EPTPresumably he's implying HoTS hasn't been out long enough for any strat to be considered "extensively tested" at the highest levels of play.

If mech units work better with bio support, or only in certain phases of the game, then that's the way it is. You don't see Protoss players whining they want to play with 'pure gateway' or 'pure robo' or 'pure air' in every imaginable situation and matchup and that the game is somehow flawed if every unit composition isn't identically strong in every single situation. Mech with Ghosts works just fine vs Toss, and yet I see Terrans whining that using Ghosts means it's not 'pure mech' anymore which is a ridiculous statement to say the least. Because terran pays the most to commit to either units, due to upgrades and addons. | ||

The Terran players who are emotionally invested to whining in these threads are essentially refusing to use their race's units that absolutely do work because they like other units (whether it's visually or whatever) more. This is a competitive RTS game. Use whatever works and move on. mech just doesn't work vP except for 2b all in, since at least the bfh + emp nerf. If the bfh nerf has in some ways been reverted (hellbats) P got so many new tools to deal with it. It's just pointless if you're competitive to play mech vP if you don't intend to 2b all in. The guys that you accuse of being entitled indeed are, but just because they want mech vP to be viable, not because adding ghosts sucks or whatever. | ||

There have been hundreds of games from big and small tournament that we can conclude some things, like...bio is good in every MU. Enough of the OT stuff from me, don't want to angers the Gods...Mods Great tournament :D | ||

HoTs is so new that no strategy can have been tested extensively at the highest level of play. So by your definition there are no viable strategies at this point in time. | ||
