I suggest you don't take pro games too seriously unlike what many people here are saying (im talking the korean pro-games).

Their level of playing is so advanced. Unless you know what they are doing and why, then don't bother. I suggest you play vs the computer to start, and just know what buildings do what, what units do what, etc.

That will actually take a while by itself so start there.

Yeah starslay3r dabble!

Read the strategy section here AFTER you play a lil bit. I am guessing this is one of your first RTS experiences and if that is the case you are going to want to pace yourself. This is a frustrating, HARD game to play. The good news is you can literally go _anywhere_ and SOMEONE will have heard/played this game. If you can find anyone at work, amongst your friends or something to play LAN with or dork around with you will enjoy it more. Until then you have me to entertain and work with you!

-read strategy forum
-watch some vods (not too many, that is for later when you understand the game better)
-ask lots of questions here
-don't get mad at losing, get pumped and want to do better
-practice!

If you hunker down and get _any_ kind of skill in this game you will be raised up as a hero. Seriously NO girls play this game.

PS: This is one of my girls. If some guys feel the need to be complete dicks for the simple reason that she is a girl I would advise you do not do that. She is an awesome human being and deserves initial respect. If not because I ask then because of what she is in the gaming world, a celebrity.

THANKS!

well put geoff !

dont be afraid to play the computer AI and master it. play the campaigns. learn to enjoy the game and youll be good at it. and i like the comment about be prepared to lose. go to battlenet, now adays, and all youll find are the hardcores. 99% of those people fall into the "way way too much starcraft" crowd. and yes, this game rules.

Theres no particular reason why not, but its kind of like picking a random sports team, you should have a reason to choose it, even if its as trivial as "i like the way the logo looks."

I'm really really new/bad at Starcraft/RTS genre as well and I have plenty of free time, if the OP (or anyone else who's in a similar situation) wants to practice a bit against someone who's, uh...horrible. Toss me a PM or something.

Here is a the best tip anyone can ever give you. Right this down. Ok first you start off making probes and rallying them to your minerals. Be sure to have all of them mining. Send out your 6th probe to the middle of the map. At 8/9 supply build a pylon in the middle of the map. Make a 9th probe. Then just let your probes mine and once you get 150 minerals make a gateway. Once you get 150 more minerals, make a gate way. Then scout for your opponent, keep up probe production, rally your gateways to his base and GG! PROTOSS FOR LIFE.

But, if you want to be a Zerg scum, split your drones, don't make a drone. Build a pool at 200 minerals, then wait. Once your pool finishes, sz, build your zerglings from your 3 larvae. GO OWN YOUR OPPONENT. Rally your hatch to his base, once you find him. GG!

Note: Using these strategies could lead to violent/aggressive actions taken towards you after the game. BUT, the upside to these strategies are, you will most likely win AT LEAST half your games on the local battle.net server.

Have a great day!
