There's one answer.

Mech has nothing to do with the counters of marines, wtf are you talking about. neither banelings nor Hts make mech unviable.

aoe vs marine is one of the most interesting interactions in the game, very skill full. and nowadays. roach ravager and adept based compositions are viable, without massive aoe.
toss needed forcefields regardless.
and the builds objectively have changed since 2010, you need to stop smoking so much weed my man

The funniest for me is that if Been shows up tomorrow, there will be that one guy who comes up and asks why Neeb is so overrated when he hasn't won any tournaments yet, as if he doesn't have series like this one in basically every tournament^^

It's amazing that adepts have made it is long without getting nerfed. At least make it so they can't cancel the shade.

In PvZ the zerg can make the situation spire out of control but protoss can adept to the situation.

honestly, like even the casters today, picking scarlett? are you mad? has neeb not tore through enough tournaments 3-0 massacres every which where enough times to get a prediction win? hahaha

also, lost it at Been.

There's one answer.

Because the pathing allows marines to stay very, very close to each other even while moving and thus have ridiculous dps/area. (flying healers make this even worse)
You could say that is part of the marine, but i would choose to say it's rather a pathing problem.

The reason why you can't mech in other match-ups than TvT is that if mech is strong, you can simply add marines to your mech and make it even stronger. You cannot keep marine at the level it is right now and have mech be strong at the same time, unless you have terrans sign some sort of Geneva convention that they won't use both at the same time.

Aoe vs marine is very skillful? Damn, I missed you explaining that in every thread about colossi a-clicking during all of WoL and HotS, where were you? On top of not being a very skillful interaction at all, it also forces a tech path of your opponent, which I hear is bad design when the protoss does it to other races.

No, toss didn't need forcefields regardless. Toss needed forcefields because otherwise you could just rally your marine-marauders in the other guys base on Lost Temple and freewin. Against zerg, you were walling off against that, not forcefielding.

The builds have objectively changed in that you added some fancy units into them. The overall goals and the backbone composition are the same.

If you want some of my weed, please come by, I'm always happy to share.

I know I might be bringing up old games here, not sure of whatever patches affected this match up but Snute beat Zest when Zest went Adept/Phoenix. Showtime beat Snute with the same build.

If your opponent doesn't know how to beat Adepts, that's on them. In this very tournament Scarlett held early Adept pressure from Puck with very little trouble and had the quickest 3-0 that I can remember.

At this point I'm not really sure if Adepts are the problem, I can never win with them. I think it comes down to the player and Neeb's PvZ is incredible.

If that were the case mech wouldn't be viable even in TvT.
