a lot of TB fans don't follow the sc2 scene much and just watch these games because they like TB's casting


If thats the case, you could say TB is "growing e-sports!"


He are. Him and Husky has brought the sc 2 scene huge amount of new fans and thats why it really makes me mad when I see people allways dissing his casting.

Wonder how the new warhound will fit mech instead of Thor.. A bit worried, it might be good TvP, but TvZ - it's got shorter range and Terrans are going to be so weaker to tech switches I guess..

Man. That unit. When Terran sieges up a position with tanks in mech style, just convert half of the Hellions to those things. The position will just be that much tougher to break. It's fucking ridiculous actually.

That are battle hellions, he means the mini thors

Ya, I caught that. Those warhounds are too fast, looks ridiculous. The idea of thors is to have 1 at each base or a couple left behind to deal with muta Counter pushes. But they just had to make a more mobile version because 90% of people were too dumb to figure that out, so they just made em faster for better 1 hotkey action.

Well, thors are actually pretty solid against ground targets as well but these warhounds would have absolutely no use besides shooting clumped up mutalisks. They get bonus damage against mechanical ground targets and are most likely terrible against biological.

So you get a mini-thor that is useless against any zerg ground unit, seems like a nerf overall to me. In fact I can't justify making them in TvZ if they remain in their current form.


We can assume that they will be less population than thors. If you can get 3 for 2 pop, like goliaths most likely, I suspect that they will be better than thors.



Their ground attack will only be good against mechanical unit. Zerg don't have any. :-(

So make more than one type of unit?

Why make an unit that is only useful against one single unit in the zerg army when you can just make marines instead?
Why make up your mind now on a unit when we aren't even in beta? You can't possible imagine any circumstances where you can incorporate the warhound against zerg? Saying they aren't good against zerg ground is just mindless theorycrafting.

Actually I did state in a previous post that it would be no use in its "current state", I'm not expecting it to stay this way because it was obviously a rough first draft of the unit.

However, since there were people speculating how frikkin' strong the unit would be, I was just pointing out that with the information we have it really isn't. I'm not making up my mind about anything, just stating what we know of the unit so far.

Totally agree. Both of them are enthusiastic, happy people who work incredibly hard often for very little pay. I really wish they would get the respect they deserve.

Holding third as protoss in this map looks very VERY difficult, for what i've seen lately in tourneys

It's extremely hard. You are pretty much forced to do a 2 base attack to secure your third.

i'm one of those. really started watching/following because of TB's casts. i've since started watching more of other people's castings (some are seriously crappy) but still primarily watch and follow through TB's casts.

Well, grubby shouldnt have attacked the 3base ret when his 3rd finished... lost a lot and achieved nothing. 3vs3 base is fine, no?^^

True, that was horribly one sided. But the ratio of awesome games to crappy ones seems massively skewed towards awesome! Wonder why this is.

how is a protoss supposed to be able to hold a third base (and hence not die horribly) on duel sight? it seems to be one of the worst for them even compared to metalopolis? I hate that map

anyone got REAL suggestions not just random bs that wouldnt work which a lot of people seem to give as "advice" in the forums. also how awesome has the quality of games been in SCI4?? :D Sooooooo goooooood!

Theoretically yes but Grubby's gas reserves were really low after that attempt to get Ret's 3rd, so many stalker warpins. He could have sat back and turtled but I think Ret would have over-run him regardless
