Insoleet you can't ask mech players to micro, because there is very little room to micro them, the tank play is entirely based on positional play, not micro.


Please, stop.

We havent even seem korean terrans use mech yet.

Actually we have.
It's not looking too good atm.

I hope not, marine marauder medivacs in every terran match-up (I guess with the occasional TvT mech?) would make TvX match-ups really boring for the viewers imo. All though multi-pronged drops are fast paced and action packed, it is getting a little old. I want me some funky mech/air deliciousness.

Guess you've never read a LR thread before, every game is indisputable proof that X is OP and Y is not viable at all.

You know that spreading tanks one by one is micro ?



Though by spreading tanks too thin, you make it easy to pick single groups of tanks off. Anyways, just time will tell whether mech is viable in TvZ. Though all the new things terran has gotten in HotS do favor bio more than mech (in part. because of the prominent medivac boost ability), in my opinion.

People are not basing their balance whine on the actual games. They have their opinions and are just using the games as an excuse to "get it out there."

Heromarine really screwed up that engagement to let JR get back in the game.


What did he do wrong in that engagement?


It came too late for a start, he had a huge window before that. But also he engaged somewhere which made it easy to blinding cloud his tanks out of the fight.


Well, regarding blinding cloud, as long as you have several vipers, you can always suicide dive to the tank line to blind them.


Not if you spread tanks.

Blinding cloud makes it much more like a BW engagement.


If you do BW like spreading your tank line will get run over at one spot and your bases will die. While they shoot a bit faster, the units they face got way faster and close in way quicker. Well and in HotS if you spread out the Viper pulls one tank in after the other.
Viper does the same thing to Mech what the 6 Range immortal does. A need for Ghosts. Viper is just way to hard conter against most Terran AoEs.

Theres so much room for improvement yet to be discovered.

Also, using your vikings to kill vipers before they cast their cloud is a smart move instead of just let them sitting there.


Mostly because most korean terrans agree that bio is better. And i didn't say HotS killed TvZ, i said "probably" as an opinion of mine, not a fact. Hell, i wasn't even whining about balance, just speaking thoughts out loud about the current match ups.

@Insoleet Meh. That tank micro happens before engagements, not while they are fighting. Guess what, if you push one sieged tank position there is no micro that you can do.

HoTs didn't kill TvZ mech at all. You ever watched any streams of GMs? TvZ mech is crushing zergs on the regular.

Sure, but that's still micro. Mech is not about microing with 400 Apm. It's just taking time to do right things.

Objectively speaking i can say if you watch GM zerg players you can see them crushing mech terran on a regular basis too. That's why it's bullshit, because it has zero value to the discussion.
