What's funny is that you could probably replace all instances of "Terran" with "Protoss" and it'd be like jumping into the past. Speaking of which: On August 13 2010 10:50 kajeus wrote: People will think terran is not overpowered if the evidence that they're not overpowered continues to accumulate!!! I expect that to be quite naive. I don't know if Terran is overpowered or not, but I can assure you evidence is far from the central issue, and if the idea remains popular, it will be believed regardless of the evidence. | ||

I don't see many zergs complain that their burrowed banelings are an instant-death invisible minefield to any terran ground either... Could it be that previously overpowered units being nerfed to a more or less balanced position instantly made most players worthless or is it that Terran players wised up and learned to be more effective ? My a-move is not winning the game anymore !! [insert whatever here]'s OP !!! | ||

And zerg doesn't complain about "instant-death invisible minefield to any terran ground" because it isn't true. | ||

Fire a test map and put whatever terran ground unit group aside from thors on top of 6 burrowed banelings. Select the banelings, hit X (i think) and watch a good size of the terran force disappear... | ||

Your comparing apples to oranges. | ||

As far as A-moving not working anymore, tell that to the thor/tank/helion combo. | ||

And compared to some past interviews, it seems like he's giving people more credit, even noting that he only has a "chance" to win it, and listing out players he could have trouble with (including the terran imba comments I guess). | ||

He never revealed his secret builds and techniques because world domination requires patience. | ||

both these players were terrans and then switched to zergs and now rage terran is OP. seriously if terran is so OP switch back to terran and quit making us players who are legitimate terrans for life feel guilty for playing our old race just becasue they have some good strengths. pretty sure terrans dominate sc BW nowadays too but oh no they wern't overpowered then. if your going to support the community support the WHOLE community and quit calling terrans talentless. if it was SOO imbalanced i'm pretty darn sure blizzard would have put some sort of fix in there. besides every tournament winner is either a protoss or a zerg so how's terran the easy race. and theres no more "theres no good terrans out there to prove they are OP" arguement cuz intotherainbow is a progamer and he didnt win the king of the beta did he. i've seen zerg crush terrans in numerous ways, things from mass ultralisks to baneling/muta to mass roach/broodlord and even some strategies involving hydralisks. | ||
