Besides, -1 Armor won't do much against a Immortal... 2% DMG-reduction rly is not a big deal and Marauders were so costeffective and with EMP still extremely good against Immortals. So whats the big deal with Immos not being nerfed? I mean: Protoss got nerfed quite a bit in the last few patches and Terran also got some major buffs. Zerg has gotten the first nerf that could change sth in a looong time, so I don't really see your point. They're both 1.5. Don't need a lair for Roach, and you don't need a Fac for Marauder. | ||

you dont get hydras vs mech, but vs bio : marauders kill hydras 9 shots rather than 10, marines kill hydras in 14 shots rather than 16 | ||

There would be tanks and torrs who would target one at a time. Talking about pure mech only siege tanks would form a chalange. I'm not sure if they could damage them enough for helions to kill them. Also helions wouldnt be able to micro mutch since they would be there to protect the stationary tank and slow thor | ||

Everyones complaining about roaches but recently i find that they dont really ever work. but to appease the masses sure give them what they wanted.... but hydra? how does that nerf make any sense without lowering the cost? Ever played PvZ? Those timing attacks are very hard to pull off and basically need the Zerg to play bad to work. If the Z has Units out on the Map backstabbing your Immortals and doesn't let half the Army trapped by forcefields, you'll be able to deflect this timing push. Also, Zerg is 1 expansion up on this point and is going to be far ahead economically, so it's only fair that it's a little bit hard to defend a 1-base-timing-attack that is basically an all-in. Also, even Plat-players aren't really that good at doing counterattacks and not every Zerg knows the timing of those timing-pushes, in fact, most Protoss don't know it either. ^^' Another point is, that this timing-push-army of the Protoss isn't very versatile: Immos are only worth the money against roaches and are worthless against Mutas, Zealots are obviously bad against Mutas too and then you also have to have the right number of sentrys. It's pretty delicate to have the right Unit-composition so that you don't loose to Mutas/hydras even if you did major DMG with the timing-attack. It's just sad that an allin is the only real option Protoss HAD in PvZ. Now I think you can go for a more versatile Unit-composition and also have a chance in the lategame with Hydra-nerf against a Zerg, that is economically ahead almost everytime in the mid-to lategame against Protoss. | ||

I'm a toss player not a terran player and I know almost nothing about terran and I don't even have beta yet so I'm gonna stop arguing about what I don't know about. | ||
