it sort of reads like one of those comic books where you're not sure which dialogue comes first and have to re-read it a couple times

Spotlight!
I would prefer some words, sometimes hard to compute. But its a piece of art, no doubt.
Congrats to the 3,5k!!
Bisu[about JD]=I was scared (laughs). The force emanating from his facial expression was so manly that I was even a little jealous.

"Thats why!" and mind controls an ovie :D

But I did similar things in earlier BRs of mine as well, just not to this extent, see my earlier blogs.

They have TSL tags in the replay, and it was uploaded into the gg database a year ago, so i'm guessing TSL2 qualifiers. Maybe KwarK can give a better estimate.

He already had the ovi when he asked that (I hope this style is not that confusing :-p), he used it to break Mondi's lurker defense at the nat, the hilarious thing is that he asks about them having drop while Mondi has a doomdrop flying towards his base.

Yeah it was pretty epic, I've never seen of that before but mini map shots would really help since I am wondering the timings of mind control DA to be plausible since hydra mass seem to work well in desti making Kwarks composition pretty terrible (unless mondragon never goes hydras? )

but the picture work was excellent
I don't need luck, luck is for noobs, good luck to you though

Aah, I see, I thought he asked that because he saw the drop coming in, and I referred to mind controlling an ovie full of troops, but I get it now.

This should be the replay if you want that instead to compare timings.

wow that was really cool. i wonder how someone who hasn't watched the game will comprehend it ^^

nice gfx, good use of the HD broodwar mod too

Yeah, I was worried it might be a bit confusing, hopefully it's still enjoyable. I was trying to add all the details that are needed to follow the progression of the game (such as shots of the minimap from time to time), but it's hard to be objective about my own work, especially as I've watched the replay several times.

As someone who didnt know this match before: It's awesome!

Well the main point of the strategy was getting maelstrom against the mutas - but since they didn't come, he tried making the DA useful anyway. With 200 energy he could have landed two maelstroms as well, I can imagine that working decently in case of a mass-hydra surprise. That said, I'm not sure either why was he so archon-heavy, maybe because his archives was busy researching maelstrom and mc? Or maybe he just doesn't like using too many templar with his low apm? I haven't seen enough replays of his to tell.

Kwark makes DA when he knows he's going to lose then says, 'clearly I didn't care about the game, did you not see the DA?'

(Don't want to be flamed by broodwar purist, but) I do hope that Mondragon will soon kick ass in SC2.
SC2 is the best game to watch and was the best to play before I grew old and slow...

Kinda hard to understand if you aren't familiar with the map.

Thankfully, I know every single expo spot and how it looks. Cuz I make maps.

Great BR.

Edit: FOR THOSE WHO DON'T GET WHY HE GOT DAs.

He was on templar tech with zealot speed and he saw or guessed (doesn't show in screenshots) that lurkers are coming. He can either go all the way to robo tech and get observers or just get dark archons and mind control an overlord. He chose the latter. Risky, since scourge can kill overlords without detection, but cool and flashy. Or I could be totally wrong and he got them for some other reason, or as a combination.
