Just woke up and was headed to work when I saw a KZbin notification that Harstem uploaded a new IODIS video and what do you know, my submission from a couple of weeks ago was published.😂 In all honesty tho, your criticism is what I needed because it’s giving me the points to improve on. For some additional context, I was a rank Masters Protoss back in HOTS but only started playing ladder again 2 months ago. Made the switch to Terran and perhaps that can help explain my poor BO’s because I’m still working on them. Been watching a lot of your videos and love it when you off race as Terran. I actually learned that unit movement of splitting cyclones/Helions from you so thank you. I’ve also subsequently started to park tanks in my natural and third as defensive units and ghosts are definitely a mainstay now too. Love your content and hope to submit more IODIS videos for learning points in future.😉

With my subpar control Vipers (and infestors too) seem impossible to keep alive; I throw out one spell and they get hit by a volley and die.

Harstem's banter is for shits and giggles. What most people don't seem to understand is that they get a free (albeit a little harsh) coaching session from a pro player with infinite knowledge of the game. Good on you for not getting salty :D But no, Vipers are not imba :D I'd even argue that him getting vipers and the investment that he put into it was good for you. Vipers are 100minerals/200gas/3s each. Only that is a huge investment. And then he built i think 4 evo chambers to be able to afk drain without losing any buildings he cares about. 4 drones (50x4=200minerals) 4 evos (75x4=300minerals). That's like an investment of at least 1500 minerals + 2000 gas just to have those 10 or something vipers that he made during the entire game. I don't think they added even close to that in damage to you. Anyway, keep climbing the ladder! And don't forget to build ghosts. ;) It would've countered everything he built the entire game because GHOSTS are actually what's OP in this matchup. ;)

Hey captain, I had a killer opener one game, where I walked 7 of my scvs into the protoss's base and killed 3 of his workers (but mostly denying his mining time and delaying natural), and then used that opener to transition into my 8 barracks production (It feels like something uthermal would do), and for the early game, I had the protoss wrapped around my finger- harassing him one base at a time. I killed at least 9 probes, but when I decided to attack his main at 13 minutes, he had a few too many photon cannons and batteries and shredded my poor soldiers. I remade the army (I had lots of money because I had 3 bases by now), and then decided to get combat shield finally since I think that's why the cannons were so effective. So I do a little edge harassment again, but then when I decide to finally make a push, he had made 3 high templar, and stormed my entire army. The only conclusion I can come up with is that High Templar are OP, and bio terran is a worthless comp when all they need to do is make a single unit. Is it IMBA or Do I suck

They're still hurting themselves as much as their opponent when they try to micro. You can get to diamond with no scout, no micro with every race because plat and below don't realize that Macro Is King. Even if you like using cheese or timing attack strategies. Diamond is when you should start getting a vague recollection that spell casters exist and consider incorporating them into your army comp _after_ you start to master the basics of micro. Not when you should have all the spell caster counters mastered.

I continue to be amazed at how a Terran could start so badly economically, behind on upgrades, and playing against a better unit comp, and STILL stumble his way to a large advantage. Does Zerg really need to play like two ranks higher than a Terran on the ladder just to have a decent chance at winning?

I know what patch terrains want. Perfect all zerg units so that as soon as they come in range of any terrain fighting unit they automatically explode like a baling. We could sell this nerf as though it is somehow good...😆

Probably a team player that will win with the cyclone/he'll tank because of how the meta works in team but doesn't play proper starcraft late game in 1s.. he just needs to practice 1s more.. like you said, a little defence at exterior bases and more practice multitasking when things get chaotic. I thought his beginning was actually better then what you did, he's just not a closer in 1s yet

i need to ask those in the comments or harstem if you read this has it ever been IMBA or do they all suck if one was ever IMBA a link would be awesome thanks to any replies in advance

I don't have a link but I recall a pro sent in an iodis and Harstem called it imba, but the complaint was rather specific and it was irrelevant after the next patch

Honestly I don’t have the APM to manage both that split off army and defend my main.. That’s why I control shift clicked into the natural. I did however scan to see one lurker and I honestly thought I could take it but was surprised at the damage output from that single lurker. Should have gone straight to the third instead…

Nope i am terran i dont think viper is imbalance from this video i understand reason of viper in late game to change zerg poor efficiency in somehow eual trading , and i using more than one group for units .. dont be bad on terran player in the end you are Terran not prottos cause you was born on Tera not on Aiur LOL.Terran player lose that game in that base trade sadly he lost all production and that was reason of his loss not vipers if he fly buildings and or remake production he will win or if he build atleast 10 viking for vipers, also he stay on cyclones too long ...

It was 3 base vs 4 base as zerg and he just a-moved and pressed one button with lurkers. No wonder a protoss peanut brain can't realize why this is imbalanced since they're used to a-moving and winning while doing everything wrong... Either way this terran was awful for going cyclone mech in the first place, but for how the zerg played, he still deserved to win.
