Is there a korean equivalent of TL.net (in terms of strategy)?

i don't really think so, there might be like vods with compertary shared on sites like neaver and cafe daum thou.

I've talked to a Korean caster/BJ about it and other than the fishbattle.net forum, there doesn't appear to be any more forums left. I believe playxp used to have a Starcraft 1 section but it's all sc2, LoL, and D3 now. He said people just use afreeca and fish to communicate for the most part.

ow ok.
The harder it becomes, the more you should focus on the basics.

Do Sunken Colony attacks miss a unit that is under dark swarm?

Does anyone know where wLauncher stores the StarCraft.exe path or how it launches it?


This tab handles all the gateways, exes, etc.
[image loading]

Click the 찾 기 button to search for the starcraft.exe

I hope that helps, if not, I'm stumped.


Nope, I know that already, thanks for trying though.

I figured out what it does (actually someone told me), but it's gay and hard to use for my purpose.

wtf traceurling? xD

The answer is:
YES, IT MISSES.

Swarm blocks ranged attacks on the units under it (doesn't block lurker attack). It doesn't block the splash damage, but burrowed units under swarm don't take damage from splash. Doesn't block attacks on buildings.

Only a single burrowed unit is unaffected from splash damage otherwise several lurkers together under swarm will still get i.e hit by tanks in siege mode.

No, all lurkers burrowed under swarm is invincible to tank fire regardless of any circumstance (except when they are in the process of burrowing/unburrowed/)

Under dark swarm, a burrowed lurker is immune to direct tank fire. But clumped lurkers take damage from the splash component of tank fire, as far as I know.

The tentacles trick us to think that it's not really JUST a range attack like cannons man. Those Japanese and their tentacles ...

terrans can lift buildings, so isn't more viable to drop hydras under dark swarm to kill the CC? I have been doing crack drops but they just lift away and run.

Cracklings are quicker and more expendable, you hope that they're too busy macroing or engaging or dropping or something to quickly lift off their CC. Advantage of cracklings over Hydras are cracklings can move around quicker, and DPS quicker, and if you lose them; no biggie it's only 300 minerals as opposed to 900minerals 300 gas...also just by forcing a lift off on the CC costs them a lot of mining time as the SCVs leave, and the CC can't mine until the cracklings and swarm are cleared out...it also depends on if they've made the mech transition yet, if they have then hydras might be viable...although in ZvT, crackling+swarm drops aren't as common, it's more of a crackling+ultra+swarm+hydra+lurker drop, or what you do is have a control group of cracklings running around looking to deny mining at a weak expansion...

Not really BroodWar related but is there a way to check details about my TL account? More specifically, the date I created my account.

How should I approach clearing mines in PvT before engaging the army?

I know it's a weird question, but still...
