did anyone else get the feeling that dignitasnani just 1 base/4 gated through the whole thing with his crisp timings? i just watched his replays and they were all pretty much <10 min rush build.. i mean congrats to him but seems a bit sad that all my fav players either dint get a chance to face him or died to his 4 gates/proxies.. . im sad. is it okay to be indifferent to a player who is cheesy a bit. he deserves it but i feel like sc2 winners should be better than that.. just saying.. sorry if this seems offensive ....

If not even one player was capable of beating him, even if some of his games were a bit cheesy, then he deserved the gold, end of story.

Not to mention the only time he lost a single GAME was during the finals match

This is so wrong.
He played nexus first, fast stargate vs Select, fast expand vs Drewbie, etc. Its totally wrong if you say he only 4gated. He played a lot of PvPs, so no surprise to see 4gates there.
Its true that he cheeses more than other players, but thats makes him so dangerous and difficult to play: The fact that he can 1.) cheese, 2.) 1base, 3.) macro.
If you think there should be no cheese in SC2, please blame the game, not the players.

ya he is good. i m not denying that. i honestly could not see him play vs select and drewbie since replays are not up. i dunno i just love nony and machine and was disappointed by those games. not trying to take anything away from nani . i wish liquid and root people cheese more or be the aggressor more often ... not get mad at me. just my opinion .. ty for the reply ...

Ty as well. I'm not mad . Just wanted to clarify.
I have little respect for players who only cheese or only 1base. But they are easy readable and won't be successful in the long run (e.g. BitByBit). Nani isn't that kind of player. He often chooses to cheese or 1base just because its so strong (blame the game).
That`s why Idra`s style fails, he only wants to play macro games. TLO fast expands vs him, kills him with a timing attack because Idra still only droned and people say Idra got cheesed -.-.

How do you play in MLG? Do you just buy a player pass and get thrown into the Open Bracket and have to fight your way through it? Or do you have to qualify online?
I want to go back to being weird. I like being weird. Weird is all I've got. That and my sweet style.

Spanishiwa is putting infestors to pretty good use in his stream. He does a pressure...

As for injects, I replaced backspace with caps lock.

This way I can access all the hotkeys with my left hand without accelerating carpel tunnel's syndrome :O

edit: Spanishiwa's thread if you were curious


I replaced Backspace with an extra mouse thumb button. No carpal tunnel problem so far. It works out pretty good. I just thought I'd mention it in case someone else wanted to try it out.

What do you think of this idea?


This is an awsome idea i wish people would start doing this. It is probably to hard writing though..

I just have a few questions about the game (they aren't noobish) and most are hypotheticals.

If a marine uses stim (which is a drug that is injected), then why does the gun shoot faster?

If banelings can roll, why do Terrans at the top of a ramp fear baneling busts so much?

After the vortex nerf of patch 1.3, will banelings in the vortex suicide right after the vortex ends or stay idle?

If the "normal" game speed is called Faster, then why is normal slower than what we are used to?

I have a small question, and I am really sorry if this is not the right place to post it, just seemed like it didn't need its own thread (I am new here and frustrating people is not what I am interested in ).

I picked up SC2 the day it came out, and it is the first real RTS I have played. I played a little in season 1 with Protoss, and got to know the ropes, though I only played about 12 games total in season 1.

Now with the release of season 2, I am interested in learning to play Zerg, but am not succeeding with it so far. I have played matches, and lost all but one of them. I am thinking of going back to Protoss just because I know the race a little better, but I am more interested in playing Zerg in reality. I am just getting frustrated doing nothing but losing.

I would just like some opinions on which race I should choose. Should I go with Protoss because of my short RTS/Starcraft backround, or just try and stick it out with Zerg and hopefully pick up on it sooner or later?

Thanks for all the help everyone, and sorry if this seems like I can't make a decision on my own.

Oops, posted in the March thread right before it closed. Go me!

Anywho,
This seems like a good place; I don't think it deserves it's own thread, so...

I've noticed in the GSL (first) that during the battle, the observer could lower the UI (14:40 of MC versus morrow g1 http://www.gomtv.net/2011championship/vod/64030 ). I thought it was a mod that the GSL had done. However, I was watching the MLG stream earlier and saw it there too. Since I'm just now noticing it, I assume it came in with some of the other observer changes? I looked in the hotkeys list, and I don't see anything that might be it under the Observer or the UI tab. Does anyone have any information on this?


It should be Crtl+w. It's in this video around 4:00 http://sc2.fm/video/38797



Ctrl+W it was. Thank you very much!
Show me a completely smooth operation and I'll show you a cover up. Real boats rock.

I have a question about workers and expansions.

When you build a natural and migrate probes to it, how many should you send? Also, do you keep producing probes in your main Nexus after? Are those rallied to the main still or rallied to the natural?
