I can't find the motivation to play this anymore t_t

I'm looking forward to the new season/maps but I really just wish they'd buff mech somewhat. It's really annoying never getting to see any of the good terran players actually play it because it's so bad.

CHOBBBRRRAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!

If they threw in the Plott brothers and Smix, this would be the greatest caster/host lineup of all time... OF ALL TIME!

Fuck, and people were shouting "zerg op" in the first weeks of this...cant believe it. WCS2 Grand finals: 2 zerg, 8 PROTOSS (oh, poor protosses, they are weak!) and 6 terrans.

Damn it.

Their race is clearly op, so why aren't they winnining? The only thing that makes sense is that zerg players must be dumber.

Was bored so I decided to try 6 pooling AI on harder. I sucked at it but eventually killed him from never letting him get a 2nd base.

The reason why there's so few zergs is because there's very few actually good zerg players. Most of them got to the top and stayed there due to the end of WoL but now they're old defend into broodlords thing doesn't work as well they have no idea how to play. There are some good zerg players who didn't make it, but due to the sheer lack of good zerg players and a huge over-representation of them over the past 5 or so seasons a lot of them were knocked out in mirrors in the Ro32.

This would be the perfect irony if you were a terran player.

 

[Boken]

Widow mines take so much skill to use
thats why there arent that many terrans either

 

[Yoshichan]

widow mines are still harder to use than all protoss units combined

Got demolished.

Loved every second of it.

Why can't Blizzard make good games anymore?

Cause SCII HOTS's gameplay feels better than BW's does. Deal with it.

you just bury..whats hard to understand

Wrong.

Sounds 50x worse too.

 

[V_Arnold]

Wrong. Take away the power of nostalgia, and you will see it too.

Edit: We can debate style, skill ceiling or even mechanics. But the FEEL of the gameplay? Hands down, SCII is superior.

i like this man

 

[EscapingJail]

I just called in on SOTG sick.

Genna retires from Axiom...wat.

I guess Take is upset with her posting private conversations after pulling team from ATC and that finally put her over the edge to quit?

 

[Aaron]

SC2 scene just continuing its slow collapse. I blame widow mines.

I'll be surprised if Axiom lives beyond the end of the year. I can't imagine TB has time to manage the team in addition to everything else he does. I suppose it's possible that they get someone else to lead/manage in a few months.

 

[Corran Horn]

I hope TB doesnt run it. His mood swings would kill the team.


JP must hate sc or something cuz he doesnt look interested as fuck.

 

[Wunder]

RIP SC2

V Arnold, you're wrooooooooong!

Uh, I did? Yesterday, the entire day?

 

[Sibylus]

Randomly tuned into state of the game and now I'm crying. What the hell, JP.

 

[Corran Horn]

JP was planning on this being last SotG but probably will keep the show going, just not weekly.

Wait, what happened? Link?

The community is really small now and it's hard to find players at your own skill level. That plus one of the aspects i enjoy about a game like this is being able to watch it on a pro level as well which is now essentially non existent in BW.

Don't get me wrong i'm a massive SC2 fan but if BW were to become big again i would take it any day of the week.

 

[Yoshichan]

Test map is up

Go get free wins with vipers now

 

[Wunder]

That SOTG was kind of heart warming. Tyler's Courage story was great.

 

[Yoshichan]

I really want to watch it
