well i think it's pretty much the consensus that terran demands a lot more apm and less adaption than protoss' low apm and high adaption (i think chill actually talked about this in liquibition)

Protoss is so imba at mid/low leves =[

if you think its hard killing shitty protosses in tvp you should try killing shitty terrans pvt. even the worst terran player can make me waste an extra 10 min by just sitting with their natural and turtling and not gging while i have the entire map. i mean he doesnt even need 123 apm or any hotkeys all he has to do is build tanks and fuckin siege them and you will waste a good 10 min of my life. i wouldnt even bring this up except it happens all the time and its really annoying

Just had to get that off my chest.
i don't care if i lose to a good player. i actually enjoy both winning AND losing, but maybe im not getting my point across correctly.
here's the scenario that happened after this replay,
"wow, shit 26 min long game. damn, it wasn't easy" "i think i played someone decent" (starts firefox for iccup website, checks the guy's record and flag) "wtf.. barely 50% win ratio at D+, and not a korean" "okay, let me take a look at his match list, hmm,, i admit that hes played a lotta koreans." "let me check the rep on bwchat" (looks at the hotkeys and apm) "WTF... /cry"

You are really stupid. Why a 130 apm protoss has to be bad ? Why ?
Do you know that gurram don't even use hotkeys ? And this guy is on Swe-A -.-

why are you judging someone on their apm and hotkey usage? isn't that a little bit retarded?
it's like, would you be happy if he played exact same skill level but have 200 apm and use all hotkeys? what? who cares?

^ lol it's just that protoss really require less work than terran and zerg. and that's a fact. and that's what makes the race so easy to paly.

fuck wow, if u read my "little" scenario that i posted, i analyzed the rep after i looked at his record, flag, and match list. /sigh
idk what to say. LOL
if it was like fisheye with low apm, i wouldn't have given a fuck, since he was good back then, but is a typical D+ protoss user with 1a2a3a tactic just as good as him?
lol whats wrong with u,, please

awesome. i try to acknowledge other ppl's perspectives as much as i can, while others blindly don't give a fuck and post. very nice.

but the fact is that ONLY 120 apm can easily suffice to contend against 200+ apm terran players. 200 apm of not really spamming that is.
and that is really disappointing. how he can half-ass the game by just doing 1a2a3a and simple macro.
it happens to me to.

where do you get off making these generalizations based off of 2 players?
it's like, for some reason a 120apm protoss with 120eapm is somehow half-assing the game as opposed to a 200apm protoss with 120eapm? really?

thats not how it works on low levels
its 40eapm protoss vs 100eapm terran
on lower levels protoss is substantially easier than terran. We've had this discussion on TL many times, and the majority of people (even protosses) agree with it.

quite fair too, sir. as arbiters can not only cloak units, but easily stasis your army.
HOW AMAZINGLY FAIR

if he was my level, i would be satisfied. why? because he was my level. if i played and lost against kwark, whos supposedly a really good player with low apm, i would not have minded. i'd understand that his mechanics are better than mine.
u still don't get that APM is not the main topic here.

yeah but your forgetting that the 120 apm protoss actually has to think and react to his opponent during the game and cant just sit in his base until he has a certain amount of units then attack
