      There are definitely benefits for Char first, but the difficulty is just so much higher than Kaldir that in any challenge run scenario you almost always just default to that one.

    This is a challenge run whose challenge isn't actually possible in every situation, and when it is, it's not as challenging as it should be. I don't think there's a greater tragedy when it comes to challenge runs than that.

    Tbh the Zerg in SC2 aren't a great faction to base the campaign around if you're looking for challenges because of how they were designed within it. It feels like they tried to go the way of Age of Mythology with a fun and cool spectacle taking precedent over balance, but they forgot to make the enemy stronger for it in the way that matters the most: Giving them their own dumb crap that ultimately balances the scales overall.

    I'm wondering if in The Crucible you could push to the map edges and spawn camp with crawlers, then focus your army on the bottom entrance?

    • @DaveyGunface
      @DaveyGunface  ปีที่แล้ว +16

      Theoretically if I could take the second hatchery, sure. However spawn camping demands that you need a ton of crawlers on both sides to tank damage and finish off enemies for Corpsers to spawn in waves, and drones on standby to constantly morph in more and more crawlers whenever needed. Without that added economy it's just not doable.

    Just saying if getting the second hatch on shoot the messenger ruins the run because the game gives you a two more supply then this run is over from the start cause the game gives you 200 once the second fase starts.
    You could argue that one can be avoided but it's the same premise. The game gave you something in the level
