      @@MisterZealot You're right. The Aliens quote is a combination of two separate phrases.

I think "in the pipe" is from "in the pipeline," meaning that something is under way or about to be completed.

    Man, Byun had a couple hard games since coming back from his military service but for the past couple months, he's been showing some really nice StarCraft! It feels like he relies less on overwhelmingly overpowered superhuman micro and now adds a side dish of strategy and tactical positioning and maneuvering to his play style. Of course, to get where he is, he already did have those but he's really improved on them.
    Micro Jackson was really nice to watch but General ByuN is a marvel to witness.

    From a programmer's perspective: the flames are particles, that means the slower the reaper goes, the less the particles travel until they fade out. So I presume it's just a visual side effect.

    I would wish for 2 balance changes for Protoss:
    1) Shield Batteries should start with no/less Energy when build outside the Nexus range (to stop the cheese on the ladder)
    2) The speed upgrades for the Observer and the Warp Prism should be merged into a single one (with maybe slightly higher cost and/or build time)
    Okay, and maybe reduce the Zealot Charge cooldown a little.

  • @johnnyray9107
    @johnnyray9107 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Things would still float upwards at 2000 atmospheric pressure, I assume. Buoyancy is basically water pushing you upward because the water you displace is heavier than you. As you go deeper the water is denser and.. something about the water above you applying more pressure.
    In any event if you float in water at the surface, you probably float underneath.

    • @SomeGuy-ty7kr
      @SomeGuy-ty7kr 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      I think if all the air gets crushed out of you by the pressure you wouldn't float any more. Even the air might get absorbed by the surrounding water (although I'm not sure how water pressure affects the absorption of gases).

    I don't know the lore behind the slowing zones, but if these zones would decrease light speed without the need of high gravity, it would appear like they are slowing down from an outside perspective (rtheory of relativity) but the required thrust and everything else would stay the same.

    Just curious, how do you get the tab on how many excat units that died. You know, so i can see how many queens, marines, zerglings etc have gone down.
    On another note, great cast as always lowko !

    I still am faithful to Lowko. The only SC caster for me!
