Obviously a unit that does nothing but attack is harder to use than a unit that can only attack 90% of units if you use its limited-use ability. Good lord. Part of me wants the patch to make zerg loloverpowered just so these Zerg players shut the hell up already. We get it, Zerg is UP. No one sane disagrees. But that doesn't make every zerg unit harder to use, it doesn't make every Terran or Protoss player garbage, it doesn't mean Zerg players don't make catastrophic mistakes that make them lose deservedly (See: IdrA). Our discussion has nothing to do with how good or bad Muta or Phoenix is. The thing is you don't really need to micro Phoenix, because it does everything for you, you only give commands to move. I mean you fly over Overlord and they kill it, you lift the worker and fly over it and it's killed.. is that so hard? It's just strange how Tasteless call that "Sick micro". | ||

" Having anatomical structures or physiological processes that are replaced or enhanced by electronic or mechanical components." It may well just be a mistake that Koreans call Terran bio bionic, but they just so happen to be very bionic anyway. | ||

Bionic: having particular physiological functions augmented or replaced by electronic or electromechanical components It should be used to describe biomech play really... edit: Actually I guess marines could be seen as bionic as their armour augments their physiological functions. | ||

I know, the last statement was in reference to saying things like rax, instead of barracks. I don't get why people try to dissect gamer slang. | ||

Every time I hear Artosis say bionic I think da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da and try to leap over a house. I was JUST about to post about this. Hearing "bionic" just grates on my ears for some reason... he knows the short term is "bio" and wants to be more professional and use the full term... but he uses the wrong word! Bio is short for biological, bionic is a cyborg and that term doesn't exist in SC2. I'm a fan of Artosis and his commentary style is growing on me, and he really works well combined with Tasteless... "bionic" is making my ears sad though | ||

Hmmm I dunno about that, Those Marine/Marauder suits definitely look like they could be considered to Electronically or electromechanically augment physiological functions. Edit: whoops I quoted the wrong post.fixed | ||
