all units require good control to maximize their benefit. saying that you can just 1a everything and get maximum benefit from units is just stupid.

i played bw since 1998, and all of the blizzard games before then. it was a great game.


You misunderstood me. I'm not saying the rest of the units don't shine with good control. They do. But a Blink upgrade or good Force Field control can really turn the tide of battle. The ability and the upgrade takes those units and elavates them way more then their main intended combat use. Day9 explained this it nicely in a daily with values etc.

If your opponent has 50 marines and you have 50 banelings it doesn't really matter how much you split. Yes I've seen Foxer, now MKP split insanely and it's nice to watch, but I've seen countless many games where banelings just crash in and Marines fall like dominos. Alternatively, it doesn't matter what you can do with say, Marines versus Fungal Growth. You get Fungalled and you die. That's it. Forcefield is kinda the same, but it is way harder (still not insanely harder) to pull of than a fungal. When Z attacks you with 40 roaches at 12min and when you are only 120 supply as Protoss, those FF need to be really good so that you can survive. And when that's pulled off, that is amazing. There aren't many things like this in SC2.

Then again these are my opinions and people are free to believe what they want.

SC2 units that benefit from positioning and control: all of them.

examples would be zergling surrounds, blink micro, splitting marines, getting a concave with ranged units, burrowed banelings, mutalisk control, siege tank positioning, moving roaches right beside enemy units so you dont have half your roaches milling around doing nothing behind the front line, flanks in ZvT and TvT, keeping broodlords over high ground wherever possible, etc.

I haven't seen those games, and I'm hesitant to pay to watch SC2 at this point. Are there any other games you would recommend?


If you don't watch the matches live, then this is a major problem because GomTV dominates the korean SC2 scene. GomTV VODs are paid, except the first match of the series.

It can be found on twitchtv. I don't remember the chanel but I think it was the IPL channel so it should be on there.

It's a really rough transition to make because as a Brood War fan (I played BW semi-religiously from 1998-2010), you expect SC2 to match, or at least come close to, what Brood War meant to you. Not only does SC2 not have the history, but the dynamics of the game are different:

1) Economic harass is much less effective since workers return fewer minerals per trip and can be replenished much more quickly.
2) Splash damage is much more prevalent, and micro-negating spells are unavoidable.
3) Both macro and micro are easier, but coming from the same approach that you seem to be, even "incredible" micro in SC2 does not come anywhere near how watching a BW legend feels, even on a bad day.
4) The BW term "strategic play" has become "cheese," and it isn't punished nearly as hard as it is in BW because of inject/chrono boost/mules.

This is how I felt about the game when I first transitioned after finding it impossible to play BW on my new PC. I've developed these opinions a little bit more and I still conclusively feel that BW is, and will always be, the better game, but SC2 is a pretty good replacement if there has to be one.

Apparently marine splitting can't compare? This post is just so wrong on so many levels. There is no limit to how good marine splitting can get just as one example. No human will ever be able to reach perfect splitting.

How about the Dark archon and arbiter having micro-negating spells that were just as unavoidable as a fungal growth? Stop looking at your favorite game with rose coloured glasses.


The arbiter had stasis, which didn't allow damage to be taken. The Dark Archon was almost completely unused in professional games because it was simply implausible to incorporate it given how much other multitasking was needed and how useless the unit was after one Maelstrom. Compare that to fungal, which not only negates micro but also causes damage, or forcefield, which potentially traps units completely and allows stalkers to outrange them, leaving you completely powerless. There are worlds of difference between how the spells act in each game, so it's not just wearing "rose coloured glasses."

Are you serious?

You made a topic that essentially downplays every aspect of SC2 while glorifying BW, and you want people to tell you how SC2 can become as enjoyable to you as BW is.

How would you go about that without comparing the two?

This thread is just going to grow into a hate/bashing thread. Honestly we shouldn't have to convince you on how to appreciate SC2 more. I just believe that it should come naturally. I watched a lot of tournaments and streams when I transitioned to SC2. It took some time to become familiar with the game, and when I did I grew to appreciate the game that much more. Basically what I'm saying is just try it out and decide for yourself.

Just because it is rarely used doesn't change the fact that there are movement impairment spells in BW too. That guy made it seem like BW was perfect which is ammusing to me. Neither is flawless.

Battles don't really end instantly in SC2. Death balls are becoming less and less prevalent, and you're seeing more and more positional play, or multiprong attacks, or multi-location harass while battles are being fought. BW forced you to have to spread out your units, and micro more thanks to bad unit pathing and small control groups. A lot of players in SC2 have used the better AI and control groups as a crutch, and even though they CAN spread out and have their units all over the map, they don't. Some, however, are doing stuff just like that.

Also, you have maps coming out that are more and more positioning-dependent for the outcome of battles. Cloud kingdom has been an excellent example of that, and it's produced some very different games. While BW and SC2 do have some differences, I think people are too quick to say that some of the things that made BW engagements great are gone in SC2. A lot of this stuff is still here, it's just not something players are FORCED to do. I'd also like to point out that the top tier of SC2 players have looked like they were playing a completely different game than everyone else. But then people caught up, and then the new top tier again changed the way people looked at how the game is played. Last october, no one would have even thought that you could manage baneling bombs effectively by predicting where your opponent burrowed them, then sending single marines out and shooting your own marine with tanks to take out the burrowed units without wasting a scan before you moved your units. But Jjakji did it last december during a GSL finals. And look at Marineking last night in the GSTL finals, and today in the IPL4. This guy is an absolute monster. He just does things that other people don't think to do, or don't have the physical ability to. You're dealing with a guy who, on a variety show Gom ran stutter step microed his marines without a keyboard. And it looked normal. EVEN THOUGH HE DID NOT HAVE AN "A" KEY TO PRESS. If you want to look at the game SC2 is becoming, even before the anti-deathball, space control units of HOTS provide, watch that guy. ST_Parting is a great protoss example, and MVP_Dongraegu is a good zerg one, if you're interested in seeing what this stuff looks like for other races. But as good as they are, marineking, right now, looks like he's in another league. He looks like the future.

No, i made a thread that highlights what i enjoy most about BW, and haven't seen in SC2. These were not criticisms, only observations.

You can't prove me wrong without comparing the two games, however you can do so without criticizing them.

I know but what discussion?Its about what you as individual like,no one can make you like apples if you like oranges more instead.If something interests you just go with it and don't try to overthink.No one gave you a motivational speech about why you should watch BW,you just liked the game and started watching it no?Do the same thing here.

Trust me, I've seen very boring games of broodwar and games that you find play that is just very lackluster. There are more games of SC2 to watch so of course you will find unexciting games from time to time.


I haven't seen those games, and I'm hesitant to pay to watch SC2 at this point. Are there any other games you would recommend?


The Blizzard Cup final, GSL May Semi final between sCfou and NesTea and the GSTL May final between SlayerS and Mvp. Theres plenty more games, and that's all from just one year of SC2, the second year the game is even released. Go figure.
