stop the damn balance whine

It never stops with the terrans. One game won by protoss and it's all tears and oh-my-gawd-sc-sucks-blizz-hates-terran

yeah cause that's not how every other race is right? since every single terran is the same while every single protoss player has the same mind and every single zerg has the same mind too right?

Yep. These terrans have been whining about TvP since years ago, even when pros say it's perfectly playable, and terran gets tons of strength in HotS. Basically, the terran fan favourites aren't allowed to lose, or else starcraft sucks. Protoss will mostly go like "ok.." when our pros lose because, let's face it, protoss pros dont normally win the gsl while zerg is zerg so yeah.



It all depends on the perspective.. I also heard a lot of protoss players complain how protoss can't harass and it is the weakest race and then they go for radical game suggestions because protoss is so weak.. Even Rain keeps mentioning terran is so strong in hots but apparently he is doing just fine since he also won the last OSL as far as I remember..

Did you really believe he will beat Rain? Bomber is - as much as I am a Terran fan - a very tricky pony with timings and play that can throw of players. Rain is as solid as it gets, and doesn't really get thrown off easily. While his weakness is being so chargelot heavy against mass medivac / bio style , scv pulls against him are not very worthy of anything besides in very low-economy games.

I feel a super greedy game would work out best for Bomber because his control is good so he can hit a timing which has storm, but not yet colossus so he can rule supreme with mass medivac +2/1 and lots of bio.

You do know who you are talking to, right? I will always believe in Bomber. I have believed every game. I will always do it.


At least not a fair weather fan t_T But believing and being reasonable are still two different things


Believing as hard as Wintex does in Bomber, for example, isn't always compatible with being reasonable. Same thing when I watch Life play (but then again that's worked out a fair number of times)

Isn't that the point of being a fan? Believing in your team/player even when everything is against you.

I thought being a fan was more about liking gameplay/the player and cheering for him, being unreasonable and unrealistic does not need to be a given.

I meant to say fanboy.

Being a fan is what you said.
Fanboying is ignoring everything and just cheering hardcore for your favorites.

imo

Just imagine, Rain wins this OSL. That would mean four consecutive protoss wins. (I know that it's over a long period of time, and even in two separate games, but still...)
first we make expand, then we defense it.

That was just bad decisionmaking.... land the stupid 3rd CC and plant a turret. Like a single DT stopped a 3rd base from going up for 5min. He can even do the same aggression anyway if he really wants, but he gets a free backup plan with a 3rd CC should it fail.


No way, he doesn't have the saturation to make a third count for anything. He was already stretching his defense too thin, keeping too much army in his main base; he couldn't have expanded the area where he needed to defend his economy without giving up his aggressive position against Rain as well.


from what i could see he wasnt keeping any army in his main base, just defending with rallys when needed. He could have outproduced rain if he landed his third and while working rain with his medivacs. Rain was on 1 base for some time with his third also getting sniped.


They showed Bomber leaving his main base mineral line with about 30 supply worth of Bio, that eventually met up with the rest of his forces outside of Rain's third. That bio had been there for a while. I'm telling you...he COULD NOT have defended against a Warp Prism coming in to warp in multiple zealots, he couldn't afford to drop a scan to destroy the DT waiting at his second expo, he had no way to stretch the defense at his home base.


I see, didnt realise he had that amount of supply there. I guess it makes sense. It was frustrating to see him doing all that damage and knowing he had a third but couldnt get more out of it. Im sure Bomber was frustrated as well after that game o_O

Look I agree that Rain played well but in what universe did he have good drop defense?


Rain only lost his main nexus,the nexus on his 3th, an upgrading forge, tons of units and some probes ! I call that a succesful def.

Ah, thanks for the answer. I didn't bother with GOM because I wanted to hear Chobra and didn't catch the first semi.

Also, Kim Carrier and GoRush are the Korean casters? That's pretty cool.

My thoughts exactly. People can't just admit a protoss player is just better. Rain is obviously better.

Stop making it sound like terran players are the only ones to balance whine.

Every single race has balance whiners, they're equally loud and they're equally ignorant. Best way to deal with them is ignore them.


Equally ignorant? The terran ones were painful when WoL was actually broken. Equally is complete nonsense. Especially with people shitting on Rain of all people.

meta-whining is painful and nonsense too yo

It depends. Bomber is of the caliber where he beats these players. He CAN. he is no darn foreigner. beating rain is in no way unrealistic. come on...

That was good drop defense?


Evidently good enough


rain usually has really good drop defence but he was quite terrible last game, to be fair its rly hard to deal with 4-5+ medi drops


And as someone already mentioned, star station is a bitch as P vs T with those drops


yes but he should have handled it much better after all the early game damage he dealt, once the drops hit he had a supply lead and ht's + charge(i believe)

I don't understand why Rain gets so much hate for being a "safe" macro orientated player, what's wrong with a bit of defence?


If everybody played like Rain it would be the most boring shit in the world. "I'm just going to defend and take another base" "Then I won't attack and will also take another base." Basically like a korean Thorzain/Hasuobs. The only reason we really see fights in rain games are when other people attack him. It's so boring to watch.

Rain always harasses with Warp Prisms, or do you just pick and choose what you remember? Remember the mech game play by Bomber? Bomber sits on 3 CCs all game while Rain runs with Psionic Storm drops all over the map. Rain plays safe, not boring. He picks fights where he has a clear advantage. That's called being a good player.

Rain playing extremely well doesn't invalidate Bomber's Law. Bomber's Law only requires people to be disappointed after expectations are made high, and that's exactly what happened with Supernova giving Rain such a hard time and Bomber 3-0ing First.

So Bombers Law is inevitable then (he's going to lose eventually).
I Protoss winner, could it be?

If protoss was OP like Terran and Zerg had their moments, you would had those dumbasses too.

And people called Life a patchzerg. Or mvp an all inner/one trick pony, etc...
