I've thrown away that game. Shouldn't have taken the fight on the highground without my vipers.

So, zerg could answer by going mutalisks and harass the hell out of the greedy terran. Roaches should be one of the options not the only one i feel ![]() Well you can probably go 8 queens too. With transfuse you can probably deal with mines/reapers/hellions. | ||

His point is that you shouldn't make claims without evidence that contribute literally nothing to anything aside from pissing people off. Take Yoda's opening vs Ret as evidence. Maybe stop arguing with me just because you feel like it. As evidence of what? That certain strategies can win games? Once again, thanks for that nugget of wisdom. Terran has ways to beat zerg. Amazing. As evidence that some openings and overall playstyles are extremely strong vs current standard zerg? Which was my point in the first place. It will win in the hands of good players. Whether or not that's a balance issue or zerg just has to play differently remains to be explored. You're really not reading this too well. If you wanna call it overpowered, just say its overpowered. No need for this circling around the issue, "oh I could beat zerg by doing this and that with terran". I'm reading it all too well, Its just that thinly veiled balance whining annoys me. Lol. I'm protoss, I don't really care about TvZ balance. It's too strong vs current standard zerg. That's what I'm saying. That and nothing else. You're a terrible reader. If you don't care about the balance, why are you here commenting? You're saying its too strong, you're saying its overpowered, you are balance whining. Stop with this bullshit about "terrible readers", there is nothing subtle about your posts. Rofl. Go back and read what I said. It's too strong vs current standard zerg for that current standard to be viable. There might be other standard-capable openings for zerg. Putting it into the most simple words for you so you don't have to think: Current terran openings > current standard zerg opening. Current zerg opening might have to be changed by zerg. How the flying f- is that balance whine. Also, I don't have to deeply care about balance in a matchup to realize when something beats something. | ||

I wonder what this reminds me of. Some unit... that completely makes it safe to go up to 3 bases very easily... In all seriousness though, Widow Mines are a little over strong, but not by a crazy amount. I must be forgetting a unit though, because it doesn't seem like Terran really got anything to replace the Warhound... its just WoL Terran with an OP ground+air splash damage unit. | ||

Terrans have their turrets and marines to defend from mutas, so they don't necessarily need widow mines too. | ||

Reminds me of 2010 and early 2011 LR threads...Zerg winning = zerg hate, zerg losing = zerg hate. Seems like these threads have just become zerg bashing sprees over the last 6 mos. Terran hate back then has never been on the same level as zerg hate now. Although the Terran domination back then was way bigger then the Zerg one ever was. How was zerg domination lower than terran's one? Did you see foreign terrans beating top koreans zergs repeateadly? Zerg got the most GSL wins and some absurd cash winning in 2012, it's not even funny. To be honest though we don't have many "good" foreign terrans at the top level of play :p And why is that? Are terrans inherently harder for foreigners to play? Terran is harder to play at a pro level period. was the same in bw, same in sc2 Why do people still play terran then i wonder ? More easy to play other races after all in both games. IN the hands a pro like MVP, terran is extremely effective. Terran at the upmost level has a extremely high skill ceiling/reward. | ||

Antiga is a hard map with roach/hydra just because of the weakness vs drops and the strength of bio/tank. I don't know shit, but I saw HyuN bring spore crawlers to feed the vipers. If Stephano had done that then he wouldn't have to bring them back home, and perhaps continue to hold the middle with his army intact. | ||
