I thought ICCup was the server to go on but apparently it has only 800 people.. I'm pretty confused, could anyone help me out? A lot of people (myself included) dislike Iccup because they're admins have pulled a lot of bullshit, which spurred some of us to start playing on Fish. However, if you're just learning, I imagine it coul be jarring to have everything in unreadable text, so it might be a good idea to stick to Iccup for the time being, at least until you have a handle on things. There shouldn't be too much difficulty finding games at D levels in Iccup, as the that makes up the large majority of the 800 players, so don't worry about that too much. | ||

So you know my experience level I will say that I have played maybe 30 games on the Fish server with around 10 being ladder. jOypOp`` is my username if you want to find me on online. + Show Spoiler [Guide to Laddering on Fish] + ![[image loading]](http://img839.imageshack.us/i/fishladder.png/) + Show Spoiler [The Ladder System] + Fish (and Brain too) use a different ladder system than ICCup does. Instead of having letter ranks from D- up to A+ (and special CPU/E or Olympic ranks), its basically an ELO system. Think back to the old Bnet ladder if you played back then. If your number is high, you are ranked better. I once heard that 1600 Brainclan is around A- ICCup so if Fish is the same then that "goodplayer" sitting at 1714 is pretty gosu. + Show Spoiler [Getting into a ladder game] + In the chat people are advertising or searching for games. If you saw people on ICCup spamming "D Python Msg" "C- Zerg fighting spirit" or anything similar, that is what is happening here. If you don't have the Korean Font installed it can be kind of hard to get a game quickly so I suggest you do that before trying to ladder. In the screenshot there are basically 3 spams that are good for pointing out things.
B. joolri1014's spam says "1047 ++ Mini Launcher Fighting Spirit" C. I can't really translate exactly (I'm not korean so I'm learning this from experience mainly) BUT the way I translate it is "901 ZvZ play msg~~@". Looking at this list shows two or three important things. Most Koreans will play certain maps and only those maps (usually Fighting Spirit or python). They also like to focus train their matchups so joining a game that advertised ZvZ and picking Terran will only make you look about as silly as stork did at the OSL finals  .When you find a game that looks good, send a whisper to that person. It doesn't have to be anything complex. What I do is go /w Jungwoo- 533#L2/1 and create fighting spirit. Wait like 20-30 seconds and if he doesn't join I repeat the process. It takes 1-3 tries before I get someone into my game. + Show Spoiler [Some basic vocabulary] + There are some key vocabulary items you can memorize to help get games easier. For now I'm just listing what I can think of off the top of my head but I might add more later. The Races: 테란 = Terran 저그 = Zerg 플토 = Protoss 프토 = Protoss 토스 = Protoss they many times also shorten race names with the first syllable so it would become 테 저 프프 (for PvP matchups etc). Other stuff 만 = Only 귓 = Message 방 = Room (Game room/lobby in this context) 주세요 = (kind of like "Please" I guess?) 방주세요 = (Basically combining 방주세요 meaning "you make") 투혼 = Fighting Spirit 파이썬 = Python 한겜 = One Game ㄱㄱ / 고고 = gogo ㅈㅈ / 지지 = gg 초보 = Chobo (Noob) 고수 = Gosu Using this you can pick and pull parts to create game advertisement spams or read them if you can't host. Being unable to host though will make it 10x harder to join games. Examples (feel free to copy paste if you want): 970+++ 저그만 투혼!!~ 943+++ 투혼 방주세요~~~ 1013++++ 파이썬 442#L2/1 875 토스 초보만!! etc. I'll let you translate them though as practice for reading this stuff.  Everything here though is what has worked for me. It should be pretty accurate except where I said I wasn't completely sure. If anyone has questions just ask. Tired of formatting and stuff so I'll just update my post like it is now. ^_^ Quoting this post I made a while back so more people see it~ | ||

Its fine to go on ICCUP if your rank is lower than C- you'll get plenty of games there. But if you want to play more competitive go play on Fish and Brain. | ||

It doesn't matter what version of windows 7 you have, you need to set your region to S. Korea in order to see Korean text in a game lobby and in a game. | ||
