StarCraft II officially announced

[SeanDMan]

This stream was megumixbear, who is hanging with day9 on her stream. At 1:09:00, she sets up a 2v2 and puts day9 and Cella on a team together and hillarity ensues. Cella cheeses with a proxy void ray, and their opponent cheese day9 with cloaked banshees. Cella decides to go Mothership rush because "it's mommys day!", and when day9 is getting his mineral line savaged by Banshees, Cella tells him "my mother is coming! My mother is coming!", which eventually leads to day9 laughing so hard he has to pause the stream. The other Protoss player also goes Mothership, no doubt out of the same logic, and eventually one Mothership vortexes the other.

Cella's broken english and James Bond villian accent are adorable as well.

I have a present for you.

[Herr Matzat]

That amussed me, not as much as the episode you posted, but still.

[KevinStorm]

That amussed me, not as much as the episode you posted, but still.

Why would anyone ever do that ever?

[Herr Matzat]

Because it can work and people are suckers for fast n easy wins... i had that happen to me more than once wen the game was new and i was still in bronze. I even saw it used in pro games every million years or two.

[SeanDMan]

Worker rushes tend to be incredibly effective because the opponent will usually badly overreact and commit his entire mining force to force firing a single worker. If you in the meantime have workers mining you can take a huge economic lead.

So is any of you following blizcon? The changes seem amazing, even if it seems like protos is getting a pritty harsh buff as it seems.

[SeanDMan]

Amazing.

[SeanDMan]

That, coincidentally, led me to this:

Holy fuck Ultras are so good. That Zerg player looked dead.

[Herr Matzat]

Aaaaaah, the fire to blaze build

[SeanDMan]

The guy on the left: :0

[Herr Matzat]

MVP always looks like that. Still awesome, the whole match was great.

[Herr Matzat]

1.5 is up. I suggest you to download it now because it takes a long ass time. The system states 15-60 Minutes, but if your internet is slow you also have to take care of a 1.4 gig download and a 300mb download right after.

[SeanDMan]

20:30. Zerg Mothership!
