      same opinion on battlecruisers, they pretty much always make for an interesting game...unless they just end up showcasing how powerful vipers can be like in those mass cyclone games, it might make sense to force vipers to only eat units instead of letting them munch on buildings.

    • @MegaShrut
      @MegaShrut 6 лет назад +1

      I mean you can allow it do that, like to make it truly terrifying, letting it pull the data of the CPU (am not sure about exact location it’s either RAM/CPU. I believe it pulls of something from the memory bus while it’s in the CPU and not off the RAMbut don’t take my word for it) is OP-OP. So like for example, as soon as you target a stalker with your bunch it knows, and before the stalker laser hit yours, it blinks.

    • @MegaShrut
      @MegaShrut 6 лет назад +1

      @iohan Kellerman, like letting it do things outside is screen is pointless unless it playing against another AI, it will just like kill you with a perfect micro and triple drops. Like just pull the data of the CPU it’s tracks units and projectile everywhere, it can blink on two sides of map, use fungal growth and parasitic bomb simultaneously with like perfect, to just wreck you. I mean it looks cool but like it’s an unfair advantage

      @iohan Kellarman, I don’t think we plan to play giants other AI, but here’s a cool thing we are aiming for, so like it will have micro of someone normal great like innovation or Gumiho, will make micro error but will always win because of great scouting and perfect build order understanding and very unique play like it does for chess. That will truly be scary because like, Starcraft is all about shouting and understanding where enemy army is and we have seen something in the networks ! Keep your fingers crossed, we may win the next GSL, without godlike micro on stalkers

    TaeJa's widow mine drop at 30:19 was absolutely gold. Even though being way behind, Taeja proves that micro can change an uneven fight. I was almost 100 that he was going to GG, and altough he did, that play kept him in the game for another 5 minutes. That's what makes Starcraft such a good game

    Lowko, that game was FANTASTIC! Never have I stayed an entire hour for a SC2 match, but that BC swap was incredible. Even at the 50 minute mark I could've sworn Scarlet was gonna pick up the dub, but seeing that squadron of BC's come right at the end to save the Terran force brought a huge smile to my face. I'm always rooting for the BC's after the latest update, and it was awesome to see it overcome one of the greatest Zerg players of all time! You're the best, Lowko!

    I suppose this shows that if there's enough battlecruisers, even if you have enough infestors and vipers to control them properly, you simply might not have the damage output to actually kill them. Fungal growth keeps them in place but it doesn't stop them from shooting. As long as tactical jump is a thing, battlecruisers are going to have a use; the ability to be anywhere on the map at will is always going to be a powerful ability.

      It has to do with Larvae production and Drone count. The Extractor trick allowed her to get one more Drone while still getting all 3 Larvae out by the time the Pool finished. 15 or 14 Drones does make a small difference.

      Extractors cost 25 minerals, so you only lose 6. However, in most cases it isn't worth it, because you can end up losing more minerals than you gain if you don't pull it off correctly.

    so glad the BC sealed the deal. like 9 out of 10 games, mass BC would get wrecked by zerg so bad. Never even thought Taeja would jump the BC into the zerg army.

    I actually thought that Parasitic Bomb teleported with the BC..... looks like I was wrong! Hmmmm! Interesting. :)
