zzzz Tastosis commentating like he is teaching Starcraft2 to a 5 year old.
While I commend him for his undying loyalty to the game, he either needs to actually learn some strategy for the game or shove over for someone with a bit more knowledge of the game...

Doesn't abduction just ruin one of the most important thing about the game- positioning? I'm sure there has already been an extensive argument about this, I just haven't kept up.


Yes it does. Unfortunately most people think it's cool and fail to see how it affects the game.


Actually you have to be more cautious when you are positionning : you need to protect your colossi from vipers with HT or blink stalkers. That's not just, positionning then amove.

So how long are casters allowed to call abducts amazing and beautiful before we can complain that it's super easy and nothing special?


Thing is, abducts are single target and very expensive so picking where to use it and on what is actually a very complex decision.


Actually not really. You use it on the Colossi whenever your Vipers are over your army. It can have some cool utilizations but in a situation like that it's as one dimensional as it gets.

...What? If your opponent has shit colossus control and no concept of positioning relative to the new abilities, sure, abduct is easy to pull off. But vipers are expensive, abduct range is not that long, and smart protoss players will pull back colossi in response to viper advance, allowing stalkers to pick em off. The game is not even out and you are acting like the strategies are set in stone.


No I'm saying that in the situation in that game with the "amazing abducts" Stephano did the most brain dead obvious thing that anyone in Bronze could pull off and clicked on two Colossi. Abduct has 9 range, don't act like it's difficult or a matter of positioning for the Protoss because that's blatantly false. If Vipers are out against Colossi when the Protoss has no HT then those Colossi are dead

I don't think you get the grasp of a launch event. It's to promote the game to people that aren't already playing it. Tasteless is doing exactly what he should be doing.

Where did I say it was the perfect game? It was simply action packed, back and forth, and not ridiculously sloppy.

Yup, I really really like the dynamic,

Protoss Air to open, hydra > early/midgame air
colossi > hydra
viper > colossi
HT > viper
swarm host > HT comp
colossi > swarm host




Salvation a la mode and a cup of tea...
