Hey everyone.
I've had StarCraft for some time but I always used to be more interested in UMS maps. Fairly recently I became more interested in playing melees. One of my friends has been attempting to help me get better but to no avail.
I have difficulty with basics in the later game such as keeping worker production up, scouting, pumping units, and teching up. I seem to have issues with multitasking in generally; I can really focus on attacking, but then my production and economy dry up.
I play games with my friend, but he only manages to beat the utter shit out of me with simple strategies such as DT rushes or Reaver drops and I don't learn anything from the games I play with him.
If anyone would be willing to help, I'd be incredibly grateful.

Try Strategy(forum section below), but POST A REPLAY
on second thought you're better of in Blogs

Aside from this being in the general forum... provide some reps.

I don't know where it should go, and I dont know how to "provide some reps."

You upload them and you share the download link.
|
Okay... I don't know how to upload them. I'm COMPLETELY new to this site. This is, pretty much, my first time doing anything on the site.

seems you should get some basic knowledge of the game before you run and ask help in forums. Try the game manual or the single player campaign ;P
|
read guides in the strategy section, download some replays from good players. Save your replays and watch what you do wrong, focus on one race and learn some build orders. Play a lot with some players like you (create noobs only games on wherever you play), and remember to enjoy the game. Where do you play?

I've done that, I've beat the Original campaign, but Broodwar just can't seem to hold my attention. Not sure why...

I've done all of that. I watch commentary on YouTube and I've learned alot from those. I know what I do wrong, I focus on terran and I know build orders. I just can't do the basic stuff.

Not too sure about your problem but, again where do you play? can you beat the computer 1v1 on meele? how long do you take? At least that should give a reference.
|
His name says enough 
If you want help, you should try the strategy section, memorize some basic BO's or give us some replays so we can givee you tips
Hope this helps
Oh and also, massplay with your friend (if he's any good he'll teach you the basics)

USEast, and I can beat a comp very easily. It can take me anywhere from 20-40 minutes if I'm not doing some sort of odd rush.
|
20-40 minutes vs comp... I think you should first work on that, then proceed to learn more
|
My problem isn't knowing stuff. I know how to play. I just can't physically or mentally do it! I can't have my attention on both my attacking group, my factories, and my worker line.

It mostly comes with playing a lot, though if you specifically practice that it'll come faster. Might be best to practice in a no-pressure situation (not vs a person) like BlueIris's training exercise.

You guys aren't getting it. I KNOW build orders, I CAN do them. It's just everything turns to shit when I have to build my economy, an army, and attack at the same time.
