Seems to me skill in SC2 doesn't transfer well over to BW.

Watching Dragon get owned at 15-1600mmr got me thinking that.

Same goes for me really. I can't control jackshit in terms of army when I get beyond 100 supply. So I just end my games as fast as I can. Literally played last 15 games like that.





FYI, Dragon is just getting back to SC1 again. He used to be one of the top Amateur Afreeca streamer back in old days. Dragon used to use ID GodBlessYong and Mio mainly when he used to stream back then. I highly doubt that his current losing trend will continue as he gets back into the game.

Does anyone use the trick where you can get workers to start mining from a geyser as soon as its completed without issuing a new order?

If you right click the geyser (say to a faraway expansion) and if when the workers arrive, the gas building is completed, they start mining right away.

forgot the button you press but you can order them to mine from geyser that is under construction and they will do so once it completes on their own.

Wait what? This works for under construction buildings?! Just tested it using 'gather' button, no dice. My method works though.

No my method is before you start construction of the building. Also in my experience, the building has to be done for them to start mining without my method. Right clicking a 98% building will just get them to sit beside it.

"about to finish" ??

from what I remember, I think it's when you click on an extractor that's about to finish building then you press "return" or whatever and they mine instead of just standing around after it finishes. At least, that's what I recall but haven't done this myself to confirm. Hope someone can provide some info on this ^^

You can test my method it works 100%.

I'm curious to hear your method what is it? Press return or whatever? I don't understand.

Anyway, gas income is huge and forgetting to send workers to gas is a big mistake. So, this trick helps out.

Like, instead of building the gas building then sending workers to the base, you flip the order and they auto mine the gas if you do it right.

So they just idle next to the building gas for an eternity until it's finished? lol

You can send workers to an under construction gas building using G, and if it's finished by the time a worker arrives it starts mining. I see bisu do this a lot.

Not sure what you mean. That happens if you right click.

Hmm didn't know that, sorry I tested the G button earlier but I guess they arrived before the building was completed. That seems useful to know as well.

My method could be useful sometimes I suppose. Say you decide to send workers to a new base, then give 3 of them orders to the naked geyser (right before you build gas building) but make sure its fully built when they arrive (you can shift-click moves and give the gas click last). It's like a set it and forget it, you combine the mineral and gas orders into one big motion.

Soooo apparently they've opened the floodgates, I'm getting almost exclusively Koreans now. I love facing better players but it's so fucking laggy that it's fucking impossible to even play. How the fuck is this so bad compared to what we had in the old days on iCCup? I played exclusively Koreans pre-SC2 and had absolutely no issues. If there ever was lag, it was nothing compared to this. It's not even fun to play when the game freezes every second. Like seriously what's going on

I got a few koreans too and didn't lag in any game, looking good thus far, it's just more boring that they don't understand when you talk shit

Not sure if you're lucky or if I'm unlucky. My first game was perfectly fine and playable. But the other matches were unplayable even on extra high. Obviously can't leave the game in the first two minutes (I'm fine with that since people would just dodge the good players and abuse), but I honestly don't want to play if my games are gonna be like that ;/

I got a bunch of games vs Koreans and a Chinese guy and only one of the games lagged. I think I would prefer it like this.
