It was most likely locked because of the OP's nature as a poster. Look through his thread history to see what I mean.

to some BW is a religion, it even has a sub sect like the church of bsports which I believe has a congregation sometime in September for their lord's third coming.

i was wondering, is there any starcraft: BW communities in London, or if not. is there any in the UK?

Edit(because im not sure if double posting is allowed)

what is the case when coming up against 12 Zealots as zergs(at the start of the match), do you always must defend with sunkens and stuff?

you could have asked the 12 zealot question in sqsa.
yes, you have to defend with sunkens. in theory i guess you could just spawn like 50 zerglings but im assuming you want to respond with a relatively standard method. im pretty sure a normal 5 hatch build with 2 sunkens at nat and expo each easily blocks computer zealots rushes. dont really remember though

I've not heard of any, but there's plenty of places in London where you could maybe look to set one up and we can see how many people we can get. It's working for NY and LA!

That would be a good idea, of course that would take a lot of planning

We would first have to find London’s players from sites such as this

Then I guess we would have to find a place to gather everyone etc..

it's funny you mention that. as i was typing that reply i was thinking about bw ~ religion. i mean i have more faith in these players than i do in any diety that supposedly exists therefore i exist and without it i am nothing.
also, thanks for linking me that thread i hadn't seen it before

There are a couple thing bothering me about the current ranked/ladder maps

1. The Colosseum Map, you probably already know that, there is Zerg creep on the very narrow choke, this means that Zerg can put down proxy sunkens without a hatchery, this in my opinion, is very bias on Zergs favor.

2. There are some Maps; Ground_Zero_2.0_iCCup, CircuitBreakers, Overwatch, that does not allow proxy buildings at all because there are things in the way.

what is your opinion?

1) You're a Terran, aren't you? That proxy creep colony on colo can be dealt with easily by building a bunker on the highground at your natural.

2) Oh I've been proxied on all of those maps in multiple ways, it's definitelly possible if you're a little inventive.

My opinion is that map balance/factors are not the main reason you are losing your games.

You were asking us for ours, not the other way around btw. Opinions are like assholes, in the sense that even 1100 MMR players have them.

Grats ^^

And no, I don't think it was off topic. People complain about maps, match-ups, etc.. but until you get "good" none of that really matters. Plus, you can veto maps. A favorite for Protoss to veto is Collo afaik rn.
