Well, at least NP still works on massive.. Sigh at Rax time though, not really worried about hellions, since after having + vehicle upgrade they will still 2 shot workers But the Rax time.....5 secs can be huge. But its ok, time to adapt and find new strats!  Happy playing everyone | ||

I also hope you are joking with snipe, how are you going to snipe 30 zealots charging to your face in less then 5 seconds? Also, I see no problems with Hellions doing this amout of damage to workers later in the game, at least in TvT. It's like leaving your base without Missile Turrets and suddenly a bunch of Mutas appear completly devastating your economy. As Terran you have PF, turret rings, ST, 1-2 siege tanks parked at expos/important places, more than enough to prevent Hellions from ruining your day. | ||

Some things can be directly compared...like a spore colony is slightly weaker than a missile turret in damage output, but can move and is slightly cheaper. But most things are so different in so many ways that assigning any sort of value to any attribute is nearly impossible. Results are one of the only things that can accurately determine any sort of comparison between races, and even that is flawed because of small sample sizes and differing player skills. | ||

Or is it just that short cut to check their leagues and not league icons in score screen? My update broke my game, reinstalling all over again....sigh | ||

I agree, but he was quoting someone who was reminding someone to add 50 minerals to the cost of spore crawlers because of the drone lost. Building a spore crawler costs 75 minerals and you lose a drone which costs 50 minerals. Its very clear, very direct. There is no reason to leave it out of the discussion | ||
