@ Call me larrity:

You will have to repatch. However, note that you do not need to delete any folders or create any folders to view MLG replays-- simply save the replays into your multiplayer replays folder, and they will become visible along with your own replays when you're in the game. Additional folders make things easier to organize, but if you only are viewing a few replays it shouldn't be a problem. A general rule of thumb when messing around in your sc2 documents is to not delete any folders unless they are folders that you yourself created.
When you stare into the iCCup, the iCCup stares back.

Was there a thread that detailed the effect of upgrades on units?

For example, lings with less than +3 armor will still die to 0/0 zealot in 3 hits.

I remember seeing the thread somewhere, but I couldn't find it. Would appreciate a link to it.


A little hard to find. Had to search for my own posts on the subject instead to find the link. >_<

Is there any real reason to bind invidiual queens instead of hatcheries? Let's look at it. Queens bound individually.

Pros:
Tiny tiny bit faster

That's really all I can think of.

Cons:
You can't tap, well you can if you keep your energy perfect at all times but if you miss a few you will mess it up. With hatcheries bound individually you can keep track of it much better even if you mess up by a few seconds, it doesn't even matter. It will always be accurate.

Is it really worth sacrificing the allmighty tap feature for tiny tiny speed that will probably be slower in the end if you miss a few. With good tapping you will miss alot less.

This all depends on your inject style. I'm sure binding individual hatcheries would be great if you use the backspace method of inject, because that frees up a lot of the numerical hotkeys. Other than that, if you inject like 66vclick 77vclick 88vclick 99vclick then the speed is actually worth it in comparison to, say, the minimap method (which is far too slow in my opinion). Tap with injects isn't that useful now that the notification for an inject completing exists anyway, this would be a much bigger issue a few patches ago.

Stop will just stop the user in place, but they will still run after enermies that go near them, then leave. Also if the user is a worker, they will run from attackers
Hold position will make sure the user stays in the one spot, no matter what (Apart from triggers/mothership vortex, etc)

Woo, contributin! Now my question: How badly does Zerg need lair and hive? At what times should I be getting these and should I rush/delay them if the enermy is being greedy/agressive/turtlish

In the single player campaign, how do you earn credit? I ALMOST completed all achievements, however I cannot earn credits again and again. I heard you could do it in the older patch, but not anymore. So, How do you do it? I did a mission, on hard and got achievement, got credit. My bro however, did a mission on hard too, got achievement, but did NOT get credit = /

So what makes you obtain credits? Is it the achievements acquired or the difficulty of the mission that you complete a mission in?

Also, when you complete a mission, it says "reward" which is the same as credit, no? Yes. Some missions I complete, I get no rewards, others I do get them.

?

If you do the missions again, you get no additional credits. Would be pretty pointless because you could get all the upgrades just by doing any given mission over and over.

The rewards are usually zerg or toss research points which you can use in the technology lab, and you also only get them once. But if you finish a mission only getting 2 out of 3 of those research points, you can play the mission again and get the point you missed later on.

not unless it says so: in the nova/tosh missions you can earn credits by doing the secondary objectives. apart from that, not.

Then, any idea how to get more credits? I just need a few more, really, to unlock starport armory ><

Just 1 more round of credits (around 100K) and I will be ok.....

Can someone PM me their opinions?

What is the value of the F-keys? I know what they are but how useful are they in terms of becoming a better gamer? In BW, F-keys were used by pros all the time to hotkey expos and common fighting area for fast rally point shifts. Does sc2 scene even need f-key hotspots or is it that our players are not "good enough" to use it?
I ragequit if my split fails.

What's the best way to engage in a fight against Marauders with the Concussive Shells upgrade with only Gateway units without any upgrades?

Two simple questions:

1. What is the "bonus pool" online?

2. How many Lings can one Zealot hold off without any micro used?

1. You get 12 points (i think?) every day to your bonus pool. When you win, points are taken from that pool to double the points gained (if you have enough). This causes players who are inactive to drop down on the ladder so the ones actually playing are rewarded.

2. Without any upgrades: 3

I just tested the last one on the map "Unit tester". I highly recomend it for anyone wanting to test how units work against eachother.

Thanks for your response! I'll look into the Unit Tester map.

The most cost-efficient way to hold it off is to use primarily Zealot/Sentry with only a few Stalkers. Zealots have the highest DPS out of the early 3 Gateway units, and they can't be kited if you make a wall of Force Fields that sort of cups the units. A fight between MM and pure Gateway units pivots around proper Force Fields.

Going up in zerg tiers is just another way to respond to what your opponent is doing, for example: in ZvZ it takes a long time for players to make the lair switch (safely) because of how fragile the matchup is, and you'll really only see it if both players are safe from attacks somehow.

In ZvP, I usually take my first gyser around 21 and just keep mining for speed then lair. Lair tech opens up drop, overlord speed, and burrow, some very importaint upgrades to exploit in the matchup. As for hive, I alwase find losses where I just didn't go hive quick enough so I just set a rule for myself "I must have an infestation pit at 13:30 with a hive following" this rule has worked for me in the past as it tends to have broods out in time to defend most non-gateway 2-base timings.

In ZvT the question you want to be asking yourself is: "When do I want mutalisks?" then just work the timings game after game and you'll have your answer. Just don't delay it too much because of the threat of 2-base timings that you need baneling speed for. Hive is a similar question: "When do I want brood lords out?" and the answer to this will obviously differ from game to game but it isn't a hard thing to calculate on the spot.
