I'm pretty sure a mech buff would be fine as long as it wasn't plain +thor damage or some shit. More creative and less arbitrary numbers could work.

The thing is, Terran doesn't need any buff right now. And making more strats viable is a pretty strong buff in itself, other races have to be ready for more stuff. It would probably have to come with some kind of nerf. I'm not sure they would be willing to fuck up Terran as it is now just to buff mech :D

Sadly Blizzards thinks mech boring and won't push for it.
At least we still have Strelok and Goody.

Yes if u siege some tanks and dont try to eat every storm there is.


Good luck against speedlots + dodging storms with tanks deployed.


Yeah, tons of saved hellbats from storms can't deal with speedlots, right?


Hellbats die to storm. They're like bioball. But without stim. Which makes them sit in storms for ages.


Are you trolling ? You just used a counter argument for ur own argument in same post which is one line...


I think you def. didn't really read my posts. Please do or stop that...

I'm pretty sure an Immortal nerf would solve everything. Just remove their hardened shield ability and change their name to (insert antonym of immortal).

Not going to lie, this Chobra/Whiplash combo is really doing it for me. They need to hook up more on SC2.

with the reduced cost of cloak i think he should have mixed in a few banshees to get some harasment done and force some stalkers. With the thors later on he can get rid of observers in the battle and then banshees can be very good.

Just nerf Hardened Shields.

That's all you'd need to do.

That opens earlier timings with Siege Tanks which in turn changes the dynamic of the match up because as it stands now unless you want your attack to fail horribly like Bomber's you can't attack a Protoss player without both Ghosts and Vikings backing your army up which means the Protoss gets a free three base economy which they can do any number of things with.

Nerfing Hardened Shields does nothing vs Zerg since you need Forcefields anyway to protect the Immortals from Roaches but it helps tremendously vs Thors and Siege Tanks since Hardened Shields blocks 80% and 66% damage respectively.

Wat. He ''blamed'' the immortals for Bomber losing, I said it was more the storms than the immortals.

Oh i said derpmortals because the shield hardcounter is rather silly, not because they are the only reason why mech doesn't work. Archon, storm and immortals are pretty much all you have to do against mech. Playing mech is like a protoss trying to win midgame with only gateway units because the terran army composition is very efficient against it.



It's funny how ghosts counter all units supposed to counter mech.


Think about that

Ghosts "counter" Tempests?

By the time you got ghosts your opponent is already pushing you, taking the whole map, and/or building airtoss.

It's pretty good, also really shows that Whiplash really isn't that bad if you stick him with somebody he has a good chemistry with.
