Second game he went for much more aggressive play, did little damage, and again was at half of flash's supply by the midgame. I know zerg should be behind in supply, but being 70 supply behind, and on the same number of bases as terran without any major set backs early... it was just a Flash stomp. | ||

JD also looked pretty despondent when they showed him on camera during games. Building BCs in TvZ is bm like scouts? Have you been following the scene for the past 5 months? BCs in TvZ SK Terran is very common nowadays. Even before BCs were used on occasion and like you saw in the showmatch are actually quite powerful unlike scouts in general. | ||

Well if we are lucky and Blizzard pulls out of Starcraft like they did out of Heroes, that 100k fee might go down as well. I'm pretty sure OGN would be more inclined to try a tournament again if it wasn't so super expensive to get the license from Blizz. | ||

The event is part of gaming convention hence many different games were played not just Starcraft. Considering how SC is the grandfather of e-sports in Korea, show-match between two legends doesn't seem out of the ordinary. | ||

Blizzard pulling out of StarCraft would be way worse for the scene. | ||

JD also looked pretty despondent when they showed him on camera during games. Uhh...BCs are pretty common with Bio terran, especially when terran is a comfortable relative position gaswise. Very gas expensive for zerg to deal with, and deal damage if Z isn't prepared. Scouts you never get out of them what you put in unless you get super, super fortunate. BCs are very easy to be gas effective, and really take away from the ultra count. I'm sure it's tough for JD to go from being right there with Flash to a upper middle tier zerg, especially since it's not like he went inactive. His body just kinda failed him. That's never easy. | ||

I don't believe L_Master was saying otherwise for a JD fan, but the idea that building BCs is like using scouts is far from reality since BCs have their uses as previously outlined while for scouts, their purposes more times than not is to BM. | ||

Two BCs can just be sent to a Zerg base and be super annoying. Random control groups of Cracklings can be thrown around the map (e.g. on Circuit Breaker, the Mineral only bases are basically just free Crackling farms). They'll cause lots of damage if not responded to quickly. | ||

I agree. I think the observer is part of why at this point, the game felt depressing to me. Because once the cruisers go in, theoretically, Flash should be using that time to do something else... but the observer just stared at the battlecruisers the whole time. | ||
