    This reminds me of that day, when I was working at Subway, my mate had called in sick so I was there, all on my own. Everything was fine, until a whole soccer team came and ordered 24 foot longs, in the middle of the frenzy my girlfriend called to tell me she was pregnant. I went to the back to cry a little, and then when I was wiping my tears I remembered I had chilli in my hands. I called the manager and told him I was done, when I got home, I was feeling a little better, but then my girlfriend called again, to tell me she was sorry, the kid wasn't mine. I was so happy I cried again.

      In turret.... there is no “n”. If you say turret as turrent, then you are saying the word wrong because you are a dumbass. Simply put.
      I’m speaking American English. Maybe its different for you because of your accent. Similar to armor and armour idk. Look up “turrent” in Urban Dictionary and it too will tell you that you are a dumbass.

      ​@@LCInfantry Aight, ya need to chill, was kidding on that one. Also on most cases h is silent after a w: white, what, when, where, why, wheel -> h is silent, so for that case you could also spell well as whell and phonetically it would still be the same. There is an exception for who, whom and perhaps there are some other cases in which the w is the silent letter but quite frankly haven't met those cases yet.
      If you're among those who pronounce what as hwhat, can't call you a dumb ass for that, it's something that some dialects, and in some accents, is still being kept ever since old/mid English regardless we are talking about US or UK. Not incorrect, just not very used anymore, not even in England.
      What it used to be written like was "hƿaet" where "hƿ" = "hw"; this case is still met today among the Scandinavian languages ("hvad" is "what" in Danish) and even some upper parts of England.
      Regardless, that is why I said there is an "n" in turret but it is silent.

      Actually, I think a big part of what lost Maru the game other than the brain dead mistake at the end, was sinking too much resources into those turrets. It was smart to use them in the early mid game in small numbers to protect from the mutalisk harass and to turtle up with some static defenses in the late game particularly at important choke points and on the front line bases so the ghosts and army have a buffer to fall back into, but he went so overboard with it.
      Each of those turrets could have instead been two marines in the late game. Even just a converting a dozen of those turrets into 24 marines at the end could have given his army a big boost in firepower and a much needed shield for his ghosts to prevent the ling surround. That is really what lost him that final battle at the end where both sides were spent out. It was losing all the ghosts and their ability to snipe that doomed him.
      But other than that. Yeah, the bronze league heroes had it right apparently. O_o

    I highly disagree with just floating your buildings to the deadspace and forget them there forever, because looking at it, while it is a mechanic for terrans when it comes down to tech swinging from reactors and mass production to advanced unit production without having to have 6000 buildings to reach the output that balances out zerg's mass building and the mobility of the protoss with pylons and warp prisms it also acts as a "fail safe" way to just draw it out/outright win if certain conditions like points are met without any compensatory ability for zergs or protoss if they were to be in the same scenario. If that is the case, allow zerg buildings to burrow but at a higher larva cooldown or protoss buildings to dewarp/unwarp/dismantle/recycle and give a partial sum back and then you might say: well, if the enemy has no anti-air, then terran draws/wins because flying buildings; if the enemy has no detection then zerg draws/wins because the buildings are burrowed, if the enemy has no resources or ability to siege the buildings while there still are units capable of defending then protoss draws/wins because they can simply dismantle their building and build the necessary units to win or not.
    At that point, Scarlett was deserving of the win, regardless of Maru forgetting or not that he can just float his buildings to the deadspace and then take a toilet break while leaving the game running out of time do it's own thing. Fly to rearrange on the map ? Sure. Fly to win in impossible scenarios ? Don't really think so. That would imply you just have to have 2 AA units tucked away in the corner of the map hoping that the time to use them never comes become god damned terran have guess what ? Flying fail safes.
    It may be just so that Maru claimed he forgot that he can float his buildings (which seems incredible given the fact that he floated his entire main base the left side 2 minutes before GGing out) only because he wouldn't want to have to resort to that thing of "hahahahha screw you biology we got thrusters !!!!!11!!1!!".

    • @lexvtd
      @lexvtd 5 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      @@yp8495 The main thing here is that those cannons and spines are not going to float away with an almost magic whisper echoing in your head "You're screwed, fam.". If you were Scarlett would you feel like: "Ah yes, that design choice has to be encountered at some point, let me make some 5 minute corruptors that I will hide away in the corner of the map, just for the perfect moment to snipe some flying objectives."
      Or like someone said in the comments below: "make them count as "dead" buildings". Or maybe even add a new state to buildings while floating: "Suspended activity." Cuz it's not like that can do anything except land/fly, if a buildings sits for more than, idk, 3 minutes ? in "Suspended activity." mode, it counts as a defeat. I mean, you're not going to look for a base for 3 minutes to land your CC. So that could get rid of this. But I do get your point.

    Floating buildings off the map is still the same as forfeiting. Its the same as admitting you cant do anything left. If something wasnt killed or destroyed within 5 minute at end game, the one making the least progress end game should be consider defeated. If they cannot make any progress such as killing the enemy army, or progressively eliminating enemy structures they must be consider defeated.
    I though Scarlett was going to lose but at the end had the clear advantage. This win belongs to Scarlett, she was undoing the enemy structures bit by bit. If the both did a "All in" Scarlett had the advantage. Maru hiding his army at his base doing nothing, is not what i consider draw-worthy. If you cant fight back you lost. If you cant defend your structures, you lost.

    The thing is, it's considered really poor sportsmanship to fly buildings away to get a draw. If it gets to that point in the match the rules state you can't do it because if you have to float buildings to force a draw out, you've lost. You shouldn't let the game get to a point where you have to resort to that BM. You could argue it's a mechanic and blah blah but this is a tournament to decide who's better. Not who can dick around to force draws by being a sore loser. Maru tipped his hat said he lost cause that's the competitive nature they have. He knew if he had to do that tactic it was his game to lose. So kudos to him. I respect that rule cause then we'd see some bush league nonsense in pro tournament games and it's not what the sport is about.

    To be fair, just looking at this game, the rule absolutely should only include landed buildings for the elimination, maybe giving terran a countdown where they can land before they lose. Like, look at his side of the map. Terrans have the most buildings out of like any race, and all you need is for one of them to survive to draw. I know the game isn't intended to get to that point so it's not a big deal 99% of the time, but it is still an aspect of the game where Terran is 100% superior to the other races with zero drawbacks, and it's a game-ending superiority at that. I still enjoy the "kill all buildings to win" rule as a matter of principle, at it adds an element of strategy to what would otherwise just be "kill ur opponents army", but not so long as floating buildings count.
