Series 1 F.United vs Prime Starters: ThorZaIN vs BBoongBBoong Series 2 SlayerS vs Old Generations Starters: GanZi vs Cezanne link Soluhwin: Found by searching team liquid.. thread wikipedia page Summary: The Elo rating system is a method for calculating the relative skill levels of players in two-player games such as chess. It is named after its creator Arpad Elo, a Hungarian-born American physics professor. ELO is based at 2000, and increases/decreases with games played against race X. That's all I gleaned from a quick look at numbers :/ The most important thing to take away is that the rating itself doesn't mean anything. It's the difference between two players ratings that gives you useful information regarding the likelyhood of a games possible outcomes. | ||

The Warp Spider. A low health (40s 60h), 2.5 speed stalker-like unit. It can warp from power field to powerfield across the map. It's like nydus, but with lower initial investment and as a tradeoff only one unit can do it. Using phase prisms allows the Warp Spider to harass a probe line, and then vanish back through the powerfield. If the phase prism dies, that's fine, since no units were "on board" (a balancing factor to the Phase Prism's extremely low health, though you still need to load it up to move any other units). EMP resets the warp ability cooldown (15s). Fungal does not, but damage is still delivered through the warp. Since units take double damage while warping (a 3 second process), not warping while fungled may be a better idea. Think of them a bit like "Mutalisk of the ground", though that analogy is a bit like saying the colossus is a "siege tank": loooots of differences. For a race that generally has to stay clumped together, this could give some serious mobility. The unit is produced from stalkers -- the energy crystal matrix inside of the stalker is enhanced and expanded, but because of the size of it, the matrix protrudes from the stalker's exoskeleton. Once a stalker becomes a Warp Spider it cannot revert. Research unlocked at the twilight council. Morphing requires 25 gas and being in a power-field. Morphing requires 10s, during which the stalker will take double damage. So that's the idea ^^ | ||

I have a Spanish voice pack but I was watching a stream and while most of the unit responses were the same as minee, they had different voices. I'd guess that Latin Spanish (mexican) and Europe Spanish (spanish) are different, but I don't know. =/ | ||

The Elo system devised by Arpad Elo? It doesn't stand for anything, instead it's named after the creator. I just searched "elo" and the Wikipedia entry was the third result. Look it up. It's formally known as the "Elo rating system" and is the premier system used by chess leagues. | ||
