SK Telecom T1 s2 Retires
TY signs with KT Rolster
Finally KT has someone who can who can legitimately backup Flash, but damn, that Jin Air Green Wings roster looks just depleted right now. I guess this means we get to see more of Cure!

And they made him a Lord of Cinder. Not for virtue, but for might. Such is a lord, I suppose. But here I ask. Do we have a sodding chance?

the hatchery is moving, then the photon cannons and pylons are moving.
Yeah, but how and why?
was bound to happen! sc2 can't really support the amount of Koreans in it. I look forward to the eventual esf-kespa consolidation
Most of us watch more than play nowadays so we can definitely attest to that. hah
TvT and TvZ continue to be the GOAT matchups.

Fuck 4 Colossus + HT + DT and Gateway armies. Give us back 2.0 Radius EMP Blizzard!
On that note, if I catch a Protoss GAFFER on SC2, please practice late game with me.

Nostalgia time!
Sensor Tower used to be upgradable to a Radar Tower. At that time Sensor Towers gave detection to surrounding Missile Turrets, while the Radar Tower functioned like todays Sensor Tower.
Munitions Depot needed to unlock Thors.
Orbital Command used to be called Surveillance Station, and required an Engineering Bay.
Merc Haven needed to unlock Reaper and Shadow Ops, which was needed to unlock Ghosts.
Factory used to produce Vikings and Cobras, a unit similar to the Diamond Back from the campaign, that could move and shoot at the same time.
Starports could build Predators, the feline robot from campaign. Additionaly it could be upgraded to a Star Base, which made it airborne. This mean it could produce while flying!
Also, Banshees had splash damage.
Deep Space Relay was replaced by the Fusion Core.
The Nomad - Blizzcon 2007
It was replaced by the Raven. It used to be able to deploy an Auto-Turret and repair mechanical units.
Each tier of tech unlocked a new kind of Queen. Queens used to have to evolve from Queen to Large Queen to Huge Queen, and had some sort of limitation on how many you could have.
Deep Warren ulocked Lurkers!
Nydus Network used to be the building needed to unlock Hive.
Infestor Pits were tier 3.
Spawning Pools used to look like a derp face.
Greater Spire unlocked Swarm Guardians.
Infestor 2008
Lurkers, Swarm Guardians and Infestors - 2008
Phase Cannons. Cannons that could go into warp mode and move to a new place with pylon power and redeploy. Just like todays Spine and Spore Crawlers.
Cybernetics Core unlocked Stasis Orb, later replaced by the Sentry. Many iterations of this unit was proposed, among them the Nullifier and the Distruptor.
Null Circuit required to unlock Observers.
Warp Prism used to be called Phase Prism.
Void Ray used to be called Warp Ray.
Twilight Council was needed to unlock Immortals for Warp In on Warp Gates.
Dark Shrine was called Dark Obelisk, and used to have some abilities.
Warp Rays and Tempests
Star Relics and Phoenix
Reavers (RIP) :'(

Man I think I had zero interest in SC back then, I dont remember any of this.
Breaking Out! - A Series to Build The NA SC2 Scene
Really cool initiative by feardragon. NA needs all the help it can get.

Something during his winner's interview from WCS EU Group H... I was watching the interview but I must've completely missed it. lol
Surely there'll be a VOD up somewhere soon.
rofl
I love it. MC is the shit.
Bwahaha, MC just (randomly?) deciding to shit on genius for the lulz is the best.
Hey more power to anyone helping out the NA scene. I do hope it succeeds. I'll subscribe.

Oh SC2... imagine, building up an army for 15 minutes... and the fight ending in less than 2 seconds.
God, this game is horrible.

The fact that it's POSSIBLE to even kill a maxed out army in less than two seconds is BAD GAMEPLAY. Everything in SC2 just does so much fucking damage. It doesn't matter if you're Kas, Flash or IdrA.
yoshi stop talking and go back to looking cute

It's not the amount of damage units do. Tanks, reavers, psi storm, plague etc were EXTREMELY powerful. The bigger issue to me is how clumped up everything is and how fast everything moves. That plus i think overall units tend to take more supply, a maxed out army in SC2 is a lot smaller than a maxed out army in BW (plus you have a lot more probes/scvs/drones in SC2).
Day9 had a good idea back in the first year or so of SC2 - increase max pop to 300. You worker count would stay relatively the same, possibly increase by 1 expansion or so, but you get to play with 80-100 more supply of units, allowing for a decent base defense while having a sizable moving army to make plays with.

Imagine the protoss airdeathball... oh my god.
I would just mass thors

I can't help but feel that this would just add to the deathball even more. Before SC2 was announced i was kind of hoping that it would just be BW with new units and a bigger pop cap but with currently i think it would probably make things worse.

And unit select cap! Force people to actually use the the numbers above 1-3 on their keyboards
bring back tiny stashes in d3 and no shared stashes!!! And Skill points!
