I'll be honest, this was pretty interesting to watch. I've been getting back into the RTS genera with Red Alert 2 lately (never got into Starcraft).
I wouldn't mind seeing more videos like this.

I tend to spawn Zerglings if I have extra minerals but not Vespene, because there's no reason NOT to have them (and they're handy for dealing with Immortals), and they're absolutely lethal when fully upgraded.nutgear said:No baneling or hydralisk...... zerglings not that powerful anymore.. colossus army could of been attack by air units for they are tall enough to be shot by air to air and they cant attack air
The trouble was in that match, my vespene was tied up making Mutas, which were over trying to defend Jordan from the Banshees.
Sounds like you guys had some fun! I'm a bit jealous, can't wait to get my hands on this one... It was nice to see some game footage with, well, "non-professionals".
By the way, "glitches"? "luck"? Those are pretty lame excuses!
Ooh, and look at that, "tremendous damage to the zerglings"! *chuckles*

Yeah, its hard to say what to do. when its 2v2 and your limited on your intel. You did good man for being harassed all game long.John Funk said:I tend to spawn Zerglings if I have extra minerals but not Vespene, because there's no reason NOT to have them (and they're handy for dealing with Immortals), and they're absolutely lethal when fully upgraded.nutgear said:No baneling or hydralisk...

I've never really learned the trick to harassment. It's one of those past-basic tactics I haven't really tried to practice given I'm still figuring out how to get a basic base set up in minimal time. It's so effective when you have it and you really notice the impact when it's all going one way.
Its interesting in how battlefield maneuvers and tactics, with the new terrain obstacles and the units that can bypass them, have drastically changed. Even a few units can prove game changing with some well-placed surgical strikes.
Much as i hate to go with the herd, yeah good stuff and the best us poor betaless schmucks can do at the moment
Wow, that was really cool to see. The Battle Reports are one thing, since those guys are the professionals, doing what they're paid to do. Watching you guys and your Terrible, Terrible Damage[sup]Tm[/sup] was pretty fun.
Watching that horde of colossi wreak havoc was absolutely joyful. Reminds me of Watching a swarm of carriers and scouts eat the map in SC1.
