for starters asian isn't a colour, so your point of black or white replay packs is completely void. It sounds like you're the racist.
there are actually kind of american and europe replay packs out there showcasing players from different servers or tournaments.

Ty Artosis, we all <3 your contribution, dedication and commitment to the game and the community. By the way can you force the other three foreigners beside you ( Idra, Tasteless, and Apollo) to release a replay pack as well ( A MEGA REPLAY pack of the 4 Dragons ^^).
Questions: 1.Can you compare and contrast your play-style to Idra. As you have told us many times that you guys discuss strategies together, does that mean you guys play the game in similar ways?
2. How do foreigner Zergs differ from Asian Zergs?
3. I believe you and Idra have experimented a lot vs mech, can you tell us what Is the best way to play vs Mech and Terran in general. what are the crucial timings/moments in the game.

lol, are you guys seriously debating racism on replay packs? I'm 100% sure [G5] was making a joke.
That being said, I am also quite interested in the responses to GunMan's questions posted above. I think they are very good...especially contrasting the Asian server Zerg playstyle to other servers. My guess is a lot of focus on queens and fast hatch, contrasting vs NA server "IdrA" style tech/macro builds...but having never been able to play on the Asia server I'd love to hear Artosis' response on that
A few (simple) questions of my own...
1) Do you find a higher level of difficulty/competency of opponents on the Asia server? This is asked from the view of taking into account the variable playstyles between server "meshing" with your playstyle...so rather, as opposed to "is it harder for your build/playstyle on Asia", this question more or less refers to actually competency of opponents. Or do you see little difference?
1) b] Is there a bigger focus on either (or both, I suppose) macro/micro on Asia, compared to other servers?
2) Do you have a favorite matchup? In terms of fun, rather than "this is easy to win".
3) Do you have a favorite replay in the pack? ^^
aaaand finally... 4) Who has been your hardest opponent/series to date? Whether you won or lost.

I think you mean G5 was stating a joke I was simply informing G5 that Asian refers to the Asian server, It has nothing to with the race, and more precisely the absurd claim of "double standard" mentioned by G5.

I have one more question. After watching Desert Oasis (4) replay, where the Terran opens with dual proxy barracks. It reminded me of one of the videos on scforall (you, idra, forzenarbiter) where talking about why pvt in BW was imbalance. One of the things frozenarbiter said was that because Protoss can proxy/cheeses and even if the cheese fails they can transition smoothly and without any consequence to mid/late game. So don't you think the same dynamic applies to TvZ?

Btw, something useful when using SCManager when u want to know race: In the bottom left it has both players' names then parentheses with korean (chinese?) lettering. Terran is two characters like Zerg but you can differentiate between the two cuz Artosis is zerg. Protoss is four characters.
As a Protoss player I found it annoying to just 'hope' for a protoss game, so I was happy when I figured this out, just thought others might find this useful too.

my god man; these are not good games at all...

Perfect timing Artosis, right as I finished watching all the 17173 WC replays, tyvm.

According to various posts in the thread http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=127081¤tpage=6 v0.18.0.15655. 0.18 replay version automatically opens the APM chart. I seem to be having this problem with these Artosis' replays. I downloaded the official version which updated as soon as it launched. How are you guys getting it to work?
Edit: OK, not all his replays are those version. Those just won't work. The others are fine!

yay we need moar good players releasing replay packs
too bad most of the replays in this pack are completely one-sided and rarely reaching the 10 minute mark :/
|
Really enjoyed your first pack before I had the beta. Will probably enjoy these too
|
O.o In the side bar, I read "Artosis's Asian Replacement". Reps, good stuff!
|
idk whats gonna be more epic - artosis randomly bming all of his opponenets when he loses or his very high lvl zerg play. either way looking forward to watching this ty~

On June 14 2010 12:37 kNyTTyM wrote: Hi I have a question about zvp mid and late game armies. What is your preferred unit composition when dealing with a colossus based army? I was originally using the hydraling corrupter composition that Idra seemed to favor in his released games. However once colossus numbers reach 3+ I can't kill them all quick enough to not have my hydralisk army decimated. I've tried sniping the colossus before engaging with hydralisks but the stalker ball brings them down too quickly. An example of this was in Idra's games versus Tester in the altitude invitational.
You mentioned a roach into ultralisk style in your latest interview but that sounds pretty vulnerable to an immortal based play. Protoss should naturally build immortals upon seeing the roach base and that only helps his unit composition once you transition. Is it more of a hydra roach mix into ultralisks or straight on roach?
Last question is what do you think of a hydralisk ultra combination? I've been experimenting with it a ton in the unit tester/single player to decent affect. Resource wise it costs about the same as hydra corrupter as ultra = 2corrupters. To make up for the fast hive tech I cut carapace until later and rush ultralisks right after lair finishes. The ultralisks tank quite effectively while hydralisks deal out the damage. If he decides not to target ultras, they deal out a ton of splash damage to the clumped protoss ball.
there are 2 armies im liking right now.
the main army im practicing with is Roach/Ultralisk (with some lings mixed in because its a bit gas heavy). I'm really liking the build, and if they go immortals, that's great. you simply pump out hydras to join the army.
the second army im liking so far, is Roach/Hydra/Ling. I'm not completely sure yet, I've practiced this less than the Roach/Ultralisk army, but it seems good in theory and practice so far. I have no idea which is better.
As for the Hydra/Ultra army, I guess you would have to mix in tons of lings with that because its so gas intensive. Hydras are so slow, I dunno, I don't like to have armies based around them that much. You get one engagement and the games over. I'll try it out some though when the beta comes back.
