Seriously fellow Terran players, get a grip. Remember when we told Zerg players to use infestors more when they were QQ'ing? Now as Terran struggles and they say build Ghosts, there is just QQ.. Come on now.

Ghosts are the answer.

I really think Terrans are going to keep getting rolled against BL/Infestor/corruptor unless more ghost play is used. A few good EMPs and the composition gets rolled over.

Without fungal the composition isn't very strong.

Very similar to TvP where a colossus/HT/gateway army rolls over T unless they can get some good EMPs on the HTs (or snipe them). Once the storms are out of the way colossus/gateway balls are completely manageable.

Actually if you let zerg gets that much of a econ advantage like this game just now, no matter what Nada did, he would still lose.
Morrow didn't even ultilize every tricks that Zerg has. Lets say Nada make a few clocked ghost, well Morrow just 1-a everything and instand remax with his endless mineral supply.
Or he just drop Nada 3rds or his mainbase with ease and Nada just can't do anything about it.
Nada was dead 10 mins before he typed out.

Oh I don't mean in this game specifically. Nada lost because he let Morrow expand endlessly and drone up to over 100 drones and creep the entire map all while not putting on any aggression whatsoever.

The way ZvT works now, Terran has to rely on its early game pressure. Unlike in BW, you just need to apply pressure till Zerg makes a few more zergling instead on drone and Terran can sit back on 2 bases wait for vessle than push.
Because of the larva inject mechanic, Terran in SC2 needs to kill or do something to let Zerg makes less than 10+ drones in early game if Terran wants to have a fair chance in mid-late game.

In most ZvT nowadays, I can tell whos gonna win in the first 10 mins and almost always right about it. If you are 40 scvs- 70drones than its kind of over unless Zerg screw up badly or Terran pull off some incredible timing push that can kill Zerg's 3rd.


It's balanced by the fact that there are so many ways terran can be aggressive early and do lots of damage. Seriously do you want terran to have a better late game than zerg as well as a better early game? How will that make the game balanced? If you're going to nerf zerg late game you would also have to nerf terran early game or it would just become a joke.

My post wasn't a balance QQ, what I meant is the game is too linear now. Either you get early game or late game advantage due to what race you are playing. I wish, if some how they give Z and T more option for their gameplay that would be great.
The game is just too predictable now. Like me when I laddering, if I can't do any damage to the Zerg opponent in the first 10mins, I just lost my will to play, lol. And if I kill like 15 of his drones, I just know that I would roll over him later on.
O_O I don't like that predictable feel at all.

indeed, korean lag seems to be the best explanation for what happened; nada seemed way too low action on the map - i wonder whether his apm confirms that

i think he would have wanted to drop a lot more often and on multiple fronts

And you make 0 marauders vs. zerg. The gas is there. The only thing you're lacking is the production (rax + tech lab).

Hell even fi it cuts into your tank count... isn't that better than just outright losing the second BL/infestors/corruptors come out?

I agree Ghosts are the answer for infestor but not in this game. Morrow got this no matter what Nada did. I think thats what some people in thread is trying to say.

Zerg has to harass the Protoss too. It's part of the game... Do drops, baneling bombs, nydus, small armys to spread them out etc...

That's why Zergs are doing okay against Protoss now instead of getting steamrolled. They've learnt to add new things into their play.

Terran need to learn now. MMA is perfectly capable of taking macro games off Zerg so it obviously can be done...

It's really the speed that Zerg's can re-max while also switching tech's that make you need the tank count.

Exactly..Morrow could have went exclusively ling/baneling and still won.
People in here need to stop trying to use this game as an example of Infestor/Brood being OP when Morrow was so massively ahead for most of the game.

If Morrow thinks he can drone up to 80-100 vs July he's dead already.

By the time infestors got out in this game, it was over. Nada didn't play well at all. If you want to complain about BL/infestor/corruptor, you cannot actually use this game as evidence why it may be OP. Nada was just so far behind.

4 ghosts is going to significantly lower your tank/marine numbers?

What's better... being rolled by broodlord/infestor/corruptor or atleast putting up some sort of fight with ghosts?

Clearly marines/tanks/vikings does very little to BL/Infestor/corruptor...


tell me exactly how can ghost counter broodlords? emp infestors? thats it? and snipe broodlords? you know broodlord will outrange everything right and corruptors pretty much 5 shot vikings. usually between progamers if u make ghosts and try to emp infestors or snipe broodlords they get killed b4 what they can actually do.
yes

So what do you want to do about it? You want to take away zerg's (unharassed) late game advantage and then expect them to still be competitive?

Not getting a few ghosts to take out Infestors that negate the superior range of your 800 Vikings is pretty stupid no?
The Vikings would have been much more effective without all the fungals, as I have said before in this thread.
