Forums - PC - Starcraft II Battle Report III

The micro in that game was just plain crazy, and this is (imo) the best match so fair, while David had more control throughout the game, the advantage swung back and forth several time and the outcome was still not certain till the very end.

I cannot wait for this game, and while I could never dream of achieving even one tenth of these players' skills, I can picture myself still playing this game 10 year down the line.

insane. they need to hurry up with this game



Owner of all consoles cept DS.....Currently in love with prototype!

There still needs some work to be done as far as balancing. From what I have seen poking around, the zerg really have nothing to counter air except hydralisks. That isnt going to to much against a few battlecruisers especially with new abilities that destroy ground forces. I know they wouldnt over look anything that massive. Right?



Yes I am a fan of the Playstation 3, but I am an even bigger fan of intelligent and rational dialog. (If you are up for an intelligent exchange of ideas, you are more than welcome to add me as a friend)

 

PLAYSTATION®3 is the future......NOW.......B_E_L_I_E_V_E

We haven't even seen one Zerg player build air units yet... do the Zerg still have the scourge unit?

I had a feeling they havent finished all the units for zerg but at the same time its hard to have a fair battle report without all the units to back them up (zerg are my favorite so I have been paying close attention). from all the information I have been able to gather from battle reports, the website and the official starcraft development forum/blog. there hasnt been any mention of scourages. The gaurdian is back which has new ability which I like. I would really like there to be something that evens the score for zerg. Especially now since the protoss have the mother ship.

Still not a new match posted?

I loved watching that third match, even though I dont like Starcraft.

Watching RTS games is great passive entertainment, and the best, most exciting and most viewer-friendly genre when watching online gaming.

Take into account that new abilities are still being implimented and tweaked on a daily basis. For example the Terran's detector (warhawk??) was a relatively new unit and one of it's ability (hunter seeker missile or something) was only introduce a week before the second battle report. There are certainly chances that new unit and/or ability are being inputed into the game as the battlereport progress.

That Protoss unit with the shields was just introduced right before the 3rd battle report.

Where can I watch exciting online battles like this? Not just for Starcraft II but for any RTS games.

I used to watch many AoE II matches but that was almost a decade ago.

Jon747 posts all (or the most prevalent) professional Korean games broadcasted, including Starcraft and will probably do SCII when it comes.

VioleTAK is now a 'hub' for a group of English commentators who do so over SC games, the account is used mostly for dual/group commentaries.  You can find links to their individual YT accounts on that page.
