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. |

Foreign Terrans are terrible No worse than foreign zergs. do people still argue this? terran is statistically and objectively the most difficult race for foreigners to play. it's not OP, or UP, it's just more difficult. can you even name five foreign terrans who could realistically compete in Code A?
that supports my argument. That's the reason foreign terrans struggled compared to foreign zergs , it's a far more demanding race to play.

Someone should do million dollar death poll for Minigun taking a game off Life Would you take it? I'm certainly not. Bly already killed me yesterday.
I live pretty dangerously and died from HongUn vs MC (I think? maybe another game around that time) like 2 years ago so I'd probably take it

Looking ahead, Last has a 6-8 overall proleague record with a 3-4 record against zerg. Possible upset here?

Yes. Yes they are actually Prove it
For their respective eras. Among foreign terrans I can only think of:
Lucifron, Jinro, Kas, Demuslim, and Kas as being good.
For Zerg even ignoring Stephano: Idra, Dimaga, Sen, Scarlett, Ret, and Xigua were all badasses
edit: oh yeah, how could I forget Nerchio. He's really good too.

I'm okay with Terran being OP because all the best match-ups are with Terran in it.
Yeah, I said it. Whoa I never knew we could call other races imba in LR threads + Show Spoiler +
A race is only OP to me if we have six straight months of the same race mirror match-up in major finals.

nah non-korean zergs can actually stand against koreans....or have a shot..foreign zerg/terrans are just fodder

It boggles my mind that you would put IdrA and Scarlett on that list but not Nerchio, it really really does.

Well Scarlett deserves to be on the list, but I agree with your point about Nerchio. He's good

instead of nerfing terran id say protoss could stand some slight buffing when it comes to buildtimes
i believe pheonix are the perfectly designed unit protoss already has to deal with medivacs. the cost/strength of phoenix, 150/100/2food gives you a pretty powerful unit to deal with drops and small marauding bio forces
imagine instead of every 2 stalkers (250/100) you had 1zealot and 1pheonix (250/100). think about it the pheonix are so much faster and superior and can actually get those darn medivacs
imagine if a protoss had 15 pheonix's spread out on the map to intercept drops and a strong ground army of collossi/storm/etc and when you see the terran moving in you can tell if its most of his army the pheonix are so fast they can respond and join the fight within 13 seconds while you retreat and drop down defensive storms for those 13 seconds.
pheonix IMO in that situation is much better than stalkers. Imagine you can have 30 stalkers OR 15 pheonix 15 zealot in your forces. Obviously the pheonix is more desire-able they can kill medivacs and even in that amount kill the drops themselves too
the problem is protoss as a race is just "so slow" right now... the COST of pheonix is good but its just the mechanics of protoss race where they are so forced into massing gateway units all game just to have a surviving chance..... it seems protoss ALREADY has the proper units to deal with this stuff with proper cost and balance and strength, its just the design of the race mechanics that makes it so difficult and i believe imo thats where the fixes should be addressed
I like the way you think, but with chrono a Phoenix builds insanely fast, faster than a Zealot even. And when it comes to balance. Blizzard shouldn't touch balance at all for at least two months. There will be some broken bullshit for a while here, but its better to have that then to change shit before players can figure things out.

I made an edit -_-. See there's so many better foreign zerg than terran I'm actually forgetting people

Afterburners are extremely good on maps like that. MAPS will matter more now. Thank god. Yeah the ability is not that OP on some maps but ones like cloud kingdom (or can you imagine antiga shipyard? lol) it's ridiculously strong on. like blink ? :D idk why toss doesn't open more stargate on this maps. phoenix really good vs medivacs :p, and oracle shut down mines pretty hard. You have to heavily, heavily invest in stalkers which is really dangerous versus Terran if you want to use Blink to defend.
I was talking about offensive blink play witch have being incredibly strong on this maps since ever :D
indeed defensive blink play vs T is questionable, but some players like MC doses it a lot, and MC nearly ever never dies to drop. So maybe it's not that bad. But imo we will see more stargate play in this MU. Btw free hallucinated phoenix pretty good too.
