On BGH it doesn't matter if you are "denied expansion" so that strategic part is gone... You don't need to worry about expanding yourself - there is little or no comparison with the opponent's resources and the need to get more.. The landscape is uniform - the element of holding a ramp is missing, very little higher/lower ground situations Because of pathway structure of the map, it's easier to predict the placement of enemy forces. Because of the said pathways, micro is more limited (flanking, spreading units, surrounding) It is not hard to secure the workers/minerals and make them almost untouchable with cannons turrets/a few units But BGH can still be fun, and I've played with players who suck outside of BGH but on BGH can give a fairly player a run for his money.There are skills in BGH but playing BGH doesn't train them as well as playing non-money maps. A BGHer loses a lot in playing non-money map but a player of standard maps has a more diverse experience and can much more easily adapt | ||

I really think assholes who have thoughts on the opinions of other peoples thoughts should shut the fuck up and insert many expletives until theres a big block of text that couldve been summed up with the word "opinion". Shit. | ||

Let the BGHers live in their own world. Let the "normal resource" players live in their own world. They already can, and will, co-exist. And if BGHers help maintain the popularity of SC, then so much the better for the rest of us. Long live SC! | ||

Anyhow, I treat BGH like a UMS. I find people who go on vitrolic rants about how Starcraft is declining because of money maps to be funny though. Do they object to UMS games too? | ||

BGH is one of my favorite maps haha i've encountered some people who are actually very good at BGH, and i think the standard P>T>Z>P goes out the window. It's a very different kind of game and I think it does require alot of skill to be REALLY good at BGH. LoL, i remember asking trek if he wanted to 2v4@BGH and he said "No thx, people who play BGH are good at BGH." Its actually quite true. Although ALOT of people suck, i've been fucked over pretty hard by some :D Nonetheless, low resources do take a shitload more skill than BGH. A very different kind of skill, but a shitload more skill regardless. Also, i think other people have said this too: Pimpest Plays is implicitly referring to low resource games. Of course people have used arbiter/hallucination before. Hell, i did it on the single player before I could even get online. It's not "someone thinking up a play" way before anyone else, but rather then using it in a game EFFECTIVELY. Obviously, if i donkey punch some 3rd rate newbie in a BGH game w/ arbiter/hallucination, it doesn't really impress anyone. But, Nal_rA using it as THE game winning move against GoodFriend, THAT deserves a pimpest play award. :D BGH > LT hah | ||

Sorry for my vehemence, I love to see people have fun without having to put up with others better than them who say "that's not the right way". There. I MIND when you post retarded crap like this. Please refrain from doing this. Ever. Again. I hate misinformation and when people think what they're doing is "the best" or "right". Granted, if they're doing it for fun, who gives a shit. It's when BGH players start saying nonmoney has less skill, or they like playing FPM because it's "more intense and fast paced and strategic where I have a problem. I like this e-mail regardless of if he is pretending to be someone, becuase it was nicely written, wasn't condescending (like the above post), and further, he was knowledgable about the level of Starcraft is played at on the highest level. My Aunt has some coworkers and they like to play 4v4 games on 256x256 maps, and last year when I played with them I would always bitch and whine about how the big maps took no skill and it took 15 minutes to walk from place to place therefore it was more luck based and less timing. Fact of the matter is, those people just want to fuck around, I'm sure they would be impressed if they saw some progamer replays, when I offered, they declined. "Why would I want to watch someone do something that I can do myself?" It still brings me a little bit of nerd fury even today. | ||
