StarCraft 2: The Command Center DISAPPEARED?! (Viewer Games)

Two viewer games of StarCraft 2. The first one is a very cringy Terran versus Protoss between two players in Silver/Bronze League. The second is a Terran versus Protoss in Platinum League that starts off with both players cheesing each other.

[@DanStaal]

Vikings make sense: He knew Alt would make an air unit to hunt the other base (since he wasn't hunting it on land), so Neil wanted to be able to handle an air army. (Which worked - he took out the Voidrays pretty quickly.) Then he just didn't need to think about it to make more - they're fast, they were killing everything, no need to make anything else.

Moral lesson: You need to show unconditional respect to all your enemies. Because the moment you feel their level is low, they attack you with the horrifying fangs they had hidden.

Imagine Joona and Clem duking it out when one says "I'm gonna grab a beer", the other answers "ok I'm gonna make coffee then", and they both go afk, letting the game run in the background. That would be wholesome.

Up to about diamond, there's a lot of fuckery. Past that, people are too focused on winning and start mimicking pro build as much as possible.

[@temushin]

You're going to see some crazy sh*t... I think it actually gets worse in silver/gold than it is in bronze. One thing I've noticed is that if someone is chatty, they're almost definitely trying to distract you from something, and if someone says there's an 'emergency' and they're 'going afk', but not surrendering, they're actually trying to max out on carriers.

Terran just needs vikings and cyclones to shut this cheese down completely, real good protoss dont go for cheese a lot. Go watch some professional games (exclude has if you dont like it) instead of talking bad about protoss strats man.

That was just painful. Doesn’t matter if you think you know where your opponent is, vision is important! A single unit, one you’re not using, sent around the map can save you from cheese, or something game-ending. Don’t have to check often. Check if you think your opponent is cornered. Check if nothing has happened in a bit. Check if your opponent doesn’t gg, etc etc I don’t play versus, I don’t like SC2’s PvP (or most PvP in general) but even I know that vision is super important.
