It's really amazing to see you making excuses for a player you like, haha


He's not entirely wrong. Between Oracles, Blink, mine drops, Hellions, into multiple-drop fest versus Colossus defense into mass Storm + LAZORS... TvP is a matchup that turns on moments of only seconds to secure either a win or a massive lead. It's very different from TvZ or TvT for instance, where parade push siege battles can go on for minutes at a time and the constant positional tug of war of tank armies take both lots of time and patience.

I am not even saying he is wrong, but it still amuses me

Well, I'm glad that you admit I'm right. Concession accepted.

It's just that if you don't do something cheesy to put the Terran on the back foot, or to kill a bunch of SCVs early, Terran is extremely strong in the mid-game against Protoss.

And Protoss is extremely strong in the late-game against Terran if the Terran doesn't get a lot of damage in.

Did you watch MMA vs PartinG? Did you see what happens when all the drops get shut down? Dead Terran.


MMA played awfully, not even close to what we just saw.
I bet Fanta with this style would defeat PartinG too, unless Parting would so some early aggression. No other way to survive as protoss.

PartinG defended flawlessly compared to Rain tho.


PartinG also didn't play every game from behind

PartinG would never lose to proxy 2-rax because he would scout the proxy with the probe he uses to proxy the Terran <.<.


And then BM Pylon wall the Terran's mineral line so he can't leave.

Anyone else think Maynarde is like a ridiculous Australian version of TotalBiscuit? They're both Terran, too!

Same can be said for oracles. I can't wait for the rolling ball of doom in lotv too.

Totally agree though.

It's how players show off their skills.

This map for Tvz/Pvz is terrible. One of the worst, if not the worst map against Zerg I have ever seen
