Terran is in a bit of trouble right now but new styles will develop. This whining is stupid.

Terran has dominated most of SC2; time to suck it up and go through a tough patch. Yeah, if you're a pro I can see the frustration, but outside of that stop crying.
Did you ever say Yes to a single joy?

It's cute that the terrans are only now realizing that balance means their race is not more powerful than the others.

As cute as Zergs realizing that maybe they in fact don't have to worry anymore while playing the game. They all have such peaceful smiles when they go to bed, I wouldn't want to hurt that, they have suffered enough already, they deserve some rest.

Number of players in certain leagues, doesn't say squat about balance. It doesn't take into account factors if some race has more players playing it, and skill of the players playing that race.
Win rates between equally skilled players is more significant than how many that plays a certain race.

If you see to the fact that less players is in gm or m you can just argue that terran players is more unskilled as you can argue that is the other races that is imbalanced, so it is a poor measurement for imbalance.

So basically he's saying that terran was never OP, we were just better players. kk.

Terrans are performing bad therefor people are choosing other races. Terran is simply the hardest race to play in the game. Cant win vs Protoss death ball, and too many holes in TvZ thanks to the new queens.

I am one of the Terrans who just recently switched to Zerg and im doing quite well now :D. Im higher ranked now as Zerg then I ever was as Terran lol.

Everytime I get a Terran on ladder....I chuckle ^^;; Free points

gm is a very good indication of skill, if you are good enough you will be promoted and if you are not you won't. When you see that the top 200 players from each region have a disproportionate number of terrans accross the board, you can draw the conclusion that terran players are not as good as protoss and zerg players (on ladder + foreign only). Since we are dealing with a very high sample of players pooling into gm, it is possible to infer that terran is indeed the weakest (ladder + foreign).
Question.?

I don't think Blizzard care about "interesting" numbers too. Back when MC was complaining, there were, I think, 6-8 terrans in top10 gm in KR. Nothing happened.

Something did happen, otherwise there wouldn't be so few terrans.

You want to take Blizzards job at balancing the game, huh?

The biggest problem is that there isn't any good terran in EU except for the Empire terrans.


Yes and every single EU Zerg/Protoss are amazing.

When someone said (or even says now) that about korean Terrans, you all start bitching and crying about other races being UP. Where's the consistency? Stop being such fucking hypocrites.


lol otolia use your brain or dont post theres lot of amateurs/semi pro in gm, and like none of them are terrans, this means quite a bit

If those numbers represented balance then Terran would of been OP race all the way up until the last patch. Didn't terrans cry after the protoss upgrade patch?? Somehow after no balance changes it's all fine because top terrans made the necessary adjustments which is what all the terrans who whine should be doing.


Terran was never most represented race in highest leagues in whole history of sc2. Check your facts before posting.

Win ratios are irrelevant... 19% in the top 200 MMR is far more relevant.
I'm embarrased by my past actions and even more ashamed of my present thoughts and future endeavors to clear my name.

Yes the best way to balance a game that's meant to be a serious e-sport is to have periods of OP for different races.

Queendralisks, tier 3 Protoss, tier 3 Zerg, Protoss allins, Zergs who take 3rd and just go allin (no drones on third).

It's good to be Terran
