Weakest? Hardly.

Maybe hardest to play, but even that is stretching it.

I'm sorry but it's not beta anymore...

Yeah T is much harder than zerg and especially toss.


How? Mechanically? Zerg is clearly harder mechanically, just the nature of the race and balancing drone/unit production.

To be honest balancing drones/unit is way easier than having to constantly remember to every...
17 seconds make SCVs
30 seconds make Marines
45 seconds make Tanks
42 seconds make Vikings
With each of those things going at a different pace all in different and constantly changing order.

Added to the need to constant add production facilities, expansions, upgrades, and manage building placement, like clockwork over and over again, while managing an army with some of the most micro intensive units (marine micro isn't as easy as it looks, especially when you snap back to your army and see a wall of green rolling towards it)

90% of the games a Terran player loses is because of the added up time of missed unit production resulting in unspent minerals and overall weaker armies. Something that can't happen to Zerg by the nature of your play, and something that doesn't effect a protoss player's play style (usually a P leaves some supply open for warp ins).


Honestly, all SC2 mechanics are nothing compared to BW. No race is hard compared to BW. You youngins just need to suck it up. Protoss, Terran, and Zerg (yes Zerg too) are not hard.

The hard part is not the race mechanics. People need to stop judging which race is harder than which race, because none of that matters. If I am missing production cycles, it's because I'm bad. Not because my race is "hard".


I could not agree more. I don't think it's even humanly possible for Blizz to further dumb down the mechanics in SC2.

At the highest levels of play, mechanics aren't what determine whether or not someone wins.

Maybe depending on how the Rakaka event turns out, perhaps the winner can be offered a chance to join IM? That'll be pretty cool. Thorzain seems like a good kid with a lot of potential, for example (though I heard he's busy with school?).

Artosis: What do you think about Balance?

IMNestea:
Terran: Practice for just a little while, and you'll be great
Protoss: If you get good at it, it just seems unbeatable
Zerg: Sad.....

That could not have been said any better. Coming from IMNestea :D
Pretty much explains the current situation very precisely.

The reason Terran seems "weak" is because for those people who have been playing since beta, you were used to being able to walk to your opponents base in 5 seconds. Now, with the bigger maps, Zerg has more time to build an army / prepare.

Just like Zerg had to adapt against Terran, Terran now has to adapt against Zergs.

It's really puzzling that IM does not have a sponsor being the most successful SC2 team up until this point. I really hope they get a large sponsor soon because if there's one team that deserves it, it's IM.

Fixed your post to make it relevant. Yea, your right. MVP needs to stop hoping for Steppes of War in the GSL.
Hell, its awesome to LOSE to nukes!
