From a purely economical standpoint, you might as well just send the excess.

If you played zerg I could understand sending more for defensive purposes vs T for example. Plus it's a bit trickier because you don't necessarily produce workers at the same rate per hatch. So you could potentially end up worse off, it's not clear to me off the top of my head.

But for P/T, I can't see a reason to split evenly. This is actually good cause I was wondering about this a long time ago and I had been meaning to sit down and think about it.

examples of losing to really dumb, inviable strategies is not evidence of imbalance.

Terran is fun just because there are so many ways you can play it

I transfer 6 or 7 to my nat for purely defensive purposes against both T and P.

PS cwar I'm not seeing the brag in your statement

Yes having lots of builds is very nice, I feel like I pretty much dictate the action rather than having to react. Its nice to beat people that Im better than instead of going 50/50 too. Pretty much all my OP suspicions about T are being confirmed.

It's finally warm and sunny here in Michigan. Sure makes playing video games a lot less appealing.

i transfer about half my probes and then just have each nexus rallied to its own natural resources. maybe i should cut it down though.

And I thought terran was meant to be the defensive race.

Terran is just a silly race with all kinds of small OP advantages. Like today I went 6 rax mass marine in a team game, ended up losing all of my SCVs to a huge ling run-by, and yet I was still able to keep a reasonable number of marines pumping with just MULEs.

Yes theres so many small things. One things that huge for me is being able to build your CC somewhere safe before you expo so much easier to macro safely where as any time you expand as toss its a huge liability.

or you have free scans whenever you want, thus nullifying any cloaked units or the difficulty of scouting!

LOL so true.

Im happy to report that there is no noticeable drop off in wins (maybe a slight increase) despite playing terran much worse than I play toss. So ridic
