Wat a joke, releasing that big of a patch without a PTR or responding to the feedback they have been getting from the pros...ouch :\ biggest backhand ever I don't understand you. Nobody can beat a protoss but a zerg will win the final ? I guess that every pvp shall last 10000years. Another good patch! | ||

This leaves three options: 1. Make a few pre-emptive phoenix so that you're not completely behind the air vs. air count... but then Zerg might just not make mutalisks at all. 2. Go hardcore double-stargate after you see the mutalisk transition, although Zerg can still tech switch and phoenix are more niche units anyway. 3. Go blink/ storm and sacrifice mobility for well-rounded unit compositions. They're still pretty good against mutalisks. Maybe you can get phoenix and the air upgrade later on. A lot of us still opt for option three, as we don't want to be locked into air tech or have dead supply in phoenix. Yes its make sense .. After i see this new patch notes i was "omg.. now toss will sit in base with mass cannons , gonna make x2 stargate and then mothership rush , with some 2-3 gate stalkers" But i was mistaken Now i just wait for some late game ZvT , to test ultras/ling/infestor vs terran after nerf of snipe. I was playign with friends but its not the same .. as game under pressure on ladder. | ||

Then it gets more difficult for Terran , not unwinnable but harder since the Terran army doesn't really improve after the midgame. You get your Bio and or Mech and upgrades then you're basically done. So you gotta do something with it if you can't do that then you will probably lose .And i don't think this is how a game should work. Even if this results in 50-50 balance it's still a stupid ass game design. So what do you suggest? | ||

I don't think you can actually really patch the game with some small changes to really balance it out since they decided to add so many totally ridiculous mechanics into the game. So in HotS they need to take a look at lot of stuff and make some really radical changes to it. The crux is that Warpgate/Chrono / The Larva mechanics and Mules maybe Reactors are pretty hard to really balance in every situation of the game. So they have to take those mechanics and completely gut them and i mean really gut them so the focus is no longer entirely on them. ( or at least make them kinda more similar ) A complete overhaul in my opinion is needed to really balance the game . Not sure Blizzard has the balls to admit their mistakes though and do those changes. With what they've shown for HotS so far its looking like it only gets worse. | ||

Stop posting. No, its like I'm sick of terran QQ, even before they are underpowered. In fact, terrans are doing great at the moment. When Z and P were QQing, at least their win rates were shit. But whats you excuse? | ||

It has been almost year since we had EU Terran win a major event (Thorzain winning TSL3 in March 2011). It's been pretty much donwhill from there. Yeah, the Terrans in Korea are doing alright, but this does solve the problem at all. | ||

If he manages to get out almost pure Corrupter / Broodlord and few Infestors/Lings maybe Blings you're now fucked. Thors do very little against both and you would need like 20-30 Vikings which are almost impossible to get without having ~5 reactored Starports. And even then Infestors are very lethal since it's impossible to spread out so many Vikings as much as you would need to not get more then 2-3 Fungaled and still manage to hit enough targets at the same time. If you spread out too much to Corrupters will just pick of the Vikings if you clump too much the Infestors eat you alive. Thors don't provide suffient cover against Corrupters, hell they don't even do that against Vikings in TvT so no way they'd do that against Corrupters. | ||

Yeah, the Terrans in Korea are doing alright, but this does solve the problem at all. And when was the last time non-korean P or Z have won a tournament? As far as I can see, since the time Koreans (and those foreigners training in Korea) have began participating in foreign tournaments, no foreigner has won anything. | ||

Obviously, it gets more complicated than this in a real game, but it's still an issue. | ||
