You play a lot of SC2, play against practice partners and/or ladder (search for practice partner thread), download top replays to learn from, and watch streams. Teamliquid will give you a lot of help on builds, and you can ask simple questions in general forum thread. Also, don't choose TLPD-ize when you post normal text.
I think I found a bug in the interface. If for example I select 1v1 and Terran, and repeatedly press single player and multiplayer a few times (quickly), if that secuence ends in multiplayer, the UI selects 2v2 for me. o.O

As a matter of fact, you can't press single player once you are searching for a game Of course is not a big deal, just wanted to share it and see if happens to anyone else

This is a question that has been circling my mind like a pair of sharks smelling blood in the water. I am a mid gold level player. I started out in bronze with Terran, then I hit a wall. I felt like learning something else from a different perspective could help so I switched to Protoss and got into silver. Then I hit another wall. Feeling like I could go no further with my Protoss play I switched to Zerg. I quickly started progressing from simple 1 base builds, to now always being some what forced to expand with Zerg. Now here I am, I was High gold for the longest time with Zerg but took a break because I hit another wall. Now I'm having a race crisis and can't focus on one race to excel at it and practice with. TL;DR I'm in gold and don't know which race to play to advance to more leagues.
just pick one and stick with it. whichever race you enjoy, just play that one. You can't always dodge the wall and "seeing another race's prespective" at this level imo is just an excuse to not have to work over the wall
Well, I cant think of any other place to ask this: Where would be the best place to list a piece of Starcraft memorabilia for sale? I have a White-ra signed mousepad that I won in a plat tourney a while back...but I already had one! Can't imagine anyone actually going to ebay to look for the stuff...and dont know of anywhere else.
A question concerning improvement and making it into masters. From bronze to diamond, the general advice on a build order is to pick a single build order for each matchup, and perfect it. However, when I look at pro replays from tournaments, they rarely have the same build order. What I mean is they'll probably play a bo3/5/7 with a certain build with deviations, which is fine, but in a different tournament they use a totally different build. Every pro has different builds and I'm having trouble just picking one. Is it fine to copy different builds and focus on the essentials of macro to make sure I can pull off a small variety of strats with consistency in my macro mechanics?
Edit. I'm a high diamond if you're curious. My macro is generally... acceptable.
I'm getting "There is a temporary outage of the Battle.net services" when I try to log on. Anyone else getting that issue, or, if it's just me, does anyone know a fix?
Is there anyway to report a cheater except sending a report ingame? It feels like it doesn't do shit, I remember one cheater particular that I added to friends. I kept track of him and he was playing like every day almost when I was online for a month after I reported him, and the cheat was so obvious. I had several friends watch it and they felt the same, maphack and looking through fog of war and making perfect counters etc.
Does Blizzard react maybe if I send them a email with evidence etc., does that have any effect at all?
Zerg player here. I messed around in the unit tester map, and I noticed that lings stop for quite a while after hitting say a moving scv.
If you micro the ling you can make that a-move cooldown shorter and hence make the ling attack the scv more often than it should on normal A-move. (Right after it hits the scv, move click it somewhere else, and immediatley press stop, or click the scv again. The ling will then attack it faster than normal.)
Can someone please verify this. Is this of significance? I can Imagine it beeing useful vs marines that are stutterstepping away from a ling ball, allowing the microing of the marines to be less efficient.
where did this day9 is dead stuff start i know he is not dead but it seems like every stream i go to someone is saying it im kinda new to the community thanks in advance

Blizzard forums maybe? There must be support emails also, if you look enough
Anyone have ideas on how to hold your hands on the keyboard to hit all the hotkeys? I want to start splitting my army into 123 but it is difficult to reach all the way to 4567 to get the production buildings. Am I missing something?
