nice joke bro

May sound funny, but when it come to mech Avilo look more solid to me

Avilo may have a better understanding of mech units but he plays passive because he's too slow to play anything else, its not some genius strategy by him.


He is not slow, he just understands attacking with mech is the losing strategy. Unfortunatelly, there are units in this game that forbids playing anything but defense IF you decide to play mech (SH, Immortal).


Actually a lot of people who play mech vs protoss go for 3 base timings with hellbat/tanks and ghosts. Immortals are totally useless once you take the shields out. But people keep forgetting that EMP with mech exists just to say that "mech sux" when they lose/don't play with it. Also immortals are terrible vs hellbats, in fact, at the same cost, hellbat/tank wins vs pure immortal (and protoss will never have pure immortal, but other less effective unist such as warpgate units)..

An issue we have as viewers is that we keep repeating some statements such as "SH vs mech is boring" and just repeat them over and over, and that affects people who are viewing and makes them think it is boring because you look away from the finesse and gameplay and instead focus on "endless free units wow" and ignore things like positioning, macro, split map or whatever else can be interesting to focus on.

swarm hosts vs mech is very interesting, as soon as the terran is sucessfully able to transition into mass air i don't see a single possibility for the zerg to win and that's where it becomes boring in my eyes.

even soulkey vs reality was very very exciting to a certain point. sometimes games end in a very boring "nothing" though, a stalemate. but it very rarely happens in games with players of this caliber.

He meant control neural imho. And thors attacks sky unit first if they can deal damage to them, raven and viking dont.

Is the viewer number only for Starcraft II? In that case I'm very impressed.

I think swarmhosts vs mech games are the most boring thing in the universe. Everyone is entitled to their taste/opinion, no need to try to convince the other side who's right and wrong. Games like this in my experienceare why people stop watching SC2, I have to give huge props to ToD and Khaldor because they made it VERY entertaining - whether they truly liked it or not it was good to follow. I also feel as a T player you gotta work so much harder due to the fact that he's trading free unit all game while you're loosing minerals/gas repairing or simply dying. It used to be that Z was the one that had worst-trade off in units-lost tab and rightly so, now it's Terran. lol

I think SH vs mech can be superboring a lot of the time, but what I wanted to bring to attention is that the community has a tendency to just endlessly repeat certain phrases no matter if it's viable to the situation. And it affects people who watch and cheapens the game

No, camping is a losing strategy, at least against any zerg above masters.

Avilo vs Snute would be hilarious.

seriously amazing one of the best games ever


What? I'm a protoss and TvZ is my favorite matchup to watch, but that was just disgusting as hell. My opinion is that there was nothing amazing watching an hour long game and knowing the result all the way from the point Snute started sitting on swarmhosts.

As you mentioned before you're an MMA/Acer fan and have been doing nothing but hate on whatever MMA loses to. The abducts, fungals, battles at multiple locations constantly, mind control. You may be a psychic but I don't think anyone else knew he was going to win that.


My opinions and tears would be the same no matter which terran was fighting that.

"On whatever MMA loses to", nope that's just swarmhosts.

It blows my mind how you would simplify that game to just swarmhost in order to justify your hate for them.


I guess the thing people hate about SH is that if you don't know what to do exactly (which MMA just barely realised throught the entire game) vs them, you will lose in a slow painful death and it just looks so easy for the Zerg. On the other hand, if you know what to do, you get 10h games where nothing happens until someone just randomly loses.

I think this game was so interesting, because MMA went through learning process during the game and lost so much while doing so, which ultimately made this game so entertaining.
