The fact of the matter is if Terran wants to camp in SC2, they will. There is next to nothing you can do to force engagements against a dedicated camper like Thorzain, especially on maps that allow splitting like that. Ultra drop? Yeah killed some tech then they all died to 20 cloaked ghosts. What would have been REAL strategy would be stephano dropping a few infestors with the ultras, and sending 1-2 overseers, to lure the ghosts, then fungaling and killing them all.

But SC2 simply has not reached that level.

I wouldn't expect the blindest Stephano fanboy on TL to understand why any Stephano game was a bad game.

I´ll have to be honest, I am not liking how Thorzain plays TvZ lately he just turtles too damn much. Maps like metal don´t help and now we get Shakuras.....

Its not about abilities like Fungal either this is mostly because metal and shakuras are too defensive maps. You can defend everything without giving it too much though.

And yeah as much as people may disagree there is a point where defenders advantage can be too much...

Because you can move out of Dark Swarm...? Dark Swarm would force Terran to unsiege, move units back, re-position himself, and engage at different angles.

Fungal makes Terran stay still, take DPS, and die. Therefore, Terran is afraid to move forward.

See the difference?
