Scarlett's endless Zerg Rush! StarCraft 2

[@arandomperson8336]

Banelings don't have arms? What about 3 banelings standing on top of each other and wearing a trench coat?

[@redwings13400]

There's something so satisfying about watching massive zerg armies break apart a terran defense. Its just such a cinematic experience, the zerg in the hands of a good pro player really feel like this unstoppable overwhelming terrifying alien force that will just throw bodies at you until you can't handle it anymore.

[@seventyfour8256]

Cannot agree more! Look how Scarlet is channeling her forces in a giant wave. And if the opponent survives this, the next wave will already be coming. And it ll be EVEN larger!

When born, they feel trapped in the wrong body, and so try to socially present themselves as the opposite gender to feel more comfortable with themselves.

My friends this is the counterpoint to the earlier cast Winter did on Byun vs Reynor. Byun makes banelings look like they are a waste of gas and dominates and Cure makes it look like hiding behind a wall with seige tanks is the only way to avoid losing your army to those same banes. Just play like Byun? Scarlett on the other hand, if you don't get her drone count down, is going to hold down the army keys until you die, she doesn't stop.

[@Hierax415]

A real shot at an answer, probably because she almost had a work-life balance compared to her peers she didn't go hardcore monk in her teens and early 20s. It's also worth saying that whatever your think about her transition it must have been at least a little distracting/disruptive compared to many pro's that are literally living in a game house from age 16 and focused to the exclusion of all other things. Now she is 29 and that's ancient in pro gaming years (it's starting to show in her micro), she is also branching off into LoL, and it's hard to stay at the top when you are splitting your time. I don't care if she isn't the best, she is super fun to watch and the only Canadian I get to root for.

[@mikeymyke]

It's mind-numbingly frustrating to see ZvT matches where the Z player has to work ridiculously hard to beat T, losing unit after unit (hydras, banes, mutas) while a 50 mineral marine can be so cost effective.

[@MrCreed145]

That fight at 21:00 that winter said went well for cure probably cost him 500-1000 minerals in repair. Hydras are still too expensive. Take off 25 gas or minerals, or add like 10hp. Cant trade with them for shit. Game two she took the muta risk. Hydras and mutas are just so damn fragile AND expensive. Atleast muta can fly, making them good for suprises. 99% of the time when someone spots them and makes turrets if zerg doesn't bail on the mutarisk they loose. Especially against terran. Widow mines are invisible, do splash damage, and cost less than/about same as a hydra.

[@justincronkright5025]

The problem has always been that Protoss' ability to deal with them when they are strong is ridiculously lacking & now that things focus on carriers it's easier for hydras and mutas (the latter isn't too useful though) to take on the carriers. Phönixes I think need a slight buff in that they should reduce armour I think - like the devourer from SCI, where it'd just be a basic reduction against *armoured* air units or armoured targets on the ground (but it doesn't/wouldn't stack). Balancing Phönixes & Mutalisks with the things they need to be good at has been a problem from the start for SCII. Hydras I think have needed an ability like charge, where they reverse whilst shooting once before fully retreating. Or they need their stats increased in terms of health, but reduce something elsewhere... Maybe even just buff hydras with +5-10 H.P.s, but then do a minor nerf elsewhere & then increase Lurker morph/research time. Because buffing hydras inherently makes lurkers stronger (i.e. you can sustain or up your position too much which enhances subsequent lurkers).

[@MrCreed145]

@@justincronkright5025 zerg can't shoot up until mid game. And it's only ground unit that can shoot up sucks. If you want to fight air at all its a HUGE commitment to go air. You need atleast lair and spire takes a million years. So your left with the hydra off creep. But it's bad. The roach is basically a better tradable version of a hydra. At this point delete hydra and bring back scourge. It's just way to expensive for how fragile it is. Needs to be cheaper or have more health. It's comparable in cost to a dragoon except they have more health, and shields, and can blink.

[@arankoka]

@@MrCreed145 hydra have therefore DOUBLE the dps of the stalker.

[@MrCreed145]

@@arankoka I'm guessing a bunch of your message is missing? A stalker has double the health, armor, and can blink....and is biological so it can be sniped. The dps isn't the problem. They have less than 100hp and no armor. They melt to everything and are expensive. Too hard to trade with them and any micro slips ups are too expensive so no one makes them. They die to mines, tanks, storm, banes, colossi instantly. A goon can take like 4-5 swipes from a colossi. . Goon is more comparable to a roach than a hydra. Not to mention because a goon has shields half its health naturally heals when out of combat.

Once the upgrade has been completed, no. If it's still being researched and you don't cancel it, I believe you lose 75% of the resources for the research. This doesn't apply to units being made, just research. I believe you get 100% of your resources back from units being created when the building is destroyed.

[@artemirrlazaris7406]

The commitment at 23:20 is one of those hard choices of do I go all attack to the fortress or do I change the attack strat. THe problem is shoud lattack comanded the fortress.. and the entire mineral line was repairing it. if you see uncountable repair, or I call it 1/3 of the fortress covered in scvs, its repair rate is like 150 health a second. So she should of recgonized this and used her army to target the free targets taht wont be repaired, IE scvs, for eco damage, and the tanks, instead she focused the fortress and the cost of the battle reports a bit misleading since it doens't add in the cost of the repair damage during fights, whihc would be a cool function. TO see healing/recovery report of units, ignoring zerg natural regeneration, since that owuld over inundate the report. Nonetheless. she could of crushed better target teh scvs by manually selecting the broods ot attack move into the scvs, and use hte hydras to move left, the problme is the air covers the ground for us, which has never been addressed in starcraft which cna create selection layering problems and can be used as a a strat... after about 3 seconds and the scv pull she shoudl of changed over, the brood loords did a great attack, alterantive she could of did hte intiital attack and then retreated, she was there awhile... been nice ot see 20- 30 zerglings come up around the back line... other than that I liked most of hte engagements. The fortress isn't that valuable if you can't kill it,i ts highly valuable for terran to keep alive, for money, reasons, but often a supported fortress with unlimtied moeny to repair can win, fungal on teh scvs would of really helped and itsa kind of a interesting strat. SO knowing how humans react, she oculd of planend further ahead. So I would of done the same attack and knowing that hte fortress woudl be reapired, fungal the scvs, as soo as they cluster to repair, and then do it a couple times, lol but..
