Hero will crush Huk ! Liquid fighting!


Well we can hope but crushing someone PvP is somewhat random I would say. I mean losing like 2 stalkers can just make you die instantly early game so its very hard to predict

well, it's a great way to punish a greedy zerg, and some nice micro to top it off

Newflash! How do you avoid it? I know many people claim its op and others simply say no, but no denier of it being OP has yet said what zerg should do to combat vortex aside from being MORE than two bases ahead. Even then.... huk vs aria...

Huk vs Aria wasn't a serious game at all. Aria threw random comps at huk the whole time, anyone who understands the game can see how silly it was.

Zerg's CAN spread. When its Mothership/Archon against mass BL the Z has to play it kind of like a Terran. Slowly push, spread out broods, protect them. If you just 1a in and stack up, you WILL LOSE. Its the fact that Zerg players aren't used to slow pushing with slow units, they're used to swarming into the slow push and breaking it.


Wow that actually makes so much sense lol, they have to do them as if they were tanks but they don't because they are air units which means they are super mobile (easy to get into positions, not necessarily fast)

i know how to beat the toilet. mass banes and put them in the toilet along with the archons. boom.
wow you're really smart!

... stfu


no you stfu. what would happen though I never tried.
Banelings auto-detonate and nothing dies because of the ~1.5 second immunity after being vortexed (the "fix" to the archon toilet, but still works vs only Broodlords.)

I don't get why ppl think HuK is sooo much better than Hero...that play right there showed skill far beyond anything HuK/Puzzle has shown EVER!

He threw one spell on the ramp? Props to Hero, amazing Protoss, but I feel people are "over-hyping" that little play there. It is really something easy to perform at that level. I myself have no idea why protoss don't do it more often, especially on some of those more zerg favored maps like Dual Site, makes the two base push even stronger when cutting out the other hatch or two.


Aren't you a bronze player? Shhhh

It's not remotely easy to pull off. His sentry micro was sick.


Eh, it was almost unneeded though. By the time he had to micro his sentries, he had already killed most of the drones and the Hydralisk Den. It's not easy to do it like Hero, but it's definitely an abusive build, and it is easy to pull off a shittier version of it.

He's actually correct tho lol. Even if it's not practical.

Well you would need to be insanely fast to hold position the banes to prevent them from blowing up before the 1.5 sec


Don't hotkeys work?

That's pretty much the most complicated form of drop play you can pull off in sc2 rofl.


Says alot about the game though...

Apparently MKP used a mass BC/Raven strategy against the Zerg Darkcell.

Me too, but who is he?? Just caught the last bit.


That man is Rob "voice" Simpson, aka the Head Esports Manager of Blizzard Entertainment and a man that does great things behind the scenes of the SC2 scene. Quite a baller caster too.

If you google some of the old Battle Reports from the Beta, you'll recognize his voice. He's done a lot of interviews and BlizzCasts (Blizzard's PodCast) in the past too.

MLG needs to go to major cities if they want a hype crowd. I mean who lives in Rhode Island besides the Griffin family?
