I don't know whats wrong with me. I am a protoss (silver leaguer :D ). I play this game for fun and generally play 4 v 4 (i am gold in that lol) or 4v4 monobattles. Lately I have this addiction of only killing my enemies workers. So I have been offracing as terran and I get a strange build with I build 1 rax, and then 2 --3 factories with 2 reactors and 1 techlab, go mass blue flamed hellions and suicide them to kill all the enemy workers(literally all of the 4 enemies). I build like 20-30 hellions lol.and use move command to get into their mineral line.

Now the funny thing. after killing all their wprkers. I just leave the game. I dont know whats wrong with me. killing drones is my fav part, since they make a screaming noise while dying..I really need to get over this addiction. I remember 2 months back I was so serious abt 1v1 that i used to watch vods and prac like crazy.. Damn this

What are peoples thoughts on the new infestor craze? Personally im not quite sure how to treat it because you invest so heavily in infestors it prevents lots of other tech....is it truly as strong as everyones claiming or is it just the latest fad?

They've been popular for a while for good reason. It fills holes in Zergs composition that they were complaining about. While it isn't a 100% get infestors every time yo thing- it is more uncommon to regret having infestors than not having them.

I don't know what you mean by fad, it's been gaining popularity ever since 1.3.0 back in March.

Ashes you're nuts. But if you're having fun then that's more important than any league placement!

Do "Saved games" from other people work now for achievements? I am a Protoss player and cannot get all hard achievements on my own. Nor brutal wins.

Getting back to this.
+ Show Spoiler +
Just watched (T)Byun vs (T)LosirA in the GSL July Semi-Finals. I know Byun kind of screwed up in the early game, but Terran is (at the current state of the game) pretty much forced to do damage versus Zerg in the early game. Zerg however seem to become more and more resiliant to that type of play. And if that fails Terran is pretty much dead, despite beautiful play.


To come to the point. While I myself never played SC:BW, I've heard a lot of talk about Terran's situation before (T)Flash stepped on the scene, and I am afraid SC2 is entering that phase right now. Are we in need of an SC2 equivalent of Flash? Only hope I see is mech-play, any thoughts on this?


Hello TeamLiquid btw. First content post.

Edit:
+ Show Spoiler +

@TLPD-ize: why does TLPD show Terran as LosirA's main race? Or is the info BW-exclusive?

You never really appreciate what you have, until it's gone.

I'm hoping the new maps will all turn out to be okay, but from the looks of a couple of them, may turn out otherwise. Then again, I play Terran. To abuse the ledges and corners or play it properly for when/if they get patched out?

Let me put it this way. (Zerg) I had DQ Slag and Scrap vetoed. The only actual difference between seasons is whichever map makes me grind my teeth the less included and metal gone!


Also abuse ledges, bunker rush into hellion into banshee, take half your scvs with you and mule up like all hell. Win, don't be honorable. Don't let my whine persuade you to underplay your power.

Anyone know when expansion gets out? :O

Also, I have never regretted using infestors in a game, just get glands and mind control and you will be able to beat almost any composition (mech-contol thros and/or siege) (bio-fungle growth is win) (ghosts-avoid them as much as possible, use burrow and pop up and use energy before enemy reacts to it, and then burrow and run. Engage at the same time)

The only real threat I see to infestors are HT's, but with some good micro, you should be able to keep them from getting feedbacked.

Here is a nice vid of infestor pwnage ^^

1. A lot. For more detail check patch notes please.
2. None, its more or less balanced, although some people still claim that nightelves are overpowered
3. Nope, there isnt. You might wanna learn a variety of cheese, but i still doubt it will bring you into masters quickly.

If it were that easy, most people would be in masters and have touney victories

That being said, there are some standard build orders for every race that you would do well to learn and just practise over and over until you can do them with your eyes closed. Whilst they may not give you an edge over everyone else, there's nothing wrong with playing standard and safe.

Just have a look at the build orders on Liquipedia and watch some VoDs, maybe even some Day[9] if you're feeling rusty

You then don't deserve to get those achievements, do you? Why would you like to show off achievements which you don't actually got?
You don't choose to play zerg. The zerg choose you.

What he also wants to say with this is, no, achievements have nothing to do with savegames.
