Korea cannot quit this damn game, the revival is Stronk! 1st Afreeca StarLeague Finals - Page 2

^^ yeah broodwar HD. nothing changes except the resolution and whole pain in the ass port forwarding requirements. I hope they don't remove LAN though, its really the best part of the game. Ill buy my copy after 15 years lol

Day 3 Effort Vs. Free pretty amazing game too. Working my way through them slowly ^^

I said "Well, this game is over" 2 or 3 times.

Those are the best games, where the game is so dead eve just 1 or 2 clicks actually make the difference, had he not trapped his units in the corner at the end he might have been able to hold him and keep the base and win the game, amazing stuff.

What I love about starcraft is that the skillcap is so insanely high, at all times there can be improvements like there are many times when somebody could expand or harass but he is doing sooooo much shit that they dont, or they dont explore certain area when they could etc, theres simply too much shit to do for a human to play near perfect.

Flash lost this one to Last. It was his tourney to lose and TVT is such a coinflip. Jaedong is set to return and Fantasy/Jangbi might take a year before we see them back. If the prizes and stream income increases we might see them.

sc2 > BW

says the guy who probably sucks at bw!!

Dota 2 > all.

Sc2 is for WoW players having a chance to transition into this strategy world.. Brood war the best and the hardest strategy game ever made

indeed not true. people overall don't get shield upgrades often enough, they are expensive but it really makes a big difference in how fast units melt. part of the reason is that often units will take both shield and armor upgrades (say you have a 3-3-3 carrier facing goliaths, and the carrier lost all the shield but then regenerated one shield, that one shield ends up absorbing 7 rather than 1 damage - for some goliath shots, fully upgraded carriers will get 20 points damage reduction. And then you're looking at 12 rather than 18 damage coming through from a fully upgraded goliath, and then you know that when carriers fight they're retreating a lot so they're not under constant fire thus they might have shields for most of the shots they receive.

I love bw so much that even mentioning how plasma shields upgrade armor rather than rate of regeneration makes me rant about it

14 year old build orders still work in some situations ^^ Funny too see the good old factory -> vulture into 2 starport wraith vs zerg in action.

imagine the 5 pool and bunker rushes being still viable strategies - used by both newbs and the best pros alike, but still varying in efficacy because even the most simple moves that are frowned upon has levels of skill in execution? me doing a 5 pool and jaedong or effort doing it makes a world of differnce. it's really an amazing game. you can't even see that in chess

Pros are so much better at defending against cheese though because they dont shy to use a lot of workers

why his tournament to lose?, he got steamrolled 3-0 by last, they didnt looked even close skillwise
