Yes TL is.

You can see this from most polls that involve small terran tweaks that can be considered nerfs. There is always a big majority of voters against it which does not happen on other races tweak/nerf polls. Just like this turret - ebay change.

Even tho the turret without ebay would probably kill alot of options like burrow movement vs. mech, oracle opening, dt vs mech and certainly a few others, terrans on TL aren't getting tired in explaining how this change reduces options for sc2. In all their badness, they come up with the idea that spores needed evochamber as well then - as if it was compareable at all (spores eat a drone and in the end cost more minerals due to that, do you want this to be equalized as well?).

Additionally, in order to operate them, TL here and then releases some 30 pages of terran balance whine on the main page. Stuff that every user in the forum would have probably gotten banned for. Also if you follow TL-Staff comments, you can see frequent siding for terran. I guess several zerg/protoss users have already stopped commenting for not being blamed to play a noob race.

For the greatest players of all time event, players of all races have been discounted for one or another reason while most terrans were not. Just look at the reasoning for nestea and MC being behind taeja, while the same obviously didn't happen in the comparison between life and mvp. In the view of most TL users and TL itself (according to their recent releases) terran has been the most disadvantaged race throughout the life of SC2 and at the same time produced the most great players of all time. TL and its community enjoys to complain about BL/Infestor all day until now but has forgotten that SC2 was GomTvT for the majority of its time during states of measurable imbalance. I have never seen anyone defending BL/Infestor in a way that terrans here defend their GomTvT era. And the same guys who fighted for 5 rax reaper openings to stay viable back in the days and 1base marauder-scv all-ins being an intelligent and defendable strategy have the leadership in opinion on TL now.

All this is obvious and measurable bias. TL overall is terran biased.


According to the average TL terran user, protoss is a noob race that should be designed around terran only to fit their needs (no way adjustments happen the other way round, then the whining starts again) and zergs should be fine with being limited to muta/bling as long as terran can dominate every matchup with spamming marines/marauder from 10+ rax without being limited by gas at all (which is the limitation for other races dominating units). Every change to this will be replied with pure badness. I will leave with that, but certainly could write more, lol.



Apart from this I actually wanted to say that Thors should now become strong single target anti air units (with the liberator being there), before I saw your post and had to comment on it. I had this idea already like 2 years ago and shared it here at TL. It would fit the role of thors much better I think. Imo they should rather 1 shot a mutalisk with a slow firerate then damage 8 of them by 20% (also regeneration problem gets reduced then). Also terran gets a counter to BL or protoss air which is not vikings then. The thor vs muta mechanic sucks badly considering the differences that can be created with or without the use of magic box and how much a few thors can hardcounter balls of mutas with some lucky shots that barely happen.
