I just wanted to chime in with support for the changes in the video, at least on the test realm at some point. Looking at them made me remember all those epic moments from BW when the pros made the impossible possible.

Also +1 support to the idea of subtitling it to Korean, as was mentioned earlier. Or possibly voice-over (with LaLush's permission) if that's easier.

Great analysis. While I don't think every BW micro trick should be ported to SC2, I do agree that micro-ability must be as consistent and reliable as possible.

SC2 tends to go for the visual flair over microability, and it's appreciated to a certain extant - I mean, I do find it more visually pleasing to see unclumped vikings vs. a super-stack of vikings.

Ideally, SC2 should be just as microable as BW (and even more so, if you consider dragoon AI, etc.) yet still have the same visual appeal.

I think it's pretty natural the marine is disliked because of the micro potential: it's nearly the only unit in the game one is able to micro to such an extent. An opponent without that possibility would be terribly frustrated.


I don't think people's occasional dislike for the marine has anything to do with the behaviour of that unit, but rather with it dominating every single XvT matchup in terms of strategies.

"MMM deals with everything"... sounds familiar?

MMM can deal with everything has a lot to do with Marines having 0 damage point though, which does in fact define the behavior of that unit.


And the fact you can fit so many in such a small space. They have potent kill zones since so many can be fireing at one spot.

This is very interesting and informative.
I really hope blizzard listens and revisits some (if not all) of the mentioned points.

Thanks a lot.

Well, i understand, but my guess is that is because of it's microability. In my view, we're saying the same thing

It doesn't gain much traffic I'm afraid.

Anyone willing to translate it into their native language is welcome to contact me. I've already finished a basic english transcript with timestamps, so it should be easy for you.

Especially nice if someone could translate it to korean.

Subtitles can be done in 1 of 2 ways:

1. Send me a PM with your googleaccount (email name) and the language you want to translate the video into. I will then share access with you to my video's subtitling feature on youtube. There is already a working transcript in english with time stamps. You basically only have to do a sentence by sentence translation.

2. You download one of the following raw subtitle files: .srt-format or .vtt-format. You then edit them yourself in a subtitle editor program and reupload them for me to download.

You are really good at being useful. Like, you weren't just like, "Sure, you can subtitle my stuff!" You were like, "Sure, you can subtitle my stuff, and here is exactly how you can go about it in case you don't know. By the way, I've typed up a transcript so you don't have to spend so much time listening to my video! Have a nice day! "

I hope Blizzard at least considers making some of these changes, I'd love for air units to move more fluidly.

If time permits, I'll write up a Chinese translation and/or a French one.
