Check the replay, it probably occurred at the same time he used a chronoboost. Kind of a bummer to be honest. | ||

I see what it is now, after checking the replay. It's the lightning effect and the same thing happens at all the (unoccupied or occupied) bases. Still weird.. | ||

Images below for those who are curious + Show Spoiler + ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/wiRyC.jpg) + Show Spoiler + ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/5NXqe.jpg) + Show Spoiler + ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/5LNMO.jpg) I have made no modifications to Starcraft 2 in any way, neither related or unrelated to textures. I wouldn't even know how. Anyhow, thought it was interesting but didn't think it merited a thread. Maybe someone knows whats up with it but its pretty unimportant overall. Edit: I need to learn how to resize my images, TLBot was not pleased with my screenshot sized insolence >< | ||

+ Show Spoiler + 2 tanks is a standard answer. If you're deep on creep and he can see you pressing D you might want to do it one at a time/If no ones there to see your greed you could do half at a time. But honestly the only non situational answer I can say is to never unsiege more than 40% of what you have if you're leapfrogging. Edit: Thank you for pointing me in the right direction LaZe I was hesitant to necro a thread and I guess I went in the wrong direction anyway. | ||

Disagree, many people like this game but I don't. It's a bit interesting but the game is over once MVP loses that push and then his second push barely doing any damage. It's just his amazing macro that keeps him just barely in the game, but as we all know Idra's macro is strong too so MVP couldn't comeback. It's an uphill battle the whole game, with no sign of comeback. Anyways, if you are showing your class to get them into SC2, I suggest you instead show them National Geographic's documentary "World Cyber Games". HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. It is all about Starcraft and eSports and progaming. It is very very well and I could not hope for a better documentary. TBH, your classmates aren't going to be interested in the game very much, especially considering how most of the foreign casters aren't professionally trained to actually cast or commentate. Most kids like FPS and will laugh at RTS or barely show interest in it, especially since girls usually do not game. NG's documentary is the PERFECT thing to use to WOW people who don't know about eSports. I suggest TSL3 finals, + Show Spoiler + or even Thorzain vs MC set 4. + Show Spoiler + http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RXMWLWhHtUI Rain vs MC in GSL3 finals set 2 on Lost Temple is also a great game, you can find it on GOMtv.net TSL has good casters, or at least for the games I just mentioned. Also consider picking a match(es) where there is at least 1 shot of a huge huge crowd Or just show them pictures later if you're trying to get them to learn about Starcraft and eSports. | ||

I've been playing desert strike lately and it's SOOOOOO good. You guys should try it out. It's really fun and you can build lurkers (miss them so much!). EAT HIMMMMM | ||
