I’m late as fuck here but just gunna say look at what the campaigns did for AoE 2. They’re simple but so good that you can have people like me who only buy and play the game for the campaigns.
Happy ASL (oh this is actually the most fun group in so long you're in for a treat) Tastosis Banter : 10:45 Match 1 16:27 Match 2 38:47 Match 3 1:04:40 Match 4 1:16:21 Match 5 1:30:32
41:54 For those wondering, probes and drones have a 32 pixel range (1 "matrix"), while SCVs have only a 10 pixel range, which is shorter even than melee units like zerglings, zealots, or DTs (15 px) or ultralisks (25 px). Still, despite being as short-range as a spider mine, SCVs technically do not have a "melee attack," which is what Artosis is talking about. They count as ranged attacks, which is why they can miss uphill and under dark swarm and stuff. Very silly. That said, SCVs do have more HP than probes or drones and also have a faster attack, so they fight much better when not microed.
@@HasekuraIsuna I'm not sure, but I don't think so. They seem to use the same animation to attack and to mine, which would imply it's the same speed for all workers. That is to say, they all have a slight (effectively random) delay.
@@EebstertheGreat in this old spreadsheet I found online it lists the SCVs initial attack start-up as 2 frames, whereas the Probe and Drone has 0. Though now when I re-checked, the Corsair has 8 so I don't think it has anything to do with moving shots, which was my initial suspicion.
Oh look, another cast and group to completely destroy my sleep schedule with. Yeehaw. Edit: Oh THIS group. Ohohohoho, let's just say this group has some noteworthy surprises.
45:55 something really weird I've noticed about Gols and Valks are that if they shoot point blank their missles swirl about the target before colliding.
The projectiles for many units in SC1 have to actually reach their target before dealing damage. Projectiles move fast and are homing, so this isn't normally a problem, but in some weird cases it causes issues. Most famous being...scarabs, which have the added disadvantage of being the only non-flying projectile.
My heart was pounding on that first game. I wish he didn't go for the drones, if he fell back to 1 base and got ensnare he would have won. Sometime sacrificing your natural get the win is key.
Yeah i think ensnare would help him kill more mutas with less mutas. Or plague But greater spire? How is he supposed to be able to hide his mutas somewhere and morph devourers while mutas are trying to destroy all his buildings?
I came back to watch again while waiting for the next round of ASL 15, I remember that first game and the massive disappointment that the underdog threw so much after destroying SK's economy and having superior tech and static d, it could have been the single ZvZ game in ASL to go past the regular phase that every game ends in and seeing it again the dissapointment just hits twice as hard!
It’s really true. Two of my biggest passions are golf and SC:BW. When I play BW or golf for fun it’s nothing… But when there are any stakes it becomes considerably harder. Competition golf or BW makes it exponentially harder. I’m sure that goes with anything noth just golf or BW. It really makes u appreciate how good these guys are…. Thanks Tastosis love u guys!
57:05 Arty and Tasty butting heads over segueing to commercial, and I think Tasty used to do it more when they were casting live because Tasty has THE PERFECT announcement voice
I don't think Jobnuda's hiccup vs Silky was due to nerves, I think it was inexperience against strong opposition. Remember he didn't just turtle and rush hive, he went scourge before Mutas and built up his muta ball a little later. There's a lot of tweaks here to let him get into hive, so it's not surprising to me it's not 100% mapped out how to take it from there
Idk why it bothers me so much but damn tasteless you are so much closer to the camera, specifically your head and it’s just all I can see/hear some how.
I haven't watched this in over 15 years. Is Lost Temple just not a map that is played anymore? I can remember so many insane games on that map. Might SCBW be the best game of all-time?
Maps with so "hand drawn" layouts are bound to have positional imbalances, not to mention droppable high ground behind the naturals. Furthermore, the third bases are minerals only and there are no fourth bases except other starting locations for gas... It would need a remake, in the vein of SC2s Lost Temple to even be considered for modern play.
Why do pro zergs so rarely research burrow in ZvZ? It would save so many drones when the opponent makes a muta raid on the mineral line and once mutas are out neither player has overlords at the opponent's base so it's the perfect defence.
What does SK Terran mean? /gq I know some of the history of Brood War but idk all the terms. I'm assuming this is a reference to the way SKT Terran players played but idk what means specifically. Would greatly appreciate some clarification :)
In match 1 zvz why did the player gg? i agree he had the army disadvantage but he clearly had the economic lead + superior main defense. I think he could have drawn the game out longer to win.
He threw away a potential win when he traded his already lower muta count to try and hunt down the last workers. If he had the mutas *and* the spores and leveraged his drone lead/greater spire he might of been able to hold off an attack on his main, however the air armor upgrade and sheer difference in army size had left him at a big disadvantage despite killing nearly all the workers of his opponent. Its easy to judge all the decision making in hindsight but yeah I think he just felt desperate after he lost his drones/spores at the natural the second time.
@@spyfire242 I can understand in the heat of the moment and the amount of tournament pressure applied can result in poor decisions but I think with 5 spores in his main + higher drone count+ not alot but some mutas/scourges, I think he could have leveraged that to a win. would it have been possibly long and drawn out ? maybe but to just quit and gg right away I think was mistake. I don't think the muta count would have defeated his main defense. and with a drone count higher I think he could have out - produced him eventually
@@spyfire242 sorry kinda interpreted/ read your comment wrong - you agree with me that he could have won but the new player/ pressure got to him therefore he made the incorrect mistake of gging?
@@BrawlSucksBawls I think the mistake was attacking with his mutas rather than focusing on defense and letting his higher drone count/superior tech even the disparity between their armies. I definitely think he threw the game when he attacked so GGing was appropriate. Yes what he had was safe from being killed due to spores but he threw away so many resources that his opponent didn't have to attack him at all, just hatch more drones and maintain his lead, he could of also dove on the mineral line and lost half a dozen mutas in the process and still be ahead.
Bro I have no fuckign clue why Tasteless always says this shit that Soulkey is the full package of a Zerg player and his ZvZ is incredible. ZvZ is by FAR his worst matchup and is the main reason he has poor tournament results compared to other champs. Tasteless says this dumb shit every fucking season except when Artosis brings it up first. Jesus man it drives me crazy. It's like he doesn't retain any information at all
This is heaven. Blanket, tea, and StarCraft. Can't ask for more :)
Ask for cookies from ur couple and watch asl with them.
God it's so comfy to watch BW in 2022 with tastosis commentary. :)
That first ZvZ was insane, so fun to watch. Perfect sunday morning watching some ASL, thanks for all the content!
And I think it was decided in last 10 seconds. Literally.
@@sir0herrbatka You mean it was thrown in the last 10 secs...Soulkey was so dead...
@@dr.topgun I am no zerg player, but yes, that's my impression.
I'd love if they were all this great.

My mom already told me, but thanks anyway
Wife's boyfriend said that to me today as well : D
Thanks mom
Thank you ♥️
That 1:51:12 is one of the happiest dreams of any E-sport player come true... Lucky sSak!
I like how Tasteless keeps bringing up Stormgate and repping Frost Giant. Keep the fires burning!
That game has an actual chance to be a good rts in *current year*. A good campaign would be amazing for sales and players
@@jakovmatosic4890 Strangely, you're right. But let's be honest, RTS is not about the campaign! We all just want it to be a good 1v1 game.
@@blunts4brekfast without a good campaign, there won't be a good game, at least not as sc1
I’m late as fuck here but just gunna say look at what the campaigns did for AoE 2. They’re simple but so good that you can have people like me who only buy and play the game for the campaigns.
What a beautiful first ZvZ. Such challenging decision making. Imagine if the Greater Spire could've got use.

What a debut for JJabNewDe! That first game was awesome
Really liked the hyped friends in the end.
Soulkey vs JJabNewDe awesome ZvZ. Best ive seen in years now :D
1:51:12 If they ever made a Broodwar softcore porn film, it would start like this.
Hands down the most exciting ZvZ in recent memory.
1:51:10 sSak's friends are soooo cute to jump on stage like that hahaha. So supportive
Game 1 was better than expected
JJabNewDa was pretty cool. I hope he sticks to it and we get to see more of him in the future
Oh look, another cast and group to completely destroy my sleep schedule with. Yeehaw.
Edit: Oh THIS group. Ohohohoho, let's just say this group has some noteworthy surprises.
Sometimes I'm watching these ASL games and I'm just groovin to the SC music. Shit is still rad af.

I missed the korean chants so much, finally they re coming back!
That first ZvZ was lost entirely due to decision making at the end there.
Hearing the "FIGHTING" chants from the crowd is so nice to hear again. That takes me back.
My heart was pounding on that first game. I wish he didn't go for the drones, if he fell back to 1 base and got ensnare he would have won. Sometime sacrificing your natural get the win is key.

Or plague
But greater spire? How is he supposed to be able to hide his mutas somewhere and morph devourers while mutas are trying to destroy all his buildings?
I also thought Ensnare when I saw the Queen's nest
such an underrated spell
The new kid looked great!
A tastosis drop. Shit just made my day
Jab! Jab! Jab! Yes, and ofc the game where sSak kicks some butt! That was a brilliant game

JJabNewDa plays very well, much better than most ASL newcomers, IMO. He clearly panicked in his second game, but he seems better than this.
Nice to see some new blood. Keeps the scene healthy
Noice!
actually got to see some very enjoyable tvt matches
Wow, a ZvZ that managed to go off-script. Nice. I'm loving these casts as always, thank you.
@AfreecaTV eSports Please pad the VODs so we don't have the series spoiled by the remaining duration.
BROOD WAR NEVER DIES
This is SO FRIGGN AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!11
that ZvZ was amazing!
That ZvZ was awesome
ZvZ is my least favourite match up by far, but that first game was a lot of fun.
Can you put the group letter in the video name instead of just the day number? It makes it easier to search
Some really good mirror matches. Loved it !
Wow! So much fun! I want more PvZ games now ))
Thanks!
Butter TvT is pretty brutal. I think the map is just too small for the matchup, and the giant hill of hills is interesting but pretty sus
Gowron !!
For the Enclave

41:07 when you think something there's something happening in your room.
Awesome game at 16:00 !!
1st ZvZ was great!
Sadly hive and greater spire didn't have any use 😔
Really (slight spoiler)
The + 2 air armor really made the difference, the spores are far less effective at that point.
Holy shit, sSak, What an amazing performance, tip of the hat to you sir.
the casters in the background always make me think someone is yelling somewhere in my house. anyway love me some ASL.
crazy first game wow

SK terran is a style of tvz popularized by SK focused around marine medic science vessel
Heavy marine medic and science vessels, high mobility without using siege tanks.
when terran uses vessel, marine, medic against zerg. its named after an older terran player named soulkey (different soulkey)
Ya. Gas mainly for vessels, and minerals mainly for marine medic etc.
