Tasteless and Wolf casting together for first time tomorrow, Wolf doesnt strike me as the analytical caster so 2 of the same type casters could go wrong as much I'd like it to work Seriously? Wolf is one of the best analytical casters out there. Listening to his solo casts, he does an amazing job of explaining why players are doing what they are doing, and (imo) he does an even better job of it than Artosis,
That's only when he's flying solo though. When he's teamed up with other people, he tends to cast a lot worse than he should.

why does artosis hate mvp? every prediction he made without interference by others = mvp loses
He does not hate him, there is just only room for one IM player god in his heart.

Well, I definatly wouldnt say hes as good as the top tier analytical casters like artosis and appollo.. I find wolf calls things wrong plenty. I guess thats pretty subjective though. He still belongs on a tier below them imo but well above tasteless that still seems to think muta/ling/bling is the ZvT norm :p

Are you serious? Even his solo casts are not great analysis. He doesn't have the build/metagame knowledge that Artosis does, because hes low masters and doesn't even play that much. I get that people are jumping off the artosis train onto the up and comers, and I like wolf a lot but people are seriously overestimating his analysis.

This example is ofc exaggerated but contains the basics about what people feel is the problem with TvP and I as a spectator (and a zerg) agree.. thats certinly what it looks like. His rant wasnt uninformed, his rant had simply nothing to do with winrates. His point remains true even with a 100% terran winrate.. if you agree or not is another thing but dont post statistics that is not relevant. Relevant statistics would be winrates based on periods in the game. Or rather winrates based on what supplies the engagements started.. 200v200 I doubt the stats looks nearly as good as that for terran... Im quite sure they pretty grim. TvP is broken.. it might be terran favoured as a whole, probably is looking at the stats but its still broken.. Just as ZvP lategame is broken being all about landing or not landing that one vortex. balanced a game can be without being good balance from either a competative or a spectating PoV! cheers!
Thank you very much for clarifying this for everyone. However, I don't think we're going to see a fix to this severe of a problem before HotS.
I really can't wait to see how warhounds/battle hellions tip the scales of lategame TvP... chargelot spam somewhat alleviated, and I think warhound missiles killing any colossus around (or stalkers, allowing vikings to freely kill colossus) will help fix the HT/Colossus vs. Terran dynamic. We'll see. I can't wait to see the crazyness that the first HotS season will be... Gonna be some sick imba strats on the scene.

ToD and MKP looking bad ass as they should. Nice

Why is mkp disproportionally larger than the rest? Is that an [un]subtle implication of an all-kill?

I have a feeling those units won't really change it very much. The battle hellion probably won't be used all that much simply because even with it being slightly harder to kill colossi will still be able to destroy them. Warhound might be useful but I'm not really sure yet.
