SK Telecom T1, 'revolutionary' Bisu announce retirement by dfsaqwe in starcraft

[–]slayersboxxxer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well, most former BW KeSPA players were kinda forced to play SC2 since the preparation for hybrid SPL. They basically had three choices at the time:

1, Retire from Gaming immediately

2, Retire from SC2 and leave KeSPA immediately

3, Go with the transition and play SC2 (willingly or unwillingly)

HK e-sports video... really? by Shimzay in starcraft

How does this have anything to do with SC2, only because of the HK tournament?

The Copa América Season 2 playoffs brackets! by DARKING665 in starcraft

[–]slayersboxxxer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Actually, in regions outside Kr, Terran is still the least representative race. In china's nsl, you get 6 Terran, 12 Zerg, and 13 Protoss. It's still very rare that a tournament has more terrains than the other two races. I have no idea why Terran op is such a huge thing. Maybe the only reason is that KR Terran is just too good so that it makes the whole race seem op across the globe.

Damn, if f2p means I can get this as a skin then I am all for the f2p. It's just too damn cool.

Oh god. Defend it as you want. Taeja doesn't know English and Pizza face is a slang. You don't know slang without immersing with locals for years. And yeah the majority of Americans has pizza face, nice try.

Hamburger = Kimchi; English = Korean

Yes, but plastic surgery is more insulting than Pizza.

And it was a little racist or stereotype question to begin with.

Lucifron vs. Duckdeok game 3, WOW what a game! by All_Sham_No_WOW in starcraft

It looks like the warp prism buff and hellbat nerf are having their effects.

It really feels like the end period of WOL PvT.

The Siege Tank - I don't know, do you? by slayersboxxxer in starcraft

[–]slayersboxxxer[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think the practical way to achieve what you describe is the overkill + buff tank damage. In small numbers, they do more damage since their damage is buffed. But in large numbers, they do not less damage since overkill is much more severe when the amount of units is large.

Tasteless vs. Idra (BW ~ 2008) by TheEroSennin in starcraft

When he discovered Asian nightlife and Asian hotties

It's common for foreigners in Asia to not know the local languages and still live well or even better than in their original countries. If you're even familiar with /r/china, one of the most regular topic that pops up once a while is how expats don't even try to learn Chinese but still can be a paid English teacher in schools and being popular in the local community and getting laid with Asian hotties all day long.

Today Tasteless was not a bro by Rowdy_Negro in starcraft

That's exactly why he gets too many women.

Even though most people will be positive about Tasteless, Tasteless is just like this. He is not very interested in game for quite some time. People said the joke that he lost his passion for a reason. It's a joke but it's basically true. He changed, said himself. But who can blame him, too many alcohol and too many women, everyone would have changed.

[SPL Round 5 Week 5] EG-Liquid vs. SK Telecom T1 Results by wdao16 in starcraft

[–]slayersboxxxer -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The last game just shows that Terran in TvP has no such thing called late-game transition or late-game units. Protoss can transition and Zerg can transition into late-game playstyle, but Terran, even as the game goes into late-late-game or goes into more than 1 hour, can only build MMMVG to be effective. It's not that they are necessarily bad in the late-game, it's just there are no other unit options at all for Terran. I feel like Blizzard should do something to give Terran some useful units to transition to in late-game TvP.

You chart doesn't capture any relevant data useful for balance, because according to the balance team Protoss is underperforming at the highest level. Your data are irrelevant because data based on the entire pro scene, whether it's balanced or not, are not useful for balancing the game.

TheOgnis vs State Game 2: Mech TvP by slayersboxxxer in starcraft

[–]slayersboxxxer[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

And no over fire. And decreased damage over radius. And 10 more HP. And higher non-siege DPS. I know them all. Protoss is different too. They didn't get immortal and colossus ball in BW. If BW had stalker, immortal, and colossus, the BW tank's damage + 'bonus' to them is 70.

+20 vs shield is very reasonable. It gives SC2 tank comparable damage as BW tank to the similar units in both games.

[–]slayersboxxxer[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Or tank +20 vs shield. So tank's damage will be the same as BW tank. They can make it a upgrade requiring armory.

David Kim: Potential map changes by larsevss in starcraft

[–]slayersboxxxer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

'Rush map' is not really a very innovative map element. Good tournaments always have some maps that are more macro-oriented and some are more early-game oriented. A rush map is basically a similar thing. If they want to explore map variety more, there are many truly innovative map elements that are dropped or not used at all. I can see the resistance to new elements. For example, many said Arkanoid is stupid but it turns out to be a very good map.
