Terran and Protoss have caught up on the proper ways to combat zergs and there will be an era now where zerg will struggle very hard. If it'll be patched or if zergs find a different way to play remains to be seen. I do feel like maps and not the races themselves are more important in the balance discussion at this point. The game itself is pretty damn balanced. | ||

When zerg was buffed 2 patches ago he said he cant see losing a game to terran and that he wont have trouble with any protoss. 1 patch comes through where they actually nerf terran a little bit and now suddenly out of no where zerg cant win any game ever Terrans hadn't figured out these abusive builds back then e: actually you don't even have to use them | ||

This constant whining of zerg being too weak is not going to change anything, if he keeps thinking his race is weak then that's not going to make him win more. As a master league random/protoss player I admit say that it can be frustrating to play zerg on small maps, but the main reason so few protoss and zerg make it to Ro8 or Ro4 is because they are underrepresented. When the game was very new terran was a lot stronger, you can say op, because people did not know how to deal with them. Everyone picked terran and now we have an overdose of GSL terran players. The balance changes that were made help to even things out, and people found out new strategies. The game is a lot more fair than before and it's going in the right direction. If only guys like idra (and everyone else who whines about balance) stops whining and starts thinking of new ways to win then the situation might improve more. Look at fruitdealer and nestea, look at mc. They did things differently and won GSL's. But Fruitdealer and Nestea are whining a lot too. And you are dead wrong if you think a player of the caliber of IdrA doesnt think of "new ways" to win. I have a big problem with no-names whining and not trying to improve their plays, but progamers of that caliber know what they are talking about, you shouldnt question them this much. | ||
