yeah true. emp's CAN be beautiful cause it actually matters where you place them, but fungal/storm.. :D they should stop doing that


I think it harkens back to the days of BW where casting spells was a 5 step process that involved waiting at the DMV and then heading to the bank to get a loan to cast some storms.

Lmfao yeah

Micro and army control in sc1 was just much more impressive and a bigger feat than in sc2 though, overall

yeah true. emp's CAN be beautiful cause it actually matters where you place them, but fungal/storm.. :D they should stop doing that

When Protoss use storms like forcefields to stop the marauders retreating from the zealots. Those are beautiful storms.

There are definitely times when all of the AoEs can be absolutely beautiful. It just seems like in GSL or any other tournament it happens 100% of the time without fail lol. At least according to the commentators. random forcefield that does nothing... BEAUTIFUL FORCEFIELD OH YEA NOTHINGS GOING THROUGH THAT

Yeah I know what you mean. I'm not just whining about P either - I'm a zerg and it's not particularly hard to land fungals (press f and click), but in commentaries it's all like "OMG THAT FUNGAL SUCH A GREAT FUNGAL".

It's a bit ambiguous, but it CAN be defined as a great fungal. If a caster ever said WOW that player is so good at fungal growthing I'd probably want to kill myself

Lets be honest... most of the storms / emps / fungals we see are good and save the day more often than not.. Its not like they are blindly saying that, they see the AoE hit units, it already classifies as a good AoE.

they don't say OMG SICK BANELING BURROW every time they pop. *add reference to bad banelings unburrows here*

I dream of one day seeing Forcefields surrounding the enemy army and then witness massive storms kill everything.

I have the same dream, except for me it's a nightmare.

Who do you guys put out vs July if sculp loses? San or Sage? I feel like you have to save Jjakji because bomber is more vulnerable TvT than TvP


Good point, San has very, very good PvZ, as shown against NesTea in GSTL season 4 and Sage did that crazy build we saw him do last time that made everyone love him, so it's a tough choice.

CC goes down at the natural for sculp and a third barracks to complete the wall.

They definitely can be really nice, but some much more than others. I feel like fungals are probably the least exciting, because they hold the enemy in place so there's no account for movement like with storms. But good storms, forcefields, emps vs feedbacks and just feedbacking 20 units in like 1 second, are really impressive.
