Stargate isnt useless PvT.

I think PvT is mosttttttttttttly fine, but.... P late game murders T late game, and P has more stylistic freedom (there's actually tech worth getting unlike for terran).

Still terran is really strong midgame and early late game.

Biggest reason to fix things is to make the matchup more fun, not so much balance at this point.

Seriously?

You drop down to 49% win rate and you need to be buffed? You're so spoiled.

And that's only because the new patch had just hit, and Terrans hadn't adjusted their playstyles yet.

How about you figure out the previous patch first, before whining already?


You missed the entire point. Win rate matters shit. Its not even about adjusting. YOu have to play the same way you always did. Because everything besides bio is useless (late game).

Prepatch tvp was a bit harder for terran, but overall not so bad.

Now its just directly retarded late game. You could try this: Make a poll. Ask both toss players and terran players how confident they feel late game vs the opposite race. I can tell you this, I dont know a single terran who likes tvp late game, and i dont know a single toss who doesn't like pvt late game.

But according to your logic terans just need to learn how to play. I guess you could use similar logic when tanks did 60 dmg to everything back in beta. Ppl just needed to learn how to defeat siege tanks.....



So I'm just making sure I get you right here. You really believe that players subjective feel about the matchup (especially when asking random players that could be in any league) matters more than pure statistic winrates on pro level?

Perception indeed is more important than raw data when it comes to balancing the game and making design decisions. Plus the pro level you're referring to is noobish compared to players like nestea, hero or mvp.

Dustin Browder stated though that he doesn't like the idea of races being overpowered or underpowered at different stages of the game, so we might see a fix regarding this issue (most likely with HotS).

and what buff would you suggest that is?

any buff to terran early game would certainly cause serious problems as terran is already capable of a ton of incredibly strong all ins.

just for kicks, i'd love it if they combined the +2 building armor/bunker upgrade into one

reaper speed to engine bay could also be nice. Im sure a couple zergs would disagree


I agree. Fixing the balance right now is really tough. Best short-term solution imo is revert EMP. TVP was never terran favored late game. If toss then would want another nerf to 1/1/1, i dont mind it.

Best long-term solution = Fix mech vs toss. However probably not gonna happen, and I dont think blizzard is gonna admit that that they made a clear mistake last patch and change emp back, so hence i quitted sc2. Its really not worth wasting time on tvp, when its so broken.


You quit starcraft because of the EMP nerf? Ouch... Doesn't that seem a bit harsh? Have a bit more faith in Blizz. They'll get it right eventually!


But likely not before hots. Terran hots units are all mech, so Blizzard is probably not going to touch mech until the expansion. Until then we're stuck with the powerful midgame-worthless lategame bio compositions.

Got Ultras? Np, I got Ghosts. Got Broodlords? Np, I got Ghosts. Got Infestors? Np, I got Ghosts. Got Overseers? Np, I got Ghosts. Got Mutas? Np, I got Ghosts. Got HTs? Np, I got Ghosts. Got DTs? Np, I got Ghosts. Got Immortals? Np, I got Ghosts. Got Sentries? Np, I got Ghosts. Got Phoenixes? Np, I got Ghosts. Got Zealots? Np, I got Ghosts.

So until other races get a unit that counters more than half of the other races complete arsenal, you please refrain from balance whining as a Terran.

Factory isn't useless in TvP either. There is 1/1/1, there's hellion all ins like the one HuK got knocked out by, there is tank marine, there's mech etc. We were referring to standard lategame and you don't see any stargate units used there.

When will people realize that balance should never ever matter in any random wood league.
Who cares if Jimmy the bronze terran keeps loosing to protoss because he fucking sucks. And I don't care whether Jimmy is bronze or diamand. Low League imbalance is caused by lack of skill and not because the matchup is broken.

Oh and no offense Jinro but it has been known for a very long time that TvP is far away from being your best matchup, you complained about it when T had like a 60% winratio vs P and you complain about it now that P is slightly favored.

It's a bit weird to bring up someones prowess in a matchup in this kind of discussion, especially since there's very few people in this thread that can even play TvP on higher level than Jinro. There would really be much discussion if we starts doing that.

Are you serious? Did you even read his post? You know, the part where he said the matchup was basically fine and didn't need balance changes?

I think it's quiet disgusting to see the attitude of the current Protoss players. It's as if they think this game owes them something!

Hoenstly, I've watched many matches of Jinro where he has actually been ahead of his Toss opponent but yet still gets rofl stomped by late game Toss and other games where he has JUST come out on top.

My translation of that post from Jinro is;

Leave the fucking MU as is. Because it's already next to impossible to beat a late game toss. Another nerf to Terrans and it's not even fucking worth spending such amounts of time on this race when you can just 1 A when playing the Toss race.

I can't see Terran getting a buff just because of the pure fact we would see more "QQ Terran imba" in these threads then we've ever seen.

I guess it's best just to leave it with Terrans knowing they are playing against a 1 A ticking time bomb.

@Lorch, it's very easy to say "wood league" doesn't matter. Enjoy your easy P v T wins champ, well deserved wins those are.

Fix the game, remove the colossus. FUCK THE COLOSSUS! i hate that skill-less, ugly, gimmicky, shit unit that only takes 1-A to use. and I say that as a random player who used to be 100% protoss. seriously, that unit is awful.

You drop down to 49% win rate and you need to be buffed? You're so spoiled.

And that's only because the new patch had just hit, and Terrans hadn't adjusted their playstyles yet.

How about you figure out the previous patch first, before whining already?


You missed the entire point. Win rate matters shit. Its not even about adjusting. YOu have to play the same way you always did. Because everything besides bio is useless (late game).

Prepatch tvp was a bit harder for terran, but overall not so bad.

Now its just directly retarded late game. You could try this: Make a poll. Ask both toss players and terran players how confident they feel late game vs the opposite race. I can tell you this, I dont know a single terran who likes tvp late game, and i dont know a single toss who doesn't like pvt late game.

But according to your logic terans just need to learn how to play. I guess you could use similar logic when tanks did 60 dmg to everything back in beta. Ppl just needed to learn how to defeat siege tanks.....



So I'm just making sure I get you right here. You really believe that players subjective feel about the matchup (especially when asking random players that could be in any league) matters more than pure statistic winrates on pro level?


Problem is that you dont understand how to apply statisctics. If someone would make a survey using only top level play, and analyzing games where both players got into late game equal terran would be much below 50% vs toss (after patch). At master level and below stats would probably be below 40%.

Prepatch late game tvp at top level was probably around 50%. Master level probab 45-50%. Diamond prob. around 40%.

And yes I just pulled numbers out of my ass, but they are probably a better estimate than the kind of misusing of statistics that you are using.

and what buff would you suggest that is?

any buff to terran early game would certainly cause serious problems as terran is already capable of a ton of incredibly strong all ins.

just for kicks, i'd love it if they combined the +2 building armor/bunker upgrade into one

reaper speed to engine bay could also be nice. Im sure a couple zergs would disagree


I agree. Fixing the balance right now is really tough. Best short-term solution imo is revert EMP. TVP was never terran favored late game. If toss then would want another nerf to 1/1/1, i dont mind it.

Best long-term solution = Fix mech vs toss. However probably not gonna happen, and I dont think blizzard is gonna admit that that they made a clear mistake last patch and change emp back, so hence i quitted sc2. Its really not worth wasting time on tvp, when its so broken.


You quit starcraft because of the EMP nerf? Ouch... Doesn't that seem a bit harsh? Have a bit more faith in Blizz. They'll get it right eventually!


Prob with tvp was that it was an extremely boring matchup (bio is just boring). And now it just ogt imbalanced as well. Rather use my time on something else. If a good patch hits, i will consider starting to play again.

But likely not before hots. Terran hots units are all mech, so Blizzard is probably not going to touch mech until the expansion. Until then we're stuck with the powerful midgame-worthless lategame bio compositions.


Got Ultras? Np, I got Ghosts. Got Broodlords? Np, I got Ghosts. Got Infestors? Np, I got Ghosts. Got Overseers? Np, I got Ghosts. Got Mutas? Np, I got Ghosts. Got HTs? Np, I got Ghosts. Got DTs? Np, I got Ghosts. Got Immortals? Np, I got Ghosts. Got Sentries? Np, I got Ghosts. Got Phoenixes? Np, I got Ghosts. Got Zealots? Np, I got Ghosts.

So until other races get a unit that counters more than half of the other races complete arsenal, you please refrain from balance whining as a Terran.


List of terran units that the carrier counters:
Marauder, reaper, ghost, helion, siege tank, thor, medvac, raven, banshee.

List of terran units the counters the carrier:
Marine, viking, battlecruiser.

List of zerg units that the carrier counters:
Queen, zergling, baneling, roach, ultralisk, mutalisk, broodlord.

List of zerg units that counter the carrier:
Hydralisk, corruptor.

Protoss has an unit that counters more than half of the other races complete arsenal. You happy?


You just didn't compare a barracks unit with the useless overpriced T3 capital ship xD


You're implying Ghosts are like T1 or something.

Barracks -> Tech Lab -> Ghost Academy. If anything they're T2.

Nonetheless, the ultimatum was not for cost -- it was for a unit that beat half of the other races arsenal. That's what was provided. Ghosts may be a bit strong, but I think it's a little overreacting to say they counter EVERYTHING.

Hoenstly, I've watched many matches of Jinro where he has actually been ahead of his Toss opponent but yet still gets rofl stomped by late game Toss and other games where he has JUST come out on top.

My translation of that post from Jinro is;

Leave the fucking MU as is. Because it's already next to impossible to beat a late game toss. Another nerf to Terrans and it's not even fucking worth spending such amounts of time on this race when you can just 1 A when playing the Toss race.

I can't see Terran getting a buff just because of the pure fact we would see more "QQ Terran imba" in these threads then we've ever seen.

I guess it's best just to leave it with Terrans knowing they are playing against a 1 A ticking time bomb.

@Lorch, it's very easy to say "wood league" doesn't matter. Enjoy your easy P v T wins champ, well deserved wins those are.

Fix the game, remove the colossus. FUCK THE COLOSSUS! i hate that skill-less, ugly, gimmicky, shit unit that only takes 1-A to use. and I say that as a random player who used to be 100% protoss. seriously, that unit is awful.

IMO uninteresting units like that should tottaly get removed, change infestor so fungal growth doesn't stop units completely, replace collosus with something else, remove marauder, also make it so broodlords aren't just a-move units

Dont think we need to remove the collosus and mauruder.

Collosus just need to be reworked compltely, and made a difficult to use optimally unit (and not a micro killer like fungal).
Mauruder should be a niche unit. Imagine if mech was viable in tvp, then you could open bio expand. Do some dropping while transitioning into mech. That would be fine for me.

I dont mind as well that bio heavy in tvt is an option against a mech player that doesn't play safe (perhaps he takes too many expos too heavily). And i Mean in tvz we some times see bio heavy openings.

I dont mind that use of the mauruder. Just make mech more viable in tvp and the mauruder is fine IMO.
