So yesterday, though I wasn't scheduled to play, I ended up playing 2 games as a wildcard on Totalbiscuit's ShoutCraft commentary due to a no-show. For those of you who don't know what this is, ShoutCraft is a live commentary on games by platinum players (currently from TL.net), with the intention of being the esports gateway drug. The commentary is done by totalbiscuit (British accent ^^) and theemporer, the 2 winners of Blizzard's ShoutCraft contest.
The 2 games I played ended up being rather interesting, the first because of my unorthodox play, and the second due to the pure mayhem and comeback by my opponent >< (bad on my part, but oh well).
You can watch it on livestream here

My games start at around 18 minutes, but I encourage you to watch the whole thing. They will eventually release this in 1080p.
On an aside, the nerf to scv HP has really been irritating me a bit in my ladder games, and even the first game I played in the ShoutCraft. Worker harass is now brutally annoying on my building-creation SCVs. SCVs are now technically the worst fighting worker, as they can't regen shield or HP by themselves. I really hope they change this back as it was a defining feature of teh Terran race, which doesn't need to be so drastically affected by cheesers.
@ work on a Saturday now >< gtg...

Yeah I honestly believe that I would have stopped you much sooner from getting into my base if scvs hadn't been nerfed so hard. 15 hp off of each scv when i had 4 scvs equates up to 60 more hp. Thats another whole scv basicly "gone" from the attack. I still feel that strat is viable with scvs though just because of the AI making scvs a high target priority. I'll probably keep messing around with it for a bit tbh. Great games though from shoutcraft. Everyone has told me the finals between you and me were the best entertainment. GG man

I hate live stream. It always bugs out on me.
