I doubt it.


lol, it's kind of sad that the first documented whine in "terran tears" thread is from zerg.

c'mon zerg players, man up! show us some ss of raging terrans you personally owned! or replays or videos! anything goes, as long as it's authentic.


here you go

Hmm. I don't really see this as something huge, i'm just glad Zerg has something like this. Apparently it took an instructional video on youtube for zerg players to realize they can't just A-move and stack up vs an unit that deals sick splash damage vs air.

A korean zerg player consumes her daily supply of Terran tears from her vanguished foes!

Rejoice my Brood! We shall overcome! Idra, our Overmind has set in motion the means to evolve and dominate the Terran scum! We will demoralize them! We will PWN them!

DONT READ: ESL RESULTS
[spoiler]Today, Idra has demonstrated the magic box technique, using 20 mutalisks to take down 5-6 thors at a time and rendering Tarson's army useless. He uses a technique called the magic box that most of you are familiar with.




We have a vidoe anywhere of the match ?

Wow, so IdrA does good against a Terran player who doesn't scout, masses too many Hellions and gets 4 Thors to deal with 20 Mutalisks and all of the sudden the matchup is fixed? Pretty sure Thors aren't the biggest issue with TvZ.

The early game will forever be the problem, reaper + hellion harassment, marine + hellion pushes. These are the real problems, as well as clear map imbalance that gives such a benefit to siege/thor drops.

Tears will continue, the matchup is nowhere near balanced, and for the record, Tarson should have gotten marines, he's foolish for pumping pure Thors against Mutalisk, it's that kind of train of thought that made Terran v Zerg so easy before, he's going mutalisk? LOL THORS

Perhaps now Terran players will have to use some diversity in their unit composition, but it by no means is a done deal.

I cannot believe more people aren't upset over how clearly overpowered TLOBrian is.

If you mean adding 25 to 50% marines that die to banelings, yes.

oh crap, another thread on these so called ""new"" """magic""" ""boxes"". I just shouldnt even start it...

If you think this is imbalanced, you are terrible, if you think this is new, you are uninformed. that sums it up.

Thank you so much for making a useful post detailing strategies Zerg can actually use to combat Terran ranged advantages, force additional scans and trepidation about moving out, etc.

READ THE FRIGGIN THREAD SON.

Seriously....

I really don't think you are old enough to be my father, maybe my little brother.
And if you're saying read every post, i wont, i'm just saying you shouldnt create a thread about it, it's annoying enough that Terrans are crying about this stuff for the 2 reasons i named. 1. It's not OP, it's not unorthodox, it's really not hard to deal with it. 2. It's a known tactic, wich was used by lots of players. Apparently as it turned out 3/4 of Zergs were copying IdrArtosis in their ZvT style, but still. Making a useless thread which is neither funny nor informative nor solves any problem it's a bad idea. Period. Srry if i sound agresssive, im a bit tired, and sick of the ammount of nonesense i've read today on this page, no wonder most of the good players dont post here, props for the few who do and have the nerves to stay calm, i'm not that good, but it aches to hear all this whine/rage/surprise/amazment etc... from both races over this topic.

Everyone is talking about balance and skill and strategies after every single friggin game, like they would understand half of what they just saw on the stream.

The "zerg tears" thread was terrible enough, making one to screw with that is equally stupid, which is sad, as i like to think the average Zerg poster is more reasonable then the average Terran poster, and it's sad to see that proved wrong

After all the whining and crying from Zerg players, this is just getting ridiculous. Just play the game.

EDIT: HAHAHAHAHA, I just saw the post above ^^, Idra having self respect???? LOL, good one.

That's a possibility I suppose, the magic box, but that requires you to fly directly over their thor which is probably right near their army full of marines because they saw you going mass muta. This isn't the end-all solution to mech though.
I used to be just like you, then I took a sweetroll to the knee.

Geo.Rion, can we gather by your above post that you do NOT think that TLOBrian is overpowered?

Please cite your sources and examples, and possible thread replays of evidence as to why TLOBrian is, in fact, not imba.

What? Who's talking about this Brian or whoever, i'm talking about the ridiculous discussion going about these "new magic boxes" which fueled the OP to make this useless thread. I might be missing something, point it out if i do, but to me it seem it's just another terrible thread which wants to be funny.

This thread did seem pretty forced. Should have at least waited for some Terran players to complain about countering Mutas.

Also we can still spend the entire early game abusing you, so...
