I don't see why so many people are upset over the name, he created it.
look at the sc1 wiki, there are plenty of builds that are named after people.

Things named after people are not named by said people. It's not like Bisu made a thread somewhere and was like "check this out guys, I call it... the Bisu build!" He just did it, and that's what everyone else called it.

Most things that are named after players are named after them by the community not by themselves. Its the difference between planting a flag and saying "this is mine" and doing something great and having people decide you deserve to be remembered by the way they address the thing you discovered.

SK terran is not named after the team. It's named after SoulKey, the player who introduced it.
The team name is SKT not SK, btw. (SK only stands for South Korea)

Your point is valid though

I mean, he created it, let him do with it as he pleases. If it gets used by a lot of people, success!

Congrats Stalife, your name shall forever be cemented in time.

Day[9] Daily #172 - Stalife vs Bubba!
This game is a great example of fundamentals decision making! Nothing too tricky or fancy, just good solid instances of general "gosu techniques." Also, we introduce one fancy thing: THE STALIFE DROPS .

I dont see how this should have any positive effect, i personally always have all banelings grouped in a seperate group so i can move them into the marines during fights...

On topic: There really isn't anything I can add on top of what was already said in this thread, its a useful but highly situational micro mechanic, but at the end of the day aren't they all?


i never said mine was good, its actually rather horrid for starcraft, but im not the one trying to get people to pronounce it as a trick

that remains to be seen, it doesnt seem all that worthy, but i suppose he has to mention something

baneling carpet bombs arent named after the guy that started it, why should marauder drops be treated differently

I knew Stalife when playing fastest maps, he was really good haha. He was the first one I saw using 2port wraith TvZ successfully on fastest maps !

Also, this poll :

(im not a Spartan smurf account :D)

But yeah after tonight's day9's daily, the Stalife drops will become the official name.


He invented 2 port wraith on fastest(lololol) too? wow, this guy is amazing.
I don't care what people are calling it. I'll call it what it is; Dropping marauders on banelings.

Its cool, but I've been doing this for awhile it gets rid of all their banelings if you drop it ontop of them, then you can run in with the rest on your force and kill without the worry of banelings.

It seems like its useful, but it also seems quite risky in that the Zerg could roll past your Marauders and you have to have really good timing to pull it off.

Also its assuming he doesn't destroy your Medivacs before he moves his ground force closer, nonetheless an interesting trick well done for discovering & sharing.

Most zerg just have the blings running at one of the marines farthest from them, so I don't see how this could be useful against good players unless they were asleep at the wheel.

GJ Stalife. It's a great trick, and it's awesome that he decided to share it. :D

He invented it? I'm thinking this must be some huge troll conspiracy -_-

It's not much different from a baneling bomb or even a zealot bomb in SC:BW. You're using a dropship to get your units into the best position.

It's a cool trick and all, but naming it after yourself brings the problem. It's almost like nominating yourself for something, it's plain stupid. If you did it in a few top level tournaments, people would catch on and you'd earn the respect, inturn EARNING your build, the stalife build.. Anyways, really humble of you. Thanks for the tips.
Wishing you well.
