[SC2B] Terranical
April 4th, 2010 18:05 GMT
Our Beta coverage was on semi-hiatus these two weeks, but after a cracker article from Drone we're back with more beta goodness in the form of Sean "Day[9]" Plott's Team Liquid Beta Cast. In Episode 4 he is joined by TL's resident Terran-in-hwaiting Jonathan "FrozenArbiter" Walsh aka Liquid`Jinro, a crazy swede with a penchant for pulling off sick plays.
Tune in as this duo talk about everything from Marauders and their role in TvX to the mighty Thor and how Jinro has found good use for them. In fact, he says he hasn't used bio in TvZ for over a month - find out why inside! Top that all off with some US vs Euro gameplay comparisons, and you've got a podcast bristling with awesomeness. So, what are you waiting for? Click below and dive right in!
How to Listen to Ogg Vorbis The format of the podcast has been changed from mp3 to ogg. Here is a list of software that plays ogg on windows, mac and linux. Almost all media players (with the exception of Apple products) will be able to play Vorbis with no additional requirements.

Thanks I really enjoyed this.
Day[9] I have done the mass queen strategy during placement matches and yea it's a lot of fun... also confuses the hell out of your opponent and sometimes makes them feel really bad LOL
|
good stuff 
|
We're back at beta podcast #1 again? 
|
Thank you to this man.
Was about to request an mp4 version. I only listen to these things on my Ipod, as I need something to kill the time on my bus rides.
|
Thanks day9 and FA. As a terran player it was an interesting 30 minutes.
|
FrozenArbiter's voice is so incredibly sexy. Damn, I wish I could have an accent like that.

That was a super cool podcast guys. I'm going to be definitely playing with more Thors in my game now. Also just to recap? I can't remember but was it US players crying Protoss as to strong in PvT or EU players.
|
awesome. I hope i get to see more thor drops now on the streams
|

FA has a very strange cadence in addition to his accent. It's like everything he says sounds like it should have a question mark after it, but not in the valley-girl type of way, it's something slightly different.

Well, it's hard to say because it's ever shifting - I think currently it's a bit up in the air as to who is actually favoured in that matchup... Some say Terran, some say Protoss.
But yes, for a while US users were like "P>T" and Euro users thought T>P.
But this is basically from last patch.

US players say or said that P>T but EU players generally think or thought that T>P.

Day[9]'s voice is so incredibly soothing ~
|
Finally! :D Thanks for the awesome podcast action

I don't understand how you can make a blanket matchup statement without talking about the maps, but that's me.

Nice amount of information and I like your voice FA :D

Nice cast. I tried that ridiculous 10 gas, 11 rax, 11 fact, 11 port, 11 depot banshee build, and it worked pretty well (although I had to switch to MediMarine + Thors to finish the guy). This podcast taught me a bunch of stuff that I wish was in Liquipedia2!
|
really good cast, nice to hear
|
where can i get previous casts?
|
Very nice.
I think I may replace all of my music with Day[9]'s voice.

Dude, that's like the best idea!
I mean come on, why do I have 16gb of space on my iPod anyway?? This is the answer!
cheers dude

Nice podcast. Wouldn't listen it instead of my music like in a gym or on a bus but good nonetheless.

Thanks for the cast.
I was basically listening two Terrans but you never mention maradeur problem which is going in threads. Do you think that they are too cost-effective and doesn't force terran to tech? So much good units like Thors, Raven, banshee, vikings are rarely seen in last TvZ and TvP matches :-(
|
Thanks for that, very enjoyable to listen into (as always).
|
|
|
thank you so much... embedded player is such a nice touch to this already amazing site.
|
Oh man, I'm in love with that accent. I see why day9 has man love for jinro <3

Really dumb question, but is this a "true" podcast that can be subscribed to through iTunes and automatically downloaded? Didn't see anything in this or the previous 3 threads so I guess not, but just making sure >_<

Do anyone have a link to the replay?
I've tried to search the forums but couldn't find it, maybe because I don't know how to spell CauthonLuck. I believe I've seen it somewhere...
Thx.
Edit:
Nevermind finaly found it:

Thanks a lot.
To the OP; how can you call it a "podcast" when it cannot be played on an iPod, iPhone or other i-thingies?
Next time please add it as a MP3/MP4 as well to make it more easily available for everyone.

There's a reason why we don't have it in mp3, if we can change it in the future we will, but currently we can't.
|
Is there an RSS feed available for this podcast, so that I can subscribe to it through an aggregator?
|
Great stuff as usual!
EDIT: I second; RSS would be awesome.

If you save it with a lower bitrate and sample rate you can save it as an mp3 and it will be just as small as the ogg file. There's really no reason not to save it as mp3/mp4. Ogg is only smaller because it uses (from memory) 22kbps and 32khz by default, whereas most mp3 encoders are set to 128kps and 44.1khz by default.
That said, it's not really a huge problem. A google search turns up perfectly good converters on the front page.
Thanks heaps for the cast guys. Fantastic as always.
