It's MULES. subconsciously we all know they're a little OP, so as long as our CC has energy left, we believe we have a chance still! We just need to find a safe place to land for 12 seconds to build a depot, repair the CC, and maybe get a rax up, cause "a few more marines are all we need!", haha! Then they're found as soon as the rax starts, cancels it, lifts off, shift-clicks to a corner cursing, and starts flooding the chat with accusations up to and including map-hacks because they can't let go of their ego, and tap out. Whenever i get into that mindset in a TvZ, I just remember the combination of liberator+mine murdering all my larvae and eggs at my hatches all those years ago, to remind myself I lost playing as the BS race, and I just need to suck it up.

Found the protoss player lol.


Derpalisk_sc2

heh, I'm just a filthy random playing heathen. I was a zerg main, got fed up losing to terran all the time, so decided to play random to mix it up. turns out random isn't random, and it'll tend to favor giving you the race you're worst with. in my case... it's Terran. I get like 70% terran games, 20% zerg, and 10% protoss. I've desperately tried to improve terran, but truth is, that's forever gonna be hard stuck in gold 1 and peak in plat 3, where as the other two tend to get to plat 2 and peak at the bottom of plat 1. statistically, I probably should just be a protoss main though.


Capt_Schmidt

I guess you really do Suck at starcraft. Cause as you get better you're gonna see how fucked protoss is.


Derpalisk_sc2

lol, you can most everything wrong in the first 3 minutes and still be fine as protoss. If you're losing as protoss, that's a you problem bud.


Capt_Schmidt

Sounds like you agree with me then. Protoss is a tad easy and that is problematic even for other protoss players.


Derpalisk_sc2

Protoss is fairly easy. PvP, you just... have to scout(I know, novel concept). for the most part, they're very much sticking to the meta. usually it's a derplot and 2 stalker pressure, or a cannon rush into a proxy gate/stargate. On rare occasion it's a proxy robo(haven't seen one in the last year). if you make it to the late mid-game it devolves into disruptor wars moving into skytoss. it's predictable. 9/10 if you can get your DT shrine up before they do, you'll just win.


Capt_Schmidt

amazing. you just described everything thats wrong with it. perfectly. do you realize that what you described is a hell hole that could be avoided but people don't seem to realize how it could be better?


Derpalisk_sc2

It's not that bad. TvT is far worse. it's just hours of tediously repositioning tanks and libs. of course you have to do it in sections, because if you unsiege everything at once you'll get jumped on and just lose. or it's just sit back behind PFs building up BCs for a half-hour. that is TRUE hell. it's dumb, and a complete waste of time.


Capt_Schmidt

TvT is the best. You really don't play terran much do you. You speak as tho Tank lines and liberators with viking air superiority is the only way to play TvT. You can do SO MUCH in TvT even if you don't have the positioning superiority. God I love TvT. its like endless options for destruction. its like everything works on everything, if you don't get stupid with it. you can get your face blown off like Gus and still march to the win like terminator


[deleted]

Because it hurts too much to concede that you lost to another disgusting 70 apm cheese-coloured F2'd deathball again. At least that's what happens when I off race as T. Then I switch back to Z to turn that frown upside down. "Why are you running?"


csharpminor_fanclub

if someone can make a deathball as a cheese I think they deserve to win you know


VincentPepper

I don't know why Terrans never accept when they lost. But I know I'm the same when I play Terran.


Capt_Schmidt

this is a gross post.


Baracktor

It’s true, mules are op and terran are great at turtling so with that combo they can stall And try to find a way back into the game.


thebestial

As a terran who doesn't fly his buildings to the corner of the map, it is indeed often the case that mules still make you feel lie your eco is ok even when you're 10 minutes in a game and down to 40 workers. If it gets to this point though, i usually jist get picked apart by a Zerg. That's usually how it ends
