A Protoss standing with Zergs on balance? This is madness.

Anyways, it's not that Terran want to go 4M all the time, it's that they have to. Mech gets shut down easily by mutalisks and everything protoss has, while losing to bio's mobility, while without widow mines we get what happened in WoL where Zerg just had to a-move into tanks/marines/ marauders and it was nearly always cost efficient, and Zerg were the majority in nearly every tournament up until season 2 of WCS.

Dancing with myself oh oh oh.

Find it hard to believe this is mc,am somewhat thinking its a troll after reading all what mc suposedly said.
A whole rant about the zvt meta game and then no word about protoss wich seems verry odd for a protoss player, and then the part about lol wich doesnt make much sense to me either.
Annyway:verry interesting to read his thoughts (though am a bit sceptic) would love to read mor pro players vieuws on the game.

Great post, thanks for the translation Terry.

MC is right, TvZ has become very 1 dimensional and something needs to be done about it.

I think it is less about balance and more that terran units need tweaking. If you make gas a valuable resource to T somehow then medivac drops would be more costly. Suddenly it becomes less "I will rally a speed medivac to your main/natural and to your 3rd while I push your creep back because lings are not ever enough to handle marines and if I lose the medivac to a spore or mutas, who cares I have 2k gas banked"

The question is, how do you make gas valuable? Make mines cost 75/75? Make 2-2 and 3-3 cost more gas to research? Make speed on medivacs require research?

We don't even know if mech works or not. Since 4M is so reliable no one ever explored mech in tvz. So, please drop these claims that mech doesn't work.

that's like saying since broodlord infestor was so reliable, no zergs ever tried anything else

not that I know what zergs were doing at that time, but generalizations either way is really stupid.

Thanks for the translation! Agree, I think ultras should fare better versus widow mines, like getting them out should be the end to that stage of the game?

Really good thoughts by the Boss Toss. And I wholeheartedly agree. His words regarding the scene were particularly charming.
