Casters shouldn't give hints to the players in between games, that should be obvious.

TvT in Sc2 would be the same if they just removed that goddamn Viking from from being so effective at preventing Medivacs drop plays and instead compensated mech by buffing Hellions (in some way).


yeah, more 2base tank/marine doomdrops is what SC2 TvT needs...

Why exactly is that a dumb thing to say? It seems that what you said is a really dumb thing to say.

Vs mech? Sure that wouldn't be bad. Mech now is pretty stale as Viking/Tank effectively prevents action from occuring. Marine/Tank vs Marine/Tank would basically be unchanged.

Nerfings mech "prevent fun stuff from occuring"-unit and buffings mech mobility (offensive harass unit) is imo a nobrainer.

Not really the type of stuff I enjoy. Not a real fan of clustfuck games in SC2, the game just doesn't spread out enough to make that fun like it was in the last game, since in Sbow both players had a ton of bases and killing one mineral line isnt dramatic. Instead you create scenarios in which people get to harass and win without taking risks in SC2, since they do it off 2bases and only expand once the opponent is too occupied to strike back at all (since you are able to attack/harass an opponent that is already taking damage only defending the tiny area of 2bases).

mech ruining fun is just issue with mech overall, in every match up in every game. sure it often spices up bio play and aggresive mech play is fantastic to watch but most of the time, its just stalling until you get to the deathball.

marine/tank TvT though... that's where the fun is


e: ok i guess those games instead of being dull are fucking sick, i havent seen a TvT like this since Innovation vs Flash on Whirlwind during that one MLG. this is absolutely the sickest :O

What do you mean? They didn't spread out in G1 very much. Neither player barely ever secured a 4th base in a 30 minute game.

The first two games of Ryung vs Innovation (from the group stages) was the same basically.

In Sc2, it can bascially never be like that as the strenght of mech relies on preveneting anything from happeneing and then massing OC's, suicidng workers and getting a shitton of Ravens. The supporte mobile option for mech is absolutely terrible in Sc2. I think they intentionally made the Hellion really bad due to the introduciton of the Mule + reactor. But IMO that could ahve been solved by giving it some type of midgame upgrade (or just removing the mule, that macromechanic is absolutely terrible for gameplay as well).
