Ok Polt did a good run considering his current level, but it has to stop at some point.

It would have been an embarrassment if he got to the finals.

how much armor do 3 amor + plating ultralisks have?

8 i think


so basically 3+3 marines do

1 damage per shot (3+3 marines have 9 attack, right?) :/

not sure about marauders, but 2 attacks mean that there is a 16 reduction in attack as well


so basically bio does nothing to ultralisks

yes, marines don't do much, that's been established since the first day of beta

what else is new?


actually i think that in hots and before, ultras has less than 8 armor

even if they had 7 armor instead (which is only -1), suddenly marine dps vs ultras is doubled. that's hardly something you can neglect

e: i'm not whining >_< just trying to grasp some numbers that's all. literally the only unit stats i know are cost and the attack marines have. that's IT


Before a fully upgraded Ultralisk had 6 armor, same as fully upgraded Battlecruiser.
Which meant Marine shots did 3 damage. Marauders had a single attack which was 26 damage vs Armored, so 20 vs an Ultralisk.

so marauders used to do 10x the amount of damage to ultralisks before lotv. wow


I think you're forgetting the bonus vs armored, fully upgraded marauders do 8 + 5 twice against amoured units, so basically 10 dmg per attack (instead of 20) (edit : against ultra, I mean)

Actually marauders are still totally relevant against ultra, if you have enough space to kite...

not if zerg has fungals

there's a couple of answers there

Always funny that 4 years later teamliquid still act like everything is fine
Nothing has changed it seems

Pls stop balance whining

It's not balance whine it's design whining

it's the same in BW, if Terran decides to keep going bio vs 4 gas Zerg they will just die

both T and Z have lategame tools in LotV

Bio is the only thing viable in the matchup but once zerg has ultras 80% of your pop is useless, plus it's easy to survive till ultras as shown in various matches. That's shit design for you, like broodlord infestor was back in the days.
It's sc2 not BW what is that argument xD

of course you're balance whining, how can you possibly say you aren't


No not really. Ultras can be killed with the right tools. Right now, the transition is incredibly hard for terran. That's a design flaw imo, not balance necessarily.

what he's saying is that the game is over once you get ultras and it's very, very easy to get ultras, both of which are complete bullshit

I'm looking over marauder stats, I have no idea how they calculate damage

Base:
5 (+1) (x2) = 12

Bonus:
+5 vs Armored

So vs Armored it's:
5+6 (x2) = 22

With +3 it becomes:

So vs Armored it's:
5+3+6 (x2) = 28

Right?


The +1 is the damage bonus you get from upgrades.
Marauders do 5 damage, +5 against Armored, twice.
So vs a Roach with 0 upgrades they do 10 damage, then reduced by armor.
Upgrades only give +1 so +3 means its 8 damage, + 5 against armored, twice.
That is 13x2 = 26, like the old damage but on two attacks.
Ultra has 8 armor and gets hit twice, so its 26 - 16 = 10 damage from a +3 Marauder per volley.
Playing Terran is like flying down a MULE drop in a marine suit, firing a Gauss Rifle

Why are the other casters shitting on Nate so much? It's kind of disgusting they bring up Nate's stream when Nate's casting in official capacity is very balanced. Maybe they're threatened by Nate's level of play-by-play casting ability.

to be fair, it's hard not to complain about ultras
