Medivac speed seriously. Have 4 Stalkers in place? No problem I'll just speed by and continue to drop T_T


Grubby should have anticipated that and had defense in the main. It was so low that a couple more Stalker shots or a Photon Overcharge would have cleaned it up no problem.

Yes a drop should cost 6 stalkers to stop in different layers of your base? Lol, talk about a good risk v reward for Terran.

A MS Core.



cannons, units in place, mothership core, warp ins and the nexus cannon

I think medivac speed is fine, give it awhile and im sure we'll go back to drops being almost completely ineffective like WoL towards the end

Yeah, Grubby made a lot of mistakes and MVP would've won either way and is the better player. But still medivac boost, I don't like it. It's just too strong imo.
Maru and Serral are probably top 5.

Blizzard wanted to have a viable stargate opening in PvT right ?

I'm sad if its still not possible

While I don't think Grubby lost because of balance reasons, I don't understand how HotS PvT and WoL PvT can both be considered balanced. It's pretty much the same except with massively buffed medivacs... Having one high health photon cannon isn't going to deter a drop.

People bashing Grubby for not using MSC overcharge forget how slow MSC is. It can't cover more than one base at a time

Love how the balance whine force is in full effect after a game where Grubby did an obvious mistake, not using the MSC.

How is terran supposed to harass without the boost since protoss players have planetary nexuses now?

Phoenix also just tickle Medivacs and are not very good at shutting down drops, especially with the new boost, until you have a decent number of them. You can't invest so much into a tech path that contributes so little to your main army.

Only way that's been hinted at working in HotS is phoenix/colossus. But it's not really an opening, more of an overall style. Opening stargate is bad vs terran. Has always been, will always be. Marines are too good vs protoss air.

Harstem was trying to talk about how Grubby had an opening made for a colossus all-in then QXC cuts him off and talks about MVP's multi prong harass =[ The game was already over from the early game because of Grubby's opening as Harstem tried to point out...

4 Blink Stalkers
5 Regular Stalkers
4 Regular Stalkers if spread out and you have better vision

It's not that absurd considering the contents of the medievac + the medievac was about the same.

you can actually cast it on a nexus from pretty far away, if he had it in a good spot between all his bases it would only take 4 or 5 seconds to nexus cannon on any of them.

Would've easily stopped the drop that has generated so much whining in this thread.
