It's just starcraft as usual.

I like how you said ''Flash'' instead of ''Terran''.

So because these stats are facts, they are useless right? Because they hurt your ego as a T player. Take off that drone icon, you don't deserve it

No, he's saying because you're bad at PvT, you somehow think the matchup is balanced.

Yeah I'm saying you're so bad at PvT, it clouds your judgment as to how imbalanced it is lol.

PvT is very like TvZ. We protoss try to not die from an epic terran doom-push and get arbiters/carriers and deal major damage for the win. You terrans try to doom push us with huge epic armies of death, and we do random **** and throw units at said blob to make it die. I think the current meta-game has the standard push coming to late to hit before air tech. You hit us with a doom army before we are ready and protoss just fall over and die.
Thats why I six fact every game :D

no you're the one bad at TvP so you blame the matchup as not balanced

lol because the matchup is not balanced, I'm bad at TvP just like every single Terran in the world. Not the other way around.

I'd be good at it if it were as easy as PvT. And I'd actually admit that it's easy.

So I came to the following conclusion reading last few pages:

1. Progamers are bad at TvP these days.

2. Just like they used to suck at ZvT.

ok this is off topic so I dont know why its up, but pvt is not imbalanced. I mean at the moment its favouring protoss more so than terran, but its not extreme. The all time win rates are like a 1% difference from each other, and even now its only like what, 5-6% in the last few months? Same deal with iccup. Sorry fellow terrans, your just being whiny. The pvt imbalance exists, to a degree, but its not really all that significant, especially when compared to the current pvz imbalance or historical tvz imbalances. Pvt has always been the most balanced of the so-called favoured match ups. Get your sand out of your vagina and stop arguing about it in the wrong thread.

BeSt just served this up in his winner interview:


- Your vT strength has been gaining some attention
▲ I don't think there's any protoss player who thinks he's bad at PvT. It's not that I'm particularly better than others at PvT, it's just the game results.

Thats the closest thing a progamer has ever gotten to calling PvT imba. Thats because Best is so damn good at PvT himself. Calm actually said TvZ is imba in the interview, along with Chojja + Yellow

It's just that beyond a certain point, you can't actually "do" much more in PvT. Beyond your basic micro/macro, you can stasis well, you can storm well, you can hit timings, but the onus is really on the T player more than the P player to "win".

For example, in your standard 3base 2/1 push, most of the actions are done by the T player (e.g. where to push (to new base or to kill P?), how fast to push, EMPs) whereas all the P really does is pick a moment to pushbreak and execute at that moment (stasis, 1a2a3a, storm, rinse and repeat).

Or if the T is going vult heavy harass style, again, it's the P who has to play reactive. Basically, past the reaver/dt stage of the game, the P is reactive in the matchup, just waiting to have the macro necessary to break that critical T push.
