MC is still considered the best. Best PvP player though is probably inca.

Probably MC, but Alicia is gaining on him very rapidly.

I'm looking for replays/vods of pro players pvz where P goes FE into fast stargate and denies zergs fast 3rd with a voidray followed by phoenixes. I feel like I've seen that 1000 times in pro matches, but I can't recall a specific match.

I'm also looking for some pure 6-gate pvz games. Like cruncher vs idra TSL on Crevasse.

I'm looking for as pure and decisive P-wins as possible.

Alicia is a monster at PvP if the new GSL vods are any indication.

I'd really love to see a Naniwa vs. Alicia showmatch, then I'd be able to decisively say who has the best PvP in the world.

Although LAN latency is not possible without LAN. (Not hating on blizz, just pointing this out).

Actually, they are! There's a bit of overlap in skill between leagues. People in low silver are probably maintaining a ~50% win average, but the people at the top of bronze league are moving upwards, or they're mid silver material but missing some critical thing (response to cheese, etc.) that's keeping them from the next level.
Nevermind.

One thing I have to ask and I'm pretty sure it doesn't warrant it's own thread...

It's widely accepted that the 9 overlord is just so, so slightly better than the extractor trick.

But what about going 9 overlord, starting your 10th drone and then extractor tricking to get your 11th drone started a little bit faster?

I haven't seen anything about that.

The thing is when the overlord pops you just have 100 mins to build 2 more drones with your two larva, you're 12 drone will be delayed if you did what you said, but Im not sure if its worth it or not.
Counting the cost of canceling the extracter and the lost mining time probbally counter any gain you get from getting the drone faster

Has anyone had experience with changing their Starcraft 2 Battle.net "real name"?

If so, what were the documents and things required (what do they ask for)?

This question might be a bit silly, but I've seen in a few streams a different model/skin of a few structures like the extractors, the spinecrawlers or even the banelings. For instance, the baneling's acid is exactly like your player color or the spinecrawler has a circle around its base with the player's color too.

Are they custom models/skins or there's any way to use them?

Jinro has almost hit rock-bottom on his recent slide from success. Ever since his first amazing run deep in the third GSL open, his results have been RO4, RO16, RO16, RO32, and demotion to code A. Hopefully the format that first propelled him to stardom will be the format that reinvigorates his GSL career. He is in somewhat of a TvZ slump, having gone 1-6 in his past seven matches against zerg, but his opponent definitely seems weak enough to all but guarantee a strong start in this tournament. The only BOx Line has ever won as a Korean pro was a 2-0 victory in the second Open over the protoss player Sage.

Kyrix is one of those highly stylistic players that is extremely difficult to predict. His probably of winning depends much more on his opponent’s style of play than on race statistics and past performance. We’ve seen him 2-0 great players and flailingly lose to relative unknowns all based on how his strategies mesh with the plans made against him. Banbans, on the other hand, has yet to beat a solid player convincingly. He has yet to prove that he can hang with the big boys. Both competitors are 3-7 in their past ten matches, so we’ll see who is able to break out of their slump and perhaps even up his past10 record with a 2-0 win.

Both players have horrendous records in this matchup so far in their careers with win rates at around 30%. However, Junwi has 0-2’d out of every single GSL event he has participated in except one which he 2-2’d out of, whereas Virus has at least made it to Code S and even got past the group stage once. Virus seems the very likely winner in this match.

Coca had a break out Code A performance this past season, making it to Code S and helping demote Jinro to the lower league the process. But Nada has made more RO8 appearances than just about anyone, and it’s hard to see the living legend going down in the first round to a Code S neophyte. Both players are around 50% in this matchup, but Nada has been playing against much more difficult players, and certainly seems to have a huge edge in this match.

i disagree about jinro hitting rock bottom, he has already hit it in his up and down matches. His games tonight prove that he's gunna come back soon in a very big way.

From what we saw tonight the ultra safe macro terran is still there and with a few better decisions and working out some of the kinks we'll see the gorilla terran rise again once more.
can you image if he went home after he took out the gold hatch on beach? He would of had a significant advantage, he would of been safe from any attacks or counters, got his up grades up he Forced units from a zerg player in the middle of droning and killed a base and some creep.
and he could of done it virtually for free.

once he finds his rhythm i have absolute confidence jinro will dominate once more.

Someone pointed out that more people have been using the macro style that Jinro seems like he basically "invented" and I think maybe this made it easier for them to figure out but also some people just have bad nights. I personally felt like HuK was falling off his pedestal for a while and after watching his stream recently he seems to be doing insanely well even with just random ladder matches as well as GSL. I'm sure Jinro can do exactly the same thing, he's awesome and I can't wait to see him start owning it up again.

Im looking for a high level player to analyze terran replays(currently looking at KazEmpire). Masters or GM would be preferred im Number #1 in plat right now which isn't good but I just started to play Terran. We would use skype or vent.

What do you guys think of KazEmpires play seems solid

Please message me if you wanna watch replays

Ok here it goes - can't decide where to put this one and it's sort of Sc2 related.

What's ur opinion about emmbeding/restreaming other players Sc2 streams on your website without asking them for permission? IMO it's kind unethical? Or it's totally fine as you can't block stream adverts and they will get more viewers by doing that?
