It's really just the different attack range. When just moving around they behave exactly the same (moving a group of different workers will have them all move in perfect parallel).

To clarify trying to attack move a worker is like this:
Drone: go-spit-go-spit-go-spit-go-spit-go-spit-go-spit-go...
Probe: go-slizlezlezlezle-go-slizlezlezlezle-go-slizlezlezlezle-go-slizlezlezlezle-go-slizlezlezlezle-go-slizlezlezlezle-go...
SCV: go-bump unto target and stop-try to attack-hmm...target got out of nonexistent attack range-accelerate to go after target-damn, seems like target gotaway-I guess I'll stroll back to my minerals then...

It's the bump into unit and stop part, due to the short attack range, that makes SCVs lose ground.


Ahh, so with a range of 1 SCVs too could do moving shots? I was never quite sure if that was an inherent movement difference or just the range difference, thanks for letting me know

I guess so. Attack animation duration may have something to do with it too, though. Think Archons vs. Vultures: Vultures can be microed a lot better due to their instant attack whereas the long attack animation of the Archon means it decelerates a lot during its attacks, making good moving shots impossible.

I mean they already can do it, just pretty shittily, sometimes very rarely you see it used against Mutas (atleast thats the only time it happens at any non 0 frequency), to maybe get just a little more damage on them, its pretty cool actually!

omg that video is so fun...
btw can someone confirm this two things to me please, and sorry for my extrene ignorance:
1) Diagonal Carriers = Carriers on pvt when crossed positions (only) on 4 player map, right? if so, does it has to be from 2 bases?
2) Barrack Double is...? At first i thought 2 barracks but I don't see that making any sense giving the context

1) I don't know exactly what he meant, but cross position Carriers can be deadly on any map, even when not a 2-base timing. Actually, I think Carriers tend to work much better these days with a better economy than with the earliest possible timing.
2) Usually called Rax CC by foreigners.

Has OGN made any comments about what they plan on doing with BW in the future?

Their last tournament had a tiny live crowd, but the conditions for a live audience were kinda bad, and the youtube videos have quite a few views, so I am hoping it was still overall successfull enough?

I think they actually mean 3 base carriers on cross positions, there is an old game with Scan beating this Game

wow i got really triggered on this part:

''We showed some pros the game, and they started off playing 4:3. And we were like hey, you can also play 16: 9 ! When they tried it they were like, “No, we can’t do this.” So they switched it back. But by the end of the play session, everybody was playing 16: 9 .''

is complete BS right lol

That's believable, if there's a problem with the resolution, you'd be wanting everyone to be forced to use the same, but if an option there you're gonna take it.

it does not sound believable it sounds like complete BS because threy quote a progamer saying ''no, we cant do this 16: 9 '')
so right here is some progamer who played bw hardcore for 15years 4:3 and now he is like oh 16: 9 seems fun guys lets play that haha no sorry doesnt work that way

....just picture FlaSh being all of a sudden hey guys i like 16: 9 i switch now hahaha


edit well maybe if it was some lowtier sc2 pro or something i can imagine they would not mind that much 16: 9 but the whole story doesnt make sense at all

So you're saying pros like Flash shouldn't like using 16: 9? Or just that they shouldn't switch?

I would think it would be an advantage for pros to practice in 16: 9 as early as possible since tournaments will be switching to Remastered ASAP.

Why would Flash have to hate 16: 9 , in what way is 4:3 objectively suprior?

And can you stop trying to bash SC2 all the time, that makes you sound entitled and whiny...
