Also, on a brief side note. Colossus + Void Rays = Win, apparently. I had a roughly 160 food army of stalkers, zlots and immortals against someone with about 8 void rays and 3 colossi with a few gateways units and he WRECKED me. I even had 2-2-1 upgrades where he was 1-0-0 ground and 0-0-0 air. Something seems wrong with this picture to me. | ||

I've even seen a diamond player, who I beat. Why is it giving me these opponents but not ranking me up? I'm still winning most of my games, but its not putting me into the next league. What gives?

If you beat gold and platinum it wont be sure until you go 50/50 or close to that. I was in a similiar situation not long ago, was beating plat and some diamond players as gold but didn't rank up. Then i finally got the promotion after loosing like 5 in a row (vs plat) | ||

Building a macro hatch with an extra queen as a solution to missing injects in order to make up for "lost" production, would this be alright? or is this learning wrong? im really a casual player but would like to get into platinum and stay there.  | ||

if your money floats high ingame, say yourself "damn i fucked it up again" and throw down the extra hatch, there is no point in then not doing it and loose the game with many minerals in the bank with you just not being able to keep up the production for learning purposes. | ||

I don't know anything about their scouting or DQ in particular, but one general reason you'd scout cross positions first is that you plan to play differently in close positions than in far ones. That means you need to know as fast as possible whether they're close or far, and scouting one of the two close positions doesn't tell you that. Scouting the only far position does. | ||

Let me preface this by saying that I live in a really small town in Montana. Not many people play SC here and as hard as I've tried, I've only managed to get a few people to play casually. The problem I seem to be having is a lack of support/someone to motivate me to get better. I've always had a huge friend-base while playing MMOs and SSFIV is huge amongst my friends (which I also compete at) but SC2 is feeling pretty empty atm. I'm looking for people to not only practice with (I'm stuck in Platinum due to poor but slowly improving mechanics), but also to talk strategy with, general SC, video games etc...really just want a core group of e-friends (sounds soooo sad....) who also take the game seriously to help me learn, to match my enthusiasm for the game so that I feel the need to practice more etc...I'm just better with friendly competition I guess. Starcraft can feel pretty lonely when you just ladder all day, trying to improve but no one to talk about it with or even brag about my new accomplishments to. Day9 daily #100 really made me realize this. Anyone out there feel similar or feel like helping a fellow nerd out? Even chatting about on here would help me greatly, thanks! | ||

I was wondering if someone could tell me if there is a way that i can check my win/loss ratio verse certain races, i have a general idea at the moment but it would be cool if i could check the numbers. I think Sc2gears can do that for you. I dont use it myself though, but fairly sure that it can. http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=124689 | ||

(As always.) I can't comment on any specifics as of yet. So it seems he just meant that they are just keeping their options open, and not actually considering GSL maps | ||

Why create a rift in the gaming community, and basically seperate the players that are competing in your OWN tournament, from everyone else. It just doesnt make any sense at all imo. | ||
