It usually is the other way around. Noobs host map, people start play, pros randomly tries it, they like and add more pros.

Now you are saying the top 1% plays it but not noobs?

Most ums has a very stricht way of either completing or mastering it.. Like for excample other desert strike maps has less unit / building options thats used to win games, this is mostly cause only few units is good so its rather doin same build order every game. This DS has alot more strategy options making it ideal for competition

The account names? some of the players have several accounts. If you like desert strike you should give my ds a try.. it will surely take some time for you too learn it at a mediate lvl. Most players used too other ds maps having hard time learning this cause of its complexity compared to other ds maps. theres alot of info in the link i gave up earlier also all the language in the map is in english so make sure to read all the messages than youll learn faster. Theres an info center in the map giving new to mediate players infos about all the building spawn and all the special stuff which is in the map.

Pros are pros, earning money that is. You mean desert strike experts that are actually noob at playing the real game :D

We really have to differ them. I really thought you meant SC:R Pros.

Yeah this is an ums map pretty sure that was said in topic top, ofcourse we dont all read text the same way.

I definately know some good players not having sponsorship just playing the "default game" for fun or ranks,

Alot of good chess players dont earn money on playing aswell, that dosent mean chess or the players are not good.

Its only very few SC BW players whos actually earning money on playing. its the interest from the mass of players that makes it possible to earn money on playing this.

I differenciate between noobs and pros this way Pros knows the game, the unit counters, to control units in micro and macro, to have a decent apm. Noobs are newcomers to me they learning all these things bit by bit some players never learn all this. With that said you can imagine id say theres alot of pros in this game where you would say theres only very few if you need to earn money on this to be pro.

Sorry for the unclear explaination of pros and desert strike classic pros. I dont know any players who earn money on playing sc bw playing this Desert strike

I am pro at desert strike classic with 10 years experience and I have never heard of this map version, nor any of my other pro colleagues, as I asked them on our discord server for desert strike pros. Just saying...

this map first version was released 2 years ago, so you cant have been a pro at desert strike classic for 10 years..

Theres other desert strike map maybe youve been pro at those.. but those is very monotopic doin same build order over and over for the same end spawn.. this desert strike classic is far better balanced if you have been pro at other ds theres a small chance that you can learn to be pro at this desert strike too but this as i said is far more complex than other ds.

Hard to call your self a desert strike pro if you dont know all desert strike maps

Desert strike classic is the most played desert strike past half year or more (on us west server)so if your collages donno it they cant really call them selves desert strike pros

Id call my self a desert strike pro cause i know all desert strike maps and im very good at the most played ones.

Desert Strike Classic has around 11-12 years. The fact you took a name from it for your 2 years old map doesn't mean it belongs to you. I'm talking about original Desert Strike Classic - the only one considered competitive for professional DS players so far.
We will give it a try though on one of our daily training sessions and give you a feedback. Please don't call yourself pro though, since your west scene has really nothing in terms of ds competition to our europe scene. I doubt I have even seen any of you on yearly DS Online Championships, mostly korean and european players have been qualified for it.

Im playing on eu server and ds classic hosted on eu server too just not as much mostly dsn 263 and dsnremaster 3,16/3.20 is hosted on eu servers.. theres only one ds called ds classic and thats mine. Theres an early made ds called ds queen final or ds queen beta, at earlier stage this was called ds revolution later on came dsnfinal and after that came dsnfixed... i dont know which of these you call ds classic cause i only know one ds called ds classic and thats mine.

Ive been playing ds now 15 years on and off and your collages prolly know me if they play now and have played past years. Im known by many ds players to be the best ds player. not that i havent lost vs other good players.. some ds maps are not well suited for competition play tho cause the balance lacks in those. one race always beats another if good players.. im up for proving this statement to your collages if they havent learned that by them selves. In my ds its different cause balance and strategy takes more skill of your play to determine the winner meaning all races can win another race if play good enough.

I havent heard about any online ds championship tho can you link me? i tryid making an tournament for ds there wasnt enough players.

your aware im talking about ds for scbw remaster?

original Desert Strike Classic = Desert strike queen final/beta? cause this aint really considered competetative enough to play a championship in that... and i can prove that anytime if you want me too

original Desert Strike Classic = Desert strike night fixed? cause this aint really considered competetative enough to play a championship in that... and i can prove that anytime if you want me too

I would like to know which version of ds excaktly your talking about.

I can surely Call my self ds pro cause i can win Any player you set me up with by playing by this rule if he choose The ds version ill choose our races, if i choose The ds version he choose our races thats a fully fair rule showing The knowledge and skill of Any ds there is and im good with doin both options he or i can choose The version
