Yeah i am sure that mech sucking donkeyballs has nothing to do with that. Mech sucks donkeyballs because it's never been buffed thanks to bio being the go to choice for anyone Korean. There's been and will never be any reason for blizzard to even look at mech since a buff to anything mech is just a huge buff to bio. Hellbats and Mines were put in the game to help mech and they get used with bio more ffs. >_> Swarm Hosts killed mech ^^
Vipers more so actually imo but Swarm Hosts were also a big blow.
Basically EVERY Protoss and Zerg addition in HoTS hurt Mech more than it hurt Bio. Even the Oracle.
Blizz took what was already a weak style in WoL and nerfed it with their new Zerg and Protoss units, and then buffed Bio more than Mech with the Helbat and Widow Mine.

Terrans don't have a choice. Mech isn't a viable alternative for Terrans that even wanted to play something else. I'd kill to see Tanks become the standard again instead of Mines. In fact, I'd love to see Tanks in every matchup... I love Tanks, okay? >.> Never going to happen. Mines even if they were nerfed are just designed in such a way that they overlap and surprass the role of Siege Tanks in the match up. As long as the widow mine exists, Marine/Tank in TvZ is never coming back.
Yeah... I know. :/ Makes me sad, but hey, I guess this is what Blizzard wants. May not be to my tastes but at least I can enjoy TvP when it becomes a battle of Storm flanks. :D

Neither did. Mech is just bad at the highest level it has no benefits because bio is so damn good. When you look at the game overall, mech is supposed to be stronger and more cost efficient than bio due to it's expense and lack of mobility, but laughably bio is more cost efficient.

If roach/hydra becomes standard we will see it come back.
But how to get that working without gutting speedivacs is beyond me.
