Minor balance changes to SC1 reveal that D2 is missing an archetype and that SC is more of a role playing game

I recently envisioned what I call the true Diablo 2 trinity of roles and I have it expressed as follows…

Barbarian: The Extreme Tank(Ranged)
Sea Witch: The Extreme Cannon(Melee)
Bowazon/Valkyrie: The Extreme Flanker(Ranged/Melee of Speed)

And my follow up realization is that the prior can be aligned with the basic warrior units and workers of Starcraft in the same manner…

Zealot: Tank(ranged)
Zergling: Cannon(melee)
Marine/SCV: Extreme Flankers(ranged and melee)

Now do you see the comparative difference and the issue?

There’s no extreme melee cannon(drones)

and no extreme ranged(probes)

Which would balance out with Terran’s extreme cannon ranged(marine) and extreme tank melee(SCV)

Conclusion: Therefore, this means that merely some minor, proper and necessary balance changes to Starcraft reveal that Starcraft as strictly a Real Time Strategy Game, has more role diversity than Diablo 2 as the king of aRPGs!!!

All of this can be revealed in just one image.

And not only is D2 missing an archetype, but missing an archetype from the primary trinity of roles itself!

This person has been posting garbage like this for years now. Some sort of obsession with the game that is beyond the ability for anyone to comprehend. I don’t even think going outside and touching grass would help at this point.

Next time, just flag as spam and move on. If the original post is flagged enough to be hidden before there are any replies, the thread will automatically be delisted from showing in the forum thread listing.

Now the only way it can be taken down is by a moderator.

Just go away already with these nonsense topics, for love of god.

Keep in mind that the reason why I said that the drone would fill the niche of “extreme cannon” is because the probe with a necessary niche of “extreme ranged” is understandable, just attack at a longer range than the logical expectation.

So if I were to have said that the drone needs an “extreme melee” capability, what the hell am I saying exactly?

Maybe what I really mean to say, instead of drones that do more damage than the logical expectation, is that there’s some way to fulfill the very concept of the “extreme melee” and we just haven’t thought about it…

What if drones could get so close to enemy units that they enter into their bodies like a parasite. There might be some speed edges for drones and probes in this as well considering that the flanker role needs it’s own niche outside of tank and cannon…

you are correct about everything and they are coming

Well I guess we’ll be going on adventure to find out if “the most evil people use the best possible ideas to the worst possible ends” -Jordan Peterson, is ultimately true or false, an intention or an accident.

And maybe also if we have an improved and uncencored freedom of speech like we’ve been promised.

I’ve probably been posting on the Blizzard forums for 20 years, and there’s no reason for me to stop anytime soon.

My aliases were Atlas_MeCH, SivarTyeltra, Da_best, and maybe more that others can jog my memory of.

One more point though. The Sorceress, Valkyrie and Assassin clearly make up the prime/pure identities in the hero circle, which ends up forming a square shape where one of the identities is apparently like a non viable void note in a similar way that magenta is not part of the visible color spectrum.

The Sorceress aspects are light, ranged, and highly offensive elemental output mage
The Valkyrie with a dueling shield is the opposite; heavy, melee, and high physical defense warrior
The Assassin corresponds with the Valkyrie as the heavy, melee, high elemental resist warrior
And then the “void identity” doesn’t work which would complete the square shape because a physical damage mage just doesn’t make any sense.

Anyway, what I honestly should do at this point is retire from video-games and get into quantum physics to try and take on the opportunity for developing a legitimate scientific theory for de sitter space since anti-dissiter space and string theory have failed.

And if I or anyone else for that matter ends up making some progress or having some success, it better not be comparable in any way, shape or form to the design philopsophies of these games which favorably or even infavorably tease the potential for a complete and established trinitarian diversity.

It should also be mentioned that I’ve filled a lead physical labor role at my previous 2 places of employment for the last 12 plus years of the employment. And I was one of the best employees for that time. Then I was wrongfully fired. So I’ve been used to work hard, and then wrongfully tossed aside in my older age, and for what reason? For nothing other than exercising my freedom of speech on social media which made some fellow employees feel awkward enough about me to throw me under the bus.

You want to come after me when I’ve pointed out how my situation can accurately be perceived from each end? You go right ahead…

Dude…we feel awkward about you and we don’t even work daily besides you…Can’t even imagine what you put those guys through. I can only imagine the topics you were raising during lunch breaks…

You really give contradictory vibes, on one hand you sound like a deranged individual in dire need of medical help, on the other hand you seem the biggest troll with lots of free time.

Take care…seek help…whatever, just stop tormenting us with your world salads. Peace.
