i need 3 basic/solid builds - one for each matchup. (im terran) just 3 BOs i can work on, refine, and just get solid in different situations.
the liquipedia is full of strategies so im kinda confused. i'd appreciate some recommendations !
I'd actually recommend finding a bunch of replays of your favourite, most consistent player and copy them. I'm talking multiple replays of them playing in all matchups and study their timing. Aim to duplicate their builds.
The key here isn't to become a carbon copy of them (though if that works, why not?) but to get a feel for why they make such decisions. Once you have their style down you can branch outwards and study other professional players.
This worked incredibly well for me in my War3 days and turned my worst matchups in to my best. It really forces you to breakdown the matchups in to a fundamental checklist.
Hey guys!So, after reading the changelog of patch 1.3.3 I was wanted to ask you how do u think that the whole Warpgate Technology researching time increase and the unit production time reduction on Gateways, is going the affect the 4-Gate strategy, not only in a PvP matchup and in every possible matchup.

its not about studying many pros styles, in order to say, yeah i can do that. its about getting a feel from one pro that inspired you, and making the build your own, to develop your own style.
So really I'm not sure if this deserves a topic or even should be posted here, but anyway: The replay site www.sc-replay.com is the one i use when posting replays but for some reason I cannot access it anymore on just my PC, i can go on the site on different computers, but just not mine. My internet connection is fine, but i was wondering if anyone else had this problem? Or what might be the reason why?
Is it really impossible for Protoss to spend all their Nexus energy on chrono boost? Early on Day9 would criticize Protoss for not spending their energy, but as time went on that went away as a bit of an extreme way to judge a Protoss player's skill. However I see Protoss in tournaments even MC irc having Nexus with half energy or more
Is it really hard to spend it all when your on multiple bases or are Protoss not good at doing that yet?
No its not impossible. Yes you'd have to be unbelievably good.
Up until 6 minutes in we all know what cb's would be used for. But after that you could theoretically spend your chronoboosts on upgrades, stargate units, robo units, warpgates and probe production.
Omg thank you Thorzain for being so awesome. I've been looking for a solid mech style to use (and copy heheh to learn with) and you've done all this cool stuff! So baller, so handsome. =]
If Huk goes against Idra, he should scout his base with a hallucinated void ray. Personally I think Idra is a phenominal player but his manners are just silly.
HUK IF YOU READ THIS DO IT!
I don't consider this spam also, if you haven't seen the replay it was a great match and you should watch it.
Why do not Blizzard make it so you can start a new game anytime while you are watching a replay and the conditions of the game is equal to the state of the replay at that moment. This would make practice easier and tourney-discs less controversial, I do not see why this isnt implemented? Someone willing to explain the difficulty in doing something like this?
Hi guys! I have a question: Is there someone who has figured out a way to switch the music in Starcraft 2? I personally find the zerg music in this game dreadful,and would much rather listen to the Brood War soundtrack. Seems to me it would be possible to use a custom MPQ.
