I'm pretty sure this wasn't on fastest.
will there be "speed control?" because I will not buy this slow game if this was the fastest possible.

i think it's kind of stupid for units like that to do those stuff because unlike SC, such damage only comes from pure casters and something like a reaver, which you usually have very few of. With combat units getting such devestating abilities, it's gotten like every time you are in a skirmish, you can do the abilities again, and a hell of a lot of them at that my post is fragmented and may not make sense, but you get the idea | ||

SC2 attracts a much larger audience than hardcore die-hard pro-SC fans. | ||

The BR was pretty decent though. I wish they had teched up a bit more but it was entertaining nevertheless. edit: They can't possibily be good players :s Come on they barely micro their units and their macro is always behind. | ||

But i'm disappointed when looking at the Terran units. I just don't feel them right now. Not enough badass, especially marines. I'm kinda disappointed actually. Show us fastest already!!! | ||

Awful because the game was boring and the commentary was incredibly lame. Awesome because the visuals look amazing and the game is looking like it has tons of potential. With the new visuals you can see the units much more clearly and they definitely fit how the races are meant to be. The terrain looks fantastic and all the other minor stuff has been sorted. Play style wise it looks like good old ZvT! The game looked slow but games with below Gosu players always look slow. I'm sure the game can be sped up a notch as well. Both players had absolutely no idea how to macro, especially the Zerg. Coupled with the small maps we didn't get to see any massive battles, but I'm sure this will change as soon as the game hits Beta. This BR has show that the game really is moving in the right direction and that the high skill ceiling is still there. | ||

Terran had alot of flashy missles and shit while zerg had that spitting lurker looking thing. Banelings just seemed like they raped as much as a reaver. P.S. I don't really know or care about the unit names so bare with me. | ||

also in my opinion the units and the army constilation didn't remind me that much of sc1 but that might be because i am pretty pessimistic about sc2 and the srsly have to remove the ling bunny hopping. but the worst thing about the whole battlereport was the commentary. i can understand why they explain all those noob things which seem standard for us, but the way they commentate it looks like they try to sell dumb people some retarded little piece of shit over the TV. (what a great move, such awesome positioning, what a great move, what a great move, ect... ) | ||

I like the fact that it's becoming just slightly more strategy and slightly less APM. And this BattleReport was pretty oke, liked the fact that it was TvZ. But now I'm REALLY curious about ZvP, damn blizzard, when is beta or Br3? ^^ | ||

Focus firing, spreading your marines. With a harsh penalty if you mess up... all your rines get raped. The same goes for the Reapers explosion packs; no decent player is going to sit there and let their shit get raped, they're going to micro away. | ||
