I love how all of a sudden everyone is a game designer. And I don't like useless units. What if all of a sudden a zerg unit was completely useless EVERYWHERE? | ||

If blizz starts to balance the shit around team games there is seriously something going wrong internally for them. Have you not read a single SC2 forum in the past 2 months? Nerfing early reapers is most certainly a change that has 1v1 in mind. | ||

You maybe delay a unit for alittle bit, but you lost some gas but gain 300 minerals. Unless of course you don't like scouting, then maybe it is a useless unit. | ||

Thus any decent Terran should never have an issue with 6 pool unless their screwing up the most basic opener Keep Practicing. This shouln't be an issue | ||

On Metal, you're hoping you're in close positions, or it doesn't work. I tried to say that 6 pool doesnt work at all. Tarson went for slow rax after depot+gass, and was still able to hold of mardows 6 pool really easy. | ||

Or build a rax which actually has health, and costs 150m as opposed to 50/50, and doesn't take build time away from useful units. Even then, I don't like a unit that's ONLY good for scouting. | ||
