Scarlett is back for our second set of DH9 Mod Showmatches, this week facing off against Team Redbloods' PiLiPiLi!
Tensions have been running high between Scarlett and PiLiPiLi ever since their meeting in the WCS NA qualifiers and we are excited to bring you their epic grudgematch! To make things more interesting, this match will be played on the DH9 Economy Mod and we're sure that both players will be bringing out new and interesting builds to suit the changes in economy.
The GrudgeMatch will be a Bo7 series played on the current map pool.
Prize Pool:
$75 CAD for first place
$25 CAD for second place
Make sure to check out the match on Saturday, May 02 12:00am GMT (GMT+00:00) at the Bacon Infinity Twitch channel!
EDIT: JaKaTaK will now be joining us as co-caster/analyst of the event. Make sure to show him some love on Twitch and Twitter

Exactly, having DH8/9/10 in HotS is pointless.

I do not think it is possible to upload it to LOTV beta? Or is it?

You can't run mods on LotV atm

How is this a grudgematch? Do these two dislike each other?

Pili knocked Scarlett out of one of the WCS qualifiers. Scarlett tried to get revenge in a ESL NA tournament but when they met in the finals Pili's keyboard broke and couldn't play, so this is the rematch

I think it's better actually, because right now we need to see how a change in economy can affect the metagame and the strategies, and the best way to test this is to put it in a game that's already been played for 2 years. In LotV, the economy change would be overshadowed by all the weird strategies/imbalances. I can't word it properly but I hope that you get what I mean.

I don't mean to be weird, but is anyone else noticing how attractive Scarlett's looking in this press photo?

I disagree that it's pointless. The main point of these matches is to showcase provable differences from the vanilla game configuration, and that is more easily demonstrated in a more established metagame than in a very new one that is currently in flux. Particularly given the recent LotV patch that severely nerfed what was currently a core zerg unit, in the Ravager.
Granted, I still think that we should be demonstrating on a mod that has a more severe efficiency curve between 8 worker saturation and 16 worker saturation, just to showcase the difference. But I'll try to keep my proselytizing to the more relevant threads.

Please, let Scarlett know that expanding is more beneficial in DH9, but it is not a must have!
I felt, in the previous showmatch, that she felt it is obligatory and that she was taking some unnecessary risks when doing so...
DH9 is just a small nudge to the economy...

She has been doing some more theorycrafting about the mod so we will see what she comes up with this time!
Last week we did see that she was getting a pretty large income boost but it just wasn't enough to counter the hyper aggressive play of Parting, we will see what she has planned for PiLi

Looking forward to it, thank you again for making it happen!
Also, if we could hear from the players - afterwards - what is their opinion on DH9 and how it affected their play...
I don't expect too big changes, but maybe some
