You're losing to 18 Zealots after an engagement?

You're losing ghosts? Why? The reason people 'control suck' is because they send their ghosts in first to die to colossus and like hailmaryEMP in desperation which isn't what you're supposed to do. You should engage and kite/emp so storms and colossus damage is mitigated, your vikings attk the whole time and once the zealots are dead you just stim 1a the rest of the army and it's face roll.

Or if you're feeling frisky and really want that free win u just scan and shift click the observers with ur vikings then cloak+emp 1ta ezpz

Late game TvP is so simple because you should never lose engagements. I've played a TON of TvP's and even when my control is bad, I still win because 8 base with PF's all over with building upgrades and constant ghost/viking production. You literally should never lose if the game gets to that point.

shift clicking observers that are over a protoss base (often following colossus) is easy right?

I remember boxer getting a pimpest play spot because he was able to blind several observers with medivacs and use wraiths to kill carriers in BW





why was it a pimpest play when it's so easy? Blind has a similar range to the viking in SC2

Edit: The reason ghosts are in front is because you need to hit EMPs before he storms ... else your shit dies



"not losing" is also not the same as "winning" ... obviously

thats a complaint based on the fact that they were suppose to make this game fun and let units have strong abilities, but then nerfed everything to shit and let zerg have their stong ability.

honestly it's hard to deny that terran is harder to play when against a toss..

you really have to have some micro mastery of the terran race to contest an equally skilled protoss.



at the same time, terran has serious advantage at some points in the game, and it's your job to control the map and slow down the toss until the late game.


emp storms and it's gg, but that ain't easy ^^

Not even.

The protoss does not have to be near you in skill to play at the same level.

Protoss is just that much better.
