Blink all-in is pretty strong because of the earlier timing with vision, but the only way to nerf it is to drastically scale back msc's range. Don't see that happening, maybe by 1-3 and also add another 15-20 seconds to blink upgrade time to help get the timing back closer to wol. When I'm playing PvT I only blink stalker all-in to punish extra greedy terrans(there's quite a few of them). I usually macro behind it as well. Not every toss plays like maxblack.Terran is used to getting away with earlier CCs because toss is forced to open gate cyber and 1 zealot(can cancel) before nexus. With earlier timings in blink and oracle it forces terran to be more modest. If a protoss opens nexus first, or gate nexus, terran will just allin. From a random players perspective I still think blink timing is a little strong. It's also really easy to execute in any league. Regardless though winrates are pretty even across the board.
Blizzard doesn't seem willing to help protoss by nerfing swarm hosts either. They're suggesting increasing the damage slightly for tempest vs buildings, like having 4 tempest instead of 5 to 1 hit kill a spore is going to make the difference. SH pretty OP late game. Toss struggles against late game zerg, terran struggles against toss for a 2 minute window, and the win rates are hardly off enough to notice. Big deal. life isn't perfect, I guess that's a harsh reality for some folks.
In terms of apm/ skill requirement, terran definitely takes a bit more skill than protoss. The reason for that is because of the way the game was designed. Protoss is supposed to have expensive, powerful, less mobile units that are stronger in a straight up engagement. Terran is supposed to have cheap, low HP, high DPS units that accel in harass and manipulating opponents army movement. Terran has amazing late game economy with orbital/pf and doesn't depend on gas to make game ending units, protoss vice versa. Terran requires the skill to outplay their protoss opponent. The tools are there, you just have to use them. It's so annoying listening to avilo, painuser etc whine about these basic game designs while ignoring the strong points of their own race. I have avilo's stream open as I type this, he's screaming and crying THIS GAME DOESNT MAKE ANY FKCING SSNSE WHAT THE FK HOLY SHIT OMG.. seriously what a little bitch. I guess you can call me a sadist cuz terran tears are pretty entertaining.

you are gold level and stupid as fuck
stay irrelevant.
I'm a random player and I've always played in diamond, cool story though. You seem like an angry individual. I played against coL.Midday last week on his plat warm-up smurf. I got rekt. He must be a shitty player though because he's got a plat account. Middle leagues are skill relevant as fuck yo! I shouldn't use sarcasm, not sure if you'd get it being how mad you are. If I played one race I'd be consistently masters, but then I'd be bored and mad as fuck at the game like you are. I prefer to enjoy myself on a video game that I play in my spare time for recreation. Good luck going pro with your stream, I don't need l337 nerd props of being a masters level streamer with a whopping 7 viewers. I will keep enjoying the game from all perspectives.
"stay mad." bro
I find random to be the most enjoyable way to play considering I don't strive for GM or care to brag about master's league to all the hot girlz and the chess club. I'm sure Cpt_Ghost gets mad lays for his SC2 accomplishments though! If terrans think TvP is broken to the point of tearing up and raging out on forum threads and quitting, then consider switching races. Til then, stay jimmy rustled, everyone else is laughing at you because you look like a bandwagon of crying teenage girls.
