I would never, EVER shout imba at one of the countless games where thestc obliterates his opponents; but CLuck shouldn't have won the 2nd game; huk hat total mapcontrol; then: a) colossi get negated by vikings b) high templar get negated by EMP and then marauders just killed the gateway army, after kinda insta-killing the nexus I don't see what's imbalanced about getting units that do well against your opponent's composition. CLuck definitely didn't play perfectly that game, but neither did HuK. HuK saw a large marauder army and didn't make immortals, which I'm pretty sure Blizzard intended as a counter to marauders. He also burned a lot of storms on small groups of units. I agree CLuck didn't play well, but I wasn't amazed by HuK's play either. | ||

Cluck didn't do any flashy micro moves but still, when you're nervous you tend to make macro mistakes. Also offtopic: cranberries are you the 1400 rated toss ? ;o If you have 30 marauders vs 50, all the fancy micro doesn't help when you just get steamrolled. | ||

Too bad that Stimmed Marauders can plow through the amount of Immortals you'll have on 1 Robo, and that's not even taking into account the use of EMP. | ||

And I don't understand what you were trying to say with your post, because that's exactly what he was saying. I just wanted to disagree. Like people want to disagree with statistics on the forums all the time lately. And because you can´t queue with warpgates that means protoss has harder time having horrible macro, therefore Protosses have to play very badly to lose to T. It makes sense IMO. | ||

Really these forums lately....Terran wins: OOOOOOPP NEERF Protoss wins: OMG DID YOU SEE THE SKILL OF PROTOSS PLAYER?!! The problem is that I just feel that zerg/protoss users dont win, its just the terran that loses. In other words, terrans seem to have a much larger margin of error. They can make many minor mistakes or a few major mistakes and still take the game. Show me a zerg or toss that can do that. Then again, I guess I'm talking about an improbable situation where both players are at equal skill levels. But admit it, it feels good to see the most nerfed race get some share of the glory.

What I said is "queuing isn't good macro" is what he was saying, so that's not disagreeing, that's agreeing. | ||

Stimmed marauders plow through any unit P has. He's not suggesting that HuK have an army built out of immortals (I think), but rather that he add them for the high damage in supporting the rest of the gateway composition. | ||

I don't see what's imbalanced about getting units that do well against your opponent's composition. if your opponent has no other options, then yes - it should be even (50/50) but it's not CLuck definitely didn't play perfectly that game, but neither did HuK. HuK saw a large marauder army and didn't make immortals, which I'm pretty sure Blizzard intended as a counter to marauders. He also burned a lot of storms on small groups of units. I agree CLuck didn't play well, but I wasn't amazed by HuK's play either. EMP hard-counters immortals because one EMP takes away all the (hardened) shield; then immortals are useless considering their high cost; | ||
