yeah seriously. OP was talking about better static defense like the MIGHTY MISSLE TURRET.
i’d love to see him defend his main with a missle turret haha. oh the grass is always greener isnt it
This entire thread is about mines being broken. And you havent thought about making mines versus ground yet?
Maybe you can ask KingCobra about that. He usually lifts and kills Mines and later hunts and incinerates the Medevac. The rest each M/GM terran knows.
Ends in tears.
ling run bys take 3 apm. half to natural half to main, but it takes a crap load of effort to clean up if youre not prepared. whats your point? thats not how balance works you lazy toss.

Thats a clear case of… Not enough mines not in the right position. If you see your opponent going phoenixes (wich you should have seen) Why do you attack into him? Why are you not expanding for free?

Thanks for this. Really, thanks. Because you just said the magic word. “unprepared” If you dont prepare versus mines, you basically autoloss when they hit lol.
Lets face some more facts here, Cost for cost, how many lings are we talking? 40? cuz that means he killed 20 of his own drones. Next part what you said is ‘clean up’ You can actually recover from being ling flooded if you handle it well.
You cannot recover from 20+ probes dying to mines early game.
2 Supply is a bit to much for each base its a weaker queen
Do you play terran? Just make 10+ CC’s lategame and kill all your non-gas SCV. easy 50 free supply in mules.
I mean if we are talking about supply we are talking about maxing out right? Or is this an issue with your macro not being able to keep up with building supply depots?
Usually because terrans at M1/GM level up to 6000MMR are rather dullards and fooled by Phoenixes think a good idea to attack and are warmly greeted by a Collo and Disruptors.
If they try to expand into third, Cobra expands in fourth and fifth.
No matter what the poor dunces do, there is no escape from the pesky Phoenixes that if need be kill even the Liberators while 6-8 Disruptors keep M-M-Ghost at arms length.
I feel sorry for all those poor terrans that have the bad luck to encounter him on Ladder.
If a protoss is double expanding and has both collosi disruptor and a healthy amount of phoenixes. You can always take out both of those expansions for free with your main army.
Phoenixes cost allot of resources. Mines dont. Both collosi and disruptor are terrible vs marauder based armies if there is nothing to actually tank. And there wont be anything to tank if he has 2 expansions going up. Just scout them.
And if you do as i am stating, making more then 3 mines but actually commit heavily into them. Phoenixes will literally stack and blow up before they can even lift them all.
IF he has 1 phoenix, you should have 2 mines. And you have some extra resources left.
if he has 2 you should have 4 mines and some resources left. etc.
Phoenixes dont trade well vs mines at all unless you stop building mines. Phoenixes dont do anything versus most terran compositions, they only deny drops. and make protoss backbone army a whole lot weaker. Missile turrets around your siege lines and you basically already won.
There is no need for wasting supply for mines in the late game . Rather than killing all these scvs I could be more cost efficint + supply to spam the map with planetary and zone the opponent but still is as stupid as your proposed :
Like at that point if I am able to free up supply and get many cc´s I just get a big standing army and Mana mules the (_____) outa enemy Mineral lines
No. Once you max as terran, you should instantly start maxing orbitals. Use your army for defense instead of offense.
I know you terrans dont know howto be patient. Yall are triggerhappy hillbillies after all. But you can actually use liberator tank mine to zone your opponent out. Keep tabs on his army and advance your siege line where his army isnt at. And expand that way.
I never said I yeet my army in the offensiv I said : a standing army and Mana mule him I dint mention running into the enemy because then im about to lose because the other races are faster in remaxing theyre army but whatever you say you bronze 1 spydo GM

I seriously didnt comprehend what you said in this post at all. Can you try again?
I literally always all of the time just put three stalked in the base at the highground and when the ship trys to land in base it just literally dies before it can even put down the guys. Literaly everytime this works. Everytime. Serious try it 3 stalked in the base so the ship cant fly in without dieing.
If you are in the lands and your fanatic is getting killed by the underground dudes too much then try and make the big robot, or use the fake units to trick the mine into shooting already, but if you get took by unknowingly then you have brought shame to your family.
I guess you mean Zealots. It’s a word used for fanatic warriors in Judea 2000 years ago. Starcraft is full of those names. Immortals were the Persian Elite Imperial Guards…
I don’t know. Hollywood is known for BS’ing history and inventing things. I am speaking strictly from the historic point of view.
I guess it happens because those squatters (USA) have not more than 250 year history when other nations have several millenia.
