Go **** yourself, every Terran who has ever thought this was a good idea.

Spoiler:
I still lost some awful games tonight though and am confirmed terrible and shouldn't be diamond. My presence of mind vs Protoss is just completely nonexistent. Dude masses more and more colossi and I don't think to put down a spire to get corruptors until he has like 7 and it's too late. Some dude hits me with an all-zealot 7 or 8 gate all in at like 9 minutes and I've been so zoned in on making lings since I scouted 4 gates at 5 minutes that I don't ever put down a roach warren which would have held easily, so I just die to 20 zealots. I hold an immortal sentry all in (he shows up, sees my army's size, and turns around) and still let him drag the game out for 20 more minutes, taking a 3rd and 4th, but at least I didn't choke it away. I hold like 4 minutes worth of 3gate zealot pressure easily, taking 0 damage, but never bother scouting his main even when I see a billion zealots back home (hmm, WONDER WHAT HE'S SPENDING GAS ON???), make mutas, run them into 10 phoenixes out of nowhere. Continue on muta/corruptor instead of something more sensible like infestor/hydra and eventually lose everything despite being on like 5 bases vs 3 most of the game.

I am so terrible.

If I see Zerg going gasless and he's doing a bad job dealing with my first reaper, I'll often queue up a third one. It's either that or get a third CC and double ebays...or were you saying it's objectively worse compared to going hellions into the same thing?

even 3 seems like a pretty big investment. wont 2 queens be at each base by the time 4th hits? if you can snipe one, maybe then its worth it, but otherwise doesnt seem good at all.

maybe too many people watching bomber kill a queen with 2 reapers over and over

It's more like I can get Zerg to way over make lings and I can also deny their third

This is relatively moot because I go reaper hellion or reaper hellion banshee every game, But I don't think it's objectively bad against opponents that panic when they see three reapers

If he legitimately has seven colossi and you don't have hive tech, what were you doing for the 5 minutes he was sitting in his base?

seems like they have pretty clear diminishing returns if you don't go with a critical mass tho, so 3 maybe, but 4 just seems like a waste (and i was more saying hes bad for not making anything but reapers). they'll either be able to hold with queens, or lose enough to lose the game, and if thats the case, you prob weren't gonna lose the game anyway.

I actually did have hive and 3/3 I think, but expecting me to remember that vipers are a unit that exists in this game is again beyond the brain capacity that I have available for playing ZvP. I don't remember the whole game but I was denying his 3rd for awhile (until he got too many colossi for me to be able to attack anymore) and going up to 5 bases myself.

Thinking about it this morning even making corruptors was ******ed. I killed the colossi and then had a fleet of air units that were doing **** all and obviously he's not making more colossi after I mass up enough corruptors to kill all the ones he had. If I make mutas instead I might even win the game.

Yeah I had a muta game in there, they flew right into mass stargate play.

Balance patch coming on 2/28:

- mship core vision decreased from 14 to 9 (thank god)
- hydra attack speed buff (so ~+10% dps, thank god)
- widow mine buff vs protoss shields (zero ****s given)

was saying that in jest mostly

What was his support? This is one of those cases where I might recommend either broods or ultras.

Whenever my econ is ridiculously ahead of protoss I just get greater spire, make about 30 Corruptors for collosus killing, then just make like 10 broodlords and go win. **** trying to micro vipers and **** vs that many.

He had blink stalker tech but I had whittled down the gateway units a lot to the point that he was basically entirely on colossi. Once the colossi died he just went pure blink stalker and my economy was dead enough that I couldn't make enough roaches to keep up. Had I made mutas instead of corruptors though it's possible I could have counterattacked and killed enough workers to keep him from getting enough stalkers to take on my mutas.

both broodlord infestor and ultra infestor seem like they would roll those armies

STARCRAFT MAP SPORCLE ZOMG

lmk if there are other maps I should add, I feel like I'm light on maps in between the awful-WoL-beta-maps era and the Daybreak-CK era in particular.
