If even pro Zergs don't micro, then Raven works. Why bother thinking about 10 years from now when Zerg starts microing and theorycraft that Raven is bad? Just use them and win. Zerg can split? Sure, as if you cannot split raven...

Pro Zergs eventually learnt to micro against Vortex Archons, even if they still painfully fail at times. Why wouldn't the same thing occur for Ravens? Not to mention that getting a Raven fleet is way harder than building a Mothership.


Let's complain when that finally happens.

Actually it already happens when the Zerg player does not go into Zombie mode.


and when it's a map not named atlantis/metropolis

When did this happen? Does he still practice in America?


From wiki: He left Team Empire on July 2nd, 2012. On August 1, 2012 it was announced via YouTube by Cyber Sports Network that viOLet would be sponsored by Azubu and would be known as AZUBUviOLet.

We all have that. It happens in most tournements, even on TV never noticed it ?


But I meant really by faaar louder, so its almost blows my ears, when the commercials start...


Yeah, feels like watching The Daily Show online ... but unfortunately its kinda common problem, especially on twitch tv from what I noticed ...

On German TV its statutorily regulated btw (afaik)

Wow; just saw the results from group A. Half korean, half foreign, and only 1 korean makes it through. Surprising. Also, pleasantly surprised to see the EG results :D

I will do at a later time. My access to them is a little better than for the average visitor, so they should get them when they have the chance.

Just learn to play the game.

Just read the posts people who actually know what they're talking about have made on this.

Starcraft isn't a game where you just summon good units out of nowhere, you have to consider transitioning to them, being safe in the interim, the possibility of your opponent techswitching etc etc


So you simply ... learn to play the game...Thx .

Yeah I'll take the advice of a trash poster who doesn't have any idea what he's talking about and doesn't expand on his points. I suppose if you tried to expand on them you'd prove your ignorance so one sentence 'learn to plays' help you hide your miniscule knowledge of the game.


Stop crying ...if terran nowadays dont know how to play with ravens its ok ... at least someone knows and guess what ... hes MVP...so go back to your world where "Ravens are bad".

Please tell us more about the incredible no split from Nestea which allowed Ravens to be good.


Why would he split if he didnt even see the ravens before? ...

That was all MVP strategy ...

I am not arguing that Ravens are bad based on nothing, unlike your 'Ravens are good because of one game'. I play Protoss anyway so it's really not a matter of learning how to play another race to the level where I can prove my points are right.

Ravens are good in a game where drop play takes out numerous hatcheries and Nestea shows no aggression, the entirety of the game, AND engages badly at the end. Oh and on a split map.

It's not Ravens being good or bad that I'm arguing about, I'm pointing out piss-poor posting with no reasoning given for the points put forth, or comprehension/response being made to other posters who take the time to fucking actually write decent posts.

The nearest equivalent I can think of is claiming that Mass BC/Ghost vs Mothership/Archon/Stalker is viable PvT because of Squirtle vs MVP in the GSL final on this very map. There are innumerable reasons as to why that was a pretty unique game, without much application for other maps. That last game re the Raven is exactly the same
