EPTto Lvl. 13: 165,000
Level 12 right now, doing the 4v4 strat. Ends the game around 12-13 minutes for me, with about 50-60k exp. Ugh, I don't know if I can make it...I thought I'd never grind/farm ever again until this challenge came along.

The fastest I've gotten is Hydra spam and that still takes me to like 18-19 minutes due to the stubborn AI or is everyone just quitting at the xp reduction? Those last few minutes of a huge army busting everything down just seems too easy to pass up. Yeah not worth it since it's 77% reduction which is a very very tiny amount. I'm getting 14 minutes as Protoss btw, Zerg you should be getting 10-12 minutes. | ||

I usually push out at 14 to kill them at 16 30 because after the 50k its 77% reduction and that is a bit too much =( | ||

BO: 10gas 9pool Extractor trick to get 11 drones Research Lair Ovie + 3 drones Infestor pit + Queen Drones Research Hive Constantly ask res from AI (2k each and don't wait for AI to fully provide them, just cancel and request regularly) Ultralisk cavern Put down 4 more hatches - one in expand/get 4 queens/research ling speed/adrenal glands (you can start this before hive is finished depending on resources available) Use most larva for overlords When ultralisk cavern done - should be around 7:30 - train 6 ultras and start chitinous plating Drone a bit/make more overlords/ultras/lings Attack when chitinous plating is done Dump extra minerals into overlords for more exp, when you are 200/200. You should win game a bit after exp reduction kicks in. | ||

The most annoying part is keeping my money low by building auxiliary structures until the gg happens. I start running out of places on the map to plant bases. =( | ||

As far as I know it's not a bug. They increased the XP requirement for each level, so people got XP taken from them. | ||

For example if I level zerg to 30 do I get the lurker portrait or do I have to level all three races to 30 to get the lurker portrait? | ||

orry if this has been answered before but can you get a single portrait by leveling a single race to level 30? Or do you have to level all three races to 30 to get the portraits? For example if I level zerg to 30 do I get the lurker portrait or do I have to level all three races to 30 to get the lurker portrait? First, there are no Lurker portraits. Second, if you're leveling up as Zerg, you will have more Zerg portraits. If you level up as Terran, you will have all terran portraits, same for protoss. Level up as each race and get rewards. | ||

I mean the exclusive beta portrait that ports over to the full game. I realize that you get more portraits from the race that you mainly play. That's not what I'm asking about. | ||

All new portraits are rewards for leveling per each race | ||
