Is it bad that I play this game regularly and still have little to no idea of what you just said? :)

Last night was good everyone, more of the same tonight?

An archon toilet is the idea of using a mothership's vortex to trap the enemy's army, then to dump a few archons into the vortex. When the vortex finishes the archons will attack immediately, and because of their splash damage they will basically insta-kill the whole army when it's clumped together.

Of course this is all pre-1.3 patch :), now there is a small time period afterwards where all units are immune to damage, hopefully reducing the effectiveness.

edit: I believe this daily shows it quite nicely, it's somewhere near the end:

What he said.

Apart from the patch "reducing the effectiveness", after some testing by people on TL.net it will still utterly ruin peoples day.

How do banelings work in them now? Do they just afk for 1.5 seconds after getting out of a vortex, or do they still explode but just not hurt anything?
 
So it's not possible to see your total losses now? Not a big deal to me, but I notice a lot of people bitching about it and I'd have to somewhat agree.
 
Archon toilet getting nerfed is such bs. It requires a massive amount of tech and was almost never used. Also i dont understand why theyve gotten rid of showing losses everywhere, it was useful.

As I've said twice now, the nurf has made very little difference.

Example: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=204180

Basically it's now just slightly less strong against fast moving units, however it will still do a massive amount of damage to them.

My general tactic: 1-a a bucket load of lings into the opponent. Rinse and repeat until one of us dies :p.

We had some good games :), well played.
