    I legitimately forgot that roaches heal when burrowed. It used to be their defining characteristic, along with being heavily armored. They're tough to kill, like their namesake.

    After seeing how long bly contained soul on 2 bases i was sure that this was going to game 3 after what you mentioned @ 35:18 with him being up in supply as well but was pleasantly surprised. They both played very well and it was interesting to see someone go so hard in to a roach build as ive always liked the idea of burrowed roaches, i dont see players use roaches to make tanks kill each other nearly as often as id like to 🤣
    i was rooting for bly most of the time but either way it was an impressive series from both sides.

  • @guillaumedelage4457
    @guillaumedelage4457 3 года назад

    Excellent cast! It was really wonderful to watch. And I agree with you about what you're saying about APM. Bly and soul are fast, but I have the feeling that Reynor, Maru, Clem, Serral and all those top players are just faster, but also they are more accurate with them. I don't see, for example, Maru getting as much difficulties to deal with Bly's shenanigans as soul had (once he has figured it out, which is something else). Just because he is so good at being nearly everywhere at the same time. soul didn't show that amount of reactivity. He played nicely, but I can see why he isn't as high as you would like. He doesn't die to all the tricks Bly is using just because he's used to it. But I can't see him being able to stop players who just play faster and more accurately. And same goes for Bly. His gameplay is refreshing and I really like when you cast his games, but he has to be faster to be able to win against better players. He is good at making you frustrated. But some people are just impervious to this kind of mental warfare.

    I have a question which I have wondered for quite some time so could Mr. Lowko himself answer or someone else. Why do pro zergs seem to barely never use roach tunneling claws micro same way as protoss use stalker blink micro? Or even just regen health back up to roaches after a fight. I mean to me it at least feels like roach tunnel micro would be about as good as blink micro or do I miss something? is it just that zergs prefer to save the APM to something else?

    • @gigatrihard8607
      @gigatrihard8607 3 года назад +1

      Yup, zergs use APM mostly to outmacro opponents.
      To play super fast you propably doesn't want to mess with muscle memory which you are trying to preserve so thats why it is mostly absent.

    • @nekowarlock9329
      @nekowarlock9329 3 года назад

      ​@@gigatrihard8607 hmmm yeah was thinking bit same but when you explain it like that, yeah makes even more sense. But still there is one thing Im confused which is why zergs dont regen health back for roaches outside of the battle? I mean i dont think thats so micro heavy thing to do. I have seen many times in pro games when zerg has over 10 roaches on yellow health and never heal them back up by just getting burrow upgrade and burrow them down and then up. Or is the reason that they dont wanna risk that they forget roaches borrowed which might mess up things? but yeah I totally understand its really possible that they dont do tunneling claws micro in battle.

I would also guess that Lowko woudn't be allowed to only be an observer for us and post that content on YT since that is other guys:es jobs and i haven't seen any such SC2 content on youtube as well.

    I can't help but feel like making Siege Tanks in that last game was a mistake and that Soul should have instead gone for Banshees. They pick up Nydus Worms with ease and push back Roaches and Ravagers incredibly quickly. They are also basically immune to being biled down unless you micro them horribly. I do know they take a little longer to build, but they just seem like the perfect defense in that situation.
