Well, it's hard to properly gauge balance in an hour and a half.

One base play would probably largely depend on the map being played, I would think.

Macro play in SC1 wasn't even popular till about 2004. Give it time, the maps just may suit one base styles.

That said, I just wanted to know the game speed is good =)

lol, i am so addicted to sc2 even if its not out yet

when i played it on games convention it was so much fun, although my opponents were so bad. but now it looks like they even made a huge step forward

i hope i'm not wrong. and they can also put in some new macro things in the addons

Locating Zerglins in an arch shape on the top of a hill is useless.


Does anyone know what this really means? Is it the hill top 3Dness fucking up the view, or are Zerglings just hard to see in a clump, or what?

Also, I find this quote to be interesting:

One gas is comparable to 0.75 gas in SC1, in terms of macro resource management. Two gasses is comparable to 1.5 gases in SC1. In a main base play, one gas is not sufficient for upgrades and/or gas units.


I wonder how viable 0.75 gas would be? Committing to an extra gas early on can be quite detrimental. I was hoping two gases would be the same as two in SC, but I guess it doesn't really matter.

If 1 base play gets way too popular, I'm pretty sure people will start making maps with high-yield mineral natural expansions, or just natural expansions that are very hard to attack. It's really not a problem.

I'm thinking there will be crazy strategies involving Queen play. I really can't wait any longer...!

Guys, don't forget about maps. A huge bunch of strategies could be adjusted with maps (more expanding, more teching, more macroing etc etc)

Worrying that the first 90min played on the first 3 blizzard maps had mostly 1 base play, is ridiculous.

Fantastic read!

Sparked my dimming interest and hope in SC2!


Thanks for the trans
seriously next disrespectful comment in this blog is ip ban. Be happy or get the hell out. // SC2 is like playing with neutral-colored Play-Doh while BW is like colorful Legos.
