i don't understand...

in this game, i just played against a typical d+ protoss user on python. if you bwchart the rep, he doesn't use any hotkeys above 4. in the entire game, he was literally 1a2a3a.

i feel like shit that this game dragged on and ended after exactly 26 minutes. this kid had 112 apm, while i was practically utilizing all my hotkeys with 222 apm.

it pisses me off that a player like him with such a low apm with 1a2a3a tactics, hes able to pull off some gay shit to make it into a late game.

rep: http://repdepot.net/replay.php?id=8498

this rant is not directly against this particular player.

my point is that i wouldn't have minded, only if this guy was doing as much as what i was doing.

ps: my scan timing might have been off during the 1st push, and maybe i could have ended the game then, but remember that it's not just this game as a whole. only the terran users would know

respect to all terrans and zergs.



it sounds like you need to stop worrying about how fast you move around and focus more on what you actually do with your actions.


well i think it's pretty much the consensus that terran demands a lot more apm and less adaption than protoss' low apm and high adaption (i think chill actually talked about this in liquibition)

if you think its hard killing shitty protosses in tvp you should try killing shitty terrans pvt. even the worst terran player can make me waste an extra 10 min by just sitting with their natural and turtling and not gging while i have the entire map. i mean he doesnt even need 123 apm or any hotkeys all he has to do is build tanks and fuckin siege them and you will waste a good 10 min of my life. i wouldnt even bring this up except it happens all the time and its really annoying

Any time you lose (or hell, not win quickly enough!) you can always say "well I'm playing the hardest race, noob". It's elitism and it takes away from the spirit of what is supposed to be a fun game. I play Protoss. And I lose. A lot. I don't give a shit. I'm secure in my mediocrity and just want to hang out with like minded people who enjoy playing the best rts game in the whole damn world, not people who get off on constantly complaining about how hard they have it and how much better they clearly are than everyone else.

Just had to get that off my chest.


i don't care if i lose to a good player. i actually enjoy both winning AND losing, but maybe im not getting my point across correctly.

here's the scenario that happened after this replay,

"wow, shit 26 min long game. damn, it wasn't easy"
"i think i played someone decent"
(starts firefox for iccup website, checks the guy's record and flag)
"wtf.. barely 50% win ratio at D+, and not a korean"
"okay, let me take a look at his match list, hmm,, i admit that hes played a lotta koreans."
"let me check the rep on bwchat"
(looks at the hotkeys and apm)
"WTF... /cry"

why are you judging someone on their apm and hotkey usage?
isn't that a little bit retarded?

it's like, would you be happy if he played exact same skill level but have 200 apm and use all hotkeys? what? who cares?

but the fact is that ONLY 120 apm can easily suffice to contend against 200+ apm terran players. 200 apm of not really spamming that is.

and that is really disappointing. how he can half-ass the game by just doing 1a2a3a and simple macro.

it happens to me to.

where do you get off making these generalizations based off of 2 players?

it's like, for some reason a 120apm protoss with 120eapm is somehow half-assing the game as opposed to a 200apm protoss with 120eapm? really?

thats not how it works on low levels

its 40eapm protoss vs 100eapm terran

on lower levels protoss is substantially easier than terran. We've had this discussion on TL many times, and the majority of people (even protosses) agree with it.
SKT_Best: "I actually chose Protoss because it was so hard for me to defeat Protoss as a Terran. When I first started Brood War, my main race was Terran."

quite fair too, sir.
as arbiters can not only cloak units, but easily stasis your army.

if he was my level, i would be satisfied. why? because he was my level.
if i played and lost against kwark, whos supposedly a really good player with low apm, i would not have minded. i'd understand that his mechanics are better than mine.

u still don't get that APM is not the main topic here.

yeah but your forgetting that the 120 apm protoss actually has to think and react to his opponent during the game and cant just sit in his base until he has a certain amount of units then attack
