want to know whats really ironic?


the fact that back in BW a Foriegn terran made a thread or something like that saying that Science vessels were "useless"

and then once people figured out how to use them... they became used frequently.



doesn't that sound very farmiliar?

Except SK/Soulkey was using the Sci Vessel in a completely separate building; the issue is that not only are Ravens really bad in general (slow, turn speed is bad, and they need to store up energy to use their mediocre at best abilities), they also tie up a building that produces the much needed Medivacs to combat Infestors. There's alot of key differences between the Ravens and Sci Vessel that will always make the Sci Vessel much more useful. One being that Sci Vessel has an all-purpose killing tool in Irradiate that has multiple uses (kills units, harass workers, can snipe Defilers with them, etc.) while the Raven has no multi-purpose spell.

It's such a sad picture that can be garnered from posts here.
This thread is an excellent example why units and abilities that desperately need a redesign will never get it.
As long as they can be used in any circumstance a horde of people will proclaim them fine and balanced but underused and not figured-out.
A real shame but perhaps it is what must happen when a game is balanced by measuring the outrage of the spectators.

am i the only one thinking: "i wish those were irradiates"
because the game wont end in two seconds and gave nestea(zerg) to micro minimize damage and intensify the game.
(pre-emptive micro-spreading vs aoe < real time micro-picking out irradiated)

Pretty much; Nestea engaged in a terrible position and made Blords on a map that is notoriously bad for utilizing Blords (mainly because you can get backstabbed by Medivac drops/nuke harassment so easily and can't react).

to all of you demanding that the raven is still a bad unit and you need that Starport for Medivacs/Vikings - Kas did slay NesTea 2:0. And he did it with a ton of Ravens. And he did not win because he was lucky and cought tightly stacked air units with Seeker Missiler, instead he mostly used Auto-Turrets and PDDs. How did he get up that many Ravens? Firstly, he got more than one Starport. And second, he did not build many Medivacs. As weird as this may sound, Terran can actually fight, even if not every single Marine has his own Medivac.

And since both Kas and MVP went for Ravens late game, the unit seems to be way better than people think they are. As those two players are top-notch and have a huge amount of experience

You're all missing one crucial detail... MVP's mouth was open.
