I much preferred when he listened to dubstep and the like. EDIT: A few good ones appeared after a while. But generally, much worse song selection. | ||

As the qualification period for the SHOUTcraft America tournament enters its final stage, ladder position now matters more than ever. While this has brought competition to the ladder it has also brought less above-board methods to ensure that player ladder rank remains intact. We have uncovered evidence that some players have been engaging in forced-draws in order to maintain their ladder rank. Several players within the top 16 have multiple ties on their match history in which the build order clearly indicates that both players consenting to a mutual draw in order to maintain their ladder rankings. This is probably our fault, we did not specifically prohibit this behavior, however we think it is clear to see that it is against the spirit of the competition. Since we did not outline regulations against this behavior, we will be offering a one time amnesty for it. Win-trading and forced draws are against the qualification rules for SHOUTcraft America. Ladder points must be accrued in a legitimate fashion, by beating the opponent fair and square. We should also remind players that the account they are playing on must belong to them and any boosting to the account being done by players other than the primary user of said account, is against the qualification rules. Blizzard is working with us to individually verify each account and needless to say they have logged all IP addresses used to access these accounts. If it is found that multiple players have played on the account in order to rank it up during the qualification period then that account will be subject to disqualification. The win-trading and the forced draws stop right now. There will be zero tolerance for this behavior going forward. Those ladder points are not worth your qualification spot, do not risk being disqualified. | ||

Let me explain to you why this gives zerg a huge advantage over Terran when it comes to games that include both Banelings and Widow Mines: - If the zerg show banelings to a terran he does not know for certain there will be burrowed banelings. Whilst if the terran show widow mines to a zerg he can immediatly make a few overseers because he know that there will be burrowed mines. - If a zerg researches overlord drop and overlord speed he can drop banelings on top of the enemy army and/or in their mineral line and immediatly blow up. Whilst a terran that drop widow mines still have the burrowing period where the zerg player can react. I also saw that you said there are no way to clean up widow mines for free. There are plenty of ways actually, there are units with longer range than widow mines, Hydralisks and Stalkers for example. Also there are a few cool tricks that can be done to dodge the mine when it fires, for example you can have a drone run in range of the widowmine and start building a sporecrawler when the mine pops up and baaam - the mine wont hit the drone (sure you waste a few minerals but you dont lose as much as if the drone would have died, and you save larva), terran bio units can dodge mine shots by entering a bunker and im not sure but i think you can dodge mine shots by picking up the unit that is targeted (i havnt tested this tho). From reading all of your posts on the last 5 or 6 pages i can tell that you have a simelar mindset as IdrA, instead of trying to find solutions or improvements you only complain and bitch because it makes you feel better about yourself. | ||

Baneling drop is under used IMO, but in terms of killing armies, isn't very good. Especially terran armies. Overlords with speed are MUCH slower than marines, and if there are widow mines present, you're going to lose a lot of overlords before you connect. The burrowing period on widow mines is fast enough that if you only have drones there, you can't stop it. With the upgrade, you have to have units right where it wants to burrow. The main issue I think I have with widow mines is the speed of the shots they fire. As it stands, you CAN mitigate the damage with splitting, but there's no way to know for sure which unit is targeted, and therefore any mitigation will be luck based, and usually still result in a lot of low/dead units. I think widow mines would still be viable and strong if the shots moved somewhere between current speed and half that! | ||

I was more implying he must be himself depressed/depressive, while when he streamed dubstep and other faster styles he seemed more energetic and played a LOT better. Not really complaining as I took off my headphones for most of the time he was streaming. You don't really need to be this rude. Although I wasn't really clear on my post, and left a lot to be figured out. | ||
