Often you talk about experimenting with things or someone says something in chat and you're like "hm never thought of that before, good idea!" which is fine but I feel the theme and reason for watching the Day9 Daily changing. To be honest I'm surprised you're doing so much SCII. I thought you would continue doing BW with something like 1 beta cast a week. With BW you know the game so well from years of experience and that shows itself in very insightful commentary, I'm really missing that  I mean, SCII isn't figured out. There's no such thing as high level play yet because everyone is still in sandbox mode, so I don't really see the point in commentating on it while BW is still right here with players like Flash. But I guess this goes back to what I said earlier, that the point of the show is changing. How so? From what I've gleaned by watching the Day[9] Dailies, it's about teaching the noobier (i.e. expansive) portion of StarCraft players how to improve their game, augment their strategies and to be wary of sneaky plays depending upon their opponent and/or map selection. It is true that the SC2 Beta is ever-changing, and so will tactics & strategies; the Day[9] broadcast still offers in-depth insight and general "rules of thumb" despite the Beta factor. Just because Korean players aren't making bank on StarCraft 2 yet doesn't mean players should ignore it. In fact, the headstart that the more competitive folk get on the rest of the herd is a much bigger boon for players than analyzing the StarCraft of yesteryear; it may break the hearts of many, but StarCraft 2 is geared up to be the new StarCraft of e-sports and it's here--not just to stay--but to grow. | ||

I used the search function but either I`m stupid or I am the first to encounter this problem. In the spoiler tag I added a screenshot. + Show Spoiler + http://www.abload.de/img/screenjb2s.jpg | ||

"Brood war" sounds 8 times better than "StarCraft One" But Day[9] will be Day[9], its pointless to tell him there are better ways. | ||

(nothing against husky, hes funny and shit but not quite the same class as day9) | ||
