I don't like how medium looks at all but on low its very hard to tell tunneling claws in ZvZ Yes hybrid settings. It exactly aims towards your question making the "necessary stuff" more visible - the invisible units especially, while keeping as small distraction as possible (low grafics). You can use it with low/medium/ and even high. You will simply add certain options at the end of your settings, there are also a lot of ways to customize for the advanced youser, but you don't have to do it. as heads up - every time you change grafics ingame, you have to re add it search for teamliquid hybrid settings , edit: https://www.teamliquid.net/forum/starcraft-2/498454-hybrid-settings-30-lotv-edition edit: to make it even easier for you, safe these and add them add the end of your variables.txt in the sc2-document folder: + Show Spoiler + antialias=0 bakeTerrainLighting=0 creeptrans=1 globalhdr=1 glossmaps=1 GraphicsOptionEffectsDetail=1 GraphicsOptionModelQuality=1 GraphicsOptionOverallQualityVer7[15]=5 GraphicsOptionPortraits=1 GraphicsOptionShaderDetail=1 GraphicsOptionShadowQuality=0 lighting=0 lightingLevel=2 lightingregionmapterrain=1 localhdr=1 lowqualitymodels=0 normalmap=1 particlelod=1 pixellight=1 portraits3d=0 preBlendedCreep=0 sampleFOW=1 shadows=0 shadowmapsize=0 simplifiedCloaking=0 simplifiedShaders=0 spec=1 splatlod=1 textureBasedFOW=1 use20shaders=0 useLowqualitymodels=0 To better understand and or modify look into the link. | ||

I'm a former mid-high masters player thinking about coming back and I've played a few games in Diamond recently and won without it, but I never see pros stray from it. You don't NEED to, but it's recommended if you want to save yourself a headache | ||

Edit: Resolved, I have to start it from the folder, not from ingame. then it works. How do i watch these replays? https://lotv.spawningtool.com/replays/?p=1&pro_only=on&tag=10&query=&after_time=&before_time=&after_played_on=&before_played_on=&coop=&patch=&order_by=# It says: all data files must be fully downloaded. I could watch a few even of maps I never saw, but others not. | ||

I'm asking because after coming back to SC2 after a ~5 years break, my APM are much higher than they used to be. I tells me I have about 150, but back when I was playing I was using SC2Gears a lot and I had considerable lower APM. And I doubt me playing Overwatch and Heroes of the Storm (which were my main games) raised my APM | ||

It's still a very loose metric of skill, you can check EPM in replays which tries to ignore spam but it's still not perfect. | ||

Like I enter a BO (with constant worker building) and I will only enter at which times / or worker what is build or when a worker is skipped. To test it? Building positions walk times dont matter, it can be averarged for 3 second walk time like that... and distract building cost... Thanks | ||

I know of a replay page being a bit active the r/starcraft subbreddit is good, along with r/allthingsprotoss, r/allthingszerg, r/allthingsterran for race specific topics. Just stay away from battlenet forums. nothing good comes from there. | ||

I just know that 2-1-1 was a popular build before, which was 2 rax 1 factory 1 starport. I'm assuming the 2-2-2 is in combination with some kind of all in | ||
