the only thing unit-wise I thought was dumb was the summon infested terran. It makes no sense and looks totally stupid and summon spells are stupid

The zerg seemed to waste a ton of banelings at 12:40 >.< That really annoyed me.

This is the first time I've seen anything sc2 related. I completely avoid this forum and anything blizzard posts regarding sc but holy crap that game looks fun.

Zerg went super low eco and really tried to bank on the success of his attacks but mismicroed a few key times and really threw away his timing.

Awesome game. I also think its funny that with mbs and automine zerg was able to move troops like high level players do now.

What would you like him to say:

"zerg just pressed attack button, nothing special..."
"pretty standard use of this new ability, that shit is over powered anyway"

Excuse the man for trying to excite some people about the match and the new game.

Lower quality than the torrent, but should be fine.

Exactly. Who knows, maybe these more basic Battle Reports will get more people in the US into watching esports and profession SC in general.

Just watched this, obviously not a pro-level match but I think it looks like a lot of fun. I'd like to see them show a longer game with larger battles and more tech for the next battle report though.

1) hunter seeker. maybe if it is "too powerful" they could give it some HP and allow you to blow it up in midair if you can micro and damage it enough in time

2) banneling reminds me of lurker, only it doesnt have to burrow :<

Look closely at 20:23 on the BR.

You can see one of the Hydras melee attacking an auto-turret. Pretty cool.

Man I really wanted to see the new infestor, but I guess since this report is what, 1.5-2 months old now? We aren't going to see that until beta.

I wanted to see the queen summon a swarm on those nighthawks, but I guess it wasn't going to happen. Mainly I just wanted to see zerg air. That spawn infested marine power makes no sense, even if it does plug a necessary hole in zerg's abilities. I wish it summoned something more appropriate like tentacles that grasp or damage the air units maybe.

In other news, I thought the terran structures looked very un-terran like. Since you terrans aren't getting bent out of shape about it, I'll assume its just me and let that slide. I did think the animation of the CC lowering looked a bit abrupt. The marauder attack animation looks good now, though and the seeker missile was very well done. I would rather have seen some of these new mech units though. We saw bio build in br1.

So much to say, but I think I'll stop here.

Why didn't Zerg expand earlier when first went into Terran's base? He had every opportunity to do so, and chose to do it much later, after the Terran had time to do a tech switch

haha was pretty interesting, I actually think the level of play slightly improved from the first battle report. Not saying much though.

It did annoy me that the zerg's build was like omg WTF?

Ok fine. 2hatch baneling I'll accept, but 10 minutes later w/ same economy and still 2hatch?! Nothnx 4pool nexttime and just build zerglings for 15 minutes then GG....

Is it just because the players weren't much good or did expanding/map control really not matter much in this BR?
Also, what's the lore behind the 'spawn 5 infested terrans' ability?

Earlier a Terran ship accidently crashed into the Overmind by thinking it would be a good place to hide out. This mixed in the Terran genetic blueprint(DNA) with the Overmind and now the Overmind can deploy infestors which deploy infested marines as a psychological combat tool.

<3 nighthalks...

but.. it doesnt seem as epic as SC1.. maybe im just not used to it... im still having issues actually seeing whats onscreen unlike SC1...

but... if speed is increased and good players play on a little bigger map... this could get pretty sweet.
