balance is tricky to regulate tho. a nerf on terran and everyone will be crying over protos. wouldnt take much to push them to top. marauder and MULES are the issues i think * EMP also i guess * but try playing terran w/o them lol GL

Small and well-thought out changes are the way to go. Hopefully they don't completely flip balance upside down like ES and RE do frequently. Thats all I can say. Still, it is frustrating that even at gold league every Terran I hit just goes MMM all day long.

yeah MMM is a nasty combo no matter what race u are. need air bad but as zerg that isnt all too effective i dont think. i would like to know the reasoning behind hydra and muta vespene cost. in broodwar hydra only 75 mineral 25 gas with no lair teching required

stim and siege tanks are too strong, and all the maps favour terran, that's why people say terran is so strong :-P

im not sure id go that far, but the fact that on almost every single map the player starts out on high ground with a small choke point certainly seems to favor terran.
terran can easily wall up and turtle on every single map; some would argue that terran are balanced around being able to wall up and turtle, but zerg have to fast expand in order to be really successful and not every map allows them to do so safely.

Its funny if you ask ppl what is imba about terran you hear lots of things. I have read about
-Scans
-wall-in
-marauder
-stim
-slow upgrade on marauder
-MMM
-siege tanks
-reaper
-thor
-EMP
-the maps
It looks like every unique aspect of Terran is imba?

Thought some guys who left tad because of the bad balance told me sc2 had this 'perfect balance'

SC2, upon release, is already more balanced than AoE, TWC, or TAD ever were.
