Funny how you did the same in past threads but because I don't have 6000 posts I am not as cool

Haha, yes, he didn't win because his macro mechanic allows stacking or because he doesn't need workers to continue playing the game

Terran apologists boggle the mind

I think there's a pretty legitimate reason all there are more "tip top" Terran players than Protoss/Zerg players .. It's because the Terran race is easier.


That's not a very good list of tip-top Terrans, unless you're pulling them from only this tournament.

He's definitely top tier in SC2. Not the same tier as IdrA/Morrow/Dimaga obviously, but definitely up there with EG and Root guys.

You're probably right. I'm not a fan of LS is all

Being better at something with absolutely no drawback to it in any way isn't really "different", it's just poor design.

The drawback doesn't have to be in the mules, but in the other facets of the race. Of course, it could be in the mules, if they really are too good, but you can't just say that mules are good and so they should be nerfed. By that logic, if you have a race that's good at macro but has weak units, and a race that's bad at macro but has strong units, you'd make them all the same.
I'm not saying that mules are necessarily fine, but that you can't just say that they're not okay just because they do something that the other races can't.

Why would you sacrifice all your drones when mutas are on the way and the terran has no ani-air in his push. Just sack that expansion and save the drones.


Uh because if he didn't they would've rolled through and destroyed his entire base? the Drones fighting gave him a few seconds to save the Lair and other tech structures. If he hadn't fought with Drones, the Lair would've died and it would have been GG.

He needed to mass spine crawlers above his main ramp and fake that he was trying to save his natural and try to gain time... what he did really wasn't a good thing to do. Also his Roaches needed to focus the Marauders, he was just a-moving which makes him auto-target workers. Was just poor play.

Although mules are just absolutely ridiculous, Terran can support like 4 barracks off 2 bases with 0 workers on minerals because of them.


I was actually thinking of this just as the T's army was scouted, "He's going to lose and people are going to say he should've built Spine Crawlers".

Spine Crawlers take forever and a damn day to build. You cannot build Spine Crawlers when you see an incoming attack - you NEED to build them ahead of time or else they'll just die while morphing because of the completely ridiculous build time. It wouldn't have helped much, if at all, maybe delaying for a second or two.

And what delaying could Slush have done? You literally just A-move up the damn ramp. There was no delaying that army could have done.

Why do marauders and reapers both do insane damage to buildings, while Zerg and Protoss have no equivalent?

None of those Zergs were in the tournament if that's what you're trying to say. The fact is there were far less Zerg players entering the tournament and it stands to reason that there would be far less left to this point.

This thread is devolving into a Zerg whinefest pretty fast which is sad, theres a million threads on the SC2 forum for this do we really need another one here?

That's what I'm saying. What other weaknesses does the Terran race have to make up for this? Pretty much none.
