Starcraft 2 thread: Still around, somehow.

World as Myth

nope!

Franko

wanna let jim raynor touch my body

stimtokolos

Whoever did that voice did a great job getting it right then.

World as Myth

no that's the actual dude, but neville didn't orchestrate it

this was done by a guy who runs a podcast who interviewed me, and the "well butter my biscuit" thing is something I did in an episode of my show and he had me do it during his interview and became a running joke with us

so now he has this voice acting podcast and he interviewed robert clotworthy and had him do a bunch of these promo spots as a gift to me

hilarious

World as Myth

maybe you had to be there

BahamutZERO

I think it's awesome!

stimtokolos

That's pretty cool.

By a bunch do you mean there are more of these? Are you hiding them until you release later episodes of your show?

redhead

into vlc for high quality streaming action

Dubh

edit: wait, it is I who is the tard

redhead

it shouldn't be clickable, but you should be able to paste it into vlc

to watch it otherwise i think you can just go to gomtv, but i'm, not sure trying to watch and post at the same time, this shit is intense

Dubh

too big for me to paste, me thinks

but I've never used vlc before

Franko

redhead added a couple spaces mid url there

take those out and it works in VLC fine

Dubh

alright, it's working now!

thank you!

Franko

is marine + scv all in just an insta win for terran everytime or whut?

Franko

soon people are gonna realize how broken marines are

Dubh

that's some straight-up cock strategy with the marines, there

Franko

lol i love questions from poopfeast

redhead

POOPFEAST420 RETURNS

Franko

its extra funny because in SotG preshow today they were asking each other about funny usernames and questions they had to read, and poopfeast kept coming up

stimtokolos

The marine SCV rush is a pain in the arse to stop but it isn't an autowin for the terran.
Huge fucking pain though.

The thing I'm least comfortable with defending it is how many different timings they can choose to move out with it. But you have to keep making sure you know whether it is or isn't coming.

redhead

i love fruitdealer

Franko

damn this lost temple pvz is so great

Franko

watching

fruitdealer

We would like to thank everyone for their participation thus far in the first StarCraft 2 public test. We’re in the process of temporarily taking down the PTR in order to apply changes based on your feedback and testing.

Some of the changes we’re working on implementing:

# Bunker build time reduction removed as previously noted

# Fungal Growth’s terrestrial limitation has been removed and the ability once again affects air units

# It will once again be possible to hold down a key to repeat a hotkey command

This down time is expected to start tomorrow at noon, 12:01 p.m. PST and last for approximately 2-3 days. Keep an eye on this forum for updates on when you can rejoin the Public Test Region and begin testing the newest changes.

Thanks for your help!

Hmm, the fungal change seemed like the one with the clearest reason. Was it too depowering for zerg to not people to catch medivacs along with infantry blobs or something?

Franko

whats the link for watching gsl tonight?

anyone got a good one?

Beef Avenger

terrestrial limitation sure is wordy

Franko, they stream the games live for free. Just get gomplayer (it's basically vlc), set up an account at http://www.gomtv.net/ and hit the go live button when it goes green (use the test server)

It pretty much pidgeon holes the small number of zergs who were using infestors to stop drops in.
Also makes it impossible to run down pheonixes ever.

Mr Fuzzbutt

Also it would make stopping mutas way harder without getting mutas of your own.

TheStig

they probably figured the phoenix buff was enough of a buff in the area where fungal was too strong

Franko

thanks beefs, im excited for some gsl and for next week when i can start playing starcraft again

TheStig

I think jinro is playing tonight in the round of 8 if you can stay up another 2 hours.

His 1st game from the round of 16 is required viewing:

Lordaen

So very tempted to stay up for that.

stimtokolos

Kpop likely to start in 10.
The main show in 20 and games 10-15 after that.

I'd expect to have to wait maybe another hour for Jinro after that depending on the length of the earlier set. Unless FoxeR rolls over this guy.

FirmSkater

I played the trial for this game that my friends got me, and I am going to buy this game now because it is rad.

Give me all the good tricks for owning my friends at this game.

Beef Avenger

build mans

building enough mans will get you within the top 15 percentile, regardless of which mans you're building
