What will protect the nuking ghost? The point is that is easy to "snipe" that ghost.

Major seiges up JR's center base but gets all his hellions fungalled to death and has lost most of his army. JR has countered taking out Major's 4th.

This seems more suited for evidence in your upcoming patents law suit.

no lategame transitions at all, no ghosts, no thors, no ravens... ravens... ghosts... lol... Ravens are good in TvZ. PDD or Hunter Seeker does a lot against the corrupters making your vikings able to deal with them and the broodlords. the only thing ravens are good at in tvz is getting fungal'd and making you instalose. Only if you're an idiot with them. Keep them behind your tanks, pull your vikings back and they're damned useful. Just because they look like they get fungalled and lead to your loss doesn't make them a bad unit. It's the players being really stupid. Yeah he's right. Ravens are so good in TvZ when you micro your marines/marauders around perfectly, keep your vikings from getting clumped, siege at perfect moments, and move around your ravens above the tanks while stimming, sieging, focus firing, and casting PDD + seeker missile against the impossible to play with zerg army of multitasking goodness. Why would you need to micro your marine marauder around? I'm not seeing why you'd ever want to when you have your tank line set up to deal with the infestors. If you move any bio forward it's going to get fungaled and you'll die and seriously I'm a high platinum/diamond Terran and I have 0 issues splitting vikings. It's almost impossible not to. just have them set into 3 groups over seperate hotkeys and attack from different angles. Ahhh, High Plat. Awesome. So how many hotkeys we talking, 1 for bio, 1 for tanks, 1 for ghosts and like 4 for you air units? Okay.. Cool.
it bothers me when other races theory craft about how terran should be played at a grandmaster+ level. if ravens actually worked and didnt die to fungal every time someone made them, they would be used far more often.

Namely that having sieged up tanks is terrible against Broodlords because the splash does a ton of damage to your bio when the broodlings come in? ... Move behind your tanks? I play Mech but seriously it's not that difficult. The broodlords broodlings will not do anything as they get killed as soon as they land (this is with hellions, I'm sure mm can do it to) and if you do that he'll never be able to walk his infestors in meaning you can snipe the broodlords with your spread out vikings and if the corrupters clump you PDD or Hunter Seeker them.
yea this shows how much you know of tvz... your tanks splash your units isntantly the moment the broodlings land.

So stream not working? Or is it working fine but this is the NBC live broadcast?

How is it easy to snipe a cloaked ghost being protected by a maxed terran army?

It really is dude. That's why we are still seeing 99.999999% of terrans losing those lategame engagements. It's because the control required for the units is still so hard....

What are you talking about? I've played Terran since Broodwar and I've never even touched the other races. Ok I may only be high platinum but it doesn't take a genius to see ravens only get fucked by fungals if you're stupid enough to group them into one massive ball.

DJR pushes MajOrs 4th and forces a lift, Major has a lot of CCsn but he can't take a fourth. Major sat at 150 supply and struggling to build more. DJR is starting to bank huge.
Ravens on the way, but it doesn't look like it will matter. Roach ling infestor ultra is killing Majors army again.
And major ggs.

God it pisses me off. I have a hotkey setup specifically to give 4 useable army control groups when I play Terran and it is beyond difficult to pull off these kind of things.
At least when I'm playing PvT, and losing or really working up a sweat I KNOW that my Terran opponent's hands are probably about to fall off, the discrepancy between Zerg and Terran army control is beyond a joke now.
