I thought the answer to BCs was to fall out of your chair laughing...


MVP himself claimed that an endgame 200/200 army with BCs and Ghosts is unbeateable in TvP (but then again he lost to Squirtle with that, arguably a mistake in control though).

Yea - this has been a long time coming. Terrans have been lazy in not working out more viable strats/builds/styles.

MMMVG is reactive - and most terrans don't scout enough to react correctly to build the right army composition to counter a protoss tech-switch (which Toss is able to do instantaneously once they set up their 3/4 bases + double robo etc. )




I still believe mech is the answer. Thors/siege tanks plus hellions to harass probe lines.

Now if only Blizz made tanks more like their BW counterparts....


Another protoss playing saying terran should go mech... no just no...

Tanks that are garbage compared to their BW counterparts and the absence of spider mines means mech is pretty much unviable as a standard composition. Sure, throw in a mech game to catch ur opponet off guard, but if it ever became standard, protoss will know that the lack of spider mines means that they can just either use blink stalkers and/or warp prisms to abuse mobility like hell whilst mass expanding (placing 2 cannons per base to prevent BFH hellions) and terran cant do shit.
MMMVG is the only answer till HoTs till shredders come out and give back terran "spider mines" like board control.


The shredder was removed in a semi recent HoTS update.

He also lost to it with 30 supply of Squirtles army sitting on an island doing nothing still because it hadnt been ferried back yet.

Feedback though.


I hope Thors get changed so that they either: Have less energy or have no energy whatsoever. They shouldn't be this useless.


Honestly the Thors are fine, they do plenty good with the right support.

Unfortunately players basically exclusively use Thors in TvP for mid game timing pushes where it's basically Thors + scvs + marines. Almost entirely countered by high templars.

At the end of the day, regardless of the terran composition (mech or bio), ghosts are almost essential to counter high templars. The main issue is just ghost control, it's lacking whilst HT control has become refined by many protoss players. Even Lynna's TvP mech guide uses ghosts past a certain point.

Seriously...a whine balance? After the Terran clumped his Vikings directly over Archons and Stalkers and then got himself jammed into a choke point against mass colossi?

He got outplayed and out-controllled. Simple as that.

I fail to see what control Puzzle showed there, and what was Sting supposed to do, my friend?You can't really expect him to kite with his bio and kite with the vikings at the same time compared to what puzzle had to do, right?


His control was better than Sting's because he didn't have his Colossi standing on top of the Marines and didn't have his Archons at the back; which is basically the Protoss equivalent of what Sting was doing.

And what was Sting supposed to do? Well not derping his entire Viking force directly over Archons, attack from the side or something, and not standing in a choke point would be a good start. I'm pretty sure even I could manage that and I'm a Gold scrub.
Kid trying to judge a pro terran play out of gold league playing protoss, skipping that.


I have eyes, kid. And a working brain.

If sitting Vikings on top of Archons is seriously "pro terran play" nowadays then no wonder people keep dying to Protoss. Here's a tip: don't do it and you won't lose them all instantly.

As much as I like and think that BCs are underrated... saying feedback isn't effective against BCs..?
