It was just a loss due to no detection

The problem with Burrow is that when you burrow you can take damage during the animation. With Blink you take 0 damage during the animation. Burrow will never be Blink. To be fair Roaches are dirt cheap. Mmm speed/burrow upgrade included? Speed and Burrow are cheap also ![]() It was just a loss due to no detection | ||

It renders the burrow micro we'd like to have pretty useless unless they just don't have detection. | ||

Real problem is that close position always turn out to be rush games, as in they only last around 10 minutes, it's boring to watch and to play. Exactly. The actual problem is that if you're organizing a tournament like this and you add close positions into the mappool, then there really is just no words to say. Either Blizzard really wants to get the message "Look people, close positions games aren't that bad.", the "that bad" part being a quick rush/all-in, which almost always results in uninteresting play, or are they are really clueless and don't know that there are versions of ST without close positions. | ||

And you guys are saying "it's balanced now"...seriously? Not balanced, but this is Blizz's tourney. Naniwa knew coming in that close pos was a possibility. If he didn't like it he doesn't have to play (eg. NASL). Who even cares if it's balanced or not, it just makes shitty game like the one we just saw, loses his first sentries and he's in deep shit game is over within 10 minutes. | ||

He donated ~10 sentries, he fucked himself, he wasn't outplayed the slightest. yeah seems like a lot of people don't appreciate exactly how bad losing about 8 sentries in exchange for a ling or two early game is | ||

And since everybody knows that (except Blizzard), no one practices close pos and it just becomes a coin-toss when you have it in a tournament. | ||

Since when can't you interview the loser? in other sports the loser team always gives interviews, why not here? I understand the players are pissed but they have to be professional. | ||
