Tastosis really want me to come back and help them out with the BW casting over in Korea, once the time comes. | ||

That created a significant lead that gave BeSt a good chance to win. However he failed to do so. His main fail, (other than micro fails which I'm not looking to discuss here), was that he suffered severe economical damage from lurkers on his natural high ground. What BeSt did: ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/5xeLod8.jpg) What he should have done: ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/zi0wMqG.png) (The far left cannon isn't a necessity. The other 3 are.) | ||

So I started my SC journey here on TL watching BW in arguably its prime (late 2000s, JD, Flash, Effort, Stork, Bisu etc being awesome). Pretty much every game was a white-knuckle, "holy shit I'm drooling but can't help myself because this is so suspenseful" kind of situation. I'm so motherfuckin' glad BW is being cast again, especially by Tastosis. I'm a Zerg fanboy through and through, but even the Flash vs. Zero game the other day was incredibly entertaining. I don't really care so much about the forced mechanics (12 unit control groups, having to make every worker mine, etc), but just the back and forth nature of this game is amazing. This is what esports is really about for me. I've watched HotS, Overwatch, LoL, and several others but none come even close to the amazingness that is BW. This is so freaking fantastic. I'm just drunk on ecstasy watching these VODs. TY Mr. Chae, Afreeca, Tastosis, etc. Was that really a rant? You seem happy more than anything  Btw, you are 100% right, BW is the only esport I have been able to consistently watch/play for years. Quake (and a bit of cs1.6) came close but BW is just something else. BW will always be back and forth in nature because of the pathfinding and the limited unit selection that creates skirmishes all around the map rather than one big fight, and it's just SO fuckin great. | ||

Its all the unit interactions as a whole as well as the macro mechanics which allow for the constant back and forth. You are right, it is more than this but it is part of it. And yep, the unit design is incredible, that's why we have those small skirmishes, it's kind of hard to explain but anyone who knows bw know what we are talking about. And we can add the defender's advantage to all of this. | ||

That's such a pity, I really enjoyed your cast - very informative and insightful. And loving your voice too! BD: Time for you to move to Korea and cast too! So stoked for you guys | ||

Sure, I understand you guys casting part-time with little or no remuneration, so it's really a labour of love. The rest of us are truly indebted to you guys! Keep it up! | ||

I don't like the bad things about it (and how they affect P) but the layout makes for exciting games... well, being a PvZ grave deluxe, i think the map is a bad choice for ASL. It doesn't make sense with respect to the number of qualified Protoss players, overall quality of protoss players and the result of VNSL to pick a map, that is THAT bad for PvZ. | ||
