Blizzard really needs to take care of the map pool better. The blink play renders it so useful thanks to these maps not because toss is op. There are other issues with the maps as well like the unbalanced gas mining

Most mirrors do unfortunately. It's small comfort, maybe, if you are watching it, but at least it's not a ZvZ.

I'd rather watch a ZvZ.

Probably not! The Protoss hate is more than the T and Z hate ever was. It's literally every time a Protoss wins now.

Nah I think it is pretty even with the Broodlord infestor hate. You just think it's more because you like protoss.

Well, Blink all-in is really a build I don't understand.

I don't want to make whine balance. I just don't know what I should do against it.

sensor tower.


Not sure if trolling or serious.


I just sigh at people that keep suggesting it.

It's always non-terran players that don't seem to understand how expensive Sensor Towers are.


TY used CC first to get that sensor tower. Which was the most important point.


Sure that works on occasion but you run into a different problem, you're using a very unsafe build in order to counter blindly only one of the potential all ins Protoss can throw at you.

It isn't a solution that can be adopted for standard play.


I know, I'm basically just adopting Parting's WoL mentality. If you can't beat BL/Infestor then just gamble nexus first every game into Soul Train.

Basically if there is no real good answer, its better to gamble than to play into your opponents hand.


Well the even simpler alternative then is to just adopt the Terran WoL mentality and just 2 rax every game.

Well i'll be tuning in to the finals tomorrow love me some PvP between sOs and herO. Can't wait!

And once again, I think TimeWarp should be made an upgrade at the Twilight Council. It's so strong early on and would nerf blink without messing with the blink micro of the cooldown. Because there is no other unit besides Phoenix that give Protoss the mobility of keeping up with medivacs and zerg stuff. But I could handle whatever at this point because I hate seeing games that end like that as well TimeWarp as an upgrade hope people will chant this to DK lol

Honest question, was the Starcraft 2 fanbase so hostile at the peaks of Terran and Zerg dominations? I wasn't watching back then, but people seem so angry and disgusted nowadays, just wondering if it was like this in the past.

Not trying to cause any issues here, legitimately wondering why Terran players don't get Stim earlier? Tech Lab and then a 100/100 upgrade doesn't seem very expensive?

Actually, most Terran builds vs Protoss get Stim as early as possible (that is, after a reaper, a reactor and the techlab for stim). Not much else you can do to have it earlier.


Getting stim earlier will just delay medivacs, and stim without medivacs vs blink is pretty useless unless the Protoss has an aneurysm.

Probably :o
But i can relate, i got almost as mad as most people here are over a soccer match this afternoon


see this is why i'm snarky vs soccer. because people get mad. over a game. when they're not the atheletes.


But..but.. im a fan!
No, i understand. I am watching from home mostly, this way i can get mad and noone else has to care
I hate those people going into the stadium and when their team looses they go and try to start a fight with the fans from the other team

Taeja should have had scvs repairing bunker in main but he still would have lost that bunker (albeit more cost effectively). Tanks + sensor tower is better vs blink I guess but obviously if the game goes longer the tradeoff is that medivacs would be much more useful.

You can't get Tanks with a 3 rax bio opening.


Possible to make only marines out of barracks then use gas for tanks ?

I dislike them both, but at this point just for variety's sake i prefer ZvZ.
