HOTS comes out soon, and the whole meta-game is going to start anew, so .. I guess no real need to worry about any imbalance starting March or so. I am sure all the people playing SC2 do not want to wait until March. I don't really want to watch any more ZvZ. TvT was bad too. | ||

PartinG and HerO winning WCS , WCG, DHW kind of make it a little better for Protoss for now. If a Zerg had won those as well, I think we would have Protoss complaints as well. | ||

Nobody would actually have like the 30 or so you'd need to do that. Nice try though  Love your pretend theory crafting hahajust like your theorycraft the zerg would play standard against someone turtling for 15 minutes for an air army | ||

I'm not even sure there's a significant difference in skill between Violet and Polt. The problem is that composition is just impossible to beat cost-effectively w/o overexposing yourself to a big tech switch... | ||

Polt threw his first army away by not having his tanks sieged, and they weren't spread. Losing that many tanks when you're behind in upgrades instantly kills your ability to be aggressive. Despite that he still stayed in the middle and lost another army after. If he kept most of those tanks alive he could have rallied to the middle and gone for another push at the 4th, taken his own 4th and transitioned for the broodlords. | ||

Tiers have existed since the original Starcraft. Stuff you require hive to build is, by convention, tier three. A broodlord/infestor army is definitely tier 3, as there is nothing else higher up the tech path to work to. Terrans need to build a couple ghosts and EMP or snipe some infestors at least. | ||

Im not talking about like 12 ghosts here, 3-4 could nullify that initial wave of infestors. I don't see how thats impossible at that stage of the game. You know zerg is gonna be making Infestors. | ||
