I'm sorry but that's ridiculous. Well positioned Bunkers will have very little surface area for the Zealots to attack. Marines rip through them. First barely had any supply committed to that harassment. If you see the post game analysis right now it was like 3 Zealots that completely shut down mining at the 3rd. Alive's defense just wasn't up to par.

We have no supply-less defence that is actually worth getting. In lategame zealot/dt runbys or warpins don't care about the planetary, they still kill your economy or make you run. Not to mention you cannot get planetaries everywhere and if your economy runs, it can also go down. All other races have supply-less defence. you have less worker supply though (because of the mule) therefore you can hvae more units, so you can leave 4 rines in a bunker.
4 marines in a bunker don't defend shit in lategame. And we have less workers, because our army is neither cost nor supply efficient. We need to have as much mainarmy together as possible.

I really believe that a few hellbats, even with the nerf, would have been an interesting addition for Alive.

rines in a bunker do defend harassment quite well when you repair the bunker. "don't defend shit" is quite an exaggeration, don't you think so?

Sure, one Bunker can deal with 2-3 zeals, but not with 6+.

I find this very interesting. I also feel that it's very hard for terran to micro against the zealots, and they get so cost effective when the marine/marauder isn't kiting. If you stop focusing on your main army, you will get stormd.
I think this is one of the biggest problems in TvP. The fact that Terran can be vastly superior good micro while on the flip side be vastly inferior with bad micro, where as Zealots for instance requires next to zero micro.

Why these breaks? Is this on Swedish TV or Korean TV, or what?
