thats about the only thing i have understood so far in this wc3 matchup. "oppents army away from main base? Counter attack and kill CC gg"


usually not the case because people have town portals or whatever they are called.


Can somebody tell me why Blademasters so strong? What is so good about them, I know the skills they are using, windwalk and critical strike, but what is so great about those skills that he's always chosen and that people call the bm imba?


Cause BM is has great movement speed, scouting, creep stealing, harassing, fast attack speed, and crit stacks well with items. Its like that analogy BM = DT + Vulture speed

windwalk makes you move fast, walk through units and adds damage when striking from behind and critical strike makes you do triple damage.

With those skills the blade master takes only 5 minutes to kill one orc, instead of the usual 10 minutes.

What the hell? in sc you can take down Nexus or hatches waay more easily.

And the bm is so good for all the reasons already mentioned, but what they all come down to is that he can constantly scout and harass the enemy and his creeping without danger of being killed since he can run away so fast, and be an excellent damage dealer in battles. thats why orcs usually play without TPs, since they always know where the enemy army is - or should, and if they dont, you get what happened to Lyn.

Guys, guys.

Let's not argue with each other and let's focus on how superior Starcraft is to Warcraft III.

Why does this look so different from Dota? I'm confused. Why are they only using Juggernaut and Rhasta?

Well you can talk about how Wc3 progamers might transition to Sc2 which was suggested. I could see it happening if Sc2 is popular enough. Sc1 progaming might not be only esport death with Sc2 release.

The only difference I see is that the lanes are built by the player rather than the computer.
