this is why I see it as comedy, they were among the most prominent balance whiners in BW and they haven't disappointed in SC2 (i mean making a show called 'IMBALANCED' cmon..)

Thinking that of all people these 2 could make a show like this, objectively evaluating game balance (which they are obviously trying to do) is just a joke, I mean how can IdrA expect to be taken seriously when he ragequits his stream with the words "Terran is a fucking joke, fuck you Blizzard" and then hops on camera to talk about what is fair between the 3 races?

He obviously only cares about what affects his performance, his race and how he can win the most, which is something he cant be blamed for, every single-race gamer does that to a certain extent. IdrA lets his emotions cloud his judgment, but the thing that irks me is that he doesnt recognize this and then proceeds to make flat out _wrong_ statements about certain matchups that other people pick up and then regurgitate to no end. (like saying going vs a 1gas Protoss is a coinflip, because he will either FE or 4gate while not scouting his opponents front past the initial zergling poke)

They are so very obviously biased against Terran and unless they either get one on their show (which i dont see happening) or both start playing random, this is just utter garbage, giving leeway to the idiots that already scream imbalance at the slightest frustration.

Each time i hear how Protoss is poor i get ill.
If you say that Protoss have hard time vs Terran in early game then what you will say about Terran life vs Protoss in late game? Super Hardocre Survival? (SHS).
Force Fields are doing amazingly well vs early bio pushes and allows to win early minor battles just with gate units.
Just throw MM ball without stim, shield and grenades on Protoss zeal/stalker/sentry ball and see what will happen. Terran need those upgrades to do anything early and Protoss dont need any upgrades beside warp tech for early game.


How much does concussive cost?
How much does stim cost?
How much does shield cost?

How much does a twilight cost?
How much does charge cost?
How much does blink cost?
How much does robotic's bay + range cost?
How much does storm + amulet cost?


How much does a barracks with addon cost?
How much does a factory with addon cost?
How much does a starport with addon cost?***

How much does a gateway cost?
How much does a robo cost?

Not to mention that it takes 2x longer to build a barracks than building a gateway.

***Remember to include lost mining time.

I guess it's common for a terran who doesn't like upgrades to avoid building a barracks, starport or factory...?

right.... Althou a barracks with a techlab takes 90 seconds and then you have to wait an additional 30 seconds for a marauder while a gateway takes 55 sec and you get a unit instantly.

So its roughly 120 seconds to get your unit with a barracks vs roughly 60 sec with a gateway. It takes about 2½ min to get units out of barracks with reactor but then you get 2 marines.

Comparing single unit initial time cost is stupid when it's something that gets used and produces things repeatedly over time.
HOLY CHECK!

Its fucking retarded to compare any of this stuff unless its seriously broken. Its racial difference. If you look at my original post I was refering to a guy who compared price for getting stim/shield/concussive to getting blink/charge/collusus range/storm.

You need lair for burrow, which makes it take a long time because if you lair too soon you won't have enough queens to stop a banshee rush.

If they plan on doing this on a regular basis they really have to start going WAY more into detail. I mean, on the one hand they emphazize that they are looking at things from a pro-gamer perspective, on the other hand they just randomly throw around build orders like "get a bunch of sentries against a bunch of units from 2 rax".
This is even more important against timing-attacks, when 10-20 seconds can be gamedeciding. Nearly everything they talked about I think most of us have already known (that you kinda need something else but unupgraded gateway-units to fight vs MM). They didn't even mention how the "third M", medivacs, HUGELY contribute to the effectiveness of stimmed bio-units, also because of the synergy with drop-play. I would have liked them to analyze things more specificly.

Please discuss why 'random race' is unfair for other players, and the extent to which it is unfair - should it be changed?

The reason I'm asking is because it forces standard play out of your opponent if you go random race, denying race-specific builds such as forge expands on shakuras plateau PvZ, or perhaps 11gas 13rax reactor hellions TvZ, It does not deny such builds for the random player.

I have also sent an e-mail about this.
