How to counter vipers as terran?

Good point, He seems to get Up-votes from friends, because his post doesn’t make sense. it’s bad / trolling.

Amoving hellbat/thor and sieging tanks is indeed so hard, terran can’t add vikings with the composition… Better create the 98979575657th whine posts coming from a terran, while explaining how they can’t do any effort to adapt : THE BALANCE OF THE GAME MUST ADAPT TO MAKE THEM WIN, NOT THE CONTRARY

At most they have the hardest macro. Their micro is literally A-moving deathballs, while casting OP spells with ctrl-group 2.

  1. Vikings suck. They get obliterated by all manners of splash.
  2. I was in this thread discussing how to actually beat Vipers
  1. Everyone with both eyes and a brain realizes Terran has the hardest micro. For some reason, Zerg players can see someone a click and throw out a few blinding clouds and just be all, “amazing! such micro!” While seeing a player create a wall of Marauders, split behind it, target fire with tanks, and even have a drop going on the other side of the map and just think “ez!” to themselves.

Vikings are good vs Protoss and other Terran. Against Zerg, you will have to get Liberators (their AA is decent, specially vs the swarmy Zerg), or Battlecruisers.

I just think that Abduct should not work on massive ground targets, at least. Thors should humiliate Vipers, and be countered by Infestor Neural instead.

Maybe group micro (splits, siegeing, mine burrowing…), but Protoss definitely has more spell micro.

Not even that, really. They have the highest APM requirements (but the easiest APM to achieve), the easiest positioning, the easiest micro, about medium macro, but generally the highest game knowledge requirements (outside of TVT).

Zerg positioning and micro!

Hahahahaha!
You tell the best jokes, man!

Oooo oooo thats me. Yea how about make marines? They shoot up you know and only cost minerals.

Vipers are impossible to control well. Just accept sometimes your stuff is going to die to the expensive harmless positioning units. And turn the whine box down.

Hahahahahahahahahaha!

You’re serious?

Terran has no micro at all. Pressing stim occasionally is not micro.

Picking off individual sh*t bits without having your entire squishy-@ss army die, now that’s micro.

Please find one pro player who agrees that Zerg has harder micro than Terran. I will accept even a Zerg pro players opinion…

Yup. :slight_smile: They come really late in the game, you have to charge them up one moments inattention and they’re dead.

If the game runs that late and you screwed around that long you’re supposed to lose that’s just how the game works.

I will trade you your Vipers, for my Mothership, the Carriers, and the High Templar.

Viper is at the same Tier as all lategame Air, and brutally hardcounters all Air and Ground at the same time.
Zerg is also the race that floats around the most resources. You never have trouble teching up to lategame units, as Zerg.

I’m not a pro player and neither are you therefore our opinions are invalid. L2P. Pros don’t complain about vipers

Yeah… I’m not sure why Zerg seems to produce so many doofuses. No nuance (my race is harder cuz I said so!), no eyes apparently, nothing constructive to add to the conversation.

Like right here we another freaking Zerg. A platinum player. Talking about how he understands the game better than every pro.

I wasn’t complaining about them, either.

You would regret that, the very first game you would go against Protoss with Vipers.

Hi Platt low diamond whatever you’re playing the league card could you be more of a stereotype?
