couldn't the move out with 5 marines situation qxc is talking about be used to force the zerg to make units they dont want to since they see it and have enough time to react?

No but he's saying that roach/bane all in won't be happening anytime soon if zerg is going 6 queen build.

Stephano goes 2 base roach almost every game and can put a ton of pressure on the terran and kill a lot of SCV's and then he just expands behind it.

Yes he does, that proves my point though. That is when he is not doing the 6 queen build. That's an aggressive approach and you can't go 6 queens into roach/bane all in. I know stephano does that, but again not the 6 queen build which is what terrans say is so strong.
When I think of something else, something will go here

They don't want to do it at first but if you kill those 5 marines there goes your pressure for 5+ minutes allowing the zerg to do whatever the fuck.

Don't get why Idra wants Terran to turtle up for the late game when Zerg's late game is even more brutal than its midgame.

TvZ conclusion : Blizzard succed in making the match up boring because the main attacking race of the game can't attack.

Ok but won't the zerg scout with OL's and see if the terran is going super heavy defense and then not attack and just take a third base? And then all those bunkers/depots etc. would be wasted money. It's not like you have to do a roach bane all in every game if you open gas. If he scouts 3 CC, go all in. If he scouts you 2 basing, take a 3rd base and defend it.

Terrans are doing okay in GSL and GSTL? Until this week's Code A they were getting owned lately.

They have queens bro, they'll make like 6 lings max because queens are just so good. 5 marines isn't very much pressure.

Nah but the past week they are starting to do better then they were even 2 weeks ago. A lot more terrans won tvz this week (and no matter how many terrans say zerg just sucked which is a typical response lol) then the past couple weeks.

lmao check terran win rate in GSTL. TvZ winrate in korea for may. also terrans have the highest representation out of 3 races for pro teams in korea so they are expected to have the highest representation in GSL given perfect balance between the 3 races.

Terrans are not doing ok in the GSTL by any stretch of the imagination Incontrol, and they are doing okay-ish in the GSL for a reason that has been repeated time and time again: GSL is about preparation, mindgames, learning about specific patterns of your opponents and abusing them, this has a great impact on the games which is a good thing, means that the game is not completely unsavable in the current meta.
So... what that make you? Good? You're not good. You just know how to hide, how to lie

"Terran do well in GSTL"

Race Stats (non-mirrors):
TvZ: 4-13 (23.5%) [ Games ]
ZvP: 17-14 (54.8%) [ Games ]
PvT: 9-6 (60%) [ Games ]

http://www.teamliquid.net/tlpd/sc2-korean/leagues/2867_2012_Global_StarCraft_2_Team_League_Season_2

If you look at the TvZ game list and see which zerg beat which terran, this is even more depressing.

Wtf are you trying to say? The zerg won't make 30 fucking lings to beat 5 marines. I responded to your point, you're just not smart enough to realize it.
