See this is why people hate BW circle jerkers so much. Artosis said that playing SC2 has made the best BW players better at some aspects of broodwar. If you think that isn't true, well you're just wrong. SC2 is an easier mechanical game allowing players to focus more on strategy, tactics, creativity and other aspects. They bring what they've been able to do in SC2 back to BW and combine that with the higher mechanical demands they are doing and they are better players. It's the same as the chess analogy. You don't learn how to click faster or how to use control groups but you do learn how to plan for the future 20 moves in advance.

Soulkey didn't win his game against Movie because he played better mechanically, he won because he used a creative strategy, that literally looked exactly like a 2012-2013 SC2 build. Get over yourself, watch a different stream and stop trying to keep your nostalgic "pure, bw is the only Starcraft ever crap to yourself."


Soulkey's strategy was NOT creative. It's a strategy that's literally years old and has been played often over the past few years. I would also argue that Soulkey was a much higher caliber player in 2011 than he is now.

I don't disagree with the assumption that players may take some ideas from SC2 to BW which gives them advantages. I did, too, for example. However, in this case it's simply not true.


You know what, I'm done, no one fucking reads, circle jerk about your game, kill both of them because you can't deal with anyone who doesn't love your pure nostalgia.


You know what, I'm done, no fucking understanding of what is going on. If it was some new build you could have brought this SC2 analogy as a caster, I agree on that point. However, Soulkey himself has played this build before he switched to SC2. SC2 has nothing to do with it at all. Another sentence Artosis could have used would be "oh, this looks like some kind of SC2 build", which would have been fine as well, even though it's a BW build. Got it?

and this is why the anti bw-circlejerker circlejerkers are just as bad as the bw circlejerkers themselves

kinda wish the mods would ban pro vs anti sc2 debate in general in the bw forum...

This was flash playing well than soulkey playing poorly. i'll try to simplify the thoughts that bisu expressed on his stream during the last moments.

1) flash sent out his 12 unit army out to force the lurkers to burrow/unborrow and slow down their progress towards his base if soulkey was morphing lurks inside his base.

2) soulkey had morphed lurks outside and had ~1 group of lings outside flash's base. And when flash moved his initial army out, he moved his lings into his base which was very nice. it made flash into a hard decision. do i send my initial army back (giving time for the sunkens) or do i go rush into his nat hoping my army that comes out from the rax to defend it.

if you watch the the minimap during this time, flash doesn't even hesitate and moves his army straight to soulkey's nat.

3) if sk does go back and defend, note that he has no spire and has no harassing tools so flash can save 400-500 minerals in turrets and can push out a lot earlier. and does he really want to go late game vs flash?

I know. I think more BO3s would make better games. The players would not have their back against the wall, facing elimination all the time. It creates a lot of nerves..

I feel like the most any BW player would get out of SC2 would be mental and psychological rather than strategical. The increased opportunities to play in the booth and on stage (and sometimes on the bigger stage of a foreign tournament or grand finals) would've helped those players steel themselves against any remaining stage fright or other mental roadblocks.

I'd feel bad for Movie especially after how he lost the first game, but Soulkey needs to advance. Ro16 needs more Zerg
