    I think the funniest moment in this series was seeing that Ultra coming down the ramp toward 20+ stalkers, and just immediately NOPE-ing out of there. XD

    I enjoy the focus on one player at a time, as it's cool to see what that player may be thinking or intending with their actions. I feel like if you tried to focus on both players, there would not be enough time to go into that detail.

    • @jamespitcher8163
      @jamespitcher8163 3 года назад +1

      Maybe try deliberately focusing on one player for 1 cast, then trying one as balanced as you can. Sould be good skill development and interesting to see what people like better.

  • @tyrellwreleck4226
    @tyrellwreleck4226 2 года назад

    In the last game, Dark could've build a spire as a preparation.
    When zest goes all in, he could've sacrifice his 3rd and 4th to make vipers.
    The ling counter attack was the best he can do but it seems like panicked and realized that he needs a spire.
    All he needs is blinding clouds.

    Are there ever any 2v2 or 3v3 games any more? I remember you did a 8 player which ended in an awkward 3 way standoff that dragged on for days, but it would be interesting to see some switch ups in regards to play style when working with a team mate.

    Actually Twitch was made for mobas like dota and battle royales like fortnite much more than it was built for starcraft. Starcrafts e-sports scene is great and all, and certainly 1 of the oldest considering broodwar still has a competitive scene over 2 decades later, albeit only in Korea IIRC. Still it's always been outshone by the above 2 genres and arguably FPS games too, be it counterstrike, cod or whatever.

    @sr.lontra 3 года назад +1

    Idk
    Seeing how little presence protoss have on tournments nowadays (it's always tvz, tvt or zvz on the finals and semi-finals), it's clear that that protoss have a really weak start
    Their basic units are so unreliable to survive the early aggressions. It really just leave us with void rays and such to keep playing.
    Protoss are slow and weak. We need time. And propper defenses
    Well. At least until 1-2 years ago
