Mass Muta so strong.

Getting ripped by it on ladder these days as well.. zerg found out how strong mutas are.

Mutas have been used for so long and have always been strong. SangHo made some stupid mistaked that cost him the game.

No, I prefer it. I don't care how it looks, I want all the information possible.

At IPL they had a poll and the majority wanted healthbars on, so they stuck with that.

And where is their own overlay on IEM? If you keep calling him FD (which he is) take 30 seconds to make an overlay and put the actual players names up there rather then using blizzard's horrid default name overlay

Sometimes Mr Bitter and Rotterdam choose different matches to cast on main stage depending of the importance of the match ( if someone needs to win a game to get top 2 in a group, compared to if the other game is 2 people going 0-2 or something).

I think when the next season starts Carmac will try to get intel and the other sponsors to put more money into IEM. If they don't they might get left behind compared to what MLG and other tournaments are putting out.


Are you serious!?
IEM is putting far more money than mlg they have a bigger price pool at their circuit events and at their grand finals. Please don't post bs like that if you don't even have an idea of what you're talking about.


I said when the next IEM season starts which is in 2012 when MLG plan to have $1.5 million for sc2


MLG also "planned" to increase the prizepool by a lot this year according to what was established prior to that statement and they failed to deliver.

Take their words with a grain of salt.

I am not trying to hate on mlg or something, but sundance sure loves to hype stuff even though it might not happen.

your post is so wrong T.T
i think they work really well together. and about their knowledge: rotterdam is probably the most skilled full time caster and bitter is pretty good aswell (high master i think).

lol, Rotterdam is more knowledgable than almost any other caster, and plays the game at a higher level than virtually anyone else casting regularly.

Bitter for his part is a very competent high masters Zerg...

Killer forced into an all in, don't like his chances in this

Rotterdam calls games wrong all the time it's not even funny. Mostly when a Protoss is involved.

I kind of missed the end, but didn't Killer have a favorable army there at the end or no? He still more than likely would have lost, but seems like he should have played it out.

HP bar always on is nice because we get more info and can see if units are weak or strong.

So many times in other tournaments I have no idea if units have 20% or 50% or full HP


You can see HP from the wireframe. It is seriously annoying to have the entire screen taken up by a bunch of colored bars

muta play is so annoying. just harass and then basetrade. as a protoss you will never get out of your base and die from time to time because zerg takes the whole map.


I'm wondering if we're going to see mass phoenix develop as a counter to this kind of style. I'm no pro but I can't see any real weakness mass phoenix would have if you were really good about using graviton beam.

observer can turn on hp bar with Alt button during battle.


I actually prefer health bars turned on. Would be nice to have some kind of poll showing what the average viewer prefers?

SC2 has been WAY more successful in 2011 than in 2010 for MLG, so it's extremely likely 2012 will feature a much bigger prize pool.

yea penixes tho? but maybe they should just launch nukes per attack and destroy muta balls in one shot........ Phoenix micro if u know how to micro can endlessly kite mutas. Unless u r a noob and dunno how to micro and just 1a ur phoenix into the mutas then yes u should lose all ur mutas

You've got to be kidding me, phoenix already destroy mutas unless they are greatly outnumbered. Archons/Templar are protoss's AOE method of dealing with muta.


Mutas will allways outnumber Phoenix and are way more useful overall.

He had 2 buildings left on the map with the entire zerg army attacking them and his army was across the map? Wasn't going to play that out.
