SC2 mech isn't even mech

Good point. Should have been a factory unit. So accustomed to mech being terrible that skyterran now qualifies as mech.

I mean it's not mech playstyle wise. It's either sitting in 1 place and balling up units or amoving with hellbat thor. Nothing of the positional play and careful planning that made BW mech pure sex.

edit: here's a baller blog by Falling explaining what mech is http://www.teamliquid.net/blogs/360325-in-defence-of-mech

Depending on MU. SC2 mech in TvT is pretty awesome. The best solution is to have mech and bio both viable. Too much bio in SC2 and too much mech in BW across all MUs.

mech is just as viable as bio, in TvT it's a bit more interesting to watch, but, according to every Terran I've ever seen, way easier to play and horrible to play against


Mech is far less viable than bio across all MUs in SC2.

aside from TvP, that's incorrect


It's correct. Mech is viable in TvZ and TvT but pure mech in both MU are less popular than bio or bio/tank. And Mech is crap in TvP.

"less popular" doesn't mean "less viable"

and yes, at very high level TvP mech is pretty bad


less popular means less viable. Player play what they have the best chances to win with.
If a playstyle isn't played as often as another one it is because the other one is superior.



Then why did it take Terrans so long to figure out that pre-nerf blue flame Hellions were so good?

Funnily enough it's a pretty solid mech map, but I doubt Polt would play mech even under the threat of a loaded gun.

Yeah that's why I don't like it for Polt. He said he'd rather retire than play mech.

I doubt he's willing to get himself killed over not playing mech <.<
