Top tier like mouz for example?

You're on. Only Axiom Acer has a chance.


They barely count as European :p

And to anyone thinking some Euro team could do well, didn't TL basically demolish foreign team leagues when Taeja still had wrists?

You can't be serious. Top Europeans can definitely beat low tier koreans like Tails/Shuttle/NSHoseo but there's not a chance in hell they could win 12 matches in proleague.


Hahaha poor NSH fans >.<

I wasn't asking why Terrans pull SCVs. I was asking why Protoss players don't, in situations where you lose your base, are oversaturated, and two bases down with a minor army advantage.

And it was answered already.


Far from satisfactory answer. It's extra DPS in a situation where you can't possibly recover economically. They don't obstruct zealots because Chargelots move faster.

Taeja actually demolished everything when he had wrists

Taeja all killed Root, HerO all killed mouz. All very recently.

Because melee units


Select once said he wanted terran to have a melee unit and MC responded to that statement with the fact that terran has SCVs. It was one of the better moments of that IPL player panel.

I do kind of wonder how terran would function with a proper melee unit added in. Is bio + mass zealot a valid thing in 2v2 games?

Lol
So you want probes to tank the damage. Which means you want them to be in the front. But you also want your zealots to do damage. How does that work exactly?
It actually lowers your DPS

I don't think so haha. You're underestimating the level of these players. A player like HerO straight up all-kills foreign teams for breakfast, he can't do that to Proleague teams.


Should I remind you about EG-TL players performance during DreamHack? Should I remind you about overall chances in bo1 format? Fanboys are so cute :D

I agree (I quoted the wrong comment). But the same is true for EGTL concerning Koreans.

No, when the zealots die, the probes continue to tank. The longer time spend with melee, the better for your ranged units.

Also great since you can storm your own probes. It just doesn't work. If it did, pros would do it.

Terran units are all ranged, so it makes sense to put a melee buffer in front of them, they can still all fire.
A good Protoss army has chargelots, like you said, so either the probes, or the zealots can't attack, so it's not really a plus to have probes in your army. And they will be wiped out by Terran's ranged units very very quickly.
Another example: you don't see SCV pulls (as a non-desperate move :D) past the early game in TvT, because it just doesn't work, they don't tank against anything, and die instantly anyway.

In the end, it all comes down to the fact that Terran is a pure ranged race, but not the other two.

Oh and SCVs have 5 more HP. Oh and they also block zealots.
Probes die faster, don't block your opponent's units (because no melee units for terran), instead block your own units.

I'm not even a fanboy man, I really don't care :D
But what european player do you honestly see competing better than HerO vs someone like Ty?
Maybe Jürgen, I'll give you that.
