Nearly all of the best Protoss professionals are ex-BW players who don't panic when they see Mech being used, from what I've experienced most of Mech's viability at the levels below that vs Protoss comes from just a lack of experience Protoss players have against it. It's viable. It's just there is no reason to use mech over bio, just like pre widow mine nerf and combine upgrade buff in tvz. Bio is just better in most cases. But it certainly can work We saw supernova winning with mech so at least it worked at pro level occasionally | ||

But it certainly can work We saw supernova winning with mech so at least it worked at pro level occasionally If I told you a strategy was successful let's say.... 3 out of 25 times (and that's being generous) would you consider it viable? It's not viable. It's not that Bio is better (which it is) Mech just has way too many weaknesses a good Protoss can exploit while having so few strengths to make it worth using. The few times we've seen it employed successfully at the pro-Level it has been in timing attack all ins, most of which are only successful due to significant Hellion or Widow Mine damage done due to poor preparation or scouting from the Protoss. That's not viability, that's fluke wins. | ||

Which is just bad. | ||

I don't think he'll win vs Classic simply because his creativity just isn't anywhere near as valuable in TvP as it is in TvZ but it's good to see him not go last in this group. | ||
