Same drill as usual:
  • No caster bashing.
  • Excessive tournament bashing that detracts from game discussion will be met with moderator action. Criticism is welcome, whining is not.
  • In general do your best to stay on topic and discuss what we're all here for: the games.
Enjoy the games guys.

It's not skill-less at all. Control in those fights is absolutely insanely taxing. It's not like ZvZ where whoever has the better Roach concave wins, you are:

- forcefielding off Zealots around Archons
- using Archons to break forcefields
- Blinking Stalkers out of melee range
- Blinking Stalkers to pick off Colossus
- focus firing Immortals on Stalkers/Colossus
- spreading out units so opposing Colossus don't do too much AoE
- focus firing Colossus on clumped units
- warping in units, which unlike the other races directly takes you away from the battle as you can't do it just from hotkeys, you need to move the camera and click a bunch
- chronoboosting gateways/robo/upgrades

It's still incredibly monotonous and even though there is a lot of subtle positioning, none of it actually has any of the 'wow' factor as a spectator that good marine splitting, blink micro or a well executed 3-way flank from a Z. My current PvP is literally based around surviving to the lategame and getting double robo collosus with attack upgrades, they wipe out everything on the ground it's just silly.

As a Protoss player I really wanted this unit taken out of HoTS and replaced with a more mechanically interesting and strategic unit, but apparently that's not happening


this pvp sucks thing is really stuck in peoples heads... sad

in my opinion its far more interesting than zvz and tvt if it involves bio
pvp these days offers a lot of different openings and ways to play the midgame (all of them involve blink stalkers but well you have standards in every race)
the lategame army is often the same (and its rarly mass colossus like in the last game (in tournament play at least) but thats also pretty much the same with every other mu


whats more interesting is ofc opinionbased but saying pvp sucks and is always colossus-wars is just wrong

PvP is better than ZvZ imo, as the early and midgames ARE interesting and there are variations in compositions and it's an extremely micro-heavy matchup. Chargelot/Archon for example is super solid in the midgame, but there comes a point where it can't get engage well at all vs collosus blobs

Collosus is just a silly unit, game would be better without it, and that's coming from a Protoss player here

Sigh..... I don't understand why Huk can beat MC and the like and lose to players like HasuObs and Elfi... makes zero sense to me.


Because Huk lived and practiced for MC for almost a year? He knows how MC plays. He doesn't know how HasuObs or Elfi plays.


hasu played a completly different style than whats standart in korea right now
looked like huk wasnt prepared for that oldschool pvp

I agree. I think in the last few months PvP has been SOOOO much better than ZvZ, and TvT often hinges too much on a 1 second mistake(not having your tanks sieged up against bio) that turns even the most dominating game into an instant loss.

Well I mean PvP is just as unforgiving with mistakes, it's just TvT is a lot of the time a lot more action packed so it forces more mistakes(which I'd still say are a lot less devastating, since I mean not being sieged is not anything close to a small mistake)
