Good morning Anonymous

crossies,

since i know there are alot of SC2 nerds like me around here on crossfire, i thought i could add a little SC2 balance discussion to my morning journal :D

But first a summarization of my weekend... 39° fever, and a bad cold... sleept almost 2 days... gg

So here are the SC2statistics for August:

My opinion about it... well TL.net picture summons it quite nice... Protoss tears.... Q.Q
image: GSLfp

my real opinion... well, since i am a Protoss player i am not really happy about the current situation ofc. Imo Protoss misses a good harrassment unit, you are kinda forced to sit back, defend all the time as Protoss, since you are so immobile... until you have a 200/200 army, or you try some allin timing pushes (like 6,7gates @PvZ or Voidray/Warp-in @PvT etc), this is imo the only way Protoss can win atm... but who am i, i am still way to bad to whine about balance tbh... i still do to much other mistakes that make me lose, then balance would effect me :D ... but seeing so less Protoss players @ GSL also makes me Q.Q (and players like MC and Alicia even dropping out of Code-A!!!)

anyways, have a nice day everyone, feel free to leave your comments :)

Parent

i still remember who i got my SC2 Beta Key from btw !

<3

Parent

in return id like a d3 key please!

Parent

if i would have a d3 beta key, i would not have the time to post something on crossfire ! :D

but tbh, what i seen from streams etc, does not look so promising tbh :(

Parent

u serial ? + its only a demo :)

Parent

tbh i rly liked what i've seen. especially playing monk looks pretty nice ;)

Parent

well you cannot skill by ur own anymore, if you play a Babarian for example, there is no need to play a 2nd one, cause all lvl 60 barbs will be skilled the same way... they kinda made alot of the things like in WoW, which i really dislike :/

Parent

I don't really understand why you would complain about this. If I played a Barbarian and leveled him with a certain skill-set, but fancied a change, I wouldn't want to have to level another barbarian to do that. If you want to level another character so much then there's nothing stopping you, you just don't have much to gain.

I think the amount of variation available with the rune/passive system is enough to keep anyone interested in their class for a long time.

Parent

well in D2 you could have a ww-barb, a frenzy barb or some even a caster barbarian. In D3 you unlock skills when reaching a certain level, you cannot go for any specific skill-tree or something, every level 60 barb has the same skills... and this is imo just plain stupid, cause it lowers the varitys of the characters...

it's all up to runes and items now, which make the difference between the characters... this is ofc nice, but still i would like to have the chance to make 2 completly different skilled Barbarians (for example)

Parent

partly agree - but now you dont have to make ANOTHER barbarian since you already have one.. if it makes sense :)

Parent

Bullshit warp prism and/or dt are amazing harass units

stfu Mr.I-deinstalled-SC2 !

Parent

Parent

oh you :)

... kitchen ... ARRRR i like :D

Parent

;)

Parent

ur cool with the shoutouts

I so much want to see some protos pwning all terrans and zergs on some LAN. Watching TvT is so boring :/ Protoss is like the most enjoyable race to watch

Protoss owned quite a few foreign tournament. The talent-pool of Korean protosses is just incredibly small - especially compared to Terrans. You can look at the history in BroodWar of Korean protosses and it just doesn't look any near as impressive as the Terran one. For example JYP aka Smart aka PoOh in BroodWar is now one of the top Korean protosses...in BroodWar people struggled to even call him a pro.

Parent

not rly incredibly small, look at code A and you got a large amount of tosses usualy going through ro16

Parent

well yeah, this is idd true, in Sc:Bw Protoss was kinda the weakest race with the least title wins at major tournaments etc, so alot of the pros did not pick Protoss as their race when SC2 came out...

Parent

It's not an issue about balance though. Similar to SC2 protoss just isn't as popular - BoxeR (who chose Terran because it was considered the weakest race) was THE idol of every kid (or his rival Yellow) so a lot people who looked up to them chose their race. Protoss has a winning record versus Terran in BroodWar and has a tough time versus Zerg - but even that matchup can't be called imbalanced when someone like Bisu exists whose best matchup is PvZ.

And at a non progamer/very high skill level Protoss (in BroodWar) is the opposite of weak but considered "imbalanced" because it is slighty easier to play with low APM.

Parent

i like your achievements btw <3

Parent

random noname fanboy fakenicking, shhhhhhhhhhhhh

Parent

Poor protoss, guess thats why im losing all the time :'(

cheated immortal on the way bro, just wait...

yes im Pro Toss!

highly representative statistics

well, these are not random ladder statistics, those are only matches from major on- and offline tournaments ("only" 24000games for a period of one year) ... if those matches are not representive...what else?

Parent

depends - define "major" :P

Parent

basically every tournament that is covered by the TLPD... (IEM, dreamhack, MLG, GSL, NASL etc)

Parent

btw ur not random girl seems to have fun^^ did u notice the pink socks? :D

i was more looking for pink underwear... but now that you mention it... yes :D

Parent

:DDDDDDDDDDD hiding!

Parent

as if !

you prolly don't wear any!!!111

Parent

shhh

Parent

;)

Parent

due to the insignificant difference, my claim is that protoss players are simply bad.

u r so mean T_T

Parent

except for you ofc.

Parent

lol @ PvZ korean graph :D

don't you play for myRevenge?

http://solstice-gaming.eu

Parent

yea I meant solstice :p nice :D

Parent

but only in the "B-Team" meanwhile (Team-Leader of it tho...), we are having a A & B Team since about a month or so, A-Team is quite packed with a few 1000+ Masterleague players... while i am quite shitty as you can see from the ranking below ^^

ranking of all members (A & B Teamers):
http://www.sc2ranks.com/c/2357/solstice-gaming/

Parent

seems im playing the right race :D

I know that feel bro :<

getting sick too :<

Parent

yesyes terran op

the fact that nonpro tosses cant multitask at all is not that important!

how about using ht drops?or dts.

not to mention chargelots ":D"

hey hey frozz, ht drops = 15 apm, it's too hard
:D

Parent

obviously its hard since noone is doing it

Parent

what ya talking about?

Parent

zerg all the way.

Parent

There were so much TvT matches in recent tournaments :X
Hopefully patch 1.4 will change Protoss "weakness", Immortals will get buffed (range) isnt it?

Toss ist halt kacke! Spiel lieber wieder ZÖÖRG :D

Parent

zerg 50% win rate, toss 70-75% + rank 1 in my division (again :)

Parent

1.4 is a joke, from a zergs prospective!

Quotelike 6,7gates @PvZ or Voidray/Warp-in @PvT etc

ok bro
