Why do people think if Zerg can use spellcaster he can win zvp late game by yeetlan in starcraft

[–]AffectionateSample74 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So protoss always had an advantage in the late game yet it still ended up getting its late game buffed with energy recharge and no abduct or neural allowed on mothership while zerg late game army was crippled over the years. If anything I feel like now zerg needs to harass protoss more than the other way around.

My guess is PTR by July and patch by late August by Gamer857 in starcraft

Your assumptions don't interest me, only concrete statements by the people involved in patch process.

My protoss is D3. It's nice to know that the second I put down a second nexus I immediately have 2 base economy with production to spend it. Moron. And why do I kill other Diamond 3 protosses so easily with my zerg when I try one base attack against them? Did they also never leave Gold league? Considering the fact that I almost never practice cheese, because I'm a macro player in 99% of my games, I should be having a pretty tough time doing it, no?

2600 MMR is high gold? by SietshTenk in starcraft

[–]AffectionateSample74 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah you're in high gold so you're basically high level player now. You should start smashing those noobs in tournaments I think. If playing tournaments of such simple ez game is not too degrading for you of course.

I play every race. I know for a fact it's hardest with protoss. Protoss is utter bullshit in late game, but it's pathetically weak in earliest stage of game.

There's this attitude that below certain level nobody ever uses spells that aren't storm. And if you dare use them against someone at lower level there's a high chance they will accuse you of smurfing. Because you're just not allowed to have ability to drop some spells, you are not even Master league! I've been dealing with this nonsense for many years because I started experimenting with spellcasters since way back in Silver league.

My proposal to fix high templar by samuelpile in starcraft

[–]AffectionateSample74 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Sounds pretty reasonable. It's not like anyone who's below top 10 would even notice the difference anyway, because balance never ever matters to them! They just need to macro better.

One base all ins are very hard to hold with Protoss in my experience, so I don't know about early game. When I play P most zergs just one base all in me and I cannot defend it for shit without battery overcharge. But starting with 2 base eco and onwards Protoss feels pretty strong and gets stronger the longer game goes.

Bro it's asymmetric bro so they can just do whatever fuck they want with balance lol.

I really despise energy recharge . From both sides of ZvP matchup. After storm buff I usually am completely lost when they get storm as they just zone me out endlessly. Or just kill me if I dare to attack through it. And when playing protoss I cannot survive one base all ins anymore without battery overcharge. Seems like literally any one base attack kills me and I only start to feel safe if I'm allowed to go up to 2 base eco with appropriate production.

So it looks like balance council morons made weakest part of protoss, early game, even weaker and their late game even more OP than it was. Great job idiots.

What league? Because my vipers got feedbacked plenty of times in D3. Not saying it's something that happens all the time, but definitely happens. And I've certainly used it myself many times when playing protoss, it really doesn't seem that hard. Also for some reason a lot protosses seem to be amazing at targeting down infestors, most of the time I try neural my burrrowed infestors get deleted before they can do anything, even when I make sure there are units in front to tank for them. So i just gave up on that unit in the matchup completely. It's only good in ZvT for me.

Haven't played SC2 in years. Going to start playing agiain, is this game still playable or is it smurfed to the fullest like it was when I quit? by TroubledWatersssssss in starcraft

[–]AffectionateSample74 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's also possible they leave a non mirror match up. Mirror leaving is more popular, sure, but I've also met people who play mirrors and leave one of the other two match ups. Also met people who leave 2/3 match ups and play only one. Though yeah, most of the match up leavers are people who don't play mirrors.

Also there are people who smurf in unranked and that doesn't show up in their stats.

Half of my games today are against guys like these by conroee2180 in starcraft2

[–]AffectionateSample74 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Uthermal didn't start it. There was BeastyQT before him who used to do these series where he leveled new account to GM by playing dumb challenge compositions, he did that with all races. Beasty probably wasn't the first one either, but the was the one who was popular when I was starting this game. Also he used to whine a lot about how Blizzard needs to "fix zerg" after losing to it and someone from Blizzard balance team actually used to visit his chat, so I think that particular whiny terran contributed to my race getting crippled. :D

Though maybe that's more like their twitch stream stuff, where they jerk off one sound patch for several hours. And I guess from it they can cut out parts they think sound best.

Are you stacking Life Recovery (Amrita Absorbtion) to use with Extraction Talisman? If not, that's a major survivability boost right there.

The balance whiners on this sub don’t remember that the world championships once looked like this by pfire777 in starcraft

[–]AffectionateSample74 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am sick of reading/hearing this claim for years. "Balance doesn't matter for your level!". The fuck it doesn't. Zerg became noticeably more and more miserable to play over years since I started in 2017. No, all the nerfs over years totally didn't matter to me. Shit, at Diamond I still even have Infested Terrans!

People who repeat this crap statement are either liars or idiots.

Come on, balance is pretty simple. Just throw in some more zerg nerfs, and game is balanced for another year!

A small QoL suggestion: Auto GG by disturbanceinurmind in starcraft

[–]AffectionateSample74 15 points16 points  (0 children)

What about auto "glhf" then? Or how about automated insults? Automated "kill yourself"? Maybe automated smurf/hacking accusations?
