did innovation just had a brain farT?

i tuned in and he had a bajiliion hellion and no anti air

this is like bronze league mistake

Taeja took out his Vikings/Raven and camped his starport

even then that sounds like a fuckng diamond league

not a mistake from the gsl winner

 

[StriKeVillain]

Blizzard looking like clowns at their own event.

 

[Aaron]

Innovation looks off. All these delays have probably gotten to him.

Also no emergency widow mines, instead he kept cranking hellions

Well he did lose 22 workers a few minutes prior and then the game DC'ed.

 

[kasane]

so i guess the run down is event has been shit with disconnects and ddos

games also seems like shit based on san vs life series

yay disappointment

 

[Wedge7]

That was just the icing on the cake

If only there was a technology to avoid all of that.

 

[kasane]

crowd so hype

KappaHD

 

[trw]

You can really tell the technical difficulties are getting to them. This is not wcs round of 8 quality.

 

[kasane]

So much gas

 

[kasane]

Such rage

So sad

 

[survivor]

What an underwhelming series. Good job Blizzard I guess.

 

[Aaron]

Disappointing end to what would have been a great series if not for the technical faults.

 

[Lethe82]

I only caught the last ten minutes of that match but it was pretty entertaining.

 

[leatherhat]

Hopefully the games I missed were better.

 

[demosthenes]

Blizzard get your shit together. You have 12 hours.

 

[Syf]

sucks the tech issues ruined that series. bleh. at least the semis should be good if they can smooth things out for tomorrow. rooting for winner of life vs taeja to take the whole thing

 

[Wedge7]

I wonder if we still get the show matches or if its too late

 

[Syf]

guess we are still seeing lotv in action tonight. this should be really interesting

 

[leatherhat]

Give me those blink BC's

 

[kasane]

shit i just started a game

 

[leatherhat]

shit i just started a game

Cheese 'em hard and then get back here quick.

 

[Crimsonlink]

He should take his time.... Kappa

What a disappointment. Innovation must be emotional and pissed as hell. But happy that Taeja has a chance at the championship.

Grabbed myself a bottle of Maker's Mark to enjoy the VODs with. Judging by the fact that it's still going, I'm gonna guess there was a ridiculous amount of downtime or really amazing games.

See ya'll on the other side.

Also, I just have to say that Smix looks stunning at this event. She is rocking that dress. <3

About to do the same, though I have some fat heads with me. Are you watching on twitch or is there somewhere else with the VOD's so I don't have to deal with a 13 hour video?

 

[Syf]

you guys will be doing a lot of skipping around if you're watching the full thing. lots of downtime

 

[leatherhat]

I love these new units!

 

[HolyCheck]

Seiged Seige Tank drops are a thing of beauty lol

 

[survivor]

Yeah these siege tanks drops getting nerfed for sure.

 

[PhoenixDark]

Hmm, perhaps 12 workers isn't as horrible of an idea I though. Speeds up the early game and mixed with the lowered mineral counts, it forces you to expand more/earlier. I'll keep my mind open on this.

 

[Syf]

terran so imba lmfao

 

[Won]

MC and Hyun getting all the new terran toys nerfed and removed right away.

 

[leatherhat]

I think a single pack of lings would have killed the cyclones

 

[Beesuit]

Terrains looking so good lol

Hercs and Cyclones

 

[unknownstranger]

Need Speedlings to catch them but yeah. Still stupid how large their range is.

 

[profit]

My thoughts exactly.

I'm loving the changes, even though a lot is going to be nerfed by release sadly enough.

Increasing the number of workers is a good idea. The 5 minutes of dead time at the beginning of each match adds up.

I think a lot of the changes look very interesting. I stopped playing SC2 years ago, and these changes make it look more micro intensive. Looks fun.

 

[Beesuit]

Tank drops gonna be the next best thing ever.

EDIT: Also RIP 6 pool.

 

[Syf]

yep I like the first look at the changes too. needs to be balanced but there's a lot of interesting micro with the new units in tvz and I like the 12 worker start helping to speed up the early game

 

[Wedge7]

lol those deadly cyclones just murdering everything

 

[kasane]

i missed it bummer

might see it later or might not

 

[kasane]

i think 12 workers are a bit over kill

 

[Lethe82]

I thought there were less patches and less per patch but I guess not, or will that only be on new lotv maps?

Dunno if you found it already, but if not, you can just goto http://us.battle.net/blizzcon/en/live-stream/ and start the SC2 stream, and fast foward to about the 4 hour mark. Should be good from that point.

That's like the one change that i'm certain is a good thing. The rest though....

 

[unknownstranger]

I have no idea how PvZ will change in LotV from the show match. Disruptor seems kind of useless because of how immobile it is. Ravager's ability seems kind of useless too because of how hard it is to land but it makes retreating easier. Not sure if they get a damage buff when they morph from Roaches but I would imagine so. I'm expecting Swarm Hosts to cost less in both resources and supply because of how much less uptime they have. Corruptor's new ability does so little damage. I'm expecting a buff by the beta. The new Oracle ability I think will make Stargate into 7gate popular by slowing Zerg reinforcements.
