Yeah I agree with simpynator - China is most like the region you fall into... although seems a bit of an oversight from blizzard, Asia is pretty big hehe.

More TL related than SC2 related, but what exactly are the requirements for all TL's icons/portraits or whatever you wanna call them? I know it's based on post count and time as a member, but whenever I've asked someone they've just dodged the question one way or another :/


Get a colored name and you'll get a custom one


lol that's still dodging the question.

But I guess that's the point

I was testing a build vs AI today and noticed something, SC2 is really smooth when played offline! By smooth I mean no lags or delay regarding ping. My question is: Do everybody notice a huge delay/ping difference between offline mode vs AI and ladder? I feel my net is making me lag more than I should, and it's really hurting my micro.

I play on EU if that matters.


I've experienced this problem going from multiplayer games to the single player challenge missions. I thought I was the only one as well because I've never seen anyone mention this particular caveat. I'd be interested in seeing if there is anything to this because I'd like to replicate that single player control feeling in multiplayer. It just feels a lot better.

Edit: I should mention that I play on the NA server, it's not that I'm trying to get onto another region. I think the game would end before I would get to do anything, the lag would be so high.

I don't see shredders regularly getting through the shields on protoss units. A few stalkers or zealots could probably punch through one before losing too much hull health. On the other hand, they could be a good way to deal with DTs without detection or using scans.


I imagine they'd be good in larger main maps like lost temple for putting on the edge of your base to prevent warp prism drop/warp in on the edges of the base, with a little support. i can imagine that they'd tear through a toss unit pretty quick as it was warping in. or for useful line of sight areas like the trees next to the natural on xel'naga caverns

happy birthday jinro.
it's cool that gstl will be up again but the rising price of tickets is really starting to piss me off. i'm paying for the vods, and the vods have ads. i know that it is great content and all, but the hell if i'm going to shell out hundreds of dollars so i can watch vods without ads :/

I wonder if there is a twitter account or blog for translated korean tweets. I often ask myself what players like nestea, MC, DRG, MKP or others tweet. using google translate isn`t helpful and funny at best.

Any news on whether they're still going to implement moving burrowed banelings in HotS?

Haven't been following HotS at all recently but that seems just awkward.

I think so

although they are 'burrowed' i bet people won't have any problems dealing with it because the baneling burrow needs hive to upgrade, and by then peoples will have some kind of detection units by then

okay, first post ever please don't kill me (this post is going to be rambly so i'll do a TL:DR). basically me and a few firends were watching SCI4 at one of our houses, all the computers in the same room and as it ended we decided to have a little LAN party tournament of our own. We're all complete bronzie noobs but thought, maybe people would actually watch this kind of thing? we were thinking just having us commentating on our own games, our little LAN's and possibly a sort of Road to Gold/Plat set of streams. What we wanted to know is, is this a ridiculous idea which no one would watch or is there some interest?

TL:DR bronze noobs cating their LAN parties and Road to Gold/Plat, would you/anyone watch?

cheers

But they would surely help while slowpushing with a mech army. 3-4 well positioned shredders in front, battle hellions behind and tanks in the back. It really seems like it could work. If anything, they would still force Protoss back.


I like this idea. Seems to me that a good option will be to reposition and slow push with shredders, alternating them with tanks doing the same. It'd slow down the already super-slow slow push considerably but it would also make Protoss players very unwilling to engage straight up. They'll have to do fun, creative things like using void rays or phoenix (are shredders light?) to pick off shredders while they move forward, forcing marines up into the shredder fields to ward them off, deactivating the shredders and providing a window for the Protoss army to attack.

Personally, I'm excited :D And I don't even play Protoss or Terran!

The stream "market" is over saturated as it is, i think you would have a lot of difficulty getting viewers beyond RL friends and such. edit: it's not a ridiculous idea, i would watch if it weren't for the already unlimited amount of other awesome stuff i could watch :p

Hey, so I posted this in the tech support forums, but I figured I might post it here as well to see if I could get a quick response.

I'm getting an error when I try to log in with my TW account, but I have no idea what it says.

Could anyone help me out?

Here is a link to the error if you'd care to take a crack at it: http://imgur.com/2J6GG

On LiquidHero stream I hear a lot of Western popular song -- is the music for the viewer? Is Hero listening to the same music while playing? Do pros listen to music while playing at all?

I actually think having popular music for viewer is a smart idea since streaming aims to less as a hobby and more like a entertainment service now.
Best or nothing.
