[Incronaut]

[Nasty_Nate]

pocky pm it to me plz

 

[Kira-]

Spoiler

Cool is my hero

 

[Incronaut]

isnt cool switching races?

Tester is my hero.. but that last game of King of the Beta was.. interesting... i felt if he went for the expansions instead of the army it might have been different

 

[SFAT]

I wana play!

 

[The Greater Leon]

cool said he's not switching in the interview with artosis

 

[Squidster]

idra said he might go toss at MLG.

cool said he isn't switching but he'll still rage about zerg

dimaga might go terran

zergs everywhere *****ing a lot.

Id like to see Infestors neural parasite from underground

Zerg has very few cloaked threats in comparison with Terran and Protoss

 

[Squidster]

you could before with that glitch but i've heard they fixed it (i haven't tried it)

neural parasite should not suck

 

[Nasty_Nate]

I hear that the game actually puts priority on the infestor for units to attack it when it uses NP

what kinda sht is that

 

[JTB]

lol what

thats like

wat the ****

 

[Kira-]

then we should be able to target scvs when they heal thors

that's an interesting idea...

protoss only has dark templar when it comes to threats.. and two cloaked units total the other being the observer... i think that's pretty fair

terran have ghosts AND banshees which = ****

zerg have the ability for EVERYONE to burrow, but since no one can move and burrowing in itself can't harass or do much, it's a little underpowered imo.. i think they need zerg to be able to do one more thing while burrowed

 

[Nashun]

Protoss have mothership.

 

[Incronaut]

Protoss have mothership.

called.. totally forgot :/

 

[Nasty_Nate]

Observers are more deadly than you think. Its hard to push when someone knows exactly what your doing

 

[kirbyraeg]

Most people wouldn't let an observer stay in their base unless they were careless, even though not all terrans use their detection on their own base.

Observer snipes are pretty deadly.

Observers themselves are more for keeping you from being dead to banshees or DTs OMG

I wish DTs were as useful as they were in bw...but they still were pretty gimmicky then too.

 

[Kira-]

if i burrow a zergling in an expansion

can they make a building there?


edit - nooooo way

 

[kirbyraeg]

that is the greatest thing i've seen today

 

[Nashun]

Nah. Burrowed units keep stuff from building there.

 

[Nasty_Nate]

Dave thats one of my favorite strats. Especially against campy terrans. It usually delays their expos enough for me to get a nice 3 base going. Also when you get to that point you can simply send a zergling to each mineral patch and burrow, which I find far more useful than covering them with creep and risking ovie deaths.

Also that cake is amazing

@kirby- Good players know when the observer is going to be taken out and keep it in the immediate area to either go back into the base, or get intel on the position of the army. Therefore when you control the observer correctly you usually know when/where an army is heading out, which gives you a huge advantage. Also DTs are very very good in this game. They are just underused. In BW and SC2 they are only gimmicky for the lower level players.

 

[Squidster]

yeah man DTs are great. I don't people (esp toss) abuse how easy it is to snipe detection in this game. I've seen terran players go ghost and snipe overseers but needs more DT + blink stalkers sniping detectors. So good.

i snipe orbital commands to keep my DTs safe


YUP

edit: seriously though terran have so many ways of ****** stealth; scans, ravens, emp uguhughg

 

[Deleted member]

u have to abuse greedy terrans who mule all day

and micro like a champ when they do scan you and pray they don't kill you

to bad scan is enormous and not that this is something I should be complaining about but terran players (probably not very good) who forget to use mules/scans are rewarded with stealth detection lol

xP

 

[Deleted member]

true but there's a certain timing near the early-mid game where terrans still wanna macro up and they'll end up having like 0 energy due to just muling which can lead to potential rapage from dts

i think way better in sc1 in terms of gaying ability though

 

[Nasty_Nate]

First you run out of the scan, then you run back in, or send in the second dt

 

[Incronaut]

i just lost five games tonight... today is NOT my day

goodness i suck a lot more than i thought rofl

 

[PsychoMidget]

First you run out of the scan, then you run back in, or send in the second dt

yea i guess you shouldn't be keeping all your DTs together anyways

 

[Squidster]

1 DT to every xpo and one threatening their army at all times is a ***** to deal with

especially when you're sniping ravens / overseers / observers.

 

[Nashun]

I'd rather tech to mothership. It's like, the cost/time. DT tech is ridiculous.

 

[Lovage]

good luck im just gonna poop on every expo

 

[Squidster]

gsl finals in an hour O_O

 

[Nasty_Nate]
