Starcraft Casual Video Report - Vidrep 44 - Heart Attack Zerg 1/2

It doesn't quite matter at what level of play a ZvZ takes place, it is always a matchup that will not forgive the smallest of mistakes. In difficulty it reigns supreme throughout the entire skill curve. It is something embedded deep within the core of the game, Zerg vs Zerg WILL have some level of excitement in it. And I do believe this quite proves it to be true.
Also: yes there is some lag in the game, I'm going to fish out whatever creatures dwell within my recording system (this was recorded together with rep 43 so it's a wonder it's still watchable - but wierd).

What the fuck is wrong with your black colours in the pits on the map?

Oh well, nice to see some more greth.

It's been like that for the last few reps actually, It's because I'm using camtasia to record full screen. It went fine the first few times, but now it seems to corrupt more and more.

I have a dual quad core mac pro, so no - it aint the computer. But it might be that I'm still running vista on the MS side. I just don't have the time to clean out my system just yet.

creep colonies that have less than 100 hp when they complete the sunken morph, spawn with exactly 2 hp.

Firebathero once used the creep colony trick against Savior (i think it was him) once. He damaged a morphing sunken colony enough so when it finished and popped it KILLED ITSELF MWAHAHAHAHAHAH

It was played for the first time in HANFost Sen Game MSL, in early 2004.

It is the map on which the macro oriented style was invented, on which Oov shined so brilliantly.

The second version, Luna the Final came out in 2005.

2004? You sure?

[BiffTheUnderstudy]

Luna is like 6 years old, dude...

[baszar24]

creep colony has 400 hp and a sunken has 300hp

creep colony morfing and having 30hp/400hp will be complited as a sunken with 1/300hp . It doesent die it was killed by the drone.

[ho33es]

luna is old? can't be more than 2-3 years old.

I was on bnet around the time before "pro gamer" maps were a standard. Ah, the ladder system...was so awesome.

[almightyhydra]

@wswordsmen Just tested it. It is 1 hp but one more hp almost immediately regenerates. This is probably because the countdown on the regeneration has run out but the building isn't allowed to regen while morphing into a sunken colony.

[procrobat]

nevermind

[procrobat]

its actually a creep colony has 400 hp and a sunkern has 300hp so if the creep morphs into a sunkern it will die if it has 100 or less hp (ps I love your vids!!)

[reketkun]

Hi Greth! I still love your videos =)

If I remember correctly, I sent you this less than half a year ago? So Its really awesome that you are so quick to respond =)

Also...you must learn about your sunkens =D

[GigaBoost]

Yeah, okay. Well... it's still watcheable, your commentary excuses a bit of low quality.
