I remember getting drunk and playing Starcraft during the beta last summer, the night the Chicago Bulls signed Carlos Boozer. I kept telling everyone at the start of the game I was "BOOZING FOR BOOZER" and one game I tried fast expanding at the gold base on Scrap Station as Zerg. That didn't work out for me.

Alcohol: Yes can play up to a certain point, quite good in early stages of drinking, then slowly start to deteriorate after the 12 beer mark
Weed: Great starter for session, good to smoke one bowl every 2-3 hours of a hardcore session, calms you down.
Halucinogens: Forget it. Just forget it. You may THINK it would be cool but honestly your mind drifts to other places very fast.
Alcohol and weed: My usual vice......let's just say I'm high plat and have a 65% ish percent win rate whilst using. Gotta stop playing once things get blurry.
Methamphetamine: Brilliant for Starcraft. Makes me feel Korean. Though you can't do this shit too much, stuff will make an addict outta the dalai lama.
Cocaine: Almost as good as Meth, but again cant do it much,
Ecstacy: Pretty damn good in the late stages of a trip, not when peaking as usually you're too scattered/lovey/on the floor rubbing your face on the carpet. Excellent at late stages when combined with two bowls of weed and three shots of jaegemeister.
Prescriptions uppers: Quite damn good, specially Dextramphetamines. Also diet pills. Great or concentraction and weight loss
Caffeine: Not as good as meth
Heroin: I dont' know, never done it....but cant imagine it's good for SC

I am a high Plat player who responsibly uses and experiments with various substances while playing SC. I feel it is a great challenge to force my brain to work while under the influence. When I am seriously laddering seriously however, I excercise before hand and try to eat something Asian. Then have exactly two smalls puffs of a bowl and about 3-4 full strength beers as the day progresses. Served me ok so far

Agree with this 100%, did some shrooms and partway through the night I thought I'd give SC a try with my new-found creativity. Sometime, not long after I dropped my spawning pool in game 1, I completely lost interest and went to do something else. Came back a few hours later to the Defeat menu.

I play sometimes after a few drinks, but it usually turns into a session of experimenting with all sorts of all-in timings, usually resulting in a long losing streak til I win one and call it a night.

Also have Tylenol 3s on hand for my migraines, and after a couple of those (assuming I've taken them in time to stop the migraine) the sense of calm from the codeine results in a really enjoyable gaming experience. Win or lose, I seem to keep a clear head and just keep focused on the games.

As far as my "session routine" goes... I think that smoking a little bit of weed helps me remain focused and gets me into the groove for a long gaming session, just 3 or 4 hits off a small J to start the night, followed by a couple of cups of coffee (spaced out over an hour or two) keeps me going for quite a long time.
Teamwork is awesome... As long as your team is doing all the work!

Drugs overall does not concern starcraft at all.

I once played under influence of Heroin, since then, i overstim my marines in every game.



In seriousness, i drink lots of coffee and tea in general, so that's my drug for sc2.

I don't personally do any drugs, prescription or non prescription, but I once played a 2v2 with a buddy who was smoking weed at the time and we lost because all he would do was move his units around and zoom in on them and pan the camera around and laugh lol. Never again will I play 2v2s with him while he is high haha.

played 4v4 on acid once. everything was so pretty and the sounds blew my mind. needless to say, i didn't do very well. kept getting raged at by teammates and i wasn't willing to fuck up my 1v1.

then i thought it was a good idea to play amnesia. i dare anyone with balls to try it.

other than that i often play with a bottle of Jack Daniels nearby. i play better but the trick is to not get wasted, only mellow.

I've also played once on the pain pills that i had left over from having my appendix removed. dont know what that shit was but i played better than I've ever played on that shit. i wouldn't mind getting hold of more. too bad we only have one!
6 poll is a good skill toi have

Don't have any good experiences with drugs and starcraft. Only played starcraft while drunk and high on weed and both just make you slow and forgetful,

i guess the reason could be that no one actually plays 4v4 ^^

My story is alcohol, if im smashed and play a game of starcraft it feels so strange.... like the game feels very very fast and only after what i think is like 20-30 seconds it is 5-6 minutes into the game which is really weird......

but... coffee is definently the best drug by far!!!! keeps me powerd throughout the day!!!


(and snus offcourse cos im swedish and all)

Alcohol makes me play really bad, but I don't drink a lot so after a few bears I'm already really drunk.
Messing around in team games works fine on weed, 1 v 1 becomes kinda horrible though.

Well, after a few shots of vodka (the good shit, Russian Standard, not stolichnaya or smirnoff)...I can finally get out of bed, and after about half a handle then I can start getting into the groove of my macro and micro, and after I've polished off a few bottles my skill at ladder is unsurpassed. This, my friends, is the only way to go if you want to get good.

Why? Didn't you know? Drugs are only cool and awesome if everyone else knows you're using them.

Personally am on adderall for adhd or whatever. It does help me focus etc as I tend to be distracted easily. I probably play a little better overall but I wouldnt say its an amazing gain, could probably get the same if I drank coffee or something.

Ive played drunk a few times but only did 4v4 and just did stupid crap that ended up working anyway. Somewhat sloppy play.

Played stoned a few times as well (stopped smoking since my old roommate moved out) It does make me a little slower, but Im def a lot calmer and less panicky. Also made everything feel a lot more fluid and flowing. Also had no anxiety(sp) about doing 1v1 ladder, das evil find match button.

Or that everyone who has high 4v4 rank is on drugs.
