I started sc2 during this era as zerg,
Never fucking knew it existed till after the fact. Always saw "Pros" go BL/Infestor but i thought it was lame and just did Hydra/roach over and over again

Amusingly, I don't remember much from this era at all. This was around the time of Blizzard's botched launch of Diablo 3. However, whenever I was deciding whether to watch SC2 or do another Azmodan run or check the AH again, either Azmodan or the AH won. I think my mind is still subconsciously erasing memories of games during this time.

Stephano should be in the #1.

Not only he created the Winfestor/GGlord, but also he created the monster that was the turtle SH style.

Stephano killed esports, but we are just too blind to admit it


I wasn't paying attention to the Starcraft scene during HOTS...what was the initial community feedback to Swarm Hosts? I can't imagine anyone thought the unit was a good idea when it was introduced, but obviously hindsight is biased.


Opinion on SH was pretty evenly split. Some people instantly looked at "free units" and called the unit atrocious. Others, including Artosis and myself, thought it had lots of potential.

I still hold that the concept of free units doesn't HAVE to end up shitty.

I remember the HotS beta launch party when Rotti and friends triend SHs for the first time and literally could not believe the damage locusts do

Lol oh man. I don't know half of those players. It's like they all disappeared because they couldn't succeed in a broken game.

One could say that it was because they couldn't succeed once the game stopped being broken

fun read

while memes and legends are often times much more interesting than the boring trivialities of reality, I'll shed some light on what actually happened to the Scotish lad "JonnyREcco" if anyone's interested:

+ Show Spoiler +
Inspired by watching Stephano's stream (way back when he was playing on god-awful maps like Typhon Peaks against god-awful players like Sjow), Paul went to the ladder to have a go at emulating his fellow Zerg's playstyle and timings. A lot of time on his hands, Paul got decent at it, hit gm, started playing tournaments, starting making a name for himself - but attributing his Fall from Grace to him abusing Zerg is far from the whole truth. What happened was that he became complacent with what he had done for himself and wasn't willing to put in serious practice to keep improving - that and the real life distractions of a young boy hanging out with his friends.
Source: I used to coach/mentor him till we started drifting away from each other when he got too full of himself and I got fed up with him being complacent
