Someone may've already mentioned this idea before at some point, I think it's a great idea: lets reduce the awesome of the shock value so there will be less negative feelings. For the same reason we should also make horror movies without the scary so there will be more happiness after the gory.
If you want to do the right thing, 80% of your job is done if you don't do the wrong thing.

How is this bullshit? You both have an arrow. The other guy is shooting a bird. You are shooting him. Your arrow hits him after his arrow is released. Your arrow should kill him but his arrow should still kill the bird.


Pointless to use such an analogy for Starcraft. If you hit an EMP on an Arbiter you should be able to stop a recall, not have an Arbiter still get the recall off 2 seconds later.

Lol I love how you just wrote off the argument as pointless by just restating your initial argument.

Yeah makes sense, maybe let's change it so that once the Arbiter casts recall it still goes off even if the Arbiter dies. Or if it gets hit by lockdown or stasis (not that it will ever happen). Since it's already casted it should go off?

Except removing the energy of an Arbiter and destroying/disabling an Arbiter are not at all analogous? How are you so confidently just skipping over this fact?


Yeah that's what I'm saying, since it's a video game if I were to patch it it would be to tweak the mechanics of EMP so that it stops recall if it hits.

I don't think it's that hard to understand?

Only change I would make is for SCVs to be able to attack units under dark swarm. They are a melee unit after all. I don't think that would break the game.

No, the entire time you've framed this as that it's "bullshit" and you "should be able to stop it" as if this is some universal truth, and not some head canon patch you're plotting. You're entitled to your opinion, just as much as others are entitled to the opinion that your opinion is stupid.

Terran is already the most successful race in the game. Just because it irks you personally as a lower level player doesn't mean that it's something that needs fixing. This has been proven time and again by progamers. Again, as I said above: get over it.


Maybe I could have put my point across another way, but this is the general discussion thread and I was just highlighting a topic for discussion. Maybe we should chill a little!

Since Artosis and Tasteless didnt cast ASTL is there any english cast on internet? I found guy named Namkraft did it but dude is hard to listen (nothing personal if you read this ). Did Scan maybe cast season 3?

Scan wasn't given permission so it's a bit of a risk as Afreecatv might issue a copyright strike. Namkraft took that risk so it's either him or the original Korean audio on Afreeca -- both are linked in the Small VoD Thread 2.0.

if i was forced to make changes to bw (which i wouldn't)

then i would make it so that the arbiter's recall startup had a visible animation on the arbiter (think like how science vessels blink). i think this would reduce the amount of feelbad moments for terrans without affecting much otherwise

That seems sensible. It’s a fair interaction as it is but it would look a little less wonky/you’d have feedback quicker as to whether you nailed your EMP or not.

Afaik they are ranged units with range 0?
So would you change scvs to actual melee (which might break something) or make units with range 0 unaffected by dark swarm (changes darkswarm)?

It has a range of 1.

This is a common misconception.

Space construction vehicles are actually ranged units, being less than 1, their range being the shortest in the game. This common misconception comes from the animation, that makes it look as if their attack is melee, as for example a zergling, while it is ranged, go figure

What really throws me off as a color blind person is for instance watching ASL right now ZvZ Sacsri vs byuktube, and it appears it is teal vs green? It is really hard for me to tell being color blind, they look almost identical... T_T

No it is not! He needs to not give a fuck! Just stream and do you. Ignore what teenage koreans say, they should not take finance advice from anyone but books and goldman sachs! Thank you.

I mean if u explain the coin situation to anyone, once you get to the part where no one actually lost any money, people go "wtf?". But Korean culture is different from western culture so it is what it is.
Hoping he can make a comeback, always good to have bisu around
