Thor way OP! Needs Nerf!

Thor is still WAY OP! I had like 15 immortal, zealots, VR, temp, DT everything to counter THor, and it killed everything and still had like 7 thors left. WAY OP! Who thought this was fair?

I tried the same thing and created a thread about Thor hellbat comp. The best I’ve gotten is disruptors. Which basically means protoss has to micro perfectly or be left with useless units that die after one shot and Terran gets to a-move over you. Honestly by the time you shoot one purification nova the thors have closed the distance and are in range of your lame duck disruptor

last time i checked thors prioritize air units above ground so i also would like to see a replay since i highly doubt he fielded 90 supp in thors like i did in unit tester … got ravaged by 5rays 5 tempests 5 immos 14 lots no upgrades whatsoever

meaning there is something else interfering, terrain issues comes to mind or terran unit comp besides thors, upgrades on both sides ect

Sounds kinda silly that he had Thor and after he killed all your stuff he had 7 Thors left. Where did 6 additional Thors came from? Maybe you missed initial number of his Thors?

Not a single collossus?

Immortals with 6 range. You have 15 of them and not a single one can outrange or at least match the range of a thor…

Lemme guess. You’re probably high diamond or something close. Am I right? Huh, am I right?

I’m gold league. I think you would learn a lot from me.

Warp-in thors.

For the topic, immortals and disruptors can work on them.

I might even ask a protoss player to ser how pre-split voidrays fare against them.

7k games, 4ever plat, sure Thor is broken lmao .

wow you actually have to micro? thats too scary ik select all army A-moving is better.

If i Knew how I would

How do you micro to victory in this scenario?

Thats right! I also played a game where enemy had 4 Thors and I was just dancing around him without attacking with my army and I lost every single kind of unit I was able to make… And he still had 8 Thors left!

Thors outrange collossus, in fact Thor outrange both long range Protoss units (Collossus and Tempest) with high impact mode.

Thors make colossi EVAPORATE. One of the most broken interactions in all of the game. It’s absolutely a joke. The colossus is considered an air unit and the thor has 11 anti air range. Saying it is broken is the ultimate understatement.

The only unit you’re allowed to make against thors is disruptors. You can literally only make disruptors. You’re just supposed to make a million disruptors and pray. Pray you still don’t lose to thors and pray the guy doesn’t make tanks or any air units.

Of you lose battle between Thor and Immortal, you should reconsider game you play. Immortal is the reason Thor isnt used much in TvP. Its as hard counter as hard counters get.

Pre-split Void Rays won’t work very well because Void Rays have an unusual tendency to clump up more than any other air unit. You can spread your Void Rays quite far from one another and they will still often converge into a single point very quickly; so there is a critical mass where Void Rays simply cannot beat Thors with Javelin Missiles anymore.

Thor role should be clarified. You can’t have a unit that has a lot of HP, and some armor (which is good vs ground light units), with a high dmg per attack, and a fast attack speed ( which is good vs armored units), that can do slash vs air units (which is good vs light air), and also can aslo use high impact that is good vs armored air units, and air T3…

Yep. It’s amazing how some units in this game get to “do it all” whereas other units aren’t even allowed to be okay at ANYTHING. The liberator was the own every unit in the game and be the best harass unit in the game. The swiss army knife that could do everything.

Then the BC had to be the ultimate unit in the game, and be better at harassing than any Toss unit. A freaking capital ship… gotta make sure it excels at harassment more than the oracle.

Now the Thor “needs” to be able to own everything in the game via a-moving. The tempest isn’t even allowed to be as good at its ONLY mythical role as other units are in their auxiliary roles.

The liberator is a better anti air unit and better at harassing than the tempest is at anything. It makes zero sense for all of the cheap units to be way better at their “4th best purpose” than the tempest is at its only role.

It’s like… no one is this stupid… so like try to at least fix it? I just flat out don’t get it. When did Terran become synonymous with “all of our units should be 50x more useful than the best Toss unit”? We need to give monkeys more credit, because they’re smarter than this.
