Neatly summarises why early-game and mid-game jeopardy are important, and why it was a mistake for Blizzard to remove so many avenues of attack. Cheese frequently sucks, but the possibility of cheese, very important. The scales are very difficult to balance though. Aside from cheese the other side effect was effectively removing a lot of the impact of your first big tech choice and truncating the mid game a lot too. I’ve long felt taking away the phase of the game where he excelled was a huge factor in sOs falling off in Legacy But yeah, great article! | ||

Same. sOs was one of the most genius players ever. I feel like LotV removed so much of the strategical part of RTS, which is why all the best players in the world are the ones who are excellent mechanically. sOs still used to crush such players by being really smart in the early/midgame, but he just can't compete at the highest levels anymore. | ||
