i see you're familiar with the worst starcraft

what's even dumber is that it makes having armor a weakness instead of a strength.

To be fair damage types were always a thing in Starcraft. They just never fucking told you in 1 and people had to figure it out themselves. Ie concussive, explosive, etc.

>game balance is based on rock paper scissors mechanic
>except rock is clearly better because rock is super effective against scissors, paper characters are terrible and rock characters has a massive flexible movepool and are extreme overpowered that it counters its weakness with ease anyway.
