I'm no expert but I've felt for a long time that Terrans are forced to play a little predictable in their matchups (part of the reason why I think MKP is so successful is that he is less predictable). I'd love to see some kind of Mech buff that would make playing mech not only viable but also standard in all 3 matchups. As a Zerg, I'm most afraid of mech and I think the buffing it will give Terrans the versatility they need. If it's a good buff it should introduce a slew of new timings and bio-mech styles too.

(As for what specifically, I have no idea: I would like to see more Raven play though, they seem like they could function as an "enabling" unit. Buff to HSM, any Terrans out there?)
They're coming to get you, Barbara.

Terran's are consistently the only race that creates tons of unique and standard build orders. Not sure what you are implying.


I want to see Terrans adapt to the game instead of creating builds that abuse the other races. And ofcourse terrans make the most strategies because it has such a good design that allows it. That doesn't mean every build out there is smart or deserves attention.


Er. Surely that is adapting to the game, abusing the weaknesses of other races. Terrans do it consistantly - TvP is all about avoiding the autowin 3/3 deathball. Same in TvZ - since the ghost nerf, it's all about finding some way of dealing with the inevitable T3 deathball.

Sure, Terrans can get their own deathball (the mech deathball) but it's also massively expensive and extremely difficult to replace with a number of severe weaknesses that simply don't exist in the other two deathballs because P and Z casters are ten times stronger than their Terran equivalents.


Hah, since when is abusing other races not adapting to the game? Every race abuses the other, thats how they win. (responding to the guy you quoted)

Making a safe build for late game is way different than making the 1-1-1 build that worked because protos was flawed. (talking about the past). That is abusing.

Creating the double forge build for example doesn't abuse anything. (or you use the word abuse for everything that the other race can't do to you, in witch case you abuse the fact that the opponent can't kill you lol)

i still think queen buff was a good change for gamedesign, so i think removing it would be bad, it gave alot more freedom to various strategies
what we need is some nerfs on fungal or against the extreamly defensive hive zerg builds where its just hard to attack into, especially for terran.

Lets not forget that the last GSL Code S had 7 Zergs and 15 Terrans and no Zergs in the Ro16. I don't play Zerg myself but I'm glad they're doing better again so we get to see all matchups in Code S.

In all fairness I think this is just terrans floundering a bit after their go-to strategy was swept out from under them. As they practice vs. more zergs and the meta shifts, they'll do better. At times like these the Bisu build is a great example. No changes from Blizzard, but once people figured out certain strategies the matchup fell back into balance.

Is anybody here who can say something about what the coaches think? Why are terrans not that often used in GSTL this season?

Zerg is currently the strongest race, nothing imbalaced just people figured out how to deal with toss/terran timings and force lategame which is insane as a zerg

So you say because terrans have won in the past its balanced that its Zerg turn to be the best race?

Don't these statsitcs, as well as the GSTL statistics speak for themselves?
Unfortunately the IM Coach didn't get the memo though.

sample size is 1,6k games for tvz alone of which only a few have been on the new patch...do u think it will get better with a bigger amount of games played with the queen buff? as we can see in the gstl, tahts not the case
if u dont like the 1,6k sampel size take the 10k smaple size of international events where tvz is 45%... or wait until teh sillieness which will be the june winrates :D

The only thing these graphs accomplish is give baddies a reason to whine about their race/worst matchup. Seriously. And this is coming from a Terran player.
"Good luck." "I don't need luck. I have ammo."

I'm saying that we're finally getting close to having all races represented evenly in Code S after many many many many season of Terrans being overrepresented. Did you forget MVP (a Terran) won the GSL only a couple of weeks ago stomping through everyone? If Zergs continue to win every single game against Terrans then I'm sure Blizzard will react, but a lot of losses in the GSTL have been to stupid moves from Terrans as well, it's a tiny sample size.

I stopped playing zerg after 2 years because i thought they where getting too strong.
played random for a bit, and now main terran.


Same here - except i switched immadiately to terran.
Nonethless I feel TvP is much more shitty match-up, at least in lategame against Zerg i can still win - it is just very map dependent.

experiment with Mech.

Mech's viable. I've personally never built a maruder.
i just hate them so i refuse to build them.


me too, they are camouflaged protoss units

a solid 61%-39% winrate for zvt in korea, what you have to count into that is that the buff only hit the last 10 days of may so june is gonna get even more affected by that which means tvz is the most imbalanced matchup in sc2 history right now

I wonder why! What needs to happen is the snipe change has to be reverted to make mech and bio viable late lategame. No other changes needed.
