Imagine if you merge two-three DT's you get a DT with a blink, kind of Zerathul in campaign. However I feel maybe not all spells would be useful but maybe you could have 1-2 max per game and they do a little more damage then a normal DT. Thoughts? Honestly it would come way too late (too far up in the tech tree). DTs are already pretty nice harassment units but I think Protoss needs something that can be fielded quicker and doesn't rely on lack of detection. I would absolutely love to have a Reaper-esque unit instead of blinking DTs =) | ||

I just played a PvT which reminded me heavily of the MLG with rain's nuke on naniwa! Ok, it wasnt a game winner for him .. far from it but it was completely cloaked in that .. by coincidence .. I attacked the very second he sent his nuke, so all I heard was the barrage of siege tank fire etc! all in all i lost a base worth of probes and assumed it was down to a drop I missed while i was microing. it was only when I checked the replay I saw! also checking the replay I also found that it was virtually impossible to hear the nuke announcement going off over the battle. is it just me or is hearing announcements in game a hella more importent then the proportional volume of guns being fired? any way of changing the volumes of announcements and stuff that people know of ? I already have music and ambient off! | ||

According to liquipedia, the warp prism moves at the same speed as a stimmed marine and hydralisks on creep after the gravitic drive upgrade. The only units it can't outrun are phoenixes and mutalisks. Here's my question: I think space-controlling should be used more in SC2, something like what Spider Mines, Lurkers, and siege tanks did in sc1. What tactics can you use to control regions on the map in SC2, if there are any? Obviously siege tanks in SC2 can do this to some extent, so this use of the siege tank could be excluded. | ||

If you are a racepicker like me and do these small tournaments, my opponents always get really pissed when I dont tell them what race I will be playing and just say "well it also depends on the map" Even if I point out that its really hard to play more than one race they get really mad quite often( this happened the last 3 times, actually) Do you guys think it can be considered BM or should I just tell them to quit whining :D | ||

Pro Players charged!!! :O, i never knew starcraft could get so serious... check this out!! http://starcraft2forum.org/forums/showthread.php?t=14385 WOW. This is why popular tournaments in korea and internationally need to have bigger prize pools. If some one offered you 6000$ to drop games you would do especially at MLG where the prize pool is so low. | ||

I disagree on the scope. SC2 has such a low micro ceiling. I want harder units that make for spectacular games and sports. low micro ceiling for Zerg maybe, try playing terran in master you have to micro insanely if you want to survive and the smallest mistake costs you the victory from the A-moving zerg player. | ||

If I was running a tourney though you'd have to put down your race when you sign up and you'd be DQ if you played something else. I think playing random in tourneys is kind of suspect too. Supposing one player or the other can come up with an excuse for the game to need to be restarted, it could get really complicated. | ||

No idea when I should wake up TT http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=263985 Starts at 1:10am eastern time. The All-star i figure will last for a couple hours. Maybe right up to the finals but I'm not sure really. Going to be one great fucking night for some starcraft 2 that's what i know for a fact. | ||
