I haven't seen a legitimate Terran argument.

First of all, BeastyQT, is a very mediocre Terran player, so it figures that he thinks his race is so hard.

Terran has been nerfed over from ridiculous imba, to almost balanced, bad players are switching because they can't just a-move anymore and have to try.

No, Terran doesn't take the APM that Zerg does, by a long shot, nor does it take any kind of macro even close. Please don't insult Zerg by making it seem as easy as T.


LOL? Zerg is easy, I play random sometimes and never lose as zerg. You are prob some aweful kid who cannot beat a small tank push and are dick hurt because you lose every once in 20 games with your easy race.


You never lose as P, you never lose as Z, we got your point. Rediculous... more facts please... ask yourself who the awful kid is...


I dont look me up. I could play you with any race I am sure and win.

Yea Protoss is cosidered an easier and more beginner friendly race in BW but because of the mechanics in that game you still had to have skill to not suck ass when it came to army control and macro. Too bad sc2 makes it possible to be in the highest league on the ladder with like 85 EAPM when you play Protoss. The same goes for Zerg, because of larva injects and MBS any player, good mechanics or not can spend upp all his larva, remax and rally 40 lings into your main in a heartbeat, while it at least took some effort to spend your larva in BW, rallying every hatch to your opponens base like in sc2 can only the real gosus do in time in BW too but now everyone can do it.

I don't know how Blizzard would increase the mechanical part for Z and P but I don't think it will ever happen. In the end it will just be like in BW, every foreigner is gonna play P and Z and a few T while the real korean gosu players will be sick in the head with Terran because they are amazing players.
What mechanics exist for terran pray tell? one hotkey for all your buildings, hold down a letter. ZOMG the stress!

What a load of shit.

hahaha! What about one hotkey for CC's, one for rax, one for factory one for starport that you constantly produce from. While you as protoss doesn't even need to hotkey your fucking warpgates because you press W and the letter for your god damn unit. And then semi-produce from stargate and robo but you will never produce from them like a Terran does.

It's sad how offended you got because you are probably one of these 85 EAPM guys that struggle hardcore with Protoss mechanics.

I just pray to higher powers that some day Blizzard get some fucking sense and removes warpgates so Protoss players have to learn to produce from gateways all game long without quing and keeping up production and have to rally their units instead of having the luctury to kill defenders advantage and spawn units where ever they want.

Bye.

I think that would make it easier to be honest. The unfortunate problem with Protoss is they have to look away to warp units in during a fight, while both Terran and Zerg don't need to look away and can use their hotkeys.

OR maybe its not balance or nerfs or some other retarded shit. It's the new expo coming up and people want to try new races even now alot of people have finals and have to study maybe they don't play much as before and disappear from the statistic. I like how last month everything was close to 5O'/. winrate and you guys whine about balance its amazing.

Thats it, I'm done. This forum is getting ridiculous, so much whining, these threads serve zero purpose. Even pros whining now!

Why can't everyone appreciate the hard work that community members put into good content and threads? Why do threads only go past the 50 pages mark when there is some bs drama involved? Seriously guys.

The main problem is that terran was designed to allow for plenty of micro to make its units more effective. The other races were not given nearly as many microable units. Being the only race that has so many units that are microable is a blessing and a curse. On one hand the best terrans can extract more value from their units than players of other races can. This is a big reason why terrans dominated for about the first 9 months of the game. However this domination meant that balance changes were made to give the other races more of a chance.

However the balance changes that occurred were NOT the right way of going about it.

They just made some units stronger and some weaker. Instead, Blizzard should be adding microability to the other races. Then every race has a high level of depth that scales with player skill.

TLDR: Terrans shouldn't be asking for less micro. That's how Blizzard got away with introducing the stupid idea of the no-micro Battle Hellion. Terrans should instead be asking for Blizzard to add more micro to the other races.


This is a very reasonable post. It shows that not everyone is completely biased and there's hope after all =D. On topic, we are not asking for less micro to Terran. We are asking for the other races to made harder, just how you pointed out. It's Blizzard that is looking for an easier solution to the matter (battle-hellion, for instance).


I think I said this same thing 20 posts ago and it was ignored, because ppl do not want to hear blizzard is making it easier for them, they want to here that Terran is OP and Protoss is UP. It is stupid.

Funny I agree too, but if they do that P units would need to be buffed most likely, would lead to people like him crying even more. Every race has its difficult parts, but I also agree that Terran might scale differently because of their micro-abilities, which makes it harder on lower leagues.
As far as macro goes there's really nothing to possibly complain about

I agree but on the flipside, I think you too can know that not all races can be created equal, it's simply impossible.

By example, you can look at BW - Protoss was generally considered a much easier race, but also quite a bit worse at the highest levels (with T being the best).

I think this is a design issue already ingrained in SC2, and frankly unfixable at this point. You know that too. If you make protoss and zerg balanced around the 'same level of skill' for whatever amount that is measurable, you basically destroy them because they simply have much less opportunity for such things.

If T as a race dominates, it'll become boring (I'm sure gomtvt felt the subscriber hit which is why they added Calm before the Storm). If T as a race is harder, the matchmaking system will hide it from most of the general masses and the pros will simply practice harder. I know what the better alternative is here.


As I said, this isn't a design issue that's fixable. Blizzard will walk a fine line between balance and skill requirement, just like BW but in the end it's IMPOSSIBLE to get both completely equal.

You've said this isn't a balance whine thread. But it sure as HELL has the quality of one, with Terran QQ and mindless bias holding the general tone. This discussion doesn't really lead anywhere anyway.

I really wish this thread would just get locked.

TvZ and TvT are pretty well balanced. It's TvP which is the trouble. I don't think any sane person would refute that Terran is the most mechanically difficult race. As I said before, and as QT said, all Terrans want is to make Protoss and Zerg have a higher skill ceiling / more mechanically demanding.

Make charge manual and not automatically do damage.
Make Colossus have to manually be charged / have FF.
etc. etc.

I'm sure there is a lot more that could be worked on to make the game more difficult overall, at least to bring some semblance of equality of opportunity / skill with the races. One race shouldn't have to take 25% more APM to play on an equal footing with the others.



I personally find the mechanics of Terran to be the easiest. It could be because of the way I use hotkeys, that I actually find the macro aspects of terran to be far easier, but I do. And yes I do play protoss, but it's because I find stargate play a lot more interesting than anything else in the game, and TvT bores me to death.


I greatly disagree. As high diamond, P can just a move whit chargelots and colossi as u have to constantly kite and try to make efficent concave and micro vikings same time. And against HT if u miss those vital emps or snipes its all over. Me as high diamond struggle to fight against full upgraded P army. Offcourse i harras overtime, but if they sit on 2 base u cant do most of the time much. Macro whit T is easy, but engagin mechanics I think not.

The irony of this post...

And did I read correctly? Protoss players are now claiming that warpgate is a disadvantage somehow? You know you don't HAVE to research it, right? You can also turn warpgates back into gateways. I'll be waiting for this new metagame shift where protoss players opt not to get warpgate tech because it is more effective to use gateways.

Oh wait... that is totally ridiculous.

You can't really opt not to use it because it's balanced around having WG. I think this is a design flaw though not necessarily a balance issue. Different topic though.

I haven't seen a legitimate Terran argument.

First of all, BeastyQT, is a very mediocre Terran player, so it figures that he thinks his race is so hard.

Terran has been nerfed over from ridiculous imba, to almost balanced, bad players are switching because they can't just a-move anymore and have to try.

No, Terran doesn't take the APM that Zerg does, by a long shot, nor does it take any kind of macro even close. Please don't insult Zerg by making it seem as easy as T.


Just clearing creep takes 5x more actions and thought than spreading creep. Just an example.


Scan
Select 3 units
Attack move
Fall back

vs
Burrow spine crawler
Queen select
C-Click
Fall back

Not the fairest example, I think.

Terran units are good, but you need to make them even better as you improve. It's actually such a fragile unit composition, you can lose literally half your army to one baneling landmine, and then lose the rest because 24/controlgroup mutas, as all your AA died to 2 banelings.

The irony of this post...

And did I read correctly? Protoss players are now claiming that warpgate is a disadvantage somehow? You know you don't HAVE to research it, right? You can also turn warpgates back into gateways. I'll be waiting for this new metagame shift where protoss players opt not to get warpgate tech because it is more effective to use gateways.

Oh wait... that is totally ridiculous.

Gateway units are balanced around the idea of instant reinforcements. Such a metagame shift will never happen.

God this thread is stupid.
