Obviously I think that damaged health bars are good for playing, and kinda good for solo casters who don’t have an observer. But if you do have a dedicated observer there’s no reason for you to use damage health bars, simply because it doesn’t really highlight the units that you want to highlight on the screen. So you might have some high energy ghosts and high energy templars, and they try to get key EMPs and snipes off. With damage health bars you might have a few marines that are damaged and they clutter the screen, and you can’t really see anything. That being said, it takes a lot of practice and good control for the observer to select the health bars that need to be selected. There are some key moments that can happen really fast in Starcraft that something might die super quickly and you may miss it. Having the health bar is pretty key for the observer. I don't know where else to post this. There is not a tournament I've seen yet with an observer with enough APM to show us the proper health bars at the proper time. Why do I see a drop with 0 health bars on screen? Nothing died, but who got damaged and how much? Edit: I'm going to drop these two shots, first from Dreamhack yesterday, one from Red Bull this past weekend. I'm not taking a shot at funka, I think he's good, but that comment in the shot is the typical response from everyone when I ask why health bars are off. https://i.imgur.com/2ZWeBBs.jpg https://i.imgur.com/DNEMkfL.jpg | ||
