This is very frustrating. When Mvp and Taeja won in the late game (dealing fine with infestor/Brood) all I read was how good they were. Now Symbol doesn't get the same credit because all the Terrans want to balance whine to make excuses for their own bad play. So sad


Leenock destroyed Taeja, did you not watch Cloud Kingdom?

Taeja was probably lucky to win the series if Leenock didn't try some strange double Roach Warren build in the middle of a ro8 finals.

Didn't watch game four?

you need two ghosts and two ghost academies in order to use nukes, it's not a "lol are you trolling???" question, it won't destroy your chances against ultra transitions. just because taeja answered with a oneliner about a specific situation doesn't invalidate the idea

This isn't true and your argument is stupid. T was horribly op so they got nerfed. Just because the Terrans that had success when the game was unbalanced doesn't mean they are better to still be around when it is.

Even though I more or less agree with your opinion above, you shouldn't state things in such an antagonistic way. This is why internet arguments are never resolved.

Well it does make Ghosts pointless, what are you meant to do with them once Ultralisks are out when it takes 22 snipes to kill 1 Ultralisk?

My solution personally would be removing the Transfuse spell, it's complete utter bs running around with 6 queens with Full energy

When Leenock destroyed Taeja in game 1, (if I recalled correctly) Taeja had a significant supply advantage and did not make any noticeable mis-micro, with Taeja saying he didn't think he made any major mistake in that engagement.

When Taeja won game 4, Leenock had Taeja in a choke, and then donated ultras which allowed Taeja to walk under the BL army to destory him.

I disagree about just because the pros aren't using ghosts, they aren't viable. The game evolves over time. A few months ago we never saw any hellion banshee openings, but now they are almost standard in tvz. Mind you neither unit was buffed recently, the meta game just changed. I think if pros used their ghosts more wisely, we could see a counter to Bl/infester. Look at the way some Protoss use their HT, they transport then around in warp prisms, keep them isolated from their main army for storm flanks etc. These type of tactics would be even easier to pull off because ghosts can cloak. Now look at how successful the Protoss are doing in Korea lately. Terran need to start thinking of new tactics.

Funny, I could swear seeker missile speed was increased in a patch not too long ago. But +2 range on the 8 dps ground attack of Queens makes a bigger difference in Broodlord Infestor lategame am I right?

yah my apologies but it is so frustrating to see hard working pros like Symbol not get the credit they deserve after how well he played.

Because Terrans back in the beginning all got "Omg OP IMBA NERF" and they've been nerfed into the ground. The other two races have had dozens of buffs.

MVP still owns all these noobs though.

Why would they?

The balance for both TvZ in Korea/Foreigner are very close to 50% now .
The patch did good.

They just let the terran adapt after a period of time.

This is so sad for Prime that they are mainly a terran team, TvZ is so ridiculously hard that they lose to TSL -_-.

You obviously know a lot about the game... I wasn't talking about that patch.

Patch 1.4.0:

Raven: Seeker missile movement speed increased from 2.5 to 2.953.

But OMG, Terran has only been nerfed.
