Can't wait to see games with micro and macro like this. Looks like SC2 has some great potential entertainment factors.

The Micro was effective - yes, but it's not that hard to outmicro IdrA's Army-composition with blink.

Most Z go for very fast Lair for Hydras anyways to counter Immortal-pushes, so I wouldn't recommend going 1-base Stalkers with Blink. Although they're okay to defend against Mutas when you are on two bases and they're decent on certain Maps, like Kulas ravine..

Idra just overdroned without knowing what his opponent was doing


He had the drone in for quite a while, unfortunately didn't see the fast citadel. But I think he left because that tactic really caught him offguard

Good play by bobby either way.



I think he left because the game was over and leaving the game when you can't possibly come back is something that most people do.

I feel sorry for idra, he can't leave a game without people saying he "ragequit" or something


Well yeah, but gm players would throw up a "gg" at least, and Idra is known for not doing much of that haha.

Anyways, I wonder why everyone is so negative in this thread. It was a good display of Stalker control, blinking units that virtually were about to die if left for a fraction of a second. It's not even like this was being overhyped or anything.

How did he use blink 2 years ago?


I believe he means the stalker micro technique was shown quite a while back by Blizzard themselves.



I think he was talking about a player named Sonic who used that. IIRC hes a WC3 player but I could be mistaken. It was broadcasted by dustin browder and robert simpson.

It was SonKie vs Yellow showmatch at one of the previous Blizzcons where Yellow showed this exact micro technique.

Well it was fun to watch, but it felt more like W3 micro that SC micro, but maybe its just me. Other than that I think it was just bad panic management from Idra with throwing units away.
And the thing is, it was fun now, but will it be fun after a few years or will it be more like boring standard routine micro to maximize the use of stalkers? Both for players and fans.

Husky...

You should feel honored by some of those posts. You are apparently a very talented caster and you're sparking interest in people who have never even heard of the game:

For some reason I can't stop watching Husky and HD's casts, I even downloaded and setup the single player SCII just to give it a try, you know, that looks like fun I could do that. Oh wait I suck horribly and watching these videos is more fun than playing.


I just recently got SC1 and WC3 after watching maybe 5 hours of H to the Usky Husky and HD's commentary I really want to get into starcraft it looks like so much fun.

Moving around the map and keeping track of everything for a nub is fucking hard.

Most interesting part is that this was pre-patch. I bet this is even more useful against roach/ling comp. Well done Bobby.

So:
Protoss have super awesome and strong and engaging blink micro. (it sparkles)

Zerg have super awesome and strong and (less) engaging burrow micro

Terran have... reaper/maurader/helion kiting? LAME. maybe stim+run counts for something. maybe NOT.

Really good use of blink, his micro really made the difference would have lost his stalker without it.
