I m saying i saw terrans doing 5 if not 10 times the mistakes other players did and still winning the games.
Its not that bad anymore, but terran is still the most mistake tolerable race around. And i think in a few weeks or month we will need another little patch about that..

I love it. TLO's queen play is always amazing to see.

wow yea I was going to ask for something to be done about the above post, thanks for the timely response. On topic, I an so happy tlo is back to zerg. His play in the beta is what made me choose zerg in the first place. And to all of those posts about balance, there are so many other threads for that, lets discuss the topic at hand. I always thought he was more aligned to zerg play and I understand the frustration that drove him to choose terran, but in so happy he's back. And even of his decision was based somewhat on the patch notes, big deal. This is his job, of course he's going to take his opportunity for success into account, doing otherwise would be foolish.

I'm just looking forward to seeing some more TLO innovation!

Actually, any chance that picture could be removed? Its distracting and inappropriate.

Then what is to stop the T from also taking another base so as to equalise?

Did you not see HopeTorture FE hold off Protoss super aggressive 4 gate push?

In any case, this thread is about TLO switching his main race, so in that sense, best of luck to him.


because terran got hard time to take third safely...but honestly... you realy want more macro fest ?

you dont think they are something wrong when one race can be greedy and mass exp and the only option the other race got = timing push ?

did you not see tiny toon when he was litle and owned the turtle ( my off topic good ? )

im switching the talk to protoss balance ?!

sorry for talk about race balance when someone who played terran , switch to one other race , btw what we should talk about in one topic about someone switching ? ho sorry , grats TLO good luck with zerg ?! im fealing like a douche for talk about balance in terran vs zerg here now .


Difficult third expo? Ever heard of planetary fortress?

As for protoss talk, my point of FE vs. Protoss was to show the effectiveness of a proper Terran FE since comparing the early pushes vs. Z or P, the P has the more deadly push.

I'm not sure how your point differs from my point.

Which is "that's inherently flawed design".

why would it take months to learn zerg when you already know all the hotkeys and general play style? I am not a great player, but pretty good for how much i actually play and I can easily pick up any race because of the many many years of playing sc.

I'm not surprised that TLO switched. But I think blizzard will make another balance change, favoring Terran. So even tho I understand that TLO's favorite units are not effective since the patch, I believe these units will be effective soon enough.

Boxer emailed David Kim regarding the latest patch and how it has essentially broken traditional Terran gameplay. Here is what Slayer_Boxer and fruitseller said during Blizzcon:

Q: How do you view the recent patches?
Boxer: I'm very weird, in every patch it's the units I love to use that are nerfed. Before, I liked to use tanks, and now they are nerfed. I also liked 3rax, but that strategy was nerfed. More unsettling is that not only was Terran nerfed, Zerg was buffed. I spent two hours writing a letter to David Kim (dayvie). Every time, the new patches are hard to adjust to, so I hope in the future the changes aren't cataclysmic.
Fruitdealer: In terms of Zerg, aside from defense, right now playing is more comfortable due to less early problems. But it seems that the special aspects of SC2 have been decreasing. Even though I'm doing well, other players might consider it bad.

Q: Have you (Fruitdealer) written to Blizzard before?
Fruitdealer: I haven't, but Check and David Kim (dayvie) are familiar with each other. I saw Check send a lot of emails to David Kim. It's possible he's part of the reason Zerg has been getting buffs.

Q: And you, Boxer?
Boxer: Every time a certain Zerg sends emails to Blizzard, it's always reps in which they lose. I think we Terrans should unite as well and send some losing reps.

Ive always thought he was a better Zerg player than Terran. His use of infestors are ommmm! But as a T...I feel that I have lost something inside of me...

Not totally derailing you though it is too early to tell if this patch makes Zerg completely broken or not but in those SlayerSBoxeR vs Fruitseller games it "appears" that there was very little boxer could do to win as Zergs macro potential and unit effectiveness vs Terrans is just devastating and there was no way for BoxeR to take and hold a third in either game because of the ease Zerg can take map control simply by surviving Terran attempts to punish a FE.


Yup, Boxer played those games quite well but there was little he could do. Hopefully, Blizzard analyzes the Fruitdealer vs Boxer matches at Blizzcon and rebalance the game accordingly.

awesome, ever since the tlo vs whitra where tlo was random, I loved his zerg play.

I mean- that nydus canel base trade was awesome.
I aim to become a hydralisk and then stop posting, cause I don't wanna be a queen...
