Love the podcast, was laughing so much when I listened to the latest one. ^.^

Even though I'm a lowly Bronze, I wanna be on this podcast so bad. -_-

Keep it up, guys! (Can't wait for Sean to get back on it)

Anyways, thanks for posting State of the choice on three :D


Just went on to rate it after seeing your post.

Hopefully more do the same aswell

Love the podcast guys, look forward to it every week.

I'm also starting the bets for the first Australian on EG, lookout for Speight!

Edit: God I want to meet some of your guys so badly, too bad Australia is as far from any LAN you guys attend as it possibly can be. Hopefully one day I will join in the Artosis/IdrA 'nerd/zerg meetings' in Korea.

That's just Tasteless for you. Drug laws in most Asian countries are extremely strict, and MJ in SK is no exception. If he was caught it's likely he would get deported. I really doubt he would be on anything.
i was driving down the road this november eve and spotted a hitchhiker walking down the street. i pulled over and saw that it was only a tree. i uprooted it and put it in my trunk. do trees like marshmallow peeps? cause that's all i have and will have.

Don't know if it's been mentioned but there was a user question mentioned the Void Ray nerf as random and it was not the case, it was mentioned by SC2 devs that MakaPrime came up with a build with the exact timings and sent to David Kim which were proven to powerful. So no, it's not random.

No, maka lost to a void ray rush a couple of times and it got falcon punched, no real reasoning or letting the build get figured out.

The nerf was totally uncalled for and honestly relegating a unit to the reaper pile is just wrong.

Also what about Tester in PvT losing automatically against a special Banshee push that killed him instantly. The best P in Korea auto killed by a special little timing. Same exact point as maka, a better player than maka only this knocked someone out of a major tourny.

Sorry, the logic doesn't hold up and neither does the methodology of the nerf blizzfail there.

Tasteless smokes tobacco, which is what is fucking his voice. I'm sure plenty of people have been telling him to stop.

They said that Maka sent in the replays that caused them to take a look at the Void Ray. We can't be sure what kind of VR strategy it was or how it worked. All we know is it was scary enough that Blizzard decided to adjust VRs. Given the nerfs it almost seems like it was something like the Pylon Charged VR+ gateway unit push that was gaining popularity into some sort of transition with the fleet beacon upgrade.

Here's my guess as to what it may have been....

VRs+Gateway push with charged VRs to trade armies or keep the army sizes down. This also forces a less tech oriented path for the Terran player because I believe a 1:1:1 build would die to this push from my understanding.
VR speed during this push (remember it's only 140s from stargate building since it's 60fleet beacon + 80 research) and that's before chronoboost. Sure it's expensive (450/350), but you could probably make it work.
Next attack is VRs with speed (3.375 speed) that can outrun/dodge marines (even with stim they were only equal speed) and can hunt down or avoid vikings (2.75 speed).
It seems like maybe if something like this was pulled off (possibly more to it overall) it could be really effective. If the first push limits the Terran players to being lower tech and defending with marines the 2nd push would be able to keep the Terran completely contained for a long period of time. As anyone knows, base trading vs even 3-4 void rays is suicidal at best so that's not even an option.

edit...

If you look carefully you can notice that the only distinct change the speed nerf has PvT is that stimmed marines (3.375) can now run down speed VRs (now 2.95 was 3.375). There is an effect vs other units like any speed upgrade, but this is a 'hard' change from equal speed to slower than.

Chances are Maka sent in a whole pack of replays of trying to figure out how to handle the strat efficiently even with blind countering and didn't come up with much.

So glad that I found this podcast. I migrated to SC2 from WC3. I almost think I can just listen to this every week in the car and dodge most of my random SC2 news browsing on the web. Ever since hearing InControl and Tyler on TLA, I was really hoping to find more things with them.

Anyway. I got you guys subscribed. Keep up the good work.

Yep, I rated it as well. The "average rating" couldnt get any better lol.

Slasher is quite annoying on the latest State of the Choice on Three (uncut).. Incontrol is right he does embody the shit of the internet (at times).
