Imagine only Maru or only Serral would be in the RO12. And second-liners as Creator or Hurricane would be taking the spots of Dark, Rogue, Cure or Clem. There would be riots all over TL and Reddit.
But as it is Protoss, it is their fault. If you select Protoss as race it is because you secretly will be bad when it matters.
But of course, as Lambo insists, nerf carriers "and start from there".
This is killing the joy of SC2 for me... I need someone to cheer for, or I just prefer watching other things, like it sadly will happen this weekend.
My life for Aiur. You got a piece of me, baby. IIIIIIiiiiiii.

Sounds like Protoss could use a few nerfs tbh

Protoss does look pretty pathetic against Zerg. At this point Protoss can be even on army supply with Zerg and somehow still trade badly.

Probably time for Queens to get yet another nerf, they just seem way too hardy and versatile for costing only minerals. The amount of game ending pressure that they can put onto a Protoss player so early on just seems a bit broken.

Thankfully I think the Queen is so versatile and strong that even with a nerf it would probably still be a good unit and there is probably a host of good ways to nerf the unit while still keeping it viable.

-Transfuse nerf
-Armored or light tag added
-Damage or HP nerf

Not sure, but something probably needs to be done via a patch at this point, Protoss just looking anemic. No bite in their ground play anymore and Stargate play looks more or less completely figured out at this point, not sure a meta shift is going to be too helpful.

The saddest thing is that a large portion of the SC2 community still think Protoss needs to be nerfed due to their personal ladder experience even after abysmal results like this.

I dunno man Maru is the ultimate pinnacle of SC2 and Zoun beat him in a Bo3, Im pretty certain that means Protoss is overpowered.

The only hopes are a patch after Katowice and a better set of maps.

Is there any hint that a balance patch is indeed considered? My understanding was that Blizzard does not patch SC2 any more

You think you want patch now but as a protoss fan you actually don't since 100% patch would have just a couple of nerfs for toss because it would be based on a results and meta from first half of 2021 or even late 2020.

Ironic that eventually there will be no more Pro Toss.

Get it? Pro Toss? Protoss? Me neither

Lol; it's one tournament. Yeah, Zest and Trap lost; boohoo. Understand that Zest is going into military, as is Parting and maybe another one or two are leaving as well or something, Idk. Maybe wait and see some other major tourney results before complaining. Keep in mind, there has been a toss in the finals for the last 3 times in a row...

Remember that single super tournament after that toss got nerfed into ground because of one good tourney?
