Support NeoGAF

On a small map overrun with creep and with a heavy economic advantage...sure.

Yeah the emotion came over me, they basically just cleaned up the leftovers.

 

[TheExodu5]

Damn, there really are a lot of Ottawa peeps here! Just so you know, I help to run a gaming meetup and will be doing a post-SC2 launch gathering.

Damn man. Sounds awesome, but sadly I have work this week (just graduated so I'm working full time at the CRA now).

I should join the group and meet up sometime though.

Did anyone else who purchased the game on Gamestop.com just have their credit card/debit cards charged?

 

[watervengeance]

Need good stalker support for collosi, zealots much better for tanking since they cost no gas + warp in templar with 10 warpgates + insta storm

You need to toss in your army when you are maxed and your larva are built up and you have map advantage.

I was referring to how Idra seemingly always loses to Collosus. :lol

Probably just verifying funds, you'll have it back tomorrow.

 

[watervengeance]

This is NR15 isn't it?

I have the charge pending in my account.

 

[Milabrega]

This game is over. 5 base vs 3 base.

 

[LaneDS]

Man, it burned watching HuK lose that many Colossi without that thermal lance upgrade. No way that was intentional on his part, right?

 

[watervengeance]

Huk is embarrassing to watch.

 

[axiomnightmare]

Good win by Idra.

 

[LaneDS]

Ultralisk victory round 2. Crazy.

Can't believe HuK lasted as long as he did that round with some of the mistakes he made.

 

[Frustrated_me]

Phew! Another close victory!

Idra kinda getting me nervous with the late game out of nowhere units...

edit: wow zerg winning...

 

[Hazaro]

:lol
Need good forcefields too.

Would have liked to see some nydus that game.

 

[watervengeance]

Wow, Idra and his last minute reinforcements...

 

[Won]

Nothing Huk did in this game made any sense......

 

[-Pyromaniac-]

This is my first time seeing a zerg player win (I've only seen a handful of matches) but I feel like it wasn't indicative of how a zerg commander CAN win. I mean he really didn't do much, army got decimated, got 2 ultras and a bunch of lings and that pretty much did it as he built a few more to add onto that.

Huk must have not played well. I'm no super competitive player so maybe I'm wrong.

 

[watervengeance]

I would like to see some Ultralisks drops. Just one or two Ultras behind the army would've been devastating.

It's more what you didn't see happening. (Idra being a master of when to make drones or make units and keeping his upgrade up while planning to use Ultra/ling (He got melee first).

Here's an interview with HuK.

[MrCompletely]

wow, 7098 viewers on Day9's cast. He's got a nice little community building up for himself and it looks like he's already making some revenue with it with all the Razer plugs.

 

[LaneDS]

Stream dead, sadness ensues.

Edit- And we're back!

+ youtube views in the thousands...

Stream down?

ah ustream how I missed you, was doing great though

Ahh I see, I knew seemed too non-complicated to be true. I've much to learn about zerg.

Idra is a great player, but not very interesting to watch for the most part.

 

[Won]

Now that's an interesting PvZ. :lol

 

[watervengeance]

*facepalm*

 

[Vigilant Walrus]

I have still never played SC1.. Sigh.. How I wish they would release some mega high resolution patch to make it easier on the eyes. goddam.

 

[axiomnightmare]

Crazy game by WhiteRa!

 

[Frustrated_me]

lol @ whitera win... Unreal.

 

[Yoshichan]

SC1 is still beautiful and don't tell me it's nostalgia. Played and completed both original and Brood War just a month ago, looks great.

 

[ZealousD]

Lol cannons into carrier. Sounds like a bronze player build. Ridiculous match. :lol

 

[watervengeance]

Dimaga should've just expanded after he expanded a baneling on WhiteRa's mineral line. Can't believe he continued to mass Banelings even after seeing that WhiteRa was going for Void Rays.

 

[BananaBomb]

So what's the deal with this game's DEMO? Are we getting one? Blizzard demos are the best. I loved sc1's demo so much.

 

[LaneDS]

I won't tell you it's nostalgia, but I will hint heavily that you're wrong!

I love SC1, but it's an ugly, ugly game at this point. It hasn't aged well on both a 2D and 3D level (the CG, portraits).

Also, nice win by WhiteRa. As usual.

 

[RavenFox]

Solid Zerg in the house

 

[Narag]

SC1 is still beautiful and don't tell me it's nostalgia. Played and completed both original and Brood War just a month ago, looks great.

Been playing it stretched out currently and it looks fine as always to me despite the improper presentation.

For the cutscenes, briefings, and portraits, that's a given. To this day, I cannot fully make out how Kerrigan is supposed to look in her portrait. 2D I don't think has aged so poorly.

 

[LaneDS]

No word on a demo yet. I'd imagine much later we will. But Blizzard has no need for a demo, it'll sell a bajillion (technical term) copies no matter what they do.

 

[~Kinggi~]

holy shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit Zealous awesome job on those youtube walkthrough videos. I just watched the first 14 all queued up in a row. I never played the first Starcraft but damn the story and voice acting is fantastic.

Makes the possibility of seeing the story continue in HD graphics with awesome cg suddenly awesome. Although i will say one of the cool things about watching SC 1 was how it switched sides between the races to get different perspectives. The fact that the first game is Terran only kinda sounds like a real bummer, since i found them to be the least interesting, even though they have comedic value.

Ill watch the rest of the videos tomorrow.

 

[Yoshichan]

I know that mods only made SC1 look uglier!

It's true that looking at Kerrigan's portrait in Starcraft 1, she looks nothing like in Starcraft 2.

Then again, i don't recognize Raynor either. :lol

 

[LaneDS]

Damn, baneling bust actually paid off there.

 

[axiomnightmare]

Nice comeback by Dimaga

 

[Kunan]

holy crap that bust was insane! I thought Whitera had it for sure then suddenly everything detonated and the lings poured in

 

[Cipherr]

Man the stream is shit for me, hopping all over the place and I have a crap ton of available bandwidth

 

[watervengeance]

Pretty weak games

 

[RavenFox]

Probably just verifying funds, you'll have it back tomorrow.

Actually he won't. Its gone towards the game. This is what they do.

 

[Frustrated_me]

Where is Whitra and his trademark quick chrono boosted void rays?

 

[Frustrated_me]

ZealousD whats your youtube channel?
