Apparently, there is a Starbow tournament going on at the moment. I thought people may be interested given the conversation about it yesterday. Bunch of streams for it on the sidebar at TL.

Yeah, I was just about to post about it.

I'm watching on BaseTradeTV: http://www.twitch.tv/basetradetv

Looks incredibly interesting. Never even thought about SC2 not ever being able to have any tight choke points because of the fact that force fields exist.

I'm actually loving this. Definitely gonna follow wherever it goes in the future. I hope it gets enough of a fan reaction that Blizzard takes notice.

 

[Aaron]

I really wish Blizzard had the balls to remove force fields, but it'll never happen. Protoss instantly become more interesting.

I heard an idea somewhere regarding giving force fields HP so they can actually be destroyed. But yeah, fuck logic.

Also in Starbow: ONE GEYSER PER EXPO HYYYPE

 

[Aaron]

He should get an arbiter. They're so op.

 

[SamuraiX-]

If only Irradiate was somehow introduced into SC2. Would actually force players to control/micro mass Muta balls beyond just 1-A'ing them. What a concept!

Woke up to see this (assuming we're talking the same tournament) running. Wish granted!

 

[Crimsonlink]

TB showing the SC2 community some loving

SO FREAKING EXCITED! I will sub to this and support this however I can.

I just really wish Prime was in on this, they really could use the help with their B teamers needing experience.

Looks like Starbow is really becoming legit.

Team Razer Presents the Razer Starbow Tournament for $500

 

[Aaron]

I think it still needs some fine tuning, but overall I like watching it a lot. If I didn't just finally get into Hearthstone beta, I'd probably be reinstalling SC2.

 

[Sibylus]

Yeah, I can't speak at all for how it plays, but as a spectator it's grabbing my attention at a time when vanilla sc2 becomes easier and easier to sort of tune out inadvertently.

 

[Zen]

MKP streamed again adn asked this question

 

[zargle]

"Has everyone really been far even as decided to use even go want to do look more like?"

I just wanted to type that out to see if it made more sense. It did not.

 

[Aylinato]

O man,driest jasonng Nate Rick and I get to own people in 4v4 now I get an invite to hearthstone beta. What a damn good week for games for me.

 

[AdventureRacing]

Starbow definitely looks interesting. It just needs a fair bit of work in the way some units work and look. It needs the sort of fine tuning that it probably won't get as a mod. Still it's a good thing that it's getting so much attention and i hope blizzard pays attention to why.

Sir I'm gonna have to call the Console police to your house for abuse! How dare you destroy that PS3 controller! ;b

 

[Yoshichan]

Fuck PS3 and all it's successors.

Oh and fuck consoles overall.

Bold + underlined is key.

But after David Kim's response to the fan-made in-depth analysis video showcasing SC2 vs BW animations, I'm not holding my breath.

May I suggest you look into professional help for attempting to get to the root of how you suffer from extreme destructive rage. I don't mean that snidely, Yoshi! Though avoding or lessening triggers might not be a bad idea!

 

[Yoshichan]

There are no roots for it. I just dislike shitty games more than everyone else, and I show that in my own special way.

More controllers bought to replace that one!

 

[Hazaro]

flashhhhhhhhhhhh whyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy

Also yay Starbow

Worthless quality anyway :/

MKP streaming if you want to watch. I'm going to sleep and watching the vods later.

It's a little different when you have thousands of people tuning into streams watching this mod and tons of people playing it. There are now even going to be tournaments for it. Surely if it keeps garnering more attention blizzard can't ignore it forever.

Then again they ignored DOTA until it became basically the biggest genre in gaming so who knows.

 

[Sibylus]

Blizzard ignoring Starbow isn't really a problem. If they (somehow) bork up the modding tools again? Yes.

 

[Aaron]

Even in Starbow, pvp is the most boring thing ever.

Fuck you for console abuse.

 

[Yoshichan]

I'm quoting the game that caused me to break it: DmC.

"Fuck you!"

"FUCK YOU!!"

"FUUUUUCK YOOOOOOOOOUUUUU BLLLLLAASSRGGGGFHHHH"

 

[Zen]

DMC isn't even a hard game!

 

[SamuraiX-]

If WCS isn't screwing them over, they're screwing over themselves. lol

If you broke your controller because of how horrible DmC is then we're gud

This.

DmC gets a lot of hate it doesn't deserve because of a lot of stuff that has nothing to do with the game itself, it's quite good even for/as a Devil May Cry game.

I hate the characters so it made the experience unpleasant. The gameplay is ok tho

Well damn its better to support MLG than the other 2 imo though Tod's does have a higher skill tourney.

 

[Syphon Filter]

Anyone check out brood war here and there? Still has hide n seek, so fun. Need to find a sniper map.
