Why Terran needs to be handicapped even on the smallest things? Why Supply Depots need to take 3s more to build compared to Pylons/Overlords for no reason?
Hey Blizzard devs, how about doing some work and fixing that?

Never. Different races are different. Why SCV have 45HP whereas Probes have 40HP?
You want equality? How about making Zealots cost as much as a marine?

well thats a strawman. not saying i agree with op but thats a bad argument.
On top of that you do not even use Control Groups. The fact that you with those handicaps (geting supply-blocked and controling your army with…mouse) are able to be in M2, is proof that you play the eazy-mode race.
A protoss with those handicaps can’t even get to Platinum 3.
PikaChu confessed and was body-bagged again…

and i am currently in f2 rehab, working to stop my f2 addiction.

You can do a one-way trip to Goba Facility. There are specialized personnel (Hydras and DarkTemplars) that deal with Terrans like you.
A couple of days there (in the cell Nr. 23546) and you will forget not only the F2 but even your name.
Dr. Goba has accepted to meet you in person.
how do i get body bagged more than once, this is probably the 100th time i have been “body bagged”

The fact is that you are a very sneaky and oily character. Once we body-bag you, you find the way to escape…

Ahah nice one.
Scv is the most exposed worker while he build something, don’t seems illogical to me. Zealot is not the same than a marine, supply depot is pretty much the same. I don’t really care about 3 sec but if the reason was the 3 rax reaper yea it’s not relevant anymore.
Never, because there is nothing to fix. It’s like protoss saying when they will fix the pylons to be able to go underground. You guys srly don’t stop to whine for everything.

There is a CLEAR reason SCVs have more health than Probes and Drones but Supply Depots do not.
Oh rly? There is no reason? I think the developers were just playing bingo by picking build times then. It makes sense now.

agree is a bad argument make marine, like ling and zealot only ground attack, no gta.
and if it has to be the same then melee too.
because then you can take the 3 seconds away from Depo because then bunker rush is not so dangerous anymore.
Maybe because they want the rax to be finished at some point and not earlier. I guess if the depot construction time upset you, they can lower it 3s and add those 3s to the rax time.

hmm, wouldn’t mind it. its a quality of life change that won’t do anything to break game balance.
It’s a relic from the past when they try to deal with X-Y interaction by nerfing X, and then eventually buffing Y, and then forgetting to buff X back so the balance tilts in a different direction.
There are plenty of examples out there and it does suck.

How about give to marine the same HP as much as Zealot ? And a dash to escape ?
No, depots 3s build time more than pylon and overlord is stupid now because Zerg learn to scout with a drone early game to scout proxy like terran and protoss do since 10 years.
Different races are different. My equating zealot with marines was a way to show you the stupidity of asking equality across 3 races.
If you really think i asked for Zealots to cost 50 minerals than it is something very wrong with you.
There is actually a logical reason behind this, SCVs are vulnerable while building, they used to have 60 health but they were too tanky during all ins, so blizzard had to nerf them.
There is no logical reason for a depot building slower, if anything they should build faster because it requires an SCV to be present and is vulnerable during the building. Its little things like this that lead to the current economic disparities we’ve been seeing with the game being faster with LOV.
