Standard LR thread rules apply. No caster bashing, no insulting the interviewers, no player bashing, no balance whining. Bans will be doled out to violators so don't shit up this thread with immature garbage. |

And risk getting mutas shredded by the marines below the raven? Plus, a quick terran can use PDD, kill mutas with marines AND save the raven. Pretty cool huh?

Yeah, the timing attack won't matter when it walks over a couple undetected banelings and 80% of your army is gone

Yea i mean, lets spend a ton of gas wich is needed for tanks on a crap unit just to detect some possible bane bombs..... terrans ALWAYS bank gas in late game unless they going mech, if so baneling mines are useless.

John Madden is the most successful football commentator of all time and his commentary consists of saying 90% totally obvious shit. "Now, in the National Football League, its very important that the quarterback be able to see where he's throwing the football."(Really? Cause I thought all the best quarterbacks were blind). "If you can't stop the other team from scoring, its going to be very hard to win games."(What? Outscoring your opponent correlates to winning? No way!) "Well, they're going for it on 4th and 1. Its a bit of risk, but if it works it could pay off" (um...isn't "if it works it could pay off" the definition of a risk) And yet, despite basically never saying anything that everyone doesn't already know, John Madden is THE definitive commentator, not just in Football, but in all American sports. "Insight" is VASTLY less important in commentary than a good voice, good chemistry with co-commentators, and the ability to maintain interest during lulls in excitement/crank up the energy even further when stuff gets crazy.
Yeah, pretty much true for any sport..
Some soccer ones: 'Forest have now lost six matches without winning.' - David Coleman 'If that had gone in, it would have been a goal.' - David Coleman 'Strangely, in slow motion replay, the ball seemed to hang in the air for even longer.' - David Acfield 'Forest have now lost six matches without winning.' - David Coleman
Still, such comments are very facepalm inducing.

Also another thing that ravens bring to the field is hunter seeker missile. I know people go "LOL you can micro out of it." But if Lucky is not paying attention his muta flock is gone and if he does micro out of it he is out of position and Boxer can push forward.

Lurkers cost more to make, do not kill 20 units at once instantly while baneling bombs do. Its just 1 example of starcraft 2 being inferior to BW in terms of that mechanic. Actually two stop lurkers in BW will kill twenty marines easy before a player has time to react.
Yeah, as someone who played Broodwar a lot and wasn't very good, running into lurkers was the most frustrating thing in the world.

I don't know why HD and PainUser are talking about BW... but Bisu and Reach yay!!!

Yeah, they sure did learn. They even learned how to nerf blue flame.

Or you lose the game when you're in a commanding position like Boxer did right there.

I don't think he was outmacroing him, I think his strategy was slightly better until he fudged up by forgetting to scan before moving his army forward.

I really like the other duos, would be a shame to leave us with this setup for the day.

HD intrupting Painuser when he was reciting his favourite BW terrans with " what about jaedong "
Wow. Just wow.

People whined about hellions for being such a low cost/risk unit. I guess it's only fair people get upset when stuff like that happen.
