You need to get up a viking count that's high enough to do so much damage to a tempest in every volley that the shield batteries don't matter.

so would you horde the vikings in the back? i don't think you have enough time. i think you have to cancel air production and go 100% bio and try to bust it with mariners.

Nah, you won't see that IMO. If there will be one it is because one side defended a push/cheese and has an advantage. Which means the late game will be bad anyway


Unfortunately this is just the state of tvp right now.

There's still some chances for it left. Year Zero and King's Cove are so huge neither player might want to do overdo it in the early game.

You're wrong

Blizzard... fix this game or it will actually die. I can't believe this bs every single season. This is why we have 17k viewers for the biggest final of the year.

You can't outdamage shield batteries with unstimmed marines. Let alone the gateway units and the fact that the tempests can kite you.

I only have 2 wishes for this match. For the games to not be shit (which is the more important part) and for Classic to win.
