I agree since watching vods can teach them a thing or two. Ban teamliquid, gosugamers, sc2gg, etc...
SK-Gaming and ShackNews picked up the story too. So many idiots flaming.

Yea, Sloan, Wharton, Booth, and Ross have all significantly lost prestige. They're all basically SC classes now.

I wonder if they're going to outlaw mind control in the tournament. Everyone knows thats a bullshit Protoss advantage. I would probably fail that class because I'm terrible at micro management.

@ThisCharmingMan:
I doubt it - Mind Control is easily defeated by Terrans using the Sci Vessel's EMP ability (which will leave the Dark Archons with only 25hp, and no energy). Trying to mind control Zerg units is usually a futile gesture, since they're individually weak, and there is no reason to bring drones into battle, so they aren't at risk of being mind controlled unless you leave your base open for a drop.
The game is balanced enough to the point where there's really no need to restrict anything (as long as they're using the latest patch).

@Omatic: I agree, but camping a few dark archons in your base and taking control of carriers or battlecruisers attacking your fortifications is still kind of a dirty advantage in my opinion. If you hide 12 in your base, you will suddenly have a fleet of your opponents most powerful units. The fact that you can mind control an SCV and build a terran base alongside your protoss forces is also rather cheap. I hope they take away mind control in SC2.

@ThisCharmingMan: When you watch most the pro players they never play protoss anyways. And when they do they rarely if ever use mind control.

This class is a UC Berkeley DeCal, meaning you can take it to earn credits towards graduating but you can't take it to fulfill any sort of minor or major degree. Everyone who was wondering about getting a BS degree in starcraft and who weren't kidding needs to understand this.
Cal has a bunch of these DeCals... they're student run courses which had to be approved by a professor.
|
Shhhhhh!!!
This attention is quite nice :D
|
Haha, sorry Superiorwolf. Even though its student run, I know Nimue will be very professional.
|
Attention means that they'll be like 500 people trying to get into the class...
|
|
|
Classes aren't up yet, they begin this Thursday
BTW, I feel like more people will show up than expected... 
|
I was just watching X-Play on G4 and they had a little segment about this in their Gaming Update :D
Of course any gameplay they showed was an FP view of a total noob playing lol
given the popularity of the class, maybe you should promote teamliquid and pro-gaming in it!

Superiorwolf: FUCKING PROTOSS 1A2A3A. omg.........storm raped all my chogolings......FUCK
Tossnub: I win keke! Studiying Bisu for homework really helped.
After the game both go grab something to eat together. Haha. Seems like a fun course, but is it worth using education $ for Starcraft? =o........Gonna get flamed.

+ Show Spoiler +uhh the third terran mission of the original campaign: Desparate Alliance

Mission 3 of Terran Campaign (vanilla), where you had to survive for 30 minutes until Mengsk's dropships arrived.
Edit: Dammit, beaten. D:
|
lol about the extra credit.
I think people shouldn't be flaming this course. Our DeCal courses don't exactly require people's $ to go on. Its basically a student with a great idea who uses a lecture hall or discussion room sometime when no professors have to use it. It takes about as much $ as it takes for a group of college students to go somewhere and talk about anything. = 0$ i think.

Just posting to say WOW. I hope everything runs smoothly Nimue!
