Remember how annoying Protoss was during the "sad zealot" days? That's Terran now, but worse.

Also Ryung didn't have anywhere near enough vikings for the colossus count, (even more so considering he was behind in upgrades).


How are you supposed to be ahead in upgrades vs protoss? Unless he opts not to get them or you luckily snipe his forge ;\ Terran can only hope to be even or maybe ahead on the first up or so.


You're not so you have to get more vikings instead.
Seems like protoss can't win a single game without people claiming it was imbalance. Ryung was facing, (I believe) a 5 colossus army with something like 11 vikings...that's just not enough.

You suggest terrans have to build 3 vikings for every colossus then? Do you realize, that's 450 min and 225 gas worth of units to counter 300 min/200 gas of units, and even then terrans are in disadvantage, because while vikings are killing colossi, they are killing terran ground army.


How would that not be fair? 450/225 (3 vikings) > 300/200 (1 colossus) < 300/150 (2 vikings), that's just comon sense? actually 1 viking already owns a colosus.... it just takes longer and he probably gets taken down too fast by stalkers

Single Barracks into expansion for Polt on the high ground.

Gateway-Gas-Cybercor for Vines.
Two more Barracks added on.

I thought balance whine was not allowed in LR threads? Oh yeah this is a Sc2 LR thread, carry on D:.


It's not supposed to be allowed. But apparently protoss isn't allowed to win a single PvT and if they do it's an outrage. Even if it's one of the worse TvPers in GSL losing.


What does that have to do with anything O.o Regardless of his past TvP performance, the situation in that game was pretty clear.


Better terrans like Polt and MKP could have harassed better like they're supposed to do. Ryung's drop play was not very sophisticated- he sent the two dropships without really harassing the front. Just watch how Polt does it- it's so much better. Feinting until he has a unit advantage either at the front or back and doing tons of damage and then riding that advantage to finish the game before protoss has their ideal composition. Don't tell me it's impossible because I've seen it plenty of times. Of course the map isn't easy but that doesn't mean it's impossible. And anyway, didn't you say you were going to stop whining about the match up after that series between MVP and Parting?

I really want Polt to go through, but it seems unlikely that he will beat Vines, his TvP isn't as unstoppable as it was a month ago.

But DayBreak so still I think Vines winning here would a great performance.

Both zerg and Protoss had serious whine days. "Ultras into lose" and "Sad zealot" comes to mind.

You mean the same way zergs have to do that with corrupters, and have done so for the last 2 years, AND corrupters can't land to assist in the battle immediately after??

It's not like they can immediately morph into broodlords or anything slightly related, meh assault mode, it's funny how people talk about it when it's only useful sometimes in TvT.
So... what that make you? Good? You're not good. You just know how to hide, how to lie

Polt drops the main!

What do you mean by "the same way as zergs"? Last time i checked terrans didn't have ability to produce 15-20 vikings at once, after building single starport. And even then, what does it have to do with how terrans deals with collossi, you do know terrans and zergs are different races?
