Grubby vs HasuObs. Grubby even managed to win that game. | ||

It can happen to anyone. However, it was pretty bad unit control all through the series. But I guess everything that isn't stutterstepping or splitting isn't micro in the eyes of Terrans like you. | ||

Not really. In PvP you can open with every tech route, you can fast expand, you can do crazy cheese like cannon rushes, proxy gates, you can proxy pretty much everything, you can go every tech route and cheese with it, you can go every tech route and macro with it. TvT is either bio/tank or mech. PvP can be pretty much everything. Void ray compositions, mass phoenix, chargelot/archon/immortal, colossus compositions are all viable albeit not equally effective at every stage of the game and against everything. And those are just general unit compositions, there's about a million ways to play around with them and to get there. | ||

I put the blame on you DLO for making an outlandish claim that works as trollbait. Second, bio/tank and mech cannot be compared to stargate or robo or twilight tech. When did you last see a protoss lategame army that does not consist of all of those? There might be a question whether to add stargate at all, but generally the idea is to try to get away for more teching without dying. This seems to be very different from the fundamental difference in style between bio, bio/tank and mech as those exclude each other. It does not make sense to say that the bio player teched up to mech. Or that the bio/tank player teched up to mech. That just does not happen. | ||

Also, you can go either bio, mech or sky terran at later stages at the game. While compositions in PvP gets pretty stale and similar. And with that last sentence, you just sound like a blind protoss fan with not much of TvT knowledge. Tbh TvT only has 1 tech route so comparing it to PvP is incorrect. Granted both of those match-ups are pretty good to watch. | ||

And with that last sentence, you just sound like a blind protoss fan with not much of TvT knowledge. This has nothing to do with anything and is your opinion only. There are only two general tech routes though, mech and bio. You can open starport but you'll have to transition into either one of them immediately after or you lose. You can open hellion drop or proxy something, same story. In PvP you can either transition out or stay on that tech. You can switch anytime you see an opportunity whereas going from one to the other in TvT is impossible. PvP feels a lot more flexible than TvT. | ||
