PvT is such an easy matchup to learn, everything is very mechanical and revolves around remembering/knowing timings -- Yes it can be very micro intensive, but so can PvZ. With a couple of hours practice every day PvT becomes a very natural matchup. PvZ however, relies on game knowledge and dynamic responses, it is a decision based matchup that is very hard to learn because there are so many tiny factors. Mastering PvZ means knowing a lot about both races and how they work. I'm pretty sure I could coach a platinum player to master league level PvT with few of weeks of practice, but PvZ would be a pain. I don't think PvT is Protoss favored, but it's just a very clean matchup which is easy to understand. That is how I look at it at least.. ^-^ If you look at JYP records in GSL it's mindblowing. Both his pvp and pvz are better than 70% and he has 0% in PvT. That's just incredible. Especialy because a good chunk of his pvp took place in the post 1-1-1 era | ||

On the highest level I feel it is purely about who is the better player when it comes down to preparation of build orders, multitasking and execution That is how I look at it at least.. ^-^ I think it's a comfort thing. Because JYP has never been confident in PvT, he's always resigned when he faces a decent Terran. He lacks enthusiasm and cannot translate his gamesense from PvZ/PvP to PvT. | ||
