I have also heard that MKP and KawaiiRice have both been invited. Edit: Heres a picture with their actual names, but  PhoeNix is incorrect.![[image loading]](http://images.readmore.de/img/contentgfx/12530.jpg) People on the forums still cant seem to find a picture fit. People are predicting HuK for the last photo, just unknown to which picture. TLPD:  iNcontroLNightEnDRetNaNiwa KasHerOSockeStephanoWhite-RaHasuObsGrubbyGoOdyMCThorZaINClouDReaLPhoeNixThats 9 Protoss, 5 Terran, and 3 Zerg (if the TLPD links are correct). Most likely to be invited: HuKIdrA [Broodwar link, too lazy to fix XD]The one after cloud has to be Dimaga. | ||

All you have to do is press F2, box them, press F3 and click a mineral patch and most of the probes will get away. Sure, I guess you could kill a few pylons but isn't 25 workers better? o_o;; | ||

Jinro, is there ever a situation where you prefer to drop marauders over marines? If you're going for buildings, 4 marauders do comparable DPS to 8 marines and unload faster, but is it worth it? | ||

I think if he can SEE you unloading units you are not nearly as likely to actuly kill the tech structure anyway. Also, marines scale from 6 damage to 9 with attack upgrades (150% damage) but marauders only scale from 20 to 26 (130%) so you should include that in your calculations. Marines with smart fire are also superior at killing probes by far, if you get the opportunity you can kill an entire mineral line in mere seconds, where it is harder for marauders to do damage if they are not shooting buildings. | ||

Drops should be more effective on the bigger maps, but we'll have to see. Also, terran is the hardest to reinforce with as protoss has warp-in and zerg has super fast units (except for BLs). | ||

How about hellions before patch? xD And can't hellions run faster than stim marines? If they react fast enough can't you just pull away your workers? Or is the point that with marines you can still snipe some of the pylons like the ones on the border of his base? | ||

Basically open normal, 13/14 gate get zealot and 2 stalkers chronoed out and harass/scout with them around 5-5:30, retreat as warpgate kicks in (not essential to the build but helps delay greedy 4 gate builds) start sentry as 2nd stalker finishes, get 2nd gas and two more gates as you move out. if i see or suspect essentially anything besides a 4 gate all in, put down a stargate, then eventually a robo. tech to hallucination and take a 2nd as you feel comfortable/after you hold first push army composition ends up being (ratio) 10 zealots, 5-7 sentrys, 2-3 voidrays (maybe a couple phoenix if needed), 3-5 immortals hallucinate zealots (or a couple vr's if opponent intent on picking them off), snipe observers, and forcefield behind stalkers. I've been doing really really well with this in platinum. occasionally i'll die to a well executed four gate or tons of phoenix's but usually can just ff the ramp and reinforce. This build has been crushing the standard stalker heavy builds, especially once they waste money on a few immortals or colli. any advice on how this might go in the higher leagues? | ||

I'm just not sure how to improve and keep climbing on ladder, now around mid master with this current tilt and keep losing more and more. Sorry for the rant! | ||

Locking up is a bit extreem though. Also it baffles me when people say they have the same cpu when all the first person mentions is 2.4 GHz. There can be huge variations depending on the kind of cpu. | ||

Usually i play economy style, so i take my natural fast and end up with all my units at the bottom when suddenly that happens. Should i just build my depos by the edges so i can react fast enough? even if i do, sometimes its so fast theres no time to react. Any advice? Yes, if that happens it is simply an autowin. You need to have enough marines on the high ground to kill the sentry or warp prism. They will always drop the sentry near the ramp so keep the marines there. With a bunker they will on many maps help protect the lowground too. | ||
