      @@tytp001 I truly think in my admittedly uneducated opinion Maru possesses more skills than any of these other guys, but just chokes or is a head case or whatever when he is competing offline. He's doing more innovative stuff than all these other players and showcasing stuff that requires more skill than these other players. Zerg mid-game against Terran is basically broken and that's where Maru struggles the most, along with surprise builds. The only time Terran can comfortably dominate mid-game is if they either kill a ton of workers early or create some very successful early pressure and capitalize on it. Otherwise, if the Zerg is able to establish bases it can just keep spamming Lings and Bane run-bys until they get their T3 units out. The funny part is it used to be late-game TvZ that was impossible to win for the Terran. Either way, Zerg is still OP. The Aligulac rankings say it all.

    15:35 this was some Sun Tzu shit. Uses the locusts to get view and force a response, uses a nydus to force a large response, moving Maru's army out of its central position to defend, then snipe the southeast base with the real army and pull back. And all it cost was a nydus and a locust round, and a few lings to the PF. Brilliant. That is the kind of stuff I watch SC2 for.

      Generally, they don't have the money for it. Every mineral you spend on static defenses, is money you're not putting in your army on the front line. For Terran, the race that normally has to be aggressive in the match up, that means you're less likely to put damage on them if you don't have your full army there.
      What you're getting at is why Terrans will start building Planetary Fortresses at expansions after a while. They're harder to kill and can defend against small run byes. But bunkers require 275 minerals and 4 supply, which starts to add up and make your army noticeably worse.
