Can we have a replay of OP tele-SCUs on a map that isn't Seton's?

Strats also bomb the shit out of your own base. Use gunships?

Strats pretty much do move instantly. ASF counter them, not SAM. However, the problem is that there is only one counter so you are doomed to spam ASF no matter what on maps where T3 air is an option, guess you know that.

Strats don't move "immediately" from one spot to another. You failed to notice that compared to tele SCU ?

And besides your clearly missed the recent discussions that led to SAM buff. Zock (and probably others) complained about the impossibility of stopping massive strats no matter what. So ...

You know, I've seen a lot of discussion about how a person is supposed to defend against teleSCU this thread, including pd, tml, hiding, etc. But for some reason I've seen little discussion of the best defense. You know, a good offense? I mean several teleSCU isn't that cheap, what was the defending player doing that whole time that he's getting hit with all that?

If someone was complaining about getting killed by 30 strats you guys would be lambasting him for falling that far behind. How is this different?

How many t1 pd , t2 pd , TML and other defences can you put up for the same cost of gateway + sacu + upgrade + teleport. More importantly can an equal amount of mass/energy spent in defenses counter a teleporting SACU, if it can nothing needs to be changed and people just need scout.

I exclusively play High Noon and no other maps ever. I also exclusively play Cybran.

Aeon and Seraphim are OP because of their floating T1 units. Am I expected to make PD everywhere? Even if I do the Sera arty will outrange it! If I try to protect the south side with Mantises, the Aeon/Sera units will simply go the other way!

Aeon and Sera are OP and hover should be removed from their units because it stops me playing the way I want to play on my favourite map.

As this is the internet I probably need to point out that the above is satire.

The same is true for transports.

You want bigger, faster, cheaper teleporting transports???

Wtf? Why was this nonsense change implemented? SCU teleport is perfectly balanced to be a viable late game option for sera/aeon. The upgrade alone costs 1.5 MILLION energy. V's replays don't show anything but unawareness.

You can hit units in the water, but the dark blue water is deep enough to negate any damage.

i dont see why using a feature is abusing , anyway , this change is bad and will hurt the playstyle of teleporting people .

allow a short range anti teleport building instead of this shit .

we arent meant to be robots , and sometimes if a sacu teleports we have to deal with it , its like if u were talkin about nerfing cybran tele commander and stuff
