I had a speed over 500kb/s. I'm starting to like sc2 more and more. It was easy to see everything that was going on and even with automining and MBS I think this can get pretty competative. The hunter seeker missiles were... strong O.o And I still dont like the shields >_< | ||

The Zerg controled the game the whole beginning, had he expoed instead of doing nothing, he would have won easily. Marines without stim are just another boring move and shoot unit and it's quite clear nobody will strip their marines of 1/4 of their life just to have Zerg forces burrow and wait for the stim effect to wear off. I'm really dissappointed with presented Terran gameplay. The fact that this should be probably one of their better games (after the weeks they were creating BR2 they certainly tried to choose good game) is making it much worse. | ||

Dude If I go 2 hat speedling/muta against a 1rax terran I am 100% in control for at least a while. Same with this low eco build. | ||

Are you seriously basing an entire match ups for a game you never played based off 2 games played by 2 average people on an ever changing game? Marine/Marauder is an extremely potent combination and in this particular map reapers also fair well. 2. I'm sorry that you've taken this game so seriously you couldn't enjoy just watching the battle report. 3. The terran player choose not to get any medivacs which would allow the use of frequent stimming, and in your particular scenario you know the terran could just use a scan. 4. These aren't professionals at the top of their game, accept this and enjoy watching starcraft 2 gameplay. | ||

Player colors wasnt as clean and shiny as in SC1. Banelings seems imba if you ought to make like 10 of them, make a good split with hydras and run all banes past them to just rape the **** out of the terran army. I want to see a more macrooriented game... it felt like two noobies battled out with cute small micro armies plus a fast expansion for 15 min. But perhaps that's how SC2 is going to play out? My guess(hope) is that the players were mediocre. Zerglings hopping... like wtf is up with that? Looked exactly like broodlings in SC1... didn't feel right. Not even speed upgrade taught them how to run propertly. I still wanna see some tanks! They werent in the first vs P (as of what I recall) and not in this game.. hopefully pros will find good use for them in other matchups than TvT. | ||

He had complete map control but only expanded once during that time. Plus, he never really went for any mid-game tech. I wanna see some Muta action | ||

+ Show Spoiler + 1) Some guy: We can see the queen add some larva on the hatchery, they're just popping off now! *Rewinds* Umn... wait wut? *Rewinds again* Oh, the eggs ON the hatchery were there from the Queen? When did this happen? *Rewind* They just kind of ended up there during the bunker rush.. alrighty. 2) *BOOM, Everything dies* Wait, umn... Banelings imba? "Oh, those D8 charges really took a toll on the zerg" What D8 charges? *Rewind, pause, play... pause, play* Hey look, these things appeared. 3) Why are those marines shooting their own marauders? Why is that overlord losing HP? Oh... apparently the overlord is taking damage. It'd be cool if there was an indicator that the marines were shooting the overlord, right? I didn't like that wall of text/rant taking up all that space T_T Argh, one of the great things about BW is even though you didn't know what to expect or look for, you could see, "Oh! The marines are firing, and subsequently there are sparks flying off the carapace of that overlord!". I came into this really excited (that's what she said, giggity.) But left quite... nervous for the outcome of SC2. | ||

I could just imagine a bunch of Hydras shooting down the missiles before they reach them. That would certainly add more micro to the game. | ||
