How? They explode so quickly.

Right now the only way to play TvP for me is to try and stay alive then get 4 or 5 Barracks before going third CC. I find if I go third CC with just two Barracks = lose.


the SCVs are faster than the nova


they accelerate rather slowly though and they stack up if you pull them. So you can get out of the way but you need instant or near-instant reaction and not even pros can consistently pull that off
Just ahead of time, know your addiction's not a crime. It's just a smaller part of who you want to become in the end.

Isnt the nova faster than a stimmed marine? Am I really so out of touch with Terran that I didn't realize SCVs were faster?


Maybe I am just thinking of SCVs getting the head start they usually get since the disruptor doesn't land among them but to the side, but it's typical that players split their workers before the nova, yes. It's absolutely not faster than a stim marine. Frigging hydras can split vs nova (sometimes at least )

They pull it off consistently enough for disruptors to be a fringe unit instead of a mainstay in Korea.

Okay, I admit I am too harsh to Polt. But I think ShoWTimE is jsut going to do what MaNa did and hit Polt with a massive Stalkers-Adepts-Sentries-Immortals timing as Polt is transitioning to his ranged Liberators

Polt is playing smart TvP.
The idea of having multiple squads of units rather than a single deathball of units is a "TYesque" play.

Having efficient small squads of units is the only advantage Terrans have over Protoss in LoTV.
In every other area they are equal or disadvantaged.
