crazy new Tscmoo protoss strategy

Whoa, did y’all see that? Tscmoo protoss has a hilarious new strategy: Cannon contain into mass dark archons with mind control!

The cannon contain may win a lot of games against unprepared bots, but the dark archons—I’ve never seen that many at once.... This is even wilder than Tscmoo terran’s nuke strategy.

Update: An even funnier picture: Mass dark archons chasing after a floating engineering bay.

Any chance for a link? In general I find this blog interesting but don't really follow the scene/care enough to go find stuff on my own.

OK! Here’s a replay from today of Tscmoo protoss versus Skynet (aka Andrew Smith). Not sure how long this link is good for... maybe I’ll rehost the replay on my own site if it goes stale.

Going for mass Dark Templars would be a better idea versus Terran bots, since most of them have problems with detection.

It would be useful to have 1 or 2 to feedback a science vessel though. But for the most part they seem to prefer to target my medics.

Anyway, this is clearly a just-for-fun strat. Maybe he needed a break from working on the neural networks. :-)

Indeed, it's just for fun :)

You should come hang out in #bwapi on freenode sometime. I just found this blog a few days ago, it's interesting :D
