Analyzing My Recent Games in ASL Qualifier

[@milesg7877]

I would like to see him cast himself when he doesn't know its him playing.

[@ChrisLT]

If there was a way for him to watch replays from people he knows, but hide the names. So he could secretly be commenting over Tasteless or Scan or himself.

Amazing how much happier you are when you aren't getting cheesed.

[@PokettoMusic]

artosis is just making a few non optimal moves, but damn he is playing well

[@iamthem.a.n.middleagednerd1053]

I feel like if Artosis could somehow get to a point financially where he didn't have to work for about 6 months he could play hard core 80 hour weeks and get to a Professional level. He's so close to hanging with the big boys.

[@BLooDCoMPleX]

Nah, he is vastly above average, don't get me wrong, but people who compete on ASL are on a whole different level.

[@abstractdaddy1384]

Great game. Love the analysis. I like the experimenting with mines and firebats and the greater emphasis on BCs. Really exciting stuff.

[@peteraaser370]

I wish we'd see this version of arty more

i love tournaments; everyone plays just a little bit better than usual its fantastic.

gg. the vulture idea is a realistic approach to that segment of the match.

[@hippiemcfake6364]

Caught this at 420 views. I really like you analysing your own tournament play, makes your game knowledge shine SO much more than when you play ladder and discover that yes, even after decades of the game being out, protoss players can still recall in your main.

[@samwooseong1811]

I love that you went through your thinking process while playing the match! Well done!

[@ernestwest6861]

I love the idea of mineral dumping vultures. It’s one of the few ways to effectively fight against dark swarm. And vultures are so cheap you are almost guaranteed to trade favorably if you get the mines out

[@machupicchu5484]

Man thank you a lot for your videos i always have a good time watching them

[@christopheryip433]

the BC move was something JyJ did in the ASL round of 16 I think

[@UpkeepLLC]

GG Artosis, I just wanted to say the last GSL and recent ASL was some of the best casting I’ve heard from you and Tasteless. Thank you!

[@shuangshao]

Yamato canon is great with so many BCs built. You can easily take bases with Yamato cannon even if you lose BCs eventually. BTW Yamato cannon has 10 range which is much longer that attack range, you can snipe defiler with it.

[@gfdgdfgdfgdfggfdgdfgdfgdfg9709]

As a Zerg player I would fear most if terran would attack my tech buildings. Like if he focuses down my nydus, pool, den, ultra cavern, defiler mound, queens nest and of course the hive. I like him finding new ways to fight. The vulture strat is excellent against the ultra ling because it makes the zerg player need invest more actions. The shield on the bcs is also awesome. What I miss terrans doing what makes them so much stronger is using their buildings to block the path of melee units out on the field. Terrans can fly their buildings and toss zealots and zerg lings and ultras have to walk so much more to attack units when a building is blocking their path. This is ideal to protect tanks against zealots, but I can see this work against zerg too. It's leapfrogging but I think terran buildings with their big size are such a strong defence. Only problem that can happen is if it's done in a fight units will block the landing. So it works best with tanks... I think it helps to play other races too to learn what they are afraid of. While artosis does play extremely well, I miss details like him focussing on zerg tech buildings, which is their biggest weakness. Artosis shouldn't fight a zerg like the zerg fights artosis. It feels more like an offensive defensive move, going guns blazing against a zerg.

[@zeddpilsner4]

More videos like this please!

[@zdenekmatula550]

Artosis for president!

[@joshstelsel5894]

Honestly needed more bats in the end for ling ultra

[@DeepMoonWave]

i'm confused about the firebat tactic. do they hit under dark swarm? or is it only their splash? how does that interaction work?

[@JWorkAnimations]

Firebats arent affected by dark swarm at all, i think its one of the only terran units with that trait

[@RichardJamesMendoza]

Firebats shoot 3 circles of splash damage with their fire attack animation (outward the unit) which makes them different from Marines and makes them the only effective unit under Dark Swarm.

[@raze667]

I'm most excited because this means there is another ASL they'll do coverage for. yes?

[@sku6243]

Great game and great ideas! Maybe yamato is worth so you can insta snipe gas with your 3 BCs when you harass?

[@fcb90-w8w]

So you pass de qualifier?

[@DArtagnonW]

91 kills... That's a pretty good kdr.

[@Kawencins]

its possible play firebat/medic + goliaths vs Z ?

[@cwjalexx]

It's possible it's just very very bad. The cost of having to upgrade both bio and mech means a lot less units. Furthermore, the gas cost of firebat medic would mean less goliaths and the ONLY thing the firebat would be good against is zergling...and goliaths are already good against zerglings. It would also be much harder to micro since you would need a control group for the bats, one for the medics, and one for goliaths. The biggest problem is that this composition simply doesn't counter anything. Pure hydra would easily kill it. Pure muta would easily kill it. Hydra+muta would kill it. Hell, even lurkers probably wouldn't be too bad against it. The only thing it might work against is pure zergling which nobody would ever do...and goliaths alone could take care of it.

[@Virtua..]

Micro the drops and do more late game drops too, you aren't breaking 4 + base zerg sending in 3 BC's or random MNM vs strong orange cloud

[@delonho2]

Should have won that first game! Aiya.

awesome work game 1 you lost but you still played really well!

[@rusumihai3553]

@@dew9103 The thing i know its when i play micro custom maps like sat control, when i get terran units they perform far better than other races , zerg units are the worst . like look , mines in front of tanks , and medics with rines , are quite rigid units in some sense , if are not vastly outnumbered a group of marines can kill an army. certainyl without spells u cant win . then u get iradiate and emp which proves developers made broodwar from terran perspective .

[@vilmosdibuz4408]

Honest question. Why don't pro players tell each other their spawning location to lower the randomness?

[@chad2643]

Gathering information in a game with fog of war is one of the most important elements of a strategy game. Being able to decipher where your opponent is and what they are doing at all times is up to you as a player and eliminating parts of that by telling each other where you are takes away from the challenge. Also a lot of opening strategies would be made useless due to the fact that catching an opponent off guard is much less likely. Things like cheese do suck to lose to but they are part of the checks and balances of keeping people from becoming ultra greedy in the game.

[@vilmosdibuz4408]

@@chad2643 Yes that seems reasonable but then why does SC2 do this?

[@chad2643]

​@@vilmosdibuz4408 sc2 rarely uses 4 player maps i believe, and on those maps i think they only high light potential starting locations not saying where exactly your opponent spawned.

[@Hatchumosc1]

All that analysis makes sense, but honestly I think you might have won if you just got/used Yamato effectively. But I guess I'm just guy in the chat.
