This thread is going nowhere and I'm tired of dealing with it. Either drop the personal attacks and whining and replace it with actual discussion or it'll be closed. 12:09 KST Page 98 | ||

Protoss - 38.5% (268) Terran - 23.8% (166) Zerg - 35.4% (247) You can find these stats here http://sc2ranks.com/stats/league/all/1/all Until now in GM the lowest representation has been during patch 1.3.5. when Zerg had 29.3%, now compare that to Terran having 23.8% right now... | ||

So when I was arguing for stim nerf and blueflame nerf in the past, it seems fair to argue against what I find the worst patch ever in the present. But this just my opinion, and zerg players may come up with valuable arguments, why this was needed. What I must say is, that I'm pretty surprised about some comments in this thread, calling the standard hellion opnener op in some way. This was standard for 1 year or so. Maybe I missed out the discussion about this, but I for sure was not aware of this beeing an issue for higher level zergs at all. What is your opinion on this? | ||

Actually had no idea that was a issue at all. I felt the zergs did defend it well pre queen patch. But haven't really checked up on the fact that Zerg had issues there so can't really contribute. If that's the case maybe the buff to queen was deserved but blizzard didn't realize that it would affect this much when they implemented it | ||

Ok, play T and show us the path, mighty prophet ! Seriously, i wouldn't believe you if you told me you've tried Terran once. Why would a Zerg harass a Terran now, when he can just outmacro him (even 3OC openers when scouted, because they can grab more base safely...) pulling only drones of his larvae ? And how about you explain which units T refuse to acknowledge their existence ? Don't you think pros have tried them ? Like, say, trying to see if there was viable options that could improve their play ? But you must be way smarters than Mvp/MMA/MKP. | ||

Seeing how zergs now always take their third so early,3OC?NO GO 4OC LOLLLXD I think playing as terran now,you should just go 2 rax all-in with scv pulls or playing super greedy with eco-cheese. But then again terrans are still doing well in GSL and GSL is the highest skill level in the world. If terrans number started to drop rapidly,then you may have to something to say. So yeah not much to say. Rerember amulet removal?People were saying toss cannot win anymore and the game was broken? Rerember ghost EMP radius nerf? People were saying EMP won't be good anymore when the fact is pre-nerf ghost blanket EMP can dish out more than 1000k dmg to a toss army. People always cry imbalance after a nerf or buff. The Korean Terrans will find a solution soon enough. | ||

In reality, I think that it is pretty balanced, just terrans have to get more used to not using early aggression as a crutch, which high level players are accomodating better to. Ya, a whopping 10 games is clearly evidence of Zerg being balanced, despite the fact that every GSL Terran has come out and said that they're too strong. | ||

From those stats it would seem that Protoss is the one messing things up more. Everyone is complaining about the queen, but silently Protosses are conquering the world. | ||

Admittedly basically the same as PvZ with vortex, but still a terrible fix. Ghost buff: If you get to the situation, you can massacre the opponents BLs or you just loose. Raven buff: Either the opponent clumps up, or you loose. Admittedly, buffing either of those units would atleast make the MU better, but the issue really lies with the BL/infestor(/corruptor) synergy, which is just way to great. | ||
