You know what I realized about this patch? Not only do you need 3 pylons to block the ramp, but T can't do the supply barracks at the bottom of the map to stop scouting. This should help Z with the 2 rax push.

Can someone confirm this?



This is what im so angry about.


...no, I still don't get it. Why? 2 rax is the dumbest strat in the game, and that's not even zerg qq it's just the truth.


The point of blocking the bottom of the ramp was to prevent scouting.
Whats so hard to understand about that?


I just don't get why you think you're entitled to be able to do that. If they don't want you doing it you can't.


So according to you, players aren't entitled to use any advantage that they can to win?

Does the Masters league effect the other leagues as well? I'm rank 8 in Bronze with 1300+ points and am facing silver + gold players, will I be ranked up at the next win?


I'm guessing it might? I started out in bronze and jumped up to Platinum in about a month. Been stuck in Platinum for about another month and I only get matched up against other Plat or Gold players. Got onto the new patch today to play 2 games. First was against rank 1 Plat then a diamond. First diamond I ever played on ladder Hopefully everyone gets shifted up. It seems like there are something like 40% bronze players and I always thought the leagues should be a bit more equal than the skew we have.


So the lower leagues get a little boost from top 5% diamond moving up? lol blizzard

What does that have to do with the fact that you can no longer do it

Why don't you ask the guy who posted it like I did?
Only thing I said was I was pissed off about it, then a bunch of people with reading comprehension problems decided to reply to it with anything that wasn't relevant to my initial post.

you cant use two 2x2 buildings, like the pylon, the bunker is 3x3, but you need an scv to build a bunker which can be killed off, while you cant stop a pylong from building unless you kill it

I am a 2650 diamond player, and just got matched up against a master league player who was slightly favored...

So the threshold is very very close to where I am.

Did you read the OP? Did you read ANY information on masters league? Masters is based on MMR and not points.

This matches my experience, I am around 2650 now (after playing poorly and losing a bunch last night so my MMR is probably a bit deflated at the moment) and several of my recent opponents are in masters but I am not.

Do you really feel that denying zerg scouting with that is a necessity or good for the game? Scouting needs to be easier all around, and for zerg's especially since they're the most vulnerable to hidden tech and timing pushes.
i was driving down the road this november eve and spotted a hitchhiker walking down the street. i pulled over and saw that it was only a tree. i uprooted it and put it in my trunk. do trees like marshmallow peeps? cause that's all i have and will have.

Seriously...what's up with the stupid icon for the Master(s) league? I thought this was the first blueprint and dropped in favor for this one: http://www.pinoystarcraft.com/showthread.php?302-Master-s-League-Icon (the one you can see on the dark screenshot) which looks a thousand times better.

The current lone star just looks so empty and unfinished. It has no frame at all and even the lower spikes are cut-off. It's a shame. This thing makes you feel like a recruit instead of a "Master". I'd prefer the diamond icon anytime over this mess.

One motivation for me to get into diamond was that the icon looks far better than all the other ones. I can absolutely not say this about the Masters league icon. I really hope they are going to replace it by the one shown in the screenshot.

Just my personal opinion. Does anyone actually like it?

And is it now "Masters League" or "Master League"?
