This stupid map called me a Warcraft 3 player

This is just my blog for being depressed about learning to Brood War. I can barely beat the P computer with standard play as T(just siege expanding and then adding some factories, I'm not even good enough to control vulture harass while macroing) and I'm having a super hard time learning to split my workers effectively. I don't think it matters that much as long as I can approximately get a 2-2 split done, as far as I know, but it feels a little exasperating to know I can't even send workers to the right patches.

It's so tempting to blame my equipment. I'm using a little Logitech laptop mouse with my Asus 900HA eeePC netbook, but I think I'm just terrible at Brood War. So terrible I can barely click my guys and tell them to do stuff.


Nah dude, splitting is pretty hard to be honest. Even C/B ranked players screw up their splits pretty often. Its a bunch of accurate clicking in a really quick time frame as shit is moving.

If you wanna play without computer you can either go Multiplayer LAN UDP and kick comp in countdown or you can turn on power overwhelming and then send your normal scout scv to go attack comps nexus. It wont bother you for the rest of the game.

If you ever want any practice/help/assistance/support feel free to PM here or add sGs.LucidDream on ICCup and message me. I am always interested in helping out.
EffOrt and Soulkey Hwaiting!

Thanks for the practice offers! Next time I get on iccup I'll contact you guys and see what we can do ^^ I am kinda addicted to this worker split stuff though, I think I'm gonna be spending a lot of downtime at work practicing this map and trying to figure out why I can't even get out of the 0-19% range.

Keep up the practice and you'll eventually get as good as this guy:



I'm sure you realize that having trouble beating the AI means you have more important things to work on than worker splitting, but hey, I think we all understand getting obsessed with some little thing and trying to perfect it. In a game as complex and difficult as BW it can be a little overwhelming to look at the big picture, and improving some minor concrete skill never hurts.
