I'm imaging boxer using hydras like marines and infestors like siege tanks.

Dropping at three bases at once, holding siege lines with infestors, spreading creep like they were spider mines

It'd be awesome!

this really reads more like a joke/comment on balance than something that will happen.

while it surely could I don't think it will Just like Flash talking about playing toss. I understand the impulse but I don't expect it. Bisu said in his sc2 interview that he understands he is expected to play protoss from his fans and I think most pros feel this way, especially on the level of boxer.

I will follow my Emperor. He stay I stay, He switch, I switch

No reason to remain at Terran now. Everybody is so happy to see me on ladder as they rarely meet any Terran nowadays. Let's make this a 2 race game.
Marine is Terran strongest unit but it might be Terran's biggest weakness. Bcos of Marine so OP, other Terran unit regrettably have to be weak..

Boxer was protoss in BW originally until Reavers got nerfed, this is epic! Could see a new style of Protoss play.

Are you fucking retarded? What are the "good stuff" that Terran has got lately?

It pisses me off when protosses and zergs are telling Terrans to "give it a little time" and/or figure out a new strategy. Nobody ever told zergs to adapt thier strategy to the ghost in TvZ late game. You just started complaining about it and ghost was nerfed. Same with protosses complaining about the emp radius. Terran complain about storm but blizzard isn't doing shit.



IQ's must of dropped recently. Storm has been nerfed bad, radius and KA upgrade ring a bell?

terran complain about voids blizz nerfs them (charge up rate, overall damage, speed upgrade)
terran complains about 4 gate. nerfs 4 gate (warpgate upgrade, pylon radius, zealot/stalker build time)
terran complains about chargelots blizz nerfs them (charge is used up even if they attack nothing)

Get off your terran high horse. All races complain and ALL the races have seen some kind of blizz response

Only time terran had problems with voidrays was when they had 7 range in beta and wasn't it the zerg complaining about 4 gate? Also it was really easy to hold 4 gate with terran even before those nerfs, at least I don't remember having any problems defending 4 gate as terran.
Also the last one... what? O_o

EDIT:
I just remembered that most of those 4 gate nerfs were meant for PvP specifically. Which was basically about who was better at 4 gating long time ago.

What? You have it exactly backwards. Chargelots used to just charge, and could be evaded, and then later Blizzard made it so that they're guaranteed a hit on anything that isn't already dead.

He won't win with Protoss or Zerg either, so don't see the big deal. The relevance of this article is whether he returns as a player or not... I say maybe it's time he retire for real. I'm sure he would be the best coach SlayerS could ever wish for.

Great now terran's can have a QQ about their race being too weak. so lame, atleast know you know what it feels like to be zerg or protoss for the last 2 years.

Let me get this straight... in the terran-centered expansion, terrans absolutely crush and dominate professional play so much so that pro players for the first six months of play literally say zerg is non-viable, and it takes tons of buffs and favorable map changes to get zerg back in the game. THEN, in the upcoming zerg-centered expansion, terran players start crying about raceswitching because they think zerg or toss will be better?

This is an indictment of blizzard. They seem to be using expansions to sell games by playing a shell game of race favoritism. It seems like Starcraft 2 won't be balanced until well after Legacy of the Void, or perhaps after LotV maybe they'll announce the development of SC3...

What exactly is the point of whining about imbalance before it actually happens? You're just guessing.
