[anonymousppl]

Idra playing terran? Idra saying gg? WHAT

[Assaultpredator]

@anonymousppl

Terran was considered the weakest race in sc1 by the end of the decade.

[plutte000]

I have noticed that Diggity has 0 Thumbs down on almost all his videos, great job on quality and nice commentary

[HydrophobiaIX]

bleh gotta hate 14 cc

[Pacober1]

where do you go to download replays?

[Konrad111111]

:) i like the very last sound of the video ;)

[Telekenesis123]

Just a little tip here diggity, I like the sound level for these direct feeds, its nice, but during action just raise your voice a little bit so we can hear you and you game baby.

[Blueist]

From what I remember, when you change vision in the middle of a replay, it only shows what they currently see, so if he scanned that 10 seconds ago, you wouldn't see when you change the vision to just him 10 seconds later.

3000 minerals at 100 supply k?

[coolnoobb]

no gas

[llmasterllp]

what game is this?

[funmailaddy]

god, Idra is such a fag -.-

[jax1492]

well he will lose anyway to Korean players

[steamrolledboy]

he can beat them. USA FTW! he told me he beat effort and savior when i talked to him. he can do it.

[P00P00Head]

Good thing he'll be facing Stork or Jaedong...assuming he makes the finals...

[oOWeeDOo]

Wow really? he took a game of slumpvoir and Effort so now you think he can possibly have the slightest of chance to be dangerous for Stork and Jaedong in a Bo3? every other foreinger whos trying to cheese like hell got a better shot at stealing a game

[PolygonreVue]

Nice game - and good to see that you decided to do the WCG games regardless of all the issues. GG!

[DrShadowSML]

man how do you get such good quality?

[sklyrovka]

it's a replay recorded straight off his computer, so there's no reencoding involved

[monolith94]

I actually kind of like being able to hear the in-game sounds. The gentle hum of the scvs, the melodic sweep of the scanner...

[akame85]

nice that the quality is crystal clear. but the in game sound is a little loud. so can be hard to hear u when the siege tanks start firing

[CHumga]

very good commentary Diggity.

[4lm4pN]

Wow bm nerdraging insecure self-esteem issue having Idra said "gg" - I'm stunned ; d

[cterric]

whatever you are doing for video quality keep doing it. (it looks flawless)

[MultiCide]

again, its because its captured from his comp and not from a stream

he can set his own resolution when capturing from his comp instead of taking it from the stream which is obviously running on a very low resolution

[omuploii]

actually at 7:45 Nyoken had a great victory over Idra. Killed atleast twice as many troops as he lost.

[Kevin0wnz]

1 victory < 989143 victories

[mognite]

???

[Kevin0wnz]

i was saying 1 victory is not greater than the amount of victories that idra had

[RanshinDA]

Great game and great commentary as always Diggity.

You might want to turn down the volume of the game though, because when some of the action was going on it was really hard to hear what you were saying.

The marine fire was especially irritating to hear while trying to make out your voice.

[funnybananaman94]

yeah i agree, the goliath missiles also made it a bit hard to hear your voice at parts. great job though, thanks for casting :)

[Saktoth]

What do you use to record and upload? It is so crisp and clear!

[meskalin64]

Its not recorded, its a replay. Thats why they quality can be so high.

[Saktoth]

I dont mean that, ive seen replays, but this is really really good quality. Even not on HD.

[meskalin64]

Ask diggity how he encoded it.

[stewox1]

@Saktoth

I was like looking a minute if this really is Starcraft , never ever thought it looks like this omg , yeah not even HD , (but i never played the first starcraft) , anyhow i thought it had some custom hi-def mod or what.

[ddrirc]

I thought this game was going to be like 5 hours from looking at the progress bar and seeing nothing.

[Baerinho]

entertaining game

dunno if its my sounds settings, but around the 7min mark until that big fight at 6 oclock, the gaem sound was alot louder than your commentary.

As i said, might be my crappy settings :P

[dummernik]

i agree game sounds a little bit to high in this replay

[Konkaver]

so using a barracks to extend your sight range gives you 1 hex (??) of extra seige range. What if you land the barracks right next to the tanks and target fire it? will the splash do damage to those tanks?

[evildonut]

well, using a barracks allows you extra sight. That lets your siege tanks fire the full distance, since their sight range is shorter than their attack range while sieged. All else equal, assuming both siege tank positions are at max range, the one who doesnt have to send troops to the middle to scout has quite the advantage. The barracks acts as just a cheap sight advantage, since most mech builds dont use it anyways. The reason they dont land it is cause losing it = no more factories.

[FearAndRevere]

No because of the angle.the splash will hit the area nearest where your tanks fired so only units on standing beside it will get damaged

[imsoging]

the landed barracks is a non-moving target, so the tank will hit it dead on in the center of the barracks. the splash damage does not extend pass the radius of the barracks. however the splash may work if you are targetting your own smaller unit, such as a marine

[almightyhydra]

Actually the tank hits the edge of buildings (I keep killing my own units this way). But (I assume you were replying to Konkaver's comment) you are right in that the trick won't work, because you'd have to land the barracks on the far side of the tanks so that the shots hit the right side, at which point you're in range of their tanks.
