Was watching Mythbusters today when I saw something that made me do a double take:

[image loading]


Apparently they don't approve of you zergs who cheese! It's CRUEL!
Made me completely forget what I was watching for a second.


*Thought I should add some context: they were doing a countdown of myths so that's where the #6 came from. As for the myth it was + Show Spoiler +
a myth about shooting bullets into water
which did involve a pool... but I wouldn't think they would have to include pool in the name, and no clue where the cruelty came from haha.

I totally agree and I think when a Zerg 6 pool's me and send's all his drones with the ling attack, it is VERY cruel.

Haha, that's totally awesome their graphics guys did that. Pretty sure Jamie and Adam wouldn't be doing that themselves though, although I could totally see them playing SC2.

The real question: what race would they play?

(I'd imagine Adam as a zerg(wilder side of the pair), and maybe Jamie as a protoss(careful, meticulous etc)

Now that came completely out of left field. I wonder if it's the CGI guy who plays or Jamie and Adam.

I hate to burst everyone's bubble, but I don't think they intentionally referenced Starcraft here.

It's the 6th myth, and the title of the bit is Pool Cruelty because you're shooting bullets into a pool.

I'm sure it was intentional, but it doesn't mean Jamie and Adam play Starcraft, just the graphics guys(s) referencing it.

Laughed so hard when I saw that. Pretty sure its intentional as well, as while the myth did involve a pool, there was absolutely nothing cruel about it to neither the pool or the people around.
