Hey guys, I've started a suggestion to have fast access to the VoDs on MLG.tv. We used to get em' at 11 am when it was on blip.tv. Anyways, give it some votes and they might listen so we can get our fix ASAP on wednesday mornings...

I'm pretty sure the reason Incontrol hated so many of the units was because he wasn't at blizzcon. Looking at a broken unit and playing with a broken unit are very different things. He probably would have liked more of them if he could actually build them and understand how they worked in an actual game.

Or maybe he just really doesn't like most of them.

Awesome show as always!

I had never even heard of that ESEA tournament and I watch a lot of SC2... now I know why. They did EG dirty.

The only times I heard of ESEA's sc2 team league was when iNcontroL tweeted about how EG did in it. I looked at the thread Geoff talked about... Man ESEA really needs to get their shit together.

It won't happen. They actively have to disable that function (not something you turn on). So someone decided, at some point, that they wanted the traffic on MLGs site for anyone to watch the VODs.

This probably won't change.

Supporting either way.. hope it does happen.

Can somebody please link me to the thread iNcontroL was talking about, the one about a team tourney that EG was walked over? I didn't catch the name of the tournament and I dunno at what time they talk about it.

also whats with this hate about the shredder bieing some imba unit? i'm pretty sure the only thing that it counters is mutas and zerglings for zerg, and for toss zealots... i think everything else in the game outranges it's wave... had this knowledge been brought up we may have been able to get 30 more minutes of actually knoweldgable feedback from the pro's instead of wastefull bashing on this unit. but none the less in enjoyed the show and thought tyler, artosis, and especially destiny's feedback was really great, but i honestly like incontrol and watch his stream a lot but from this show in perticular it just makes him look less knowledgable than i think he actually is and more of just a terran bashing troll.

i really agree with destiny and artosis's answer about players switching over to hots as well because the money is in the wol tournaments, i think it's going to be a while before the top level players switch to hots.


Because it basically discourages multitasking (ling runbys).. personally I don't think there should be another unit that helps Terran to turtle


i understand that and i wish that was brought up instead of negatively bashing on it as a unit that will just be super imba that will kill anything that attacks it, no... because in reality if there is a shredder protecting a ling run by location. its simple, you send 1 roach down to attack it. what happens? the shredder either dies, lifts up and runs, or an army comes to reinforce the shredder shutting it off and the roach dies.

i really think the main idea behind the shredder and why it was introduced, was to help mech shine in a tvp aspect as warp in is just so powerfull, but we'll just have to see. but again this wasn't brought up because there is no terran player on the show who knows these things to bring them up

I loved the shredder when I read the description. I assumed that it would be a huge spider mine that cost a bit of supply.

However, that thing they showed at blizzcon was just stupid. The damage is far too high, 20 dps is the same as a psi storm. Just think about that. It's a deployed psi storm with a massive radius that doesn't hurt friendly units.

I'd love for terran to have something like a spider mine but this thing feels so uninspired and boring.

I think the reason why a lot of people were disappointed with the HotS unit reveals was that they basically brought back some BW units and abilities (that everyone loved) but felt the need to make stupid changes to them in order to be 'original'. I can understand not wanting SC2 to become BW with a better engine but if they are going to blatantly steal units from BW I'd rather just get the actual unit than have them make a new 'original' version when the old unit would have served it's role better.

The best example has to be the damn Warhound. It should have been the goliath, there is no reason other than developer pride for making it into the horrible thing they suggested. A bonus to mechanical is completely meaningless (the only mechanical non-armored ground units are the hellion and the sentry) when you have marauders, as it is the warhound does the same damage (20) to armored at + 1 range but with significantly less RoF (and therefore much lower DPS). I don't see what this unit will change in tvt or tvp and it will only be used against mutas in tvz since the ground damage without the bonus is really bad. A goliath would have been a great unit for terrans to be able to deal with brood lords when ghost snipes will inevitably get nerfed AND it also would have been great vs other armored air and the ground attack is decent against everything - it also has a better model.

The goliath, lurker and the firebat are already in the game and they were supposed to be part of the original release only to be removed for terrible reasons. Why not just bring them back?

Also, protoss finally got a unit that can deal with corruptor and viking swarms. This could have made carriers viable (at least in zvp) ... but they removed them. Fuck.

Not to mention their retarded reasoning behind the new protoss units... "we don't want to add to the deathball" (and they still added the tempest).... The deathball isn't some sort of orchestra of protoss units. It's just colossus + stalkers and whatever else you want to bring with it since stalkers and colossi are just an amazing comp. And the only reason why stalkers are part of the ball is because colossi need anti-air. The "deathball" is the colossus. And for some messed up reason blizzard want colossi to be part of every single protoss matchup.

... and the stupid thor "we want to make a a-move friendly unit for the noobs"... I could probably go on for ages...

Obviously things will change a lot before HotS is released. But blizzcon wasn't very encouraging tbh.

If you're playing mech as terran, zerg can't really fight you head on, so they've got to do runbys, since your push is too powerful. If you've got a bunch of shredders at key locations, either they can't do the runby at all, or it gets slowed down a fuck ton from having to kill the shredders first. Either way, it's a massive advantage for the mech player to have this unit, I"m not sure it's OP but it's definitely going to be powerful.

Even though that's true, it will take up extremely valuable time from your factories, and will probably take up supply (?), so you might be really safe with multiple shredders on the map, but the actual push will be later and a lot weaker.

Sooo...
I wasn't able to watch the show live because the stream kept dying and the quality kept switching over and over again. Now I thought I could watch the vod but mlg/jp take forever to actually upload it... :-/
I can't believe I ate the whole thing.
