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.
This for sure. People always love to give advice (T's telling Z to use infestor) but when it comes to their own play they see it's not as easy as it seems. Zergs had to put up with 6 months of Terrans telling them how to play.

Yeah true, but Terran supposed to be stronger than Zerg 200 vs 200 not the other way around which seems like it w/ brood/infestor/corruptor combo. That's the difference. According to blizzard 200 vs 200 P>T>Z so of course the weaker have to harass stronger.

The Vikings would have been much more effective without all the fungals, as I have said before in this thread.
And where do you get the gas to produce ghosts, vikings and tanks? I mean some of you people think it's "go mass ghost viking and you win", but the zerg can easily tech switch into mass ling baneling and roll you over if you stop making tanks for so long. It's not that easy my friend.

But is a 200/200 of tank/marine/viking supposed to be stronger than a 200/200 of BL/Infestor/Corrupter? I don't think so.

well colossus outranges too but you can emp protoss army
btw emp range 10 broodlord range 9.5
snipe range is 10 too

Blizzard (David Kim) is taking a look at the late game zerg with infestor/brood lords/corruptors and I think that it's warranted. Even with no infestors there are no real counter to the broodlords as the vikings has to fight the corruptors back and forth.

Did you watch the game? Nada has plenty of Vikings. The corruptors were easily able to pick them off because of the fungal damage+holding them in range for the corruptors. Without this problem, less vikings are needed obviously.
I'm not saying its easy, but Terran acting like they cant afford 3-4 Ghosts over the course of a whole game is silly.

But broodlings move they don't just stand still when they spawn, so their range isn't exactly 9.5, it's actually 9.5 + X = Where x is the range between where the broodlings spawn and where your units are standing.

Call me crazy, but if ghosts cancel the infestors out, go mass marine vs broodlords. that way the corruptors are just wasted.

That won't work, all the zerg would have to build are mass banelings (instead of infestors). You need vikings.

I'm sure blizzard is working on it. but i'd make fungal shorter range so they could be sniped easier or slow infestors so they can't get away as easy after launching devastating & game breaking fungals.

I would love to see where they were quoted saying that, especially considering that 200/200 could be 200 zerglings vs 200 in hellions. Infestor/Broodlord/Corruptor is VERY high tech, VERY expensive, I feel like the terran equivalent would be equally strong Ghost/BC/Viking or similar, the trouble is getting there.

Zerg has to do the same thing against protoss.
The deathball still works, infestors don't control it very well.
They have to do constant damage or drops all game long to keep protoss off their end-game tech units.
So terran has to do the same thing, what's the problem?

Guys, let's be honest here, even blizzard said that they are looking at this and might eventually have change the balance somehow. So it's not like terran players are just qqing and not looking for a solution. Even dde, arguably one of the best foreign terrans out there right now posted in here and shared the same concerns like anyone else. Please just don't call all the terrans who are posting their concerns in here balance whiners, even blizzard acknowledged that there might be a problem and they normally don't say alot when it comes down to balance.
