Zergtropolis? It's about the only terran map left.


How is a map that is 35% TvZ favored for Terran?


Because Terrans insist on charging forward on a SUPER long map with bio-tank or bio only. You can alternatively just sit back and build any comp you want. The metagame is far from figured out - sadly people really think it is.


I'll let you in on a secret of what happens when you try to play sky terran on this map

macro up for 20 minutes

big fight

zerg remaxes on 15 ultralisks

you lose

You are joking right?

That is why it doesn't work on OTHER maps. On this map there are small choke points so you stick planetaries there and it is ultralisk proof.


I say this from experience of both playing the map and watching many many pro games on it. a planetary will not hold off a remax of ultra ling for more than a few seconds once they reach your side of the map.


I've seen enough games played properly on this map to know you CAN hold. Also, what comp are you building where you are defensive to a re-max on Ultras. The comp I've seen used had enough remaining BC's to kill Ultras as they cross the map. *shrug*

I'm surprised Polt's allin-ish TvZ play still works given how frequently he does it.

It's mostly a race to get your remax on tanks/thors/marauders while you hope your building walls hold out.

BC's are good yes but they don't kill ultralisks fast enough to prevent them from wrecking everything on the ground first, not to mention they are slow and cannot fire until they decelerate.

HotS is on the 12th of March.

hahahahahahahhaha

seriously, it's going to take another year for the metagame to shake out properly. I don't think anyone has a clue what to do with the widow mine yet.


By comparison no one still has a clue what to do with most units in WoL. I've watched the unit control and usage of nearly every unit increase drastically over the last year. People really believe the pros have the game completely figured out - in six years we'll laugh at how bad we all were at this game. That said, I can't wait to see people abuse the hell out of the new units. The HotS invitationals and tourneys have been a blast.

It's stupid to say that the pros have the game completely figured out, and I haven't really heard anyones ay that. Sure enough the metagame is very stagnant, but the game is still fairly fresh. Sorta.


Hmm, people around LR threads claim this all the time. I've seen so many posts lately (well, and since release) where people claim that "if a pro can't do it now it can't be done". Had one just like 3 days ago in fact.

Not looking good for Polt right now, his BFH are likely to be denied, and losing SCVs.
