Squirtle really seems like he has what it takes to be an amazing player. He just needs to fix up some sloppiness and he could be incredibly solid. He's definitely very versatile.

Haha, wow, 4-0 with sloppy play in most games (though Squirtle played well in the very last game against a vastly inferior opponent). Greatest moment was definitely the marine/marauder ball going back and forth on the ramp in game 4.

the collosus is no doubt one of the worst units added in sc2. i say this since almost a year now but outside of its flashy graphics its a terribly boring aclick unit thats so strong that you see them massed in evry game P plays.


note that my problem isnt the balance. its how boring they are (esp compared witht he reaver) and how easy they are to use.


I agree wholeheartedly. I can't believe they replaced the reaver with such an unimaginative unit.


Well.
They're an asston more expensive than reavers.
But you can say alot about the other AoE/splash units.
What about the lack of corsairs? Lurkers = .. banelings? :o


Phoenixes at least have some mechanics that make them interesting. While I miss lurkers, banelings have shown that they usually require/force a good amount of micro. If I had to describe the colossus, its defining characteristics are that it has 9 range, does aoe damage, has average movespeed, and can be shot from at air. While there are situations to micro them in, once you get the range upgrade they are mostly the definitive a-move unit, and that's what makes them so boring.

Rather disappointed with the level of play in that first set, seemed like a lot of little mistakes I wouldn't expect out of players at this stage.

Squirtle's play reminded me a fair bit of someone like Choya[Fou] except a bit more macro orientated, had some nice effective strats, some of his micro was very sloppy.

Well I'm ecstatic. Startale's my favourite team, and Squirtle's one of my favourite protoss, so this was cool

Would have really liked to see some of Rainbow, Bomber and July, but I can't complain about an All-Kill.

But yeah this definitely reinforces my belief that fOu is just bottom of the barrel right now.

That's true.
I guess it's a different situation because you never saw mass reavers...
I guess it's just SC2 as a game.
Micro really isn't THAT required vs BW.

Why couldn't Nuclear just tech to 1 medivac and elevator his whole army out to the side?
He could, he just doesn't have the skills to think about doing that.


Some people just get hung up on their build and they're like "OMG I CAN'T EXPAND MY BUILD IS FUCKED I CAN'T MAKE MY STARPORT YET" and they don't actually think about how to break out of the contain. It's actually pretty easy to break something like squirtle was doing.
