Whyyyyy do Terrans attack up the ramp when there's a perfectly exposed 3rd?

I'm no TvP expert, but presumably it's because the third is not really important in a situation where you pull the boys, and it's all about trying to kill Protoss as quickly as possible. Time is not on your side once you've pulled SCVs.

Bbyong should of taken advantage of his early CC and nice army lead in mid game, splitting and dropping Zest on a map that's actually very good to drop on

Because if you don't kill the protoss army you lose the game. Giving them more time to make units/get upgrades makes the attack less likely to work.

never gonna kill the army attacking up the ramp kill the third and draw the army towards you to get better positioning

Why do Terrans still pull SCVs against Toss? I mean, your SCVs absorb one volley from the Colossus. It's never worth it. Why do they do it?

That one volley allows the Terran bio to deal a lot more damage before their death.

Really should have watched Hack's game in SPL last week. Lategame TvP is still doable, just everyone got so enamoured with SCV pulls that they're blind to anything else beyond 20:00.


Exactly that was a great game that Hack played. SCV pull is pretty much just a coin flip, toss has gotten pretty good at holding it.

And with all of the Terran and Zerg lineup, we get the most unexpected matchup with the most unexpected player

Because it raises their chances a little bit, and the other option is to play a lategame that is very difficult against a competent protoss.

is killing the third and pulling back actually that bad?
you already have all the tech you need for the late game and the protoss is crippeld until his third is rebuild
