The usual: Don't flame casters or players. Don't discuss balance in this or any LR thread. Don't call your fellow posters idiots. Be excited, happy and entertained. | ||

Remember how infestor broodlords was said to ruin TvZ even when they werent used? Consistensy is pretty good  | ||

I think the best answer is the same as always, good observer positioning and cannons/stalkers protecting key areas. I was seeing more Phoenix play in the GSTL and they did actually do very well at stopping the kind of heavy drop play that Polt was using. In the late game, the Phoenixes block viking shots that could've been killing Collosus and if the Vikings are focus firing Collosus then the Phoenixes are just extra dps vs the Vikings which isn't a bad thing. All in all they aren't a bad unit to have regardless of the situation. | ||

Actually, Fionn is right here. Creator had a bad engagement and that really decided the game. | ||

Right now, with Polt versus Creator (which is a generally even match up), Polt literally can fool around because Protoss Gateway (which is the backbone of the damn Protoss army) simply has no decent way of keeping up with those boosters. Drops are just way too strong right now and Blizzard has openly speculated it as well. This tournament simply proves that speculation. I will say though, watching Flash vs, Bly was probably the best couple of games (I sadly didn't see the whole match) I've seen yet. I also think Bomber vs. Goswser was a great series, mainly because it was simply loltastic. | ||

Which sucks, cause those casters have no idea and don't bother analyze the quarks and BO of terrans. Husky does the best job of all Oh get the fuck over yourselves. Painuser and Qxc are some of the most pigheadedly biased community figures around. The race was broken in WoL for significant periods of time (Gom TvT -> 1/1/1). Now you have a drop function that seems theoretically completely unsound and like as not is going to result in a all terran quarter and semi. This is like terran community members smiling through Swarm Season. Christ. It's people like you that bring down Bliz's design standards. Also It's nani complaining. Cmonnnnn. edit: Look to Rain or PartinG for a solution not Creator. If Rain can't compete then there's an issue otherwise like as not protosses aren't doing simple things like keeping mothership cores always on the field. | ||

Call me when he doesn't lose the first big battle of the game, fall behind economically, and then get beat by a dude who has a lead and has the luxury of trading units in his ferrarivacs. | ||

Day9's been throwing in Terran OP jokes since the beta, it's getting old considering the outclassing we've seen thus far has jack fucking shit to do with balance. Mb 1 or 2 games here or there but fuck, koreans vs foreigners can't be used for balance statistics. | ||
