Perhaps they should practice more than 3rax? For real though since the GSL finals Terran has won 4 out of the 6 tournaments and Protoss has won one. Zerg has won one.

Which tournaments are those? Terrans have won one premiere tournament since GSL S2, and two major tournaments.

The last 6 on liquipedias recent tournaments.

I'm really hesitant to argue about what qualifies as premier or not though. It has HSC listed as premier and that isn't exactly right is it?

I don't recall the criteria for being a premiere tournament, I'm just assuming that the liquipedia page is correct.

Anyway, the recent results page hasn't been updated in a year, and the completed sidebar on the liquipedia front page has way more than six tournaments, so I don't know know which list you're referring to.

For reference, these are the pages I'm looking at:

The problem is that they didn't adress Mass Reaper and with the map pool they proposed it's gonna be 2-3 racks reaper festival. There's only one 4 player map and the rest of them are small enough to make proxy mass reapers imba as hell. So mass reaper into siegetank/cyclone/hellion and gg Zerg.

It's just a joke that terran got a cheese that doesn't put them behind in the game even when they deal no damage, and it's been 1 year. If koreans haven't figured it out by now, it's because there's no counter.

And this adding to a matchup where zerg's only chance is getting hive, just totaly broken.

For 6 years protoss players have been allowed to cannon rush to masters, and now terran is just as retarded, guess this is the apex of Blizzard's vision of balance.

The fact that the best zerg in the world opens pool first says everything about this game.

But predictably you had no problem with 20 armor ultras and overpowered ravagers. Lets stop this whining. If anything Zerg needs a nerf on invincible nydus worms.

As protoss player, I am really annoyed by the continuous posts complaining about "gimmick" and "cancer" .... these two words are enough to make me skip a post: P, T and Z are different races, if you don't like how P works maybe you don't like this game. I like how my race works, I don't want to see it redesigned because T players want to have all races play the same.
I like PO, I think it's a cool solution, I don't think it's "gimmick" (I don't even know what this word means anymore, it's almost the same as "protoss" now..). I like adepts, I like warping in units and not producing them the same as T or Z. I like the idea of an "hero" unit like the MSC, and I think it's cool and fun to use.
I don't think that the MSC is a "one-click" denfense vs drops: in fact, I loose to drops all the times, as well as proplayers do.

Deal with the fact that this game may not be what you want, if you only want to play TvT with slightly different races.

This is a fallacy. Just because Protoss arguably has a lot of gimmicks because mean people who point this out want all races to be the same.

According to the link in the Battle.net launcher it says they got it... except you're right, that link leads to old information.

I don't know I why I trusted that source... my mistake.

They made so many changes since introducing balance test ladder that it can get confusing. They dismissed Ravager armoured flag as Ravagers were trashed by Stalkers, tanks, cyclones and more. That unit would be dead with that flag and totally useless.

Going to comment, i'd like people that read/respond to keep in mind i'd already played and seen 50+ games of the "test mod" which is basically the same as the live patch is now:

Mech is the same if not worse on this patch. Infestor burrow, but mainly invincible nydus and swarmhost in particular are broken as hell. Needs to be hotfixed. I mentioned that swarmhosts needed to be hotfixed months ago when the test mod came out and for some reason other people did and it was ignored. The patch is going to kill the game if swarmhosts are not fixed within the next few days.

Next is, this patch did absolutely nothing to address mech anti-air issues vs all capital ships/broods. Protoss can make pure carrier, and then add in high templar / archon underneath and your anti-air is actually even WORSE because cyclones are suck against air. Not like they worked before, but now they're 10x worse.

As for Protoss...Protoss is basically in the same boat as mech Terran. I think most Protoss players will quit the game after they realize every game is about to turn into infestor/swarmhost type of non-sense, as well as baneling buff ruining both ZvT and PvZ. Banelings were already strong vs both races, now it's a problem.

This patch really did not address issues or increase mech viability because blizzard does the same mistake they do every time when it comes to mech viability. Buff 1 thing of mech while buffing 20 of the anti-mech things (such as hydralisks, the buff was unnecessary). It's terrible.

I honestly think they missed a lot of huge issues too like:

-adept is not balanced properly still
-invincible nydus worm still in the game (shouldn't be)
-mass reaper is still in the game (shouldn't be)
-swarmhost on test map needed a hotfix, still does

Disappointing patch. Disappointing wait for the patch. Disappointing they listened to absolutely no feedback about mech anti-air, and just overall disappointed that they have no clue what they are doing.

I agree. Especially about Swarmhosts, they single handily hard counter mech worse then what even the HOTS immortal did. They basically make the game unplayable if you play mech.

I really hope Blizzard hotfix this. The rest of the issues can be fixed within a month or so but Swarmhosts are absurd right now.

Actually I'm pretty sure the decision to let tanks die to 3 biles is a very conscious one and I would agree with it. The real testing begins now, if it doesn't work out a number like that can easily be adjusted.
Maru and Serral are probably top 5.

and by the way people saying blizzard can't do math and should set the tank hp @ 180 in order to let them survive 3 corrosive biles are probably at odds with math themselves because corrosive bile is most likely a spell and ignores armor =p

3x60 = 180 = dead tank anyways

My post said above 180 so 181 minimum. But nice try.

In macro games the sentiment is nice. But when you get roach/ravager all-in'd? You can't micro your tanks but they still die at the same rate. The damage is buffed but a continuously micro'd tankivac still has infinitely more value in that situation.
