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.

Potential balance issues aside.... These speed medivacs make for good entertainment imo, Constant aggression and attacks multi prong attacks etc. much better to watch then turtle up death balls.

But it's just constant aggression in one direction...

Small zergling runbys, protoss warp ins from a proxy pylon or warp prism can put on counter pressure too. Hard to think of/do when under pressure but when Terran has so much in their drop ships it can be super effective.

Honestly, if Flash would practice only four hours a day living at home in NA, he'd still be better than all foreigners. Talent also plays a role and Korea has always had more competitive players and higher status for professional gamers. (not more players)


What's your point exactly? That the most talented player could play only 4 hours a day and be better than the best foreigners who play a lot (which we know they don't)?

Yeah, maybe, or maybe Flash is what he is because he works harder and plays more than everybody else (which we know he is).


My point is that people whine about 'foreigners need to practice more', but that's not it. Our players are less talented. Flash isn't good because he practices more than others, that's not why he won an OSL at age 15 (with a huge practice deficit compared to more experienced players). Life won a GSL and was still in school.


But...that is why Life won the GSL. He started practicing more seriously 3-4 months before GSL October, and he was playing the game since January 2011.

No, Life was already very good before, way better than any foreigner. And I kind of doubt he practiced more than his team mates, yet he was still better.

I don't understand this obsession TL has with denying that the top Koreans are simply more talented. Maybe some of them very obviously base their play on practice and mechanical ability, like Bomber, but for the best players that's only part of their skill. Life and Flash and Rain would still be better than any foreigner if they were to have moved to NA at the start of SC2 to play semi-professionally while studying.


He was losing to low-level foreigners prior to his GSTL all-kill against TL. He was garbage in ZvT and ZvP for a very long time and lost to literally every top-level Korean player from any race.

Because talent simply does not exist. No one ever got good at anything without effort and practice.

Because we don't have a single community figures that plays terran, except for qxc. And I'm not even sure if he counts as a community figures.

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


Isn't Gretorp Terran?

I think he switched races

I think creator's terrible terrible engagement was what mainly lost him the game for sure, but I'm still not particularly sure speeevacs should remain as is. That's just my biased opinion though

And its not like terran is destroying toss or zerg really, so all's good

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.


Thankyou Fionn, the voice of reason <3

Yeah medivacs seem too strong....


They dont look stronger than WoL. I've seen the exact same level of dismantling happen in WoL too by players like Polt.


I think people get worried when players don't instantly learn to hold off aggression. Creator was really good at defense in WoL and he dealt with several drops nicely this game as well - but Polt is pretty good at this marauder business.


Creator defended really well and then decided to throw the game with the worst possible engagement, losing all colossai without doing any damage.
After that it was Polt having the better and bigger army and Creator hadn't got enough to defend all of his bases. He also didn't/couldn't spend minerals on cannons.

Also before that one big engagement Creator had a huge supply-block. Before that supply-block supplies were even but then Creator went up to over 1k minerals and Polt was 20 supply ahead.
Just ahead of time, know your addiction's not a crime. It's just a smaller part of who you want to become in the end.

You may be a bit biased here....


I couldn't possibly see why.

Wait, you're not Fionn!

TL writer hivemind. They are all the same. and all bad at predictions


We need a writer bot

(I can't believe i missed the oppurtunity to make a 3k blog; oh well - I guess I'll wait for 4k)

My 3k post was pretty bad. So was my 2k for that matter. We should collaborate for 4k ^^

The fact that Terran can expand at his pleasure makes sure of that yeah.

Any race can expand whenever they want to, and feel safe, when they have the upper hand in a game.


Very true, though non can "zone" as well atm as Terran can and feel very save with it, atleast for the time being, sinds other races seem to struggle with that atm to be able to expand themselfs and to prefent terran from doing so.
