Well reading the strategy forum (As long as you read the posting guidelines first!) is an excellent place to start.

How long must it elapse before we can post things without a spoiler?

I'm really curious what the real word means, my guess is something that is used often such as "but" or "perhaps" . It might actually be two or more words that sound as one when spoken in a fast manner too, so I have no idea.
So if someone that knows Korean can enlighten me, I'd be happy.
If that's what you're hearing, it is "I agree." or "It seems that way." Basically, agreement to the person who just talked.
Nice, thanks! I just wondered a lot because that is one of the words I can recognize and used so often.

Oh god, I again lost to a protoss who did something I really didn't fucking expect. He was building cannons on his base a filling holes with zealots. So I guesses he was going to turtle, I take a third. Then, I see 8 zealots going out, I plant a Roach Warren (that I had a bit forgotten). It finishes just when the zelots arrive, but I am fucking supply blocked and my two spines got murdered by the zealots, then he kills my expand. With 8 fucking zealots... Then he finds my 3rd and I'm all dead. Makes me want to play LoL.

Hy!
I am EU server player. I want with HOTS on KR server playing. This is probably? The ping is not too high?
|
any way to watch old patch replays on 1.3.3.5 ??
|
Zoda you could have built your roach warren earlier, pulled your drones, made banelings...
constantqt: Uh.. You can watch a replay from any patch afaik O_o
Welcome csana. You're the only user from Hungary that I know of. Unfortunately it will probably be noticably laggy to play the KR server but it really depends on your internet connection.

From my experience (Germany with a 16mbit/2mbit connection) The ping to US is two to three times less than the ping to KR. (130 to 300). Your connection looks pretty bad and I don't think it's worth to buy a KR account.

Why doesn't every zerg play more often like IdrA in game 4 of IdrA vs Axslav?
Ling/hydra shits all over 2 base toss timings and stargate play, and allows you to get mutas with no danger of dying because of investing in spire. And Muta/ling is a nightmare of every toss. You can't win base race because zerg have more bases and faster units, and you can't catch his army while zerg just rapes your base/mineral line and still can come back to defend in time if needed. ling into hydra into muta is SOOOO strong

If a VOD is availabe could you link it? I was watching IPL and missed it. Gut reaction? Collosus/Forcefield lol.

Because if Protoss defends well, then you wind up behind. IdrA was behind on economy the entire time, and never got his 3rd base running until right before it was taken down. Axslav was caught in the middle of the map with most of his units and without blink the mutas did a lot of damage. Then one of his reinforcing collosus was picked off. Axslav, playing the game correctly, could have won.
Mutas are nice, but take a long time to get a critical number and they don't have the firepower of corrupters to take down collosus and cost a lot of gas. And they don't do too well in lower numbers in real fights.

The second protoss leaves his base you can counter with lings, that's why you can focus more on economy if you can judge the situation well and see that protoss have enaugh units/production to defend push.
If Axslav didn't expose himself by leaving the base IdrA would be free to take entire map, which is the main strenght of ling/muta, and if he didn't leave the base soon it would be 3 base vs 5 base (with gold)

Yeah, I need to see the VOD before I say anything concrete but it sounds a lot like Axslav made mistakes that Idra capitalized on, not a composition/build order win

I base my opinion, not only on mentioned match, but also personal experience, and when i face this style on ladder i'm thinking about switching to zerg... fortunately it isn't popular.

Didn't see this one addressed quite yet.
I feel if it's been 3-4 days, then you should be able to do it. If you are someone who wants to watch something, but haven't gotten around to it within 4 days, then i personally feel like you've forfeited the right to be offended when someone spoils it.
Granted, that's for things like game results & tourney results. If it's something like books / movies / etc, i feel like you should always spoiler something that's a big plot revelation.
+ Show Spoiler [star wars] +
Edit: hooray ling

At least within 48 hours if you don't spoiler results people will hate you.
Dariusz maybe I'm looking at this the wrong way. I'll try it out with some practice partners and random custom games!
