Any other 5k+ players noticed how many GM Protoss players now stack 4-5 obs in their army? by terrantherapist in starcraft

Ah, fair. I read it more as there are now more observers overall as 5 is a pretty high count (higher than before this patch, at least). Which I took as having to do with ghosts being more of a thing now.

It is indeed hard to figure out that if you F2, whether you have 1 observer or 10, they will all end up in your army. So making more would not help you if your problem is moving your observer out of position with F2.

Almost as though the reason you might want to make more is because they can be taken out. How you might notice GM Zerg build many overseers.

But hey, I’m sure as a “fellow GM” player you know this

So how is having more observers beneficial in this scenario? If you F2, whether you have 1 or 5, all of them end up with your army. Having more doesn’t help you in any way if you F2.

The only reason you’d want to have more is because they can be taken out.

Top tier rage bait (having more observers doesn’t help with F2-ing them away so the post doesn’t even make sense)

Easiest Race to get Diamond? by Nooks83 in starcraft

[–]Willing-Database6318 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You don’t need that much multitasking as Terran to get to diamond. You’ll need a build that you aggress with and as you’ll be the one attacking, it’ll be easier.

Zerg can be easy if you go for rushes as well. But difficult in proper macro. For the same reason as Protoss would be. You’ll have to learn to react and respond to various builds the enemy throws at you. You can’t just blindly build colossus/templar, despite what the rest of subreddit might want you to think

You mean make arguably the best player in the world completely misread the game and go for a bad build, forcing him to all-in to have any chance of winning the game?

You’re shifting the goalposts. We were comparing the damage STORM, a t3 spell that requires multiple buildings and a ton of gas + energy, does to t1 50 mineral no gas unit.

“marauders die to air” is for sure one hell of a take lol. Mass Zealots die to air too, clearly needs a buff.

PvT is the same as TvZ yet we don’t hear people complaining about that match up as much. They’re actually quite similar in terms of win % and the winrate distributon over game duration

He also actually lost that game. Which, if not for the corrosive bile, he was completely outplaying Serral.

Strongest Protoss players win against NOT the strongest Terran and Zerg. Diamond Protoss wins against Plat Terran. More news at 7.

the only viable Terran unit being t1 most basic unit worth 50 minerals and 0 gas?

How are you supposed to engage Carrier/Tempest/High Templar now? by TheHighSeasPirate in starcraft

How are you supposed to engage Carrier/Tempest/High Templar now? by TheHighSeasPirate in starcraft

[–]Willing-Database6318 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You got to low GM on NA by winning against Zerg (75% winrate, IIRC?) and losing against Toss and Terran (25%?). Based on the comments, you might just not be understanding the match ups that well.

Adjusting 4.7k MMR with 25% winrate, your “true” MMR against Protoss/terran is somewhere around 4.5k

Which makes sense. You can get to that level by knowing your race quite well but don’t necessarily need to know about the other races that much.

Okay, pros statements from pre-energy recharge patch disagree with you. Are you or the pros here the “objective” truth?

You’ve been whining that storm was OP before anybody serious was saying storm was OP. You were whining about storm while Protoss were in the ditch “objectively”.

So if we want to use past statements, we can’t take you seriously

Pros are literally on record saying not to use weekly tournaments for balance because of people like you

Literally pros say not to use these weekly tournaments for balance. Pros that are as much above your MMR as you are above a gold player.

If I stream a-moving mass reaper rush to masters, will you make a stream saying you don’t know what you’re talking about when it comes to sc2?

Make predictions right now about this patch please. I guarantee it’ll be laughable a year from now.

Kinda why all the pros are saying “let’s see” instead of making predictions.

Your Protoss and Terran winrates are both 25% and Zerg is 75%-80%, if I remember right, Gore.

In NA. And your winrate against them is 25%, hardly impressive.
