Seriously I have played TvP against protoss player who have more higher apm than me and macro and yet they still lose to me although I have only 8 factories in the late game while he has 30 gates producing goons and zealot from gateway all the time . I think this is some sort of a ignorant opinion most sc2 fans have they think that bw is all about having superior mechanics and not using strategy to win the game People that wére (not saying all) relying on mechanics, will not be able to be as dominant in sc2 as they were in bw. That's how i read his post. and i can (at least partly) agree with that. Making a game more reliant on strategy compared to mechanics gives a shift in the needed skillset. the other way round would be exactly the same.  | ||

Making a game more reliant on strategy compared to mechanics gives a shift in the needed skillset. the other way round would be exactly the same. Look my example I gave was my mechanics wasn't really good and my strategy provided me an advantage over my superior mechanic opponent although my macro was only at best being able to produce the units when I want to . Than again he clearly stated that we bw oldies are merely superior because we have superior mechanics and that's not true . Strategy does play apart in to the mechanics that is implemented in broodwar . Also if you want to make a game more reliant on strategy total annihilation and supreme commander series is a better game than sc2 in that department . With mechanics out of the question and resources are actually mine automatically without any user control you can focus on strategy all the time ... How can we read the future and say that oh just because he relies merely on mechanics he must be a no brainer and won't perform well in a STRATEGIC game like sc2 . | ||

http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=333959 I'll edit in relevant info instead of bumping the thread a bunch, though I'm sure a big post on the BW forum will happen, too. Edit: KeSPA to run SC2 league. Confirmed. There will be a proleague with SC2 (no word on BW as yet), and an individual SC2 league on OGN | ||

TeamLiquidLIVE All four parties are united in believing that Starcraft II is the future of eSports. More nails in that BW coffin. TeamLiquidLIVE Okay, next season of PL will have SC2 (duh). No official word on mixed with BW, or just SC2 tho "Details about the schedule, participation requirements, etc for the next PL season will be released later" Well, I'm officially pissed...even though I knew it was probably going to be this anyways.  | ||

A: We don't know if this is the last BW OSL or not, it all depends on a lot of conditions. I think this is evidence for my theory that they're hoping to fund BW with SC2? | ||

There's no analgous shuttle reaver or sair dt micro that a Stork or Bisu can pull off to overcome all and win. Bisu as a terran and hell especially Flash is going to show how incomplete SC2 is. | ||

The protoss and zerg titles need to change. With all the freaking zergs in the Starleagues it should be the protoss overcoming all and the zergs with their victory after victory.
