So, one of my friends has been the type to always argue with people who tries to teach him about SC (he started pretty late in my group of friends) and he always thinks he's right even though his knowledge of the game is pretty basic.
This is one of those little arguments over when to build a Pylon, whether at 7 or 8 supply.
+ Show Spoiler +
friend (11:12:24 PM): lets say i build the probe before my pylon
friend (11:12:30 PM): because of my ee-han timing
friend (11:12:37 PM): my 9th probe finishes
friend (11:12:39 PM): before my pylon
friend (11:12:52 PM): then im supply blocked for half a second at the end
friend (11:12:54 PM): whats the difference
friend (11:12:57 PM): no diff.
friend (11:12:59 PM): why argue
friend (11:13:04 PM): argue over half a second
friend (11:13:06 PM): lo
friend (11:13:07 PM): so stupids

I want to see TL's reaction to this .

He plays DotA too.

One time this guy overheard me talking about starcraft to some people, and he was all like "Yo i'm laik pr0su at ess see" and i'm all laik "WHATEVER". Next thing I know I'm throwin' dice in the alley and he's all like "WHAT'S UR FAVE UNIT" and I'm all laik "VULTURE" and he's all laik "NUB FIREBATS WAY BETTER" and I'm all laik "WHATEVER"

CAUSE THIS IS STARCRAFT OF WHATEVER /FACEPAAAALM

I have two friends who have APMs of about 20 (coincidentally, both play protoss). I managed to convince one of them to play another friend of mine who's a 200-APM D+ terran. Hilarity ensued.

I have a friend who can 2 base into 3 base carrier PvP, it's surprisingly strong. He actually just 2-3 base turtles for every race, it's crazy.

I get into these crap arguments way too much...and with some of the stupidest shit imaginable. Some people use builds that make absolutely no sense and try to justify it with "that's what all the good people do"..of course they can never give a single example.

Ya, my friends are just getting into Starcraft. 2gate all in zealots vs my FE... T_T was sooo close to losing. Good thing he sucks though and chased my scout around for like a minute.

Bah, half a second doesn't matter. Fuck you all.

Really, though... in amateur games, a few seconds doesn't decide it because both players are usually making horrible strategic mistakes and consistently worse macro, so the few seconds from difference in initial build won't make or break your game.

i have a friend who doesnt play starcraft and he's not my friend he's just some guy i pretend to talk to.

that came out more insulting and less pathetic than i'd originally planned.

I know the feeling. And the instant you lose, they never let it go ever. I was teaching some of my friends to play, and they were about 50-60~ apm terran nubs. And one of them pulled off a vulture sneak vs me, and ended up winning. Then he decided to "retire from starcraft", now that he had beaten me once, and brags about it for all eternity. >_>

i brought starcraft to school on a flash drive, and challenged all the jocks to a 7 v 1. they were all "I"M GOOD AT FLASH STICK CRICKET SO I"M GOOD AT GAMES!" i made on fastest (i don't normally fastest, gotta give them a little break tho) well ofc they didn't know what the hell to do, so i quickteched to a reaver and used splash to kill all their miners, the reaver had 94 kills by the end of the game, which surprised me because they only made like 5-7 miners each but i just went round and round the map, over and over. they were so fucking stupid though, they never learn't that i was just doing the same thing for the whole game. in the end i steamrolled them one by one with 200/200 goons vs like the 6 lings and extractor they managed to build. the result was my sexuality being called into question and vague, poorly worded physical threats.

i dunno if challenging jocks to a 1v7 in a computer game is good for your reputation, but haha nevertheless.

and it was fastest. you probably could've mass nexus probe attack
