The Letting Off Steam Thread - Page 79

I'm pissed at myself that I didn't do anything but shower since I got up at 12 today. I'm not angry that I got up at 4. I'm angry that I wasted 4 hours of my life reading LoL and I don't even know what else. TT

I fucking hate people who use this thread to passive aggressively rage at another poster. Oh wait...

FUCKING PHOTOSHOP CAN SUCK MY DICK IF I HAD ONE. HOW DARE YOU KEEP CRASHING. ON TOP OF THAT MY TABLET WAS SPAZZING THE FUCK OUT AND I HAD TO REINSTALL THAT SHIT 3 TIMES. THEN I DROPPED MY LAPTOP BATTERY ON MY FOOT AND NOW THIS EPISODE OF MY KOREAN DRAMA HAS WAY TOO MANY ADS. THE TECHNOLOGY GOD IS TESTING ME TODAY. ALSO I'M HUNGRY.

Blizzard fucked up SC2 for Mac users, I can only play without my computer running hotter than the sun if I cap my fps at 11. I've been losing so much due to lag that I can now beat the people I meet according to my MMR despite not being able to micro beyond pressing T (If I try to stutter step, my marines will move command half a screen before stopping...).

It's pissing me off like hell that no matter how much I work my ass off and try to actually help people they just don't give a fuck about what I say and go on with their bullshit. Seriously? GTFO and don't annoy me ever again or I'll sterilize you in your sleep.

I fucking hate razer. They're milking esports and its fans for all its worth with shitty product, not supporting it -_-

My rant is--despite this being the general forum--about Protoss in SC2. It's the only race I have a losing record against, and that's completely ridiculous. Whether I'm getting rolled by a stalker/collosi (and sometimes, JUST STALKER) ball in the lategame or getting cannon-cheesed game after game after game, it's just utter bullshit. I've had Toss lock me in my main with cannons, expand to MY GOLD, mass void rays like fist pumping pros, and four gate me into oblivion. I'm not calling OP or whatever, I'm just saying that for me, personally, this matchup is utter garbage. I wish I could veto this matchup--but then again, it'd take me 7 minutes to find a match because 5/10 games are against Toss anyway.

So you know what? I'm 6 pooling. Every. Fucking. Game. Sounds childish? Yeah, probably is. Don't care! I'm sick of being stuck in gold because I'm losing 4 matches in a row to stalker massing, four-gating, cannon-rushing scrub protoss. You know I haven't lost to a Terran in weeks? At least 12 games in a row against Terran I've won. Zerg is 50-50 (and I always have fun in zvz, at least). But goddumned Protoss man!

Wanna use banelings? Pro forcefields! Can't do bling-mines because any Toss with a brain will have an observer with them. Roaches? Hard countered by mass Stalker. Hydras are worthless unless against mass void rayds, and if they have a critical mass of VRs you're fucked anyway. Sentries lock my army in the main while they cancel my expo. The race that's supposed to be expensive ends up expanding faster anyway. So fuck it. Fuck toss. That is all.

/end rant

Protoss, I hated it when playing Terran and even more as Zerg.
- Probe : being able to build multiple things with 1 probe..(cannonrushes mostly)..4 seconds? - > probe just put down 2-3 pylons..and while it's regening shields running away..u cant kill the pylon..he comes back and plops down 2-3 more cannons..NP! Let alone the fact they can wall themselves in behind certain mineral lines.
Not only do i need to put a drone there, so he cant wall between 2 pylons..also 1 at most ramps, and 1 on the probe..+ additional ones to kill the buildings that are constructing. all because of 1 probe..
Forge opening? mmm..400 mins to build nexus..see a small hole in his reaction/defense? use it to cannonrush instead yo!

- Observers...why an invisible detector? T has Ravens that are fragile and fly ahead of army because of speed..and also take over first displayed skills when selected in army with mmm, so u gotta do more actions to stim and stuff, than without one. They also can be feedbacked, ravens do have usefull skills tho, that makes up for it I suppose. Still rather have invisible detector than a raven.
Z have overseers with neigh-usefull skills and who get sniped easily..(by Snipe (ghosts) or just any antiair unit..or feedback)

- The air power, only race with a medium-to-strong air+ground hitter (voidray or carrier..though carriers suck in small numbers)...z has Mutas which are good in big numbers but way more fragile...and t has none (roflvikings) besides BC's.... way more expensive and also bad till you have 2-3+

- Static defense, a building that can shoot air and ground,regens shields...and detects?
T has bunkers which need supply to fill it, with no detection...and turrets for detection + air only.
Z is also split,ground defense and antiair,with only antiair being detection..why?! Sure a cannon costs 50 mins more than bunkers/spines..but for that u get the 2 things combined and shield regen...Downfall? immobility like t's defense...oh no.

- Stalkers... faster than marauders and roaches by default (till stim(costs hp) or roachspeed (extra money) comes in.
So they can pick off units early on...lost so many games to mass stalker..more than to mass marine due banelings.
Core T army : Marines (AA and ground)
Core P army : Stalkers (AA and ground)
Core Z army : Roaches (no AA,just ground)
lost so many games to mass stalker..more than to mass marine due banelings helping..
Stalkers? mass ling ofc! and the second they see you comei n with lings they just go BOOM zealots..
Yeah it must be hard to reactionary pick a unit vs Z..
