They usually dont do it when casting Offline events together, I just assume it is much harder to play off eachother when having a delay.
GG! Seems like that is what most PvZs boils down to now days.

If you are being attacked by a DT during a big battle 1) if the battle is big enough, will the red cursor over your main where drones are dying disappear or 2) if the battle is big enough, you won't hear the voice?
If the former, how quickly does the red cursor disappear. As for the latter, doesn't the voice only speak once?
There is no voice because the drones are one shot. Worker attack warnings only happen if they survive the first hit.

Yeah he is incredibly aggressive, July style.

What a brutal style from Vortix.

I'm guesssing it's because he couldn't afford anything else cos he lost his third.

Casual viewers are the majority 2 years after game launch?

Well at that point he was mined out in his main and his third nexus was down so all he had was excess gas.

But there's a cursor right? I know there is some warning.
And what was the significance of the big battle Husky was talking about?

That is a problem too but having graphics needlessly maxed aswell makes it much harder to follow

Yes. A lot more people watch the game compared to how many play it at a reasonable level(or at all for that matter.)

Nice game by Vortix. Except letting a DT camp in his undefended base of course :p

well, i think he simply hoped vortix remaxes on roach rather than dropping over and over again. he also had excess gas and no HT-->Archon tech available to dump it.
still a questionable move though
