That's so cool. Never knew that either. Makes you wonder what small details like this are still there. Does it work on Shield Batteries too? 😄

Of course! When used on shield batteries , they lose their shield and their energy !!

Yes, it's an organic unit.


I didn't know about the EMP on a Comsat station , but it makes sense since it removes energy on a Battery Shield.

Check this one out:

Whenever I see new things I can't help but wonder if they are Remastered only or if it's really because I hadn't seen it before.

Yes, too bad. Here in Romania it's called " small final "

Why haven't there been a UMS tournament where the loser picks the next UMS to play? Now that would be hilarious.

edit: and I mean from all billions of UMS maps, not a list of 10 or so.

players dont care for it and it is effectively a waste of money (i.e. paying for broadcast staff) to put on a series that ultimately mean nothing outside of a few hundred dollars in prizes since both players are already seeded for the next season anyway

Have pros ever talked about the standardization of Bo7 over Bo5 in tournaments? Back in Kespa days Bo5 was considered the "best" format for a final etc (I think because a Bo7 was considered too long? Players lose stamina, can't prepare as much for each match). And ASL kept to that for the first couple years (in fact I remember reading they specifically changed to Bo7 for ASL final just so it would last longer since flash kelp demolishing opponents so quickly?). But now everything is Bo7 after the Ro16, and players are constantly doing Bo7s (even Bo9 in ultimate battle) in spon matches. I guess they're all fine with it since they continue to play them, but i wonder if they ever complain?

the standard was bo5 because each tournament had a pool of 4 maps, so you could repeat one map for the first and last game if needed. also because everything was on cable tv, finals needed to fit within a certain time period and bo7's jeopardized going overtime. that being said, the only time ever an individual final was bo7 was the golf king msl between nada and gorush which i think was only done just to try and separate msl from the osl in terms of making it its own thing.

personally i'm not a fan of quarter final bo7's in the asl as it takes away the prestige of the length. quarter finals being bo5 was perfect but in the current state of the asl there seems to be zero place for it. if they won't budge with the qf's being bo5 at least make the final qualifying game from the ro16 groups bo5 just to add a bit of drama.
