This is not what I said, but go ahead and keep dismissing the points by bringing up this shitty argument.

I repeat myself; once we see a terran player beating a superior protoss players with mass raven then we can talk about imbalance.

Round 1 not looking great for foreigners.

Dear 2-0 Special
TY 2-0 Showtime

Games weren't particularly close.

Nah Showtime just lost because Ravens are broken otherwise he would've swept TY

Not to mention this only happens on a single map out of 7.

10 is enough to missile "one-shot" any army if you have enough energy saved up.

Showtime really stood no chance in that game, not sure why he invested so much into stalker/archons.

Stalkers are the only unit that can dodge raven missiles/has anti-air.
What else should he have produced? Air units are too slow.

The tempest approach didn't seem to bad until he lost his patience

Yeah you need just 10 to instabomb entire air army that naturaly clumps and can't split

Gumiho vs Special is huge.

If Special can't take down gumiho, I'd say no way he comes back from 0-2 when he has to face Maru, TY,

Honestly they should buff storm against air and parasitic bomb, then maybe this mass air shitshow would finally end.

Your units clump whenever they move and the missile is undodgeable. What pre-split are we talking about?

While I don't think Showtime played that perfectly, it looked kinda imba. Showtime definitely could have prevented TY from just expanding at the top like he wanted instead of just using his whole army to attack the PF where TY's whole army was at.

You know, moving your army into different directions so they don't all get hit by splash. Kinda like terran does vs storm and pbomb.

And he would have won without making a single one. He beat better protoss players with BC strats on harder maps than this.
