How sad can you be? Because I know most of you literally mean it half the time when you say it.
Do you realize that everytime you say '1a2a3a' it means YOUR bad? It means that because Protoss is able to do that to you, YOU suck? I'm sure none of you realize that.
Sure Protoss may be able to do it, but does that make them bad? No. Stork could 1a2a3a all day over your face, does that mean Stork is bad? No. It means YOUR bad.
You see a long time ago, a really good player, and a good friend of mine once told me (as I once played protoss and transited into Terran)
A good Terran or Zerg will make it a BITCH for you to do anything and will make everything seem like a nightmare and a burden
This is true, you see at low level play, Terrans and Zergs try to mimic jaedong, flash or whatever else, they turtle, do minimal vulture harass, and have absolutely 0 idea about how to crawl back into games.
This skill level I will call D- through C+
Now, at these levels, T's just turtle thinking 'lulz 200/200 T pwns U ez gg no re l0l' and z's are like 'l0l saur0n z3rG is the s3x lul' then 10seconds later when the Protoss marches out
'mother fucking faggot piece of shit, your so fucking lucky your units are so strong and you actually have better macro than me and control your units and actually watch your base and macro and micro at the same time and cast your psi storms and control your arbiters from dying you fucking sluts do you have any idea how hard it is to be me?'
yeah actually, he does.
You see, when I was really bad and played Protoss, I had the opportunity to play much better zerg's/terran's due to my friends. I didn't feel any of this, sure I could macro, but my 1a2a3a would be stopped dead by proper pushes, proper unit layout of lurkers/scourage, proper sniping, proper control, even macro, good base layout, good multitask.
Do you guys know what its like for protoss at B- ++++ level? They want to take a 3rd and oh look a mine, "ok let me build a pylon and a cannon or bring some goons to cle- YOU FUCKING VULTURE WHAT THE FUCK IS YOUR PROBLEM' so they get their goons to go kill those vults and clear the mine and oh look, 239049203490239042890 spider mines delaying the goons pathing. thats cool, oh look you sent another probe and didn't watch it? oh well the vulture just sniped that too, go ahead send another.
ok so you clear the mines, only to realize the entire map is defensively mined up, and the Terran has the fucking view of God on your base and units. So you spend your time WATCHING your units, the Terran, his factories, his vultures roaming the map, and clearing the mines, trying to still avoid vulture raids.
Oh, whats that? Protoss NEEDS arbiter to survive late game, ok let me get that, OH WAIT, if I tech up to arbiter without keeping unit count, that timing push will kill me, even tho i can 1a2a3a it, a competent terran will be positioned and see it coming. you know? a GOOD Terran.
Lets face it, PvT is a fucking BITCH at B- ++++ and it can be for the Terran too, and sure every terran including myself has our days were we get angry at DT's, hell look at Sea[Shield] @ WWI? 'Dog manner unit'. But still, I'm sure stork could say the same about vultures, 2factory pushes, 3fact pushes, 2fact + port pushes, all-in timing attacks.
Now onto PvZ, k cool, you think that hydra/ling is the key to victory? maybe vs bad protoss, but your bad too so it doesn't work. yes because your bad, the zeal/archon/goon/temp ball will kill you everytime. its not the 1a2a3a, its YOU SUCK.
A good zerg would counter mass zeals with lurkers. a good zerg would get defiler vs heavy archon/goon. a good zerg would know the needed drones and the required hatcheries to combat the protoss. a good zerg would keep map contrl with overlords and zerglings (unless they are heavy sair). A good zerg would learn to beat the '1a2a3a' and make the protoss go 'fucking zerg waves jesus christ, you kill 1 and oh look 15hatches pop some fucking eggs, its like china population over here'
You see, PvZ at B- ++++ is about timing, even the slightest mess up can cost them the game, yes thats right, 20seconds. do you know what 30seconds is? Well let the Christopher Columbus of Campaign Editor tell you what 30seconds is. 30seconds is 4hatcheries, producing 2larva, and that is 8hydralisks or 16zerglings. 8hydralisks can beat 4 dragoon. dragoon build time is 40seconds, larva is 15seconds. therefore, 35total, hydras reinforce faster. now, 12goons > 12hydras, but 20hydras > 12 goons. 12 zeals > 12 hydra, 16hydra > 12 zeal.
the zerg work in numbers, its about not letting them obtain it. they all require something.
Just because a Protoss can '1a2a3a' does that make him a multitask God? a macro God? No, the logic behind 1a2a3a is pitiful. It means he attacks with 3 groups. But where did those groups come from? Macro? Multitask? WHAT ARE THESE FOREIGN CONCEPTS YOU SPEAK OF? Oh you mean Protoss HAS to multitask and macro good in order to use 1a2a3a? gee golly, I never thought of that.
Protoss must utilize multitask during battles and macro over all, if a T and P have even macro, but the T has better multitask, sure the P will have a larger FIRST army, but the second army the T will have more and better saturation throughout bases and macro overall in the late/midgame..
So from now on, I want every '1a2a3a' person to understand what 1a2a3a really means.
1a) I suck
2a) The protoss has better forte's than me, and if I played Protoss i'd have to learn them too.
3a) I just use this to cope with the mass majority of sucky players who refuse to accept every player and each race has its own advantages/disadvantages and its up to me to decide how they are balanced out.
K?
1a2a3a sup?
