Going to be doing my first Skyrim playthrough shortly, and I figured I would try streaming it.
I'm not exactly sure how my computer will handle it, but it's going to be a stress test for upgrading my computer next month. For those curious, I'll be playing a mage-ish character and the graphic settings will be on low.
The stream can be seen here: www.Twitch.tv/MasqSC

For some starcraft related news, I figured I would start a semi-frequent blog series where I post replays and screenshots of people raging on ladder for some laughs. Maybe it's just me, but I frequently run into high master/GM players that seem to love shit talking and swearing. For some reason, a lot of these players are Zerg as well. I guess they're just an angry group of players. I have some pure gold replays of Lalush in the vault for later

Rager Replay of November 10th: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/41022690/Masq(T) vs SimpsonJCat(Z) - Metal Rager.SC2Replay
TvZ on Metal doing 1-1-1 into double CC.

I'll have more content for my next rage-blog but here is a replay from today. I've accidently deleted the post-game chat where the zerg player decides to insult me but not before putting me on ignore. Such delicious zerg tears make me smile.

Is it just in the nature for people that tend to be more aggressive/angry to play Zerg in sc2? I find the majority of the rage I find on battlenet comes from Zergs as well. I'm soooooooooo pumped about Skyrim it's not even funny!

no, it is because we are more passive until mid to late game and more vulnerable to cheese and so for macro zerg, we lose before we can even start having the fun part of the game if we get caught off guard.

Hard to say. I picked zerg because I'm an asshole. I don't know why everyone else picked it.

This . Zergs can't really cheese and be effective most of the time because it really is bad and losing to cheese a decent amount is very frustrating from terran especially when you can't scout it if their smart with marines. That is why you get so many masq

Zergs complain becuase they're whiny people in general. They're mad because they have to constantly focus on their queens and hatcheries and when something doesn't go their way they blame the balance of the game because they think they're more skilled by default for playing zerg. They also have distorted views on what "cheese" is. Everyone knows mid to late game zerg is very powerful, so if you want to beat the zerg, you have to strike early and follow up with something powerful. That's the game. It's not cheese.

And I disagree that "zergs can't really cheese.." If a zerg player masses mutas and constantly harrasses mineral lines with 25-30 mutas, it's not cheese? Lol. Zerg players are somethin else, aren't they? They expect to drone up and max out at 200/200 and remax when needed and if they lose then its because they 'did something wrong'. If they can't get to 200/200 with their ridiculously mobile army they complain about balance.

Sad state of Starcraft.

Zergs are not whiny people in general, they make quite the valid point. if Terran and protoss couldn't make any units till 12 minutes, you would be whining too. The thing is, that if Protoss or Zerg do something to force units, you either need to know exactly what is coming (for example, try scouting a tech lab on a starport to produce banshees when a terran has marines around the edge of his base. if it's inside the base, you won't see it until overlord speed, at which point it will be too late.)

And you seem to have a distorted view upon cheese as well, seeing how you think 25-30 mutas harassing IS cheese. That being said, I agree the only thing that should change, is that it should be a little easier to scout, perhaps by slightly improving the movement speed of overlords to accomplish it.

OT: I'd love to see someone stream Skyrim, however I feel like it will spoil the game for me, so I might not watch, but I'll see. Definitely an awesome thing to see a bigger variety of games being streamed (:

I really enjoyed it so far. I've killed 3 dragons so far, and have like 50 spells. I've done a destruction/conjurer mix with some archery. It's fun, but I'm only played on "Adept" settings.

I'll probably try playing on a "Master/Expert" setting if I get unbanned from JTV and I'd go with a pure archer character.
