Protoss game I played in 1v1 placement matches.
I haven't played placements yet, been playing all practices so far.. actually only 3 games so far. Lost my first one, went back to the drawing board and practiced a bit more to get everything down and all the counters and what not and I am doing a lot better now.
I should be getting my copy later today!
onox and I had the most amazing 3v3 round ever. Me and onox flew our bases over to islands where ground forces couldn't get to us. Our other team mate was Zerg and was creating infestors. Me and Onox were creating Banshees and vikings and battlecruisers. We destroy both of their terran bases pretty easily with invisible banshees. Then the fucking protoss was being obnoxious and built a mothership and hid his one base and we just couldn't touch it since he had void rays. then I scanned the base later on, one of our infestors [b]HACKED[/b] the mothership and then we destroyed it and uncloaked his base and destroyed everything. It was amazing.
Loving this game, loving the multiplayer, loving the campaign, loving the custom games...
I suck at multiplayer though!

wut
3v3
all zerg
all infestors
infestors + infested terran and control of units = pwnage
The gold minerals are too easy to defend, needs to have more openings, way more.
A terran could just lift off and go there at the start.

Get scouted and you are screwed!
It's not very impressive. We failed to micro we were laughing too hard.
What do motherships do? And protoss bases can cloak?
[QUOTE=pdkm931;23839042]What do you think I should add/remove?

Happy to setup a download if you want it :buddy:[/QUOTE]
This looks like a terran could defend all three mineral fields at the start by placing a few siege tank on the ledge. You should fix that, also perhaps remove the rocks to the third mineral field and place only one blocking the actual minerals instead.
Edit: also yeah place rocks on all the minerals instead of on the ramps (unless the rocks are facing towards the expanding player i.e. you need to kill rocks to expand efficiently but your opponent can always get in.
YES! \o/ i won a 3v3 placement match, i rushed with mutisks and devastated the other teams Eco, while my teammates (both Terran) spammed some marines.
Think im finally getting the hang of this! :3:
[QUOTE=Godrek;23843142]What do motherships do? And protoss bases can cloak?[/QUOTE]
Whatever a mothership is flying over, is cloaked.
The mothership can also teleport in any protoss units.
That second nuke was facepalm material.
The guy ran all his marines into it. :v:
That sounds pretty crazy. Can the mothership cloak? Or cloak flying units? It seems like it'd just be a big I'M OVER HERE sign.The teleporting sounds nice.

Haha yeah I was under the impression the red markings were invisible to enemies, now that I realize they are visible to both it makes it even funnier :v: but my Viking bait was pretty sweet :P

I'll get it in a second.
[QUOTE=Murdoco;23843445]I'll fraps it and upload it to youtube since it was so epic. what speed should I set it at? The game was pretty long.[/QUOTE]

I saw that second Nuke, I lol'd. Maybe he'd of stood a chance if he didn't slaughter all his marines! Nice Viking bait though, I agree!
-snip nevermind-. Uploading now.

There ya go.
Hmm, I want to make something with the Editor, but I don't know what. Maybe a melee map (with some special shit, like lava/liquid rising every now and then or debris falling from the sky).
So what team does everybody play? I play the Zergs. Oh yeah!
iZerg
Terran 4 lyfe
Terran because they're the best.

No? There's rocks in the way and you'll be able to make so many marines to defend against any early rush that breaks through the rocks.

I don't know about you but I only see a small red dot when an enemy uses a nuke.
