But to win a game with only them? 3-4 of DTs can't kill an entire army on their own and if you make too many air units/drops and cannons will hurt you, etc.

Try mind-controlling an ovy/observer/vessel? :3


How do you mind control an observer if you dont have detection... genius

Jesus, this isn't TL Arena, it's the foreign starcraft holocaust.

I just hope the selection process is truly random this time! ^^

Thought that ~24 hours before the Polls/Live thread is as good a time as any to explain how I am doing this. I don't know how Pholon did it (he explained it several times but I was not really listening).

Three Zerg will be selected, Three Terran will be selected and Two Protoss will be selected. Random players or players who can pick any race will 'count' as a Terran or Zerg for the purposes of selection (note that they will still only be included once as either T or Z).

The selections will be randomly determined from within the group, with no bias towards any particular rank, nationality or popularity. This will be achieved with random numbers assigned to each or some similar way.

The order in which each player will play will be something like my choosing their name and picking a map out of a hat - or something less lame to that effect.

Reserves will be based in Race categories and there will be 6 reserves in total - two from each SC race. If a P player pulls out, the #1 P reserve will take the place if available, and the #2 P reserve will take the place if #1 is in turn unavailable. If both reserves are unavailable then wtf we can pick someone randomly hey.

I will be doing this selection process tonight so to be in the chance to participate submit your name before 9:00PM KST tonight. Submitting later will not mean you have no chance, but it will be less likely as you will only have a chance if I am lazy and do the selection of players (or reserves) tomorrow morning in time for the Polls/Live thread.

Cheers.

PS - your position may be jeapordised if you do not show up and 'check in' by letting staff know you are here at the scheduled time.

I promise you it isnt, you could probably kill a D rank player before they get any invis units anyway, and even if they do, i can only see the game going to a draw at worst,
vs zerg u can mindcontrol overlords

vs terran, if u let them get 2 bases and mass wraith, that could be a little bit of a problem ;P. but even then leg can just mass expand and throw waves and waves of units at you.

vs protoss, if they're smart enough to dt expand, he could send dts all over the map and stop you from expanding ever again, this is the only one i see that it could be hard for leg if the d rank player plays it smart. altho i know what i'd do if i was leg in this mu with this handicap but i wont say out of fairness since it will ruin it if he tries it ;P

obvioulsy it'd be the kind of handicap that gets set only in the last few games against the D/D+ players, but i think some of you are underestimating how big the skillgap is here. im C+ but im sure any A rank korean could beat me with all kinds of ridiculously unfair advantages.

I love how Pholon has linked to TL Arena Ep. 1 three times or so in this thread alone. XD

As for handicaps I love the idea of having to send the probe away to the enemy base after building a building.

Yeah people are like "NOES ITS UNPOSSIBLE PLYAING WITH DIS D:" and then Shauni rolled all these noobs with those exact handicaps and more. Use your brain people.

Also, I don't know if Warp Gates can be done as there is no obs mode?
