SC is like 2 levels above that guy, Extreme scouted too late while playing to greedy and wasn't able to defend. End of story. wrong, 1 gate robo FE is widely regarded as the OPTIMUM response to the 1-1-1. and he didn't scout too late because he knew it was coming, otherwise he wouldn't have had 3 immortals by that time - no protoss suddenly rushes for 3 immortals at that 9~10min mark. | ||

Also just a trend thing, it worked 4-5 times in the up and down matches so now every Terran has added it to their repertoire. I feel like it's one of those builds that'll dominate for a few weeks (I don't see a protoss winning this month  ), then get figured out and kind of fall off the face of the earth, waiting to be reinvented. Let's wait a bit before calling OP. It's strong and it's trendy. | ||

I really hope Wolf will stop mentioning this fast collosus build it doesnt work at all. The banshees can focus fire the collosus pretty easily and you won't have thermal lance in time so the collosus is also very vunerable to siege tanks. And you wont have enough stalkers to deal with the banshees. | ||

It was just as powerful then but Protoss players got so used to seeing it that they figured out ways to hold it. It was never patched then it won't be patched now. Wolf's right. Toss players have to start expecting it more and scouting before they put their nexus down. Hey one base toss can't stop this. try it yourself before making stupid comments. Terran get so much more minerals compared to toss. They can just mine out before attacking you with everything they have and there is nothing you can do. | ||

Sc only brung half of his SVC's so that wasnt an all in joking right? bringing half your SCVs means youre only leaving enough workers to make reinforcements for the attack. if you lose half your SCVs and youre on 1 base in any situation, youre screwed. | ||

What if banshees did, instead of 12x2 dmg, something like 7+5 to light x2... that way stalkers might be able to do better? Or maybe a range nerf? 6 range banshees have always seemed a bit... awkward. A range nerf would ruin their role against tank+marine though. The dmg thing sounds better to me. | ||

I honestly can't think of anything else that would be ready in time, gotta scout it quick though so you don't over commit on sentries. Immortals are just useless to defend this. A good terran will be scvs and marines preventing your immortals from targetting the tanks. | ||

I guess we will wait one more month to see if any tosses can deal with it. | ||

Its been there for a year and Ive never seen it countered if done properly :D Its been the "Oh im behind let me do it in the second game of the bo3" build before, but now its the "LOL I NEED TO WIN THIS GAME"! | ||
