You know how the Navy Seals are portrayed as the best military branch of the world? It actually is the same with NA Masters players in Starcraft 2. With the only exception, that they do it themselves and they actually are neither skilled nor scary at all. But still this NA Masters EXPERT has identified an imbalance. Can I even contradict? Smash like and find out!

Please do not ask me, what happened with the trade info panels... It somehow swapped the font for it, which does not make ANY sense - heck - it should not even be possible, since they use the same template as the other panels, but here we are. So I had to choose between no episode today, or publish it like this. Hope you guys don't mind the messed up formatting... Enjoy!

I started on Tetris and Super Mario Bros. Funny story. We first got it when we were on a road trip. My Dad had my Mom drive, so that he could "show me how to play." This is what my Mom hears from me.

What's most baffling to me is the submitter complaining that it's "impossible" to scout whether the Zerg is continuing the roach all-in or switching to eco... with two void rays within scan range of an undefended fourth that could have answered that question by just drifting an inch to the southwest.

I'm not sure if this is a bad play, but if I were the Protoss & saw 14 Hatch & a faster than usual Pool (went down at 0:55 instead of 1:15) I would reactively make a Zealot while the Cyber Core is building. This would allow me to have something blocking the wall so that lings couldn't get in (lings coming 20 seconds earlier than a normal Hatch first, closer to a Pool first time) & then I would get an Adept that could shade in to scout to see if it's fast Bane Nest, Roach Warren, Lair (Nydus?) or speed & then I'd cancel the shade & walk home & play based on my scout. Sure a Zealot cost 100 minerals, but that's a smaller investment than going Hatch, gas & Pool all before overlord, making lings sooner instead of those larvae on drones. I think I'd go Stargate + a Void either way, but if Nydus keep making Voids & don't let overlords near the base. If Bane Bust get a Sentry & he already had the double wall set-up, save energy for super battery. If Roaches get Stalkers as the Gateway choice. If speedling flood get Adepts as the Gateway choice. There is so much scouting/decision making this guy could have done even before the Void Ray(s) were out. As a side note, it's not always "bad" to be boring. If you stop a Roach/Rav push off of a worse than usual economy (for the Zerg) just add a 2nd Stargate & mass Voids & then go into either Skytoss or go into ground after a double Void opening, it'll play out even better than usual as Zerg took a late 3rd (so triple Queen production will come online later) & Zerg invested in an early Roach Warren & failed the attack. A double Void opening could probably kill both the 3rd & 4th base of the Zerg & any Queens trying to stop it, then the game would be a Protoss taking a 3rd base before the Zerg gets a 3rd up, & those Voids with map control could scout anything, kill overlords, harass, be recalled to defend, etc.

Ironically the directional antenna was discovered in 1926 by Hidetsugu Yagi. Despite this the British actually were the first to employ the system in a military context. When the Japanese captured British radar technicians in the Battle of Singapore they questioned the technician as to what the "Yagi" antenna was. Under interrogation they revealed that "Yagi" was the name of the Japanese who invented the antenna, so it seems inventing the technology isn't enough. You also have to use the technology.

early military adoption of radio is so fascinating. you'd think that such a sophisticated and groundbreaking technology would be something that would be developed in secret labs and rolled out en masse, but it was the opposite with drafted radio enthusiasts making battlefield radios from bits of scrap and usage slowly climbing up the ladder by discerning commanders.

I made a few mistakes that taught me what mistakes not to make. This guy played random, so i suppose he doesn't know toss well. If you see that many mutas and you tech into anion crystals, it's very wise to spend the 150/150 on a 2nd stargate, because it doubles your production and keeps you a lot more flexible, for little more than the cost of a single phoenix. If opponent techs heavily into lurkers, 2nd robo facility should come in handy. If opponent techs into roaches heavily and catches you by surprise, a 2nd robo also can save your life. Buildings really aren't very expensive compared to units, so they're rarely a waste.

@@Name-ru1kt Archons are awful vs mutas, because they're too slow and they tend to attack the mutas at the corner of the cluster, minimising the AoE. If a muta-player plays well, you need 2 archons + shield battery on every base, otherwise they won't be able to do anything vs mutas. Blink stalkers are okay vs mutas but not that amazing either because they tend to split their fire too much. Phoenixes without range are very micro-intensive vs muta but are good, with range are insane. There's little that hardcounters as much as ranged phoenix vs muta. I guess colossi vs zerglings counters similarly well.
@Name-ru1kt
@Name-ru1kt Жыл бұрын
@@asdfasdf-mn8iu ironically he could of afforded that. But I kinda doubt that this person could magic box archons especially when your sending zealots to their bases. What is more likely what will happen is the zerg will run all the mutalisk in a big bunch and the archon will hit every single one. Some mutalisk almost always die when they try to go in against blink stalker. Also archons do work super super well. Mutalisk cost 100 minerals 100 gas. Archons cost two dt which is a total of 250 minerals 50 gas. Even if the archon gets two mutalisk kills then its a good trade. By the time it dies warped in stalkers or ones made already will arrive. And the muta might kill some workers but will lose even more doing so

Right, says the guy with shield batteries and instant warp in which makes F2ing so much more feasible while defending because if the Protoss F2s his defending units he can warn in new ones to defend or use a super battery. Zerg has to be more careful with F2 because they need to leave defensive units or they're guaranteed to lose a base to a drop.

lol this guy lets zerg double expand after failing an all-in and this calls it imba, he had 2 void rays on zergs side of the map sniping overlords and turns around for absolutely no reason at all. Also him trying to call out protoss for having bad scouting? Bruh you can get practically guaranteed scouting intel with hallucinated phoenix + obs. Zerg has to sacrifice an overlord to scout terran or protoss and if the other player is being active about denying scouting they likely won't see too much of value. He also didn't get archons or build the fleet beacon for phoenix range as the DTs were distracting zerg, missed out on sniping one of the hatcherys with his stalker runby around 17:30, he could've recalled them right before the mutas came back and taken a great trade.

How is *Corp a master?? 8:30 Can't be bothered to focusfire and target the most damaged unit, an endemic problem throughout. 10:35 What is that voidray movement?? Can't be bothered to harass front base, maybe fly into main and harass. Doing so is low risk because recall is a thing. 12:48 Finally flies into main, kills 5 overlords and a queen for free! (zerg has no spores, mineral line also vulnerable) 14:58 Instead of addressing the muta threat with continuous phoenix production (get 2nd stargate?), spends a minute microing DTs under overseers. 28:02 Endemic lack of vision leads to 42 supply throw. The game is over. Recommendation: 1. Play the "mass observer" challenge - you're only allowed to attack/harass where observers *in observer mode* give vision. 2. Maybe try "damaged only" healthbar setting, will make units you should focus pop out more.

I think part of the problem is that he's really bad at disengaging. Very frequently, his opponent had zerglings nipping at his heels and he doesn't take his best DPS unit to attack just once to deal with it. The whole army is moving and tripping over each other. Select the highest health archon or immortal, move it to the front, blast some lings. Or if you're going to lose the unit anyway, have it stand its ground and take some units down with it rather than losing it for free. EDIT: OK, I was too harsh at first. He actually gets better about this later in the game. 34:52 is proof.

To be fair, Frodo was basically running around Middle Earth, offering ring to everyone who asked (except poor Boromir and Gollum). So he may have as well be screaming it out loud. :D

Just listening to this balance complaint submission, this guy sounds like the type of guy who spends more time writing essays about zerg imbalance than ever watching his own replays or learning how to actually play the game.

How is he a Master with 4.4k MMR? His Macro is all over the place and not keeping up with the production at all. No offense, althought some of his A move, run by control looks pretty decent. But, did he only match up with players who were fresh diamonds or gold below? Did he bought this account off his friend or borrowed his friend's account to share this complaint. I am really confused.

Maybe there are tendencies, in the dynamic game, which often look like imbalances. Protoss don't like to lose their armies. If you beat a protoss army, you have won in most cases. But if you just get their economy, well, things are not so clear. Sometimes you get an army engagement 20 seconds later beacuse of allin and you have no chance. Terrans can reproduce their armies again and again, if you just beat the 2 medivac + 12 marines, you have to to that maybe 30 times, to get a real advantage, but if you come inbetween their production buildings, you have won most of the time. Zerg is maybe the strongest in macro, so only beating the army or only beating the eco might not be enough. but they have the weakest trades and must watch out for their economy all the time. That is part of the balancing. Very general explanation, but sometimes useful when you decide what race to play. And please you can very easily misunderstand that, if you don't know this deeply enough. This dynamics are part of the imbalanced balancing, which makes SC2 so great.

I am not amazed that Europeans speak multiple languages, and among them English, very well. However, I am amazed at the level of Harstem's English vocabulary, since it's not his first language. He has a slight accent, but I could see a lot of Americans being fooled into believing English was his first language.

For Protoss players from Zerg player, there's one scouting tool that is underutilized. "Hallucination Phoenix".. just mana and speedy scout that doesn't even cost army supply for you.
