Haven't seen the game but maybe he was afraid of 2 port wraith, which would annihilate carriers and shuttles. | ||

I'm curious as to how PvP and ZvZ look on Sparkle, I'm sure it's very strange! | ||

After watching game 1 I'm pretty sure he did it because he saw the early goliath. Light went Vult-Goliath. You basically don't have a chance to catch up and get to the critical number of carriers. | ||

There just doesn't seem to be a great way of checking Protoss's greed, and once the Arbiters and Carriers are out, good luck .. I'm curious as to how PvP and ZvZ look on Sparkle, I'm sure it's very strange! PvP is intense! It's drops, carriers, sair-reavers. I also saw cute things like cannon wars (for the center expansion in a previous version) and scouts mixed in with the air army. I saw a great spon, Stork v Rain, yesterday that I think you'll enjoy. | ||

It seems like you still can't kill those carriers. The only way to win for terran is to use mobility to kill nexus and probes, while piling up hundreds of turrets for defense. Can't wait to see the real TvP in the coming ASL5 \o/ | ||

ZvP = die to sair reaver, TvP = every game is playing against carrier time bomb From what i have seen its almost impossible for z to win if toss has taken 3rd island w/ cannon/sair/DA. While it's good to see different units and playstyles i think it'd be better if the map was semi island instead of full island. | ||

ZvP = die to sair reaver, TvP = every game is playing against carrier time bomb The thing is, Arbiters are also incredibly strong on island maps. In the first game of Stork vs Light, Stork had Arbiters sitting around for ages. When he finally used them it was gg. Especially in Goon vs Goliath on island maps, if you lose a battle you will lose your entire army that's there. You can't retreat. With arbiters you will most likely win most battles because you get the bigger army to the point in need. Especially defensive recalls should be strong. | ||

Thanks for the translations Terrorbladder. Sparkle 1.0: ![[image loading]](https://mblogthumb-phinf.pstatic.net/MjAxODAzMDRfMzcg/MDAxNTIwMTQwNTQyNTE5.5eCno7T9UG-fGj0ZACYf8yBpaahVE_E9rXc1GJx-Qtkg.XejeKsmuA1P2ExiKTX5InFxOfw3Gw6wXjTv1sXtplzMg.JPEG.kangkuyol/%284%29Sparkle_1.0.jpg?type=w2) Sparkle 0.99a → 1.0+ Show Spoiler + -Removed the center expansion -Added 2 mineral patches to each of the 12, 3, 6, 9 expansions -Move the location of the Lairs at 12, 3, 6, 9 to allow building stuff without having to destroy the Lairs -Added 3 mineral patches near the Zerg-only geyser of each base, reduced the gas in the natural geyser from 3500 to 3000, increased the gas in the Zerg-only geyser from 1500 to 3000 -Added a (Neutral Lair) in the corner of each base Transistor 1.0: ![[image loading]](https://mblogthumb-phinf.pstatic.net/MjAxODAzMDRfMTQw/MDAxNTIwMTQxMTE2MjM3.Yj8x0SIfISXzWI7vpTGAe1KrVOPv0JCD3ece0pAdf_Qg.IDBogogL4GxK4xjBYVPJDQWTkJgO9N8t3i-8-yFPuYAg.JPEG.kangkuyol/%283%29Transistor1.jpg?type=w2) Transistor 0.992 → 1.0+ Show Spoiler + -The one patch in each of the mains and the one patch in each of the nats that were 749 minerals have been reduced to 499 minerals. According to the author this is to reduce the number of marines that Terran can have late game against Zerg. | ||
