The one posted above is pretty silly and Starbow fans really shouldn't be looking to replace SC2. People should just enjoy the mod and not attack the game that other people enjoy. Thanks Mr. Social Convener. Blizzard is capable of seeing the forest through the trees. If people don't like certain things about SC2 they should complain away. If there are certain elements of Starbow that are more entertaining ... so much so that people think it should replace SC2... then so be it. If SC2 is all that great it'll win on merit. The activity around Starbow is right in line Mohraime's choice of company name... but, i'm too lazy to draw out the analogy in full. So all in all.. all this activity is fantastic. | ||

Alternatively, if they want to stick with the explosive sac motif, there's the model from the HotS campaign. | ||

Also that spell can have another utilities that can add entertainment to the game. It can force siege tank to unsiege and shutdown turrets+spore alloiwing more drop play wich is fun to watch. And this abilite should not be imbalanced cuz its a heavy investmet cuz it requires a fleet beacon and a corsair for each disruption web. The disruption web was in the previous version but quite buggy so they removed it. They were supposed to add it again in the newest patch but the player base spike due to Totalbiscuit, Axiom, Huskystarcraft and all others made them decided against patching it immediately. Q: I remember from Broodwar when your units were hit with parasite the box around them in the control group would go green, did the same apply to Irradiate? Or am I remembering this incorrectly? | ||

"SHOUTcraft Clan Wars will incorporate not only non-standard maps but also non-standard map formats. Each Clan War will feature a 2v2 map, which allows smaller teams to re-use players from their roster in a different format or even give some of their less competitive players a chance to shine. Going further than that, we plan to include the arcade maps Starbow and SC2BroodWar." | ||

Only parasite did that, it did not apply to irradiate (or other spells such as optical flare). | ||

It's like somewhere in between someones personal opinion on balance and that BW recreated map. I don't see the point. It takes the good aspects of broodwar and tries to recreate them in sc2 while leaving you with a game that sc2 players would be familiar with. Of course, 'good aspects' is subjective. | ||
