[edit] Biography

He has worked in the video game industry since 1995 at a variety of companies, including Activision, Electronic Arts, and Simon & Schuster Interactive. He has experience in developing real-time strategy games, most notably as lead designer for Command & Conquer: Red Alert 2 and Command & Conquer: Generals, and as game design director for The Lord of the Rings: The Battle for Middle-Earth series.[1]

Blizzard Entertainment hired Dustin Browder on March 14th, 2005[2] to the position of senior designer.[3]

He says he brought no knowledge from his previous job at EA, since he wasn't working on games designed for esports there.[4]

[edit] Battle Reporting

On the battle.net forum, Browder uses the handle "Cavez". When announcing games, he's been known as "T-Bone".[5] He has an extremely enthusiastic reporting style and uses the term "terrible terrible damage" so much[5][6] it has even been proposed as a cheat code; Browder acknowledged the mockery.[7] It's even been used as a nickname.[8]

  7. With all these advanced techniques you mentioned, such as focus fire (http://www.1up.com/do/previewPage?pager.offset=0&cId=3172090&p=1), Will the Stalker still do Terrible, Terrible damage even without focus fire?

    Also, I think Terrible Terrible damage should be a cheat in StarCraft II that makes all your units kill everything in one shot.
