StarCraft 2 -035 Forum vs Crota TvT on Blistering Sands

[Advenger22]

Reapers are great =D, but not as effective in higher level gaming. (but there's always exceptions :P) Excellent micro btw, must have been a placement match.

[koolkyul]

u sound like kev jumba...

[s031720]

I think you can attack a SCV that is hiding due to building with attack-move. AI-prio is to attack workers, so that should work.

[loonynet]

what software are you using ?

fraps ? , xfire ? , CamStudio ?

i am trying to make video for WoW and i want to know what are useing cuz sound and video is great

plz anser tnx

[samson915067]

Wow! Reapers are so strong now!

Nice play Crota! Keep going!

[gamebouille]

Why don't you show us the scoreboard at the end ? Is it really that ugly ?

[MultiplayerMatrix]

nice match, the supply lock delaying the first banshee pretty much turned it. I'm sure forum was having a wtf moment there ;)

[TheAwsomeSpammer]

can mules mine gas or can they only carry minerals?

[frostyandy2k]

Very nice Crota ! Keep up the good work :)

[DeviantProtagonist]

Great use of Reaper harassment. The missile turrets were a good call as well.

[EpicfetusSC2]

There were a few points early on where you could have destroyed his barracks and/or his starport which would have secured an earlier win. But this was still an interesting game overall. :)

[Darahcos]

Some nice Reaper harassment at the start lol.

[flatronl1915SLG]

great play crota i always wanted to see this usage of reapers,not just one suicidal rush for the scvs

[JonathanW1991]

Once durring a 2v2, my team mate turned on me after we one and took the victory for himself... made me SO mad... I hate fakers...

[MrInocence]

Crota I hope you read this. When fighting a terran, why do you always stop an attack on a building when it's on fire? It takes only a second more to kill the building officially. Also, especially with supply depots, you want to supply lock him ASAP. A burning supply depot is still enough to supply a couple units. I saw in one of your earlier replays, I remember that you stopped attacking a barraks with your reapers, and that resulted in allowing him to pop out another marine.

[TheLiquidPepper]

Best Reaper harass I've seen. ;)

[ZomgZomg007]

lol...fake gg -.-

[thegoddescomposer]

how can u watch some replays with u friends ?

[acousticems]

@thegoddescomposer You can't. Atleast not yet.

[thegoddescomposer]

@acousticems k thanks for the info

[USSgordon]

... you did great with the early reaper harass...

i have only two critques (bronze level zerg)

when you saw the starport being made you should have immeditly built a E-bay and marines to stop the incoming banshees

2nd you overcomminted to the reaper harass after your first 4 reapers you should have gone back to macroing up and winning the game in the midgame.

[SpykePorcupine]

If I have my priorities correct, SCV is before building. Which means if you attack-click the ground near the building you should have been able to kill the SCV building the rax.

[h0rnyn1ppl3s]

"taking a look at this stage in the game" lol, two of his catchphrases in one :P

[GoldenZealot21]

TBH, you're a pretty decent player. Only critique I could find was really not being prepared for those Banshees until it was too late, but I can imagine few players would have been anyways. Nice game and nice commenting.

[InfiniteRagnarok]

You gotta say "terrible terrible damage" again man!

[whyohwhynousername]

Great game, Reaper Harass was very effective. Now people might use them more often, rather than a sea of marauders.

[Covrig4132]

i love reapers

[ricefarmer]

finally reapers are bad ass, now blizzard needs to do something about the BC... bring back all those bad ass powers they had... only yamato is lame!

[battlegood]

No more Lock-Down on Ghost what happen to Lock-Down ability ?

[GamerIsI]

@battlegood Replaced with something like the EMP Shockwave. Fires like this huge blast that takes out shields and i think energy.

[battlegood]

@GamerIsI then which units got Lock-Down ability ? i mean Lock-Down ability was the only reason i play Terran in SC:BW =D

[LameoDuelist]

nobody. it's gone.

[battlegood]

@LameoDuelist oh really? but in campaign, there will be original units that mean Lock-Down ability will be back. =D

[LameoDuelist]

@battlegood: maybe. the only original units though for terran that I can remember are the firebat and medic. i don't think they'll bring back past VERSIONS of different units, in this case the ghost that had lockdown.

we'll see but I REALLY doubt that lockdown will be in the game.

[GamerIsI]

@battlegood Erh, there is a unit in campaign that has it. I forgot which one though.

But none in the multiplayer version.

[GolemRising]

Can you store SCVs in an orbital command? If so, why didnt you hide some of them in there?

[SuperHeroR]

Seeing you comment on your strategy at work is probably the best. I enjoy your well thought out plans of action when you do your games. Your commentaries on pro-level games are great, too. So, keep up the good work Crota.

[tbank51]

YOU VIDEO ARE ADDITION!

[thetubeaccount]

yeah def more edutaining than some of those guys who do the lamest most tamest of yawn fest strategies

[RSX250]

Your a really strong player, I would like to see you challenge HD Starcraft or Husky Starcraft to a 1v1 :)

[xBiocide]

crota, he was waiting for u to say gg, lol. He said it again because I guess he thought you missed it, lol.

[Majin35]

FINALLY Thankyou crota for using reapers properly, soooo many ppl out say reapers are only good for attacking the mineral lines, but as u have shown they own marines, they buildings and they are quite a good unit. I also suspect reapers to be good for defense as you can use them to flank attacking armies easily with the wall jump ability.

[BurningIke]

One thing to point out - at first Forum was supply blocked while trying to build that banshee, but as you killed the SCVs, that probably reduced Forum's supply used enough to get the banshee out. Is it always a good idea to kill off the harvesters, especially if they're chasing you around instead of harvesting? You might have been able to take out a few more supply depots or the starport before the SCVs could have killed your reapers, and that might have prevented the banshee finishing.

[BlackoutxDoWx]

lol little fail with those marines. good match though. love that reaper harrasment very nice supply block aswell.

[leb001]

I love this change. Not only makes marauders not soo OP at the begining, but makes reapers way more useful ^^. Killing two birds with a stone

[karrattiguy2]

is the maruder shell now an upgrade?

[nourse]

@karrattiguy2 yes

[empathe]

@karrattiguy2 Yeah, it's an upgrade on tech lab now

[gabocrbll]

nice reaper job, but forum did well with those banshee, i dont get why he said gg... BUT crota won!! :)

[efilnow]

yer opponent reacted very accordingly, very nice video!

[StardreamerPF]

Awesome as always, Crota. Thanks and keep the great job up -]

[thevladnr1]

please ultralisk

[co2linable]

Nice game, good reaper rush. I like it.

[moneki]

Crota can you upload some more casts of you playing Zerg plz.

[FrancekPirosrancek]

I like your gameplays more then the previous games...

[Stripe15]

nice replay man. I like to see you win rather than lose.

[cordawg17]

Good job going after the SD's instead of trying to back door more SCV's .  never thought of supply locking the opponet. but i do now.

[Viddax]

crota's awesome

[Sebbabix]

I enjoy watching your replays as well as the pro games so it's good to have a mix. I also like your playstyle, you seem to mix things up nicely and try to use a wide array of units and abilities as opposed to the same ol same ol.

[TigerPantsRocks]

Yes, I like to see you play Crota. :)

[philip2111]

I agree with mormatus

[mormatus]

Yes, your personal replays commented by you are more interesting, IMO.. because you're underlining and properly describing the real way of thinking of at least one of two players :-)

So, yeah, please continue with more your own replays, I vote for that

[everythinguluv]

@mormatus yup, lot better i agree

[mansonfollower15]

wait maraduars lost there cuncusion shells???

terrans really need an upgrade so theyll stop using marine rush and reaper

[smokietehbear]

@mansonfollower15 lmfao, before the patch everybody agreed that terrans needed to be nerfed because of MMM or even just Marauders by themselves in early game pushes. So as soon as the marauders get nerfed, people start QQing. Here's a tip: try learning other strategies. And no, they didn't "lose" their concussive shells, they just require an upgrade now.

[mansonfollower15]

@smokietehbear im not saying i use the strategie..im saying is that terrans need be changed so they USE OTHER ONES whether it means nerfed or upgraded

please fully read comment before replying

[smokietehbear]

@mansonfollower15 Well, I just reread your post and honestly it was completely incoherent.

I answered your question where you spammed 3 question marks and I'm saying that terran mech is getting buff after buff in successive patches.

Maybe you shouldn't have told me to read fully because now I think your comment wasn't even worth replying to.

[mansonfollower15]

@smokietehbear well thats the issue with typing instead of talking i try to type the minimal and it is incoherent and usually doesnt make sense to anyone but me XD the reread thing wasnt an insult merely attempt to understand better thing but srry =p XD

[dune22]

That was a great game! Really entertaining seeing how gameplay has changed since patch 8.

[verzauberung]

your imba :D

[FoldingZebra]

Crota - What league are you in?

[danielwalter88]

Nice work with those reapers :D

[H4r4ld0]

Well played and nice micro especially in the beginning. Good Job.

[butteryassphresh]

go crota go!

[ReNovaaaa]

nice play
