Just seems like they randomly decided to make the map harder for Zerg with mineral-only golds and rocks at every single expansion except the natural. I'm pretty sure thats why Ret was so far behind economically; you can't expand anywhere without taking out rocks, it just really dampens your ability to expand when you want to. It's the old first version of the map that was not approved for play by GSL. It has 4 gold no gas expands that benefit one race far more than the other, and has a small, easily forcefielded choke. Reason's why GSL changed it (and blizzard uses it) for use in a competitive tourney. | ||

They should probably start building evo chambers around them and stuff :D LOL its stupid how fast DTs take down even a hive. That hive was so close to dying. | ||

Makes for horrible games, really. | ||

Ret searches high and low, sleet and snow for Ace's scouting probe. After searching through many nooks and crannies, Ret finds and kills that probe. Ace's nat is up and running, and a nice pylon simcity is up. | ||

As the child grows, everyone compliments the child in terms of their parents. Oh, you're smart like your dad. Oh, you're so athletic like your mom. Oh, you're so handsome/attractive like both your parents. Etc. Then, as the child grows, people realize he/she is his/her own person. He/she may be smarter or less smart. He/she may be more attractive or less attractive. He/she has some good features of the parents, some bad, and some new ones (both bad and good). However, until the child has sufficiently aged and balanced out from "puberty" and "adolescence" it is tough to fully judge. Now imagine that child is SC2. The parents are BW. The puberty and adolescence is the growth of the metagame. You're welcome. | ||
