The idea of making a shuttle is easily countered by sairs. They're fast, effective, and having a support unit for shuttles takes too long to counter defensive sairs. Unless it's a 4 dt drop (sup LocDog), I doubt shuttles are going to be very effective in this tour in matches where one player decides to make 4+ defensive sairs a game.
SC is like sex. You should play often, but never too hard. And you should only try hard when it matters.

You're the hero BW needs, though you're not the one it deserves.


what?


You don't know Batman (hint: replace BW with Gotham City)?^^

@Ribbon
Would be nice if you made one public tour like this. Would really love it. You could make it 2 stages. First open bracket until Ro16 and from there like this tournament (closed "semi-invite" Tournament). I would love it

Could also make it semi open and semi invite. 16 invites and 16 open bracket players, so you get a Ro32 or something.

I'm thinking double robo instead of stargate since corsairs are a pretty bad investment early and can't shoot reavers.
Also shuttle speed allows for safe harass.

Some games may end up in draw I guess.

Depends on the numbers involve. A scout beats a sair 1-on-1, as it has a lot more health/shields and out DPSes a sair even accounting for corsairs having faster attacks an a favorable size. Sairs beat scouts in larger numbers due to splash, but there's really not need to stack scouts in the first place, since the only anti-air you have besides your own scouts (corsairs, archons, and storm) is splash damage

And even if you win the air war with corsairs (they are cheaper!), now you're stuck with useless corsairs. Scouts at least shoot down.

You could dweb, but I agree that scouts > cors.

Reaver sair is going to do work in this tourney. If anything survives past reaver sair, I think maelstrom will be rather classy vs mass zealots.

I love these kinds of tourneys, thanks for making it happen Ribbon, Game, Shiroiusagi, and Hacklebeast!
