Let's go INno!
To all the haters: you deserve to witness many, many more Serral victories, worthy of the godlike player he is.

honestly, it really feels like extreme late-game terran mech requires some near-inhumane effort from zerg to beat.

however, it also feels like innovation is the only terran capable of consistently getting there (flash vs curious series was fxxking mental tho). other terrans just don't seem to be able to either get to that stage in the game, or can't execute in that late-game consistently. i'm thinking innovation is just a really amazing player (edit: who also seems to know what he wants to do i.e. go mech because it is such an appealing option vs zerg).

If you lose a professional game of sc2 having 8k 1k in the bank for 20 minutes there is something wrong.....

with your engagements and positioning...


if one player has no need to ever move across the map and can sit on all his static defense there is no way to engage for his opponent, one race having a way superior end game army is just terrible design.

Yea but whats stoping the zerg to have smart engagements and harras all over the map....he's got the bank,he's got the larva, he's got the creep spread.....etc...I know it's easier to write it , but fuck it, they are pro players they should know how to do this shit.....watch Rogue vs Bbyong.....that's how you should do it! use de lack of mobility of mech army...if you can spread that mech army all over the map you have more chances of winning!

Damn i'm so smart, in my little room , behind my keyboard!.....


overpowered doesnt mean unbeatable

i dont know if you are into hearthstone but there is a deck called patron warrior which is considered the best deck by every pro gamer for the last 4 months, it is obviously overpowered.

in tournaments it has a winrate of around 55-60% though. of course it can lose, a lot actually, but it is still overpowered

I'm not familiar with that game, but a win rate of 55-60% for that deck doesn't mean it's a bad design, ...quite the opposit.

that doesn't happen if the Z is patient and doesn't overextend off creep.

Stop the mech before it's too late like stop BL infestor before it happened? It's just one match up instead of 2 (late game ZvZ's were hilarious then btw) but it's reaching same levels of unfairness. It's ok/ unavoidable for late game armies to be unequal in strength but not too much pls

Unfortunately in SC2 its always "stop the player before he got his Composition".
Lategame TvP -> Pull tha boyz
TvZ -> if not possible to do drone damage, Zerg outmacros u -> stop that before he rolls over you.
TvZ-> mass muta ball in midgame -> if it ever comes to the point the zerg has 20+ Mutas and the rest of the armies are even, you end up running around chasing Mutas, that are faster then your stimmed marines... no chance.
ZvP -> try to kill before the toss has Storm+Colossi+ forcefields
...
I dunno for Toss vs X, I don't play it.

ZvP lategame is fine and you're exaggerating a lot about tvz.

It's not a black and white thing (most things aren't). BL infestor was removed for a reason.

There is a reason that explains why bio-centric players such as Fanta are playing mech right now: bio is 10 times harder, you pay every mistake by losing the game and the top ZvTer are almost never losing to bio. Look at soO or curious game and which style they are winning and losing against
Zest fanboy.
