Starcraft II Megathread V.1 'Hell, It's About Time' - Games

I'll play a game then post a replay..Tell me what I need to do better. I don't care how blunt you are.

I liked his final words "HACKER" [editline]12:10AM[/editline] he was actually a gold 1v1 player

Just got promoted to diamond as Protoss! Ask me questions if you want.

Had a match last night. It was incredibly fun. Lasted 45 minutes I believe. I had two CCs. One was grounded and scanning and one was flying. I had banshees left. I gave my friend control so I could control my reapers and distract them. They only had one building left but destroyed mine before I destroyed theirs. Fuck.

[QUOTE=matark;24023267]Just got promoted to diamond as Protoss! Ask me questions if you want.[/QUOTE] Will you play with me?

So here's me losing another game...I admit I fucked up in a couple places but I tried to counter everything that came at me...I saw voids I make vikings, I saw Stalkers I made marauders...It just didn't matter in the end.. [url]http://www.gamereplays.org/starcraft2/replays.php?game=33&show=details&id=138434[/url] please suggest some things..I know I messed up in some places but I just need suggestions. I Just lost over 5 games in a row and I'm starting to hate this game even after I used to be #5 in my league.

[QUOTE=Dragon;24023205]I liked his final words "HACKER" [editline]12:10AM[/editline] he was actually a gold 1v1 player[/QUOTE] we all know that cannon rush is a flawless strategy that cannot be beaten by anything less than hacking.

[QUOTE=matark;24023267]Just got promoted to diamond as Protoss! Ask me questions if you want.[/QUOTE] How many points do you have to have/win loss ratio to get promoted? I keep winning but it's not promoting me >:(.

pretty sure you need to be near the top of your division, don't you?

[QUOTE=JohnnyMo1;24023475]pretty sure you need to be near the top of your division, don't you?[/QUOTE] I'm tied for 6th in my plat league, :(

I'm going to get the game soon, so look forward to another user uploading replays of his flawless tactics, asking about why they don't work. Also, I'm so glad you won against that arrogant prick, Dragon.

If you're losing to certain types of units, you're probably already using the best possible unit against them, but you're just not getting enough. You just need to have more stuff and build things in a smoother order. Your second supply depot was too early because you had to cut an scv to make it. You should be able to build everything without cutting any scvs and having constant unit production from all your buildings. Make scvs constantly as long as you can, but try not to queue a lot. If you're queuing too many units, it means need more barracks or factories. Your opponent had over 50 probes but you only had about 35. If your money gets high spam barracks or something, just spend your money some how. If you build scvs constantly, continually add on more production facilities, and spend all your money you could beat people like that in 10 minutes.

[QUOTE=Mr_Razzums;24023396]How many points do you have to have/win loss ratio to get promoted? I keep winning but it's not promoting me >:(.[/QUOTE] Before I got promoted I was 2nd in my division. My win/loss was something like 47/23. I hear that there's a bug with the ranking system that makes it harder to be promoted by winning. Try dropping a few games on purpose and then winning all of a sudden. That was how I got promoted to platinum. I think I lost 4 games in a row, won the next one and got promoted, and I got promoted to diamond after losing 2 in a row (and some how being promoted after beating a gold player).

I'll try this out in a minute.

Is there any as Zerg way i can support my teammates i mean we won but i always was the guy who got most of his units and exes killed.

FUCK I was doing REALLY well and battle.net fucking drops me. argh.

Anyone here play with a trackball?

First time playing zerg against medium AI. I lost :frown:

Me and my friend are just messing around in 2v2 as random. We just try new tactics that seem insane and that don't look like they will work, surprisingly the other side is usually caught off guard and we win.

Hahah I thought I was being ~super slick~ with an Infestor by grabbing one of the other guy's High Templars but it didn't have psi storm :saddowns: [editline]01:05AM[/editline] did end up winning when I fungal growth'd all his zealots mid-charge and ate them with hydralisks :c00l:

yay I did what you said -chu- and kicked this guys ass. he barely killed any of my men. I actually stopped 3 or 4 rushes. (was playing against terran)

So been playing ALOT (300 matches so far) However sometimes when I lose I just simply can't figure out what I should have done better. Anyone has any suggestions? [url]http://www.sc2replayed.com/replays/55496-1v1-terran-protoss-blistering-sands[/url] I'm the Terran btw.

Unless you're up against big units with energy like thors or battlecruisers, in which case they're a godsend. I suppose infestors count, though psi storm demolishes hydras.

[QUOTE=Murdoco;24024417]yay I did what you said -chu- and kicked this guys ass. he barely killed any of my men. I actually stopped 3 or 4 rushes. (was playing against terran)[/QUOTE] What advice was that.

[QUOTE=JohnnyMo1;24024612]Who goes HTs and doesn't get psi storm? [/QUOTE] thats the joke
