Are there any good PvR all-in's to be safe from whatever variety of abusive opening and end the game quickly?

if you mean crazy 1base allins then walled natural into proxy robo or proxy double robo can be fun pvt and pvp, but 1 basing just sucks if you're playing zerg so 2base them instead. if it's pvp make sure you aren't being 4gated before you proxy anything though. but if you are only talking about 2base allins then you have plenty of time to wall the natural and do any 2base build you choose after scouting their race

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:

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:

Do I need to open with two gates early in PvP? 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

>can be deleted<
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.

Is the ingame APM thingy accurate?

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

The ingame clock used to be ~1.4 faster than real time, that changed in lotv and resulted in an increase of APM for everyone.
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.

Hi, is there something like a BO player?

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

amazon prime offers a abathur-package for free. I like to have it IF I get an amazon prime account without giving my Credit card. I pay DAZN and Netflix with gift cards all the time.

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.
Quick, think of some pithy cliche and toss it here

My favorite thing about the b.net forums is that nearly every topic (and reply) is downvoted into the negative!
I love to play and watch Starcraft! I love Liquid Hero, Polt, and Hyun

If the term haven't changed since I played sc2 last, many a moon ago, it means 2 barracks, 2 factories, 2 starports

that's not a build though and would make absolutely no sense in any matchup? i'm as confused as him. i've never heard of 2-2-2...?

Never heard of it either. 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
