Wow the stuff I see in the forums is so terrible. Especially the "strategy" forum? What the fuck is with that guy that gives his godly PvT advice? I mean I appreciate his effort into putting together something, but seriously, if you don't know what the fuck you're talking about, don't post it.

EDIT: Here is an example. This is actually above average in terms of skill.

When asked "what strats do you do in pvt?" this person responds

"i go a 3 cannon choke to hold rine rush then tech right to storm, which is followed by a 5 reaver recall and a speed z mass".

Nice strategy.

yeah i started this ladder 2 days ago and im 17-0 and currently ranked #2 on the ladder. i will be first to actually testify (having tried it) that the level is extremely low and game-i gets you much better games. Its also very abusable and sort of a pain to report ur games. There is no way of checking if the player is actually registered on the site or to find out how high he is in the ladder except for having to check it manually urself (once again, kind of a pain) and there is no anti-hack in force on the ladder T.T

With that being said, its about 2x more mannered then game-i and about 50x more mannered then wgt and I rely like the admin team alot (very friendly) which imo makes it funner then the other two ladders but whenever i want to get into shape or want some serious practice, I will not be playing this ladder. I personally would like to see this ladder get alot better but that would require the money part of the ladder being taken out of the website and i do not think people like Spartan are redy to do that. Wherever this ladder goes, good luck to it.

I just checked the ladder...

I won't be getting any better. I already posted in a "PvT guidelines" topic (it's sticky on the tips/tricks/strategy board, which I strongly recommend against going to) under my name (it's an anagram ). Some of my information may be wrong though (just timing wise), but it's much much better than the guide there. And it's just off the top of my head. If anyone knows me they'll know I can't play Protoss to save my life (except against randomkorean, where my 4 gate before robo mass zealot style seemed to work against his Terran XD).

Anyway, I'm really not going to be participating anymore. I expected to get _better_ at Starcraft, and with someone like summer[em] as number one, I can't really expect to improve a whole lot T_t

I do appreciate the effort Spartan and the rest of the admins there have done. It's nice seeing a ladder where people of all skill levels (ok, mostly beginners) can train. I would have loved something like this when I first started out.

Do you play money maps? If not, how are you familiar with the strategies that work on them?
I thought teamliquid was entirely low money Broodwar, so I am surprised to see somebody critique money-map based strategy.

actually the economy and build orders of money map games are very different because the cash flow is much, much faster

the guy ur talkin about isnt talking about money maps
( but actually the strat works pretty well on money maps )

but ye the level of the ladder isnt that high yet season 4 had alot of changes etc and theres enough todo but if everyone is like i wont play it since its low then it never gets good players
got to start somewhere right?
and there are pretty good players playing it u just got to find the right players

So if everyone comes and try it out a couple of times im sure ull like it

Hey wow, you're right! I guess they don't realize that those images are *copyrighted* and they most likely have no permission to use them...Wonder how happy blizzard would be to see that. I'm not going to be an ass and report it, but I'd suggest they get their own images ASAP.

I'm pretty sure he was being serious like on a non-money map.

And I know money maps have different build orders. Like double Nexus to get better gas flow etc.

No offense but alot of you are very ignorant of money maps. Also many players who play money maps are average-good ,some very good, plyers on non money. I myself have never lost any game on a money map to someone who plays non money.

Maybe because the first guy went 17-4 vs better ranked people.
