@nathones
You’re ignoring the point I made before: Terran has a hugely varied unit mix. And you’re playing “let’s pretend” with the enemy. If he has a ton of Marauders it only takes a few air units to counter him. Sure, he can switch to Marines — but by the time he does, his Marauders are all dead and you’ve lost nothing (since you took out his Marines first).

@nathones
Right, and Blizzard requires that all players who build air do so _exclusively_, ignoring ground units?
No?
Then it sounds like one can build _some_ air, as support, and thereby avoid being countered by Marines.

Be that as it may, its pronunciation is not EXcape. See your dictionary for reference.

Semi boring game really. The red player made a few… BIG mistakes.
I dunno why but watching a ZvZ game seems more exiting than this one was. Thanks either way for commentating Crota.

Nah, I’m in electrical engineering. I had a sense for these things though. I sensed something was peculiar with escape seeming to have the term “ex” in it, so I just googled it and found the origins of the word.
Most people use words without even really knowing what they mean, and especially not knowing where they came from. Even simple words like opinion, conservative, murder, luck, etc.

“For God’s sake its escape, not EXcape.”
The funny thing is, the word escape comes from the words “ex” (out) and “cappare” (cape), as in, to ditch your heavy cape in order to run away.
So saying “ex-cape” is, at least historically, an accurate word. :D

@keserak air isn’t so great when terran mass marines every game or have the potential to switch from marauders to marines

You trip up on your words way too often and its kind of annoying. 4:40 Insomnia is the RED player, he did not have siege tanks on the low ground.
For God’s sake its escape, not EXcape.
Other than that, great commentaries. I enjoy them very much.

What do terran players have against bunkers and siege tanks? Why not build at least one viking to hunt down enemy medivacs? And someone else mentioned banshees. Terran has the most varied unit mix available (imo) but people just mass marauders, even if it costs them the game. Maybe the marauder voice actor is just too sexy to resist.

Why is there no air… Insomnia didn’t get a single siege tank or air unit other than a med-vac. He could have ended the game with a dozen banshees despite being so far behind in his economy.
