BW talk was real interesting. Was nice seeing Tyler and Day9 relive their BW days, almost liek the Artosis, Tasteless, Day9 footage from WCG 2005.

Great to hear about BW from Nony and Day9, brought so many good memories back from my childhood. Definantly in favor of an old-school SotG where they just talk about BW experiences, shit would be epic.

Ok, that was probably my favorite SotG of all time. iNc totally changed my perspective on Nydus, and the BW talk at the end was amazing. <3

Are any top Zerg players actually experimenting with Nydus? By experiment I mean playing a week's worth of games using Nydus every game that goes past 12 minutes. You can't figure out the best use for Nydus without using it a ton in a ton of different scenarios. Someone might stumble upon something good.

Of course they are. Just watch some streams. These guys make it sound like all Zergs are some narrow minded players, incapable of thinking up ideas like "hey you know what, maybe I should try other things".

No, this concept is beyond all professional zergs, but luckily we have Day9 to suggest hey there's Nyduses. Please get this revelation out to all pro zergs. They were not aware you could use Nyduses in other places on the map besides sneaking it into their opponent's base.

You don't need to be facetious. The argument you're making is the exact same that's always been made before a paradigm shift took place. From business to sports to ESPORTS. Zergs are mishandling key components to their game and they have been stubborn, just as Ps used to be and as Z were before that.

None of them have said the game is balanced or imbalanced. They've said that players have a lot of room to improve their game.

I'm sorry that using sarcasm has touched a nerve, but I'm no more facetious than the SOTG guys. The argument I'm making is just ONE argument. Have some pros zergs on the SOTG podcast that will advocate why zergs aren't imbalanced and what zergs should do. In none of my posts, did I personally argue that zerg is imbalanced.

What the SOTG guys have done is strawman the pro zergs' arguments about how zerg is imbalanced, and basically laughed at guys like Idra and Artosis when they came on to argue their points. The simplest way to show how pro zergs are wrong to argue how zerg is imbalanced is to have ONE show with multiple pro zergs that will argue why zerg IS NOT imbalanced.

seriously... having 4 non zergs arguing that zerg is fine is really fucking annoying. i wonder how long the excuse will be that "Well you know, the game is, really young, so i mean you need to realize that things might be discovered, which will help zerg out." 1 year? 2 years? till HotS?

*EVEN IF* zergs units were perfectly balanced against toss/terrans units, it would still be fundamentally imbalanced due to the options t/p has against zerg. for instance,

There are 2 football teams, (american football.) Red and Blue. They both are completely even in all aspects, but team Red only has a third of the playcalls that the Blue team has. Red has to practice defending 3 times the amount of plays that blue has, and they only have a third of the plays that they can choose for offence... obviously blue will win more often than not.

Thats what starcraft 2 is like for zerg! They are team Red!



If you think that that's how fundamentally broken zerg is... Don't play zerg. but make sure that when you play VS zerg, you win EVERY SINGLE GAME, because it'd be a damn shame and embarrassment if you lost to the "red team."

He was lonely with all the BW talk going on .

Seriously, an sotg with things that should be applied in sc2 from BW would be amazing.

Throwback SOTG sounds like the single greatest episode ever... I really love Broodwar and listening to these guys talk about it makes me so happy. Also all the sc2 player can see and learn what is mean't for all these guys. In Broodwar you played Starcraft cause you loved the game. SC2 seems to be driven by money and fame over peoples love for it.
