Why doesn't Rain do that every game? It is much more beneficial than trying to play a real game vs an opponent that can't lose. I would all in every game, and it is the makers of the game that should make sure it isn't viable, not me.

He needed at least another crawler, one not enough when you see that many Marines piling up. It would take Rain a long time to break the back rocks with Marines only, by which time Nestea would have had time to get speed and mass more Lings to defend...

Edit: fuck, game 5 is gonna be the same thing -_-

NesTea throws so many units into siege tanks that if there was a terran that could keep up in macro (as in, go past 2 base vs zergs 4-5... stay 1 base down) that they could win because NeaTea just keeps throwing his army away...

I have no clue what they can do since I am a n00b player but I hope they change something so that terran doesn't go all in marine on a regular basis.


Then Blizzard needs to do something so that Terran isn't forced to do that to win.

Its more like, Blizzard needs to do something about the map. Map that favoured one race will make games turn bad.
Steppes: Rush distance so short, ok Terran allin
Blistering Sand: Terran will likely lose 'cos of the backdoor(front door with a rock actually)--->Terran allin.

Honestly, ZvT is close to unwatchable in it's current state. It's basically about wheter Terran can win in the first 8 minuts or so and at least half the time it comes down to some big SCV allin.

you obviously haven't watched jinro play.

It's possible for good Terrans to play macro games vs Zerg. It's just that most of 'em never really does it and therefore suck at it once it happens.


this logic is bullshit. terran would love to be able to compete in macro games with a zerg. the problem is takin the 3rd. any losses in the early game make your army so small and the inevitable muta harass is impossible to deal with.

Thats the problem, mutas flying around rediculously fast and they attack every side of ur base at once, picking anything off not protected by a LARGE group of rines.

its just very diffucult to defend muta harass when ur spread to 3-4 bases.

PS. thors dont counter mutas...we need a better A2G mech unit

Build 7-10 turrets per base vs mass Muta... if you remove their mobility, they're terribad combat units.


did u just suggest we spend 2100 to 3000 minerals defending 3 bases?

Yep.

SCVs need to have less health or be slower or something.

This SCV + Marine rush is so broken.

Probably true in this case. Havent seen much from Rain so far this GSL. Didn't he 1-base his way to RO8 so far?
