Oh force fields OOOH FORCE FIELDS OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH FORCE FIELDS! But seriously it was quite interesting.

By the way it seems like this has been made quite soon after Battle Report 2 as this is still using the old Infestor models.

Not exactly, as air units can fly and ranged units can shoot through the forcefield. The unit able to produce it is available too early though and it might be a major advantage during a base siege. It was also a stupid idea to equip units with the Blink ability, it seems to be too much of an advantage, especially if it can be used to jump on cliffs, for instance. I don't know if that's available.

Anyway, the Zerg seem to have a few hax abilities too, the Mind control for example. The guy took over those Colossuses nicely, that squad walked into the trap nicely. It also had a large factor of luck in it, despite that.

That neural parasite was pretty sweet. Too bad the protoss were too rich to be seriously inconvenienced - would've been fun to see more of it at work.

Ya I totally agree. Dustin says some pretty stupid comments during the game. They try to make everything seem cool but they come off as overly enthusiastic.

However I love how the game plays out as there was a lot of back and forth. Sad to see the Zerg lose again, but the Protoss were beaten far worse by the Terrans so It's only fair.

Hope the next one is a 2 v 2 Battle Report. Could have some split screen action. Only problem is, Dustin might start talking twice as fast since there's twice as much action...

Dustin needs to shut his face and let Robert talk. Robert isn't annoying, I can take Robert's voice going a little faster and a little more enthusiastic than a normal person.

Dustin however, is like his face is in his mic so you can hear every breath he takes, he's loud, and I just don't like his voice a whole lot at those speeds and volumes. Don't like his voice at all really.

Yeah it might just be me, but they got some balancing left to do.

That's cool it's not even on the SC2 site. I'll watch it when I have time. But i'm starting to get sick of Blizzard's delays. They did so many things and make us wait so much just for a beta when this fall was supposed to be the latest release date with no further delays.

How about not so lame server e.g megauplaod where you don't have to wait 15 mins for 1 file???? Rapidshare sux.

Well... for a game that is based around overstating things (just go look at korean starcraft tournaments on youtube) I think it fits right in.

Although, when that zergling went for the probe they made a huge deal about it, after they stated that its shields regenerate twice as fast as in sc.
