Protoss in LotV doesn't deserve credit because we win with adepts instead of blink stalkers and colossi. That's like, completely different and abusive and bullshit and broken.

Also the SC2 community isn't particularly reasonable at times.


what argument is this? protoss has had bullshit things ever since this game started so now its fine when they keep on doing bs stuff?


Of course Protoss has more bullshit things than other races (shit i personally wrote The Great Book...), but the community can't tell the difference between a good read and an abusive game so all they are left with is flaming one third of the players.

Take the Dusk Towers game. Dear's read was "ok my all-in has done enough damage for me to transition, but not enough to end the game. He's forced into a very defensive position and a late stim, but he has 3CCs so he'll probably gear up for a push once his army stabilizes in a few minutes, before that i don't have much to fear. I can't catch up in both economy and upgrades, and if i invest in upgrades my economy is too shit to produce enough units, but i can definitely double expand safely, my main is mining out anyway so i need that 4th. I'll just skip forges, get a massive low tech army and crush him when he moves out to try to kill my 3rd or take his 4th", which is actually a pretty good read. The thread's comments were "lol adept allin into double expand lol protoss bullshit lol".

It's incredlby toxic, especially having to mod the forum and seeing balance whining essentially only thrown at one race.

Exactly this.

Well Toss players get to complain when Terran BS in form of Libs rolls out (another retarded unit that seems to be a band-aid fix). And i feel like often times Protoss gets to be aggressive with prism adepts while safely expanding behind thanks to the mothership core. This just seems to be against the basic concept that u need units to defend an expansion (or two). Like the terran definitely cannot leave their base as long as the prism is around so theyre bound to some reactive style while protoss can do whatever they want for the first 10 minutes. This is obviously exaggerated but the core of it somehow seems true to me.


Sure on the other hand terrans never expand behind medivacs or liberator harassment and zergs never expand behind muta harassment. Oh wait.

And at least regarding TL moderation, the whining about Zerg and Terran put together doesn't come remotely close to what Protoss get, despite the fact that Ultras consistently kill Terrans once they are out and that ZvT was actually very Terran favoured until recently (and could still be in Korea).
ModeratorProtoss all-ins are like a wok. You can throw whatever you want in there and it will turn out alright.

Protoss in LotV doesn't deserve credit because we win with adepts instead of blink stalkers and colossi. That's like, completely different and abusive and bullshit and broken.

Also the SC2 community isn't particularly reasonable at times.


what argument is this? protoss has had bullshit things ever since this game started so now its fine when they keep on doing bs stuff?


Of course Protoss has more bullshit things than other races (shit i personally wrote The Great Book...), but the community can't tell the difference between a good read and an abusive game so all they are left with is flaming one third of the players.

Take the Dusk Towers game. Dear's read was "ok my all-in has done enough damage for me to transition, but not enough to end the game. He's forced into a very defensive position and a late stim, but he has 3CCs so he'll probably gear up for a push once his army stabilizes in a few minutes, before that i don't have much to fear. I can't catch up in both economy and upgrades, and if i invest in upgrades my economy is too shit to produce enough units, but i can definitely double expand safely, my main is mining out anyway so i need that 4th. I'll just skip forges, get a massive low tech army and crush him when he moves out to try to kill my 3rd or take his 4th", which is actually a pretty good read. The thread's comments were "lol adept allin into double expand lol protoss bullshit lol".

It's incredlby toxic, especially having to mod the forum and seeing balance whining essentially only thrown at one race.

Exactly this.

a bit like that, not exactly that

people are really exaggerating this


We really aren't though.

yes you are


it's been true since before you even joined the site, no we aren't.

Well Toss players get to complain when Terran BS in form of Libs rolls out (another retarded unit that seems to be a band-aid fix). And i feel like often times Protoss gets to be aggressive with prism adepts while safely expanding behind thanks to the mothership core. This just seems to be against the basic concept that u need units to defend an expansion (or two). Like the terran definitely cannot leave their base as long as the prism is around so theyre bound to some reactive style while protoss can do whatever they want for the first 10 minutes. This is obviously exaggerated but the core of it somehow seems true to me.


Sure on the other hand terrans never expand behind medivacs or liberator harassment and zergs never expand behind muta harassment. Oh wait.

And at least regarding TL moderation, the whining about Zerg and Terran put together doesn't come remotely close to what Protoss get, despite the fact that Ultras consistently kill Terrans once they are out and that ZvT was actually very Terran favoured until recently (and could still be in Korea).



Well i already admitted that libs are equally dumb as some of the toss things and 8 armor Ultras are quite dumb as well imo. I dont think those wrongs make other wrongs right, they should all be fixed instead. And ye protoss got quite the history in sc2 making them stand out as a "special" race :D

I don't think the heart of the complaining is about the existence of powerful harassment tools for Protoss, but rather the perceived degree of ease with which their race handles many things: macro, early-game defense(especially), and late-game army control. Seeing, in a TvP, how Protoss presses F and clicks on 2 Pylons in their mineral line to destroy a Marines-Widow Mine drop, while an SCV line gets slaughtered by oracles if it is left with no units in position, is understandably infuriating, imo
