It's not Roffles.

Roffles was banned.

It's clearly someone else.

stimpack and emp are the micro spells, all the other spells are not that time sensitive like storm, feedback, forcefield, blink

the most time on ladder its like

feedback raven or some medivacs, cast guardian shield, cast good forcefields, cast good storms, blink into better position, micro your collosie

and for terran its like press T and A (attack), then click, s(stop), click, s, click, s
and most of the time he doesnt even need EMP, cause the protoss fucks up on some of his 1 million tasks he has to do at the start of the battle



Yeah obviously the race you play is far harder than the other races, not seen this before :D

Why did he get temp banned for this? i dont understand


Well, he did ask for the return of lockdowns...and in return he got lockdowned...

I am disappointed along with a few others on this board that HSM has seen very little play thus far in any leagues. It's not that it's not viable, but it's not worth getting when compared to other units. If you wanted AOE damage you go to the Siege Tank, if you wanted mineral line harassment you do drops.

Too much SC2 fourm moderating, I tell you. I bet this is the result of some horrible nightmare he had, where all he had wa ghosts, his base was getting raped by collosi, and the only thing he could think of was to use lockdown...

And then there was no lockdown

SC2 makes me

Why can't I lock down those colossi?

i do agree that the one thing that sucks playing terran is the lack of a Area spell, i mean toss have ht and zerg have infestors which rip bio to shreads and yet somehow we are the "op" race.

edit: that being said I dont have any other real complaints as i think the game is pretty balanced as it is, just the whole area spells get to me.

Well, I don't know... I was under the exact opposite impression... I mean, I think Terran is lucky that almost all of their spells are really, really good.

So, no... Lockdown would be extremely sick and would break the current balance, if it was added to terran's war arsenal if there wasn't anything to compensate for the other 2 races.

Hmm... EMP? Siege tanks? Heat Seeking Missile? Nuke? Lacking area spells compared to the other races? Yeah, I think I see your point here.... or not...?

I do think that the raven isn't a worthy successor to the science vessel.

Reactored vikings and/or medivacs are so useful that its rarely worth it to slap a techlab on your starport. Even then, the raven feels slow, flimsy and kinda gimmicky. PDD feels like the only "good" ability but even that one only makes a big difference in timing pushes.

Ghosts on the other hand are incredible units. So much better than their BW counterparts.

Not including passives like charge or concuss

T Spells/ useable Abilities
Stim, seige, snipe, emp, cloak, nuke, 250mm cannon, auto turret, PDD, HSM, banshee cloak, yamato,mule, scan total= 13

P Spells/ useable abilities
Blink, forcefield, guardian shield, hallucinate, feedback, psi storm, make archon??(we'll count this one) warp in, graviton beam, vortex, recall, total=11 (am I missing something?)

Z Spells/ useable abilities
Burrow,inject larvae, transfuse, creep tumour, fungal, infested terran, neural parasite, changeling, corrupt, contaminate total=10

As u can see, simple math shows terran leading in spells......
