CAN somebody PM me and please explain how to chat to an opponent after the game and possibly add him as a friend? I've been googling and trying to figure this out for the past couple days and I cannot find anything.
I don't want to add and chat to a RL friend, but an opponent. Somebody did this to me so I know it's possible. And also while we are on the topic, how do you check an opponent's profile to find their league status ect...

Thanks alot!

Do you have to buy premium to watch more than one free on demand stream from blizzcon? Or does it just not work right now? Ok support just asked if I had a ticket then I said no and then they said then they were afraid so. So can I get confirmation that we're only allowed to watch one free stream? That's kind of ridiculous if true.

Hope i posted this in the right thread :S

I'm basicly wondering if anybody knows where i could found some "original" strategies on PvP , i checked the strategy forums, but didn't found anything on that, and i did a search on PvP or protoss strategies, but it just gives me PvT or PvZ or something completely random.
Any help would be apreciated. ^ ^

What do you define as "original"?

You mean ones that are only being done against Protoss and not against Zerg or Terran?

I recall seeing a chart that showed how each Protoss build measured up to every other Protoss build. I don't remember what thread that was in though, and it was quite some time ago

How do I play ZvZ without going mass Roach? All of my last Zerg games have been against a player who 1 base Roaches, then pushes at some random time. I can never defend, because Roaches wreck Spine Crawlers. When I do defend, they transition into Burrow Roach, which is ridiculously annoying, or they transition into Infestor/Roach, which shuts down anything. Any help is welcome.

Is there a way for you to ignore people inside the game? A lot of team games have annoying idiots that I want to ignore but I can't find the function (if it exists). Anyone know?

To counter roaches try speedlings, they can surround very nicely especially if you catch him on open ground.

I can't believe the game's been out for this long and there's still no chat channels, cross region support, or the ability to watch reps with people.

If you want to play on SEA/US servers. You can still play on EU I guess.

Sooo, I'll admit I'm just a lurker and I haven't played that many games, but I'd like to ask a serious question. Does anyone else think this most recent patch made Zerg a tad imba? I mean, I know they've been needing a buff for some time, but I think they pushed it a little far. For instance, practically every building gained a large percentage of health, and roaches got increased range. I noticed most of the complaints prior to the patch were centered around the reaper and early aggression in general, so I can understand the Terran nerf; but how does the massive hp buff keep that balanced? I think it was a matter of one or the other on the concept board, and masses of complaints pushed blizzard to just stick them both in. Not to say zerg is unstoppable, as I've seen plenty of losses for both good and bad zergs. However, I've noticed that the bigger names in the Zerg roster are now winning almost undefeated in tournies? That seems like a cry for some balance attention to me. I'm not sure how I'd fix it, but I think if this zerg winning trend continues, the Balance team's gonna take another look at the patch, and I'd expect to see a tiny nerf sometime soon.

Another example: Just heard Artosis in the GSL say "Only had 1 ZvZ last season", but I believe it's clear that we're going to be in for a huge rush of zerg players from now until any other race gets some sort of buff or zerg gets nerfed back a few inches. Anyway, just my thoughts.

got a question considering the "fairness" of MMR

mainly i played team games so far and there i am high diamond in all of them basically. sometimes i feel the urge to play some 1v1. atm i am at 1000 diamond with a decent winrate and still tons of bonuspool. all the time i faced and also beat a lot of people with like 600-800 more rating (mostly only have 1v1 rating) and the game says it was an even match, thus giving me around only 12+12=24 points, but i already lose like 15.

so basically this means to me, that its basically impossible for me like reaching 1800+, because my team rating influences my MMR way too much. so i get punished for playing team games, while others only play 1v1 and its easier for them to get a high ranking 1v1. doesnt sound fair to me tbh.

thoughts?

I think you can email Blizzard support and they can switch your region for you.

I think they said at Blizzcon, that MMR in one league influences only placement matches in others and nothing else. So it's your 1v1 MMR that fucks you up, don't ask me why, I have it even worse. When I got to diamond, I played people with twice as many points as me all the time, with maybe 50% win ratio. Then took a month break and started to play again now. I'm at 500 points and play people around 1500 all the time, what's even worse, it's usually even match (though skillwise it really is even . Even after 5 losses automatch gives me guy at 1600 with 10 win streak and says I'm slightly favored (-15 right there). Overally, I think it does good job at evaluating skill, but it's really tough to climb up this way, especially if you don't have a lot of time.

What is the best response to mass muta as terran?

I usually go thor with a few marines, but it never seems to be enough. He has like 20 or so mutas, and when he uses magic box my thors do almost nothing. The obvious answer would be to build a bunch of marines, but then he makes 10 banelings and destroys my whole army.

Also, he forces me to place 15 turrets around my base if i wanna be safe, otherwise he just goes around picking off tech labs and such. I cant really move out because i know that either

a) My entire base dies to the mutas
b) he wins in a big battle because i dont have enough AA.

It seems that the only really viable AA that terran has against mutalisks is thors, which isnt really that good when he knows how to magic box (any silver player and up). As i said making more than 10 marines in TvZ just seems like a bad idea. Also, it takes alot of time to make 5+ thors and 20+ marines, and by the time i finally feel safe, the zerg will be on 5 bases and have a bunch of banelings/zerglings

Yes, i know "dont let him get 20 mutas in the first place", but i'm just wondering how to deal with this.

I've searched in the strategy forum, but all i found was old threads (like 2-3 months old), which i dont really care about. Also, it was hard to find a thread specifically about mass muta, and not just the same old 6-10 muta harass that we all know and hate. But if anyone could link me to an up to date thread about this issue, i'd be happy :D
If wishes were horses we'd be eating steak right now.
