stim, whereas Toss has the advantage lategame with mass Colo/Storm. Now that Toss scouting has been buffed if anything it is Toss lategame that will be nerfed. lol@10% OP btw | ||

However if i started a thread with the title "Why are zerg so unstoppable lategame?" then I expect we'd see a similar influx of terran players whining about zerg lategame being so strong. I think that's an interesting question with an interesting answer: Zerg are unstoppable late-game if you've spent two or three bases' worth of resources blasting the living shit out of them and they've managed to survive. They've starved you out; they've earned the win. Builds like the '4OC' strategy strongly suggest that if you pour resources into unit production facilities rather than units, late-game Zerg is eminently stoppable. You can match and even overtop their '300 food push'. But you won't be able to do that if you've been constantly aggressive. I think late-game Zerg could be absolutely crushed if a Terran methodically turtled on three or four bases, massed unit producing structures, saved up resources and then pushed out. If you're not prepared to do that, why shouldn't a Zerg's tenacity eventually pay off? | ||
