Someone should tell the lighting people at this event that they are making the casters look sickly.

Seems that Huk took down the tweet about Redbull's computers.

good on him, someone should never be trashed for correcting a bad decision


I agree, we should praise him for being mature enough to take down the tweet that he made in a spurt of anger. Doesn't always happen.

Day9 talks about Scarlett going roaches for about a minute while Scarlett makes 7 more mutas.

in fairness to day9, someone who isn't familiar with scarlett's zvz could reasonably expect her to switch into roaches like a sane person

there used to be some sort of transition to ultras some people used to play, but nobody does that anymore


omg I got bored and tried that build on ladder once a few weeks ago. I'm pretty sure it just doesn't work in HotS with spore buff. (you are talking about upgraded lings into muta into ultra right?)

Polt - Seriously, does no one want to play?

TL should make a movie starring the LRers about what goes on between the players when they're not playing during a tournament.


We should get everyone with over 10k posts to play someone other than them.

I can easily play Polt. Or Taeja. Easily.


A potato sitting on a keyboard could play as TaeJa in a movie.

I could also be the best avilo you've ever seen.


Why do you guys mention Avilo so often? He's like..never relevant. Not unless you're talking about most nukes in a game.

Nor is huk. Somehow, AM players manage to keep attention to themselves .


Uhh what? Don't disrespect.....

I never understood why you'd go roach harass without burrow and burrow movement, it makes roaches about 1 thousand million, billion times more annoying and hard to deal with.

sometimes if you invest 250/250 in burrow play you just die to a push. it's certainly a nice skill play, but how it plays out is different each time

there's absolutely no reason not to get it after you max out though

It is not like muta can harass your base with spores anyways.

Roaches with no speed off creep will take horrendous losses trying to cross the map, and the muta player will have spines and lings to surround. You really need speed and either infestors or hydras.

I guess that's true given that 250 gas is 10 roaches or 20 supply, and that 20 supply can be a real deal breaker in certain situations.

yeah you have to scout the spire and do the roach push as the mutas are building and popping, not after you go "oh shit" because they're killing your extractors

But HuK is a tournament competitor. To get yourself some Avilo you have to follow him on social media and/or watch his stream.

Yeah, 10 roaches can be a LOT of roaches in an engagement during those stages, I never actually realized how expensive of an investment the burrow play can be.

it's a lot better if you use it to heal your roaches after skirmishes too, that's a really underrated play. point is you have to be absolutely committed to doing really strong harass if you're going to invest in it early. sniping the roach warren to prevent an overwhelming rally is a great move if you can get into the main. roach vs roach, while boring for non-z spectators, is super super technical to play :D very skill based

That would explain why I die a lot when I research burrow/tunneling claws but kick ass once I get it out...

Yeah, and you have some time to do it tho. It is not like Scarlett instantly popped hive - great spire - broodlords. He was too passive after he saw the mutas like "i am just gonna do mah thing" imho.
