As usual, don't player bash, don't flame, and don't balance whine. Failure to heed this warning will have consequences.

Maybe the Raven buff will help Terran out late game after all

Meh, it's just a speed buff.


Speed buff only helps a tiny amount, but I agree. It's meh and doesn't address the issue. Ravens are basically floating detectors until they eventually get enough energy to cast a missle. Makes their relative cost (not even including upgrades), hardly worth enough unless the Terran is very rich on a macro map like Atlantis or Metro. Try pulling this on possibly a smaller map like Ohana or Daybreak, probably not as easy.

Mmm. But it has been seen that proper amount of ravens and vikings obliterate any air flock. It usually comes down to micro.


The proper amount of raven viking takes almost as much time as the proper amount of Carrier with a mothership and storm/feedback support (if you add the energy building). It's good when you get the time or the map is in your favor, but it can kill you too.

Atlantis spaceship into Zergopolis?

Lol this map pool


To be fair, the style MVP is playing does actually fit very well into Metropolis. Mapsplit with planetary and lots of air , late-game focus. I think MVP would struggle a lot more on smaller maps.

Why in the world did Nerchio make 6 lings?



You can't punish first FE with a six pool. Roach timing push would had better chances, specially if MVP would be going mech.

I can confirm your confirmation.

Also the internet is horrible (at least in tons of areas) and we have no actual summers in the north. tt.


Definitely true. I'm watching on my shitty, expensive internet while it's pissing down outside.

Mvp vs. Nerchio Game 4:

Metropolis, Mvp mid left, Nerchio top mid.

3:00- Mvp opens CC first and then barracks at ramp. Nerchio opens hatchery first and then pool.


5:00- Double barracks for Mvp. 6 lings out for Nerchio, some marines out for Mvp. 3rd CC in main going down.


7:00- Double gas for both players now. Nerchio has 4 queens and some lings, so the marine pressure is easily thwarted. Nerchio takes his other two gases now.

I hope people finally realize that QXC balance whines too much for a guy who simply doesn't have the skills to win tournaments.


This match has nothing to do with Balance.,

This is MVP. You are watching one of the Best plauers in the world

And that is the only place where balance should matter. and so far, it seems balanced.


Not exactly because what he can do 99.99% of players cannot. Balance can't even be generalized from the best player in the world.

Byun and Taeja do pretty well too. Supernova aswell. 99.99% can't seem to beat x race? don't care. as long as that 00.01% are code S level players. I'm satisfied with balance.
