He killed around 12 mutas with just five 7 range phoenix

it's just absurd

edit: not trying to balance whine, but those phoenix decimated those mutas. They couldn't even escape due to faster phoenix speed + range.


What would be acceptable though? Phoenix seem pretty much designed to counter mutalisks, which they failed at in WoL. 5 Roaches counter 12 zealots pretty easily.


He should be thankful that Corsairs aren't around in SC2, those would decimate mutas even more.

Why is he keeping all his HTs in one ball, instead of leaving a few at each base for defense?

Nerchio is just asking to be stormed. That gets stormed once and everything dies. If people complain about balance if that happens im going to lament.

I would like it if they weren't a hard counter unit.

I would like it if both were viable against each other and the player with better micro / decision making wins.


The problem is muta's can attack ground without a special abilitiy, and can be produced faster. Phoenix have to overcome this advantage somehow.

I would expect a lot more later in the day, MLG had 20k for one of the qualifier matches.

One tempest to rule them all!
Maru and Serral are probably top 5.
