Can i get an explination for why i was banned from bw strategy? would post in website feedback but there isn't a thread for this subject there. My bw strategy posts are consistenly above average and just cause i got flamed by some d- noobs, who may have abused the report function or something... doesn't seem right when i was trying to contribute and actually raise quality of discussion and debate with my posts and wasn't trolling at all. What admin did this? can't see anything that's helpful being done from my POV.

I have been reporting the shitty posts you've been making for far too long in the BW strategy section and explaining why they were wrong in the report text. I wasn't going to say anything but since you had the gall to make a post demonstrating a negative level of self-awareness here, I'd like to point out that YOU are the "d- noob" as demonstrated by your MMR, ICCup rank history, and your consistently incorrect posts.

You weren't raising the quality of discussion. You were an active detriment to others trying to learn the game.

Man, whoever you are theres no need to spam report on my posts just cause u disagree with them. obviously i don't get notified when u do this, so if u do it 5-10 times some admin is gonna see it. Who even are you? why u being so aggressive? smoke a j man my posts aren't anywhere near as bad as ur making it seem...

User was warned for this post.

Your posts in strategy vary from unhelpful to outright wrong.

We do not intend to reverse your ban for the time being.

I have a question. Behave properly and act like a normal civil being is mandatory on the forum. I completly agree with that rule. How come certain promoted live stream(s) are an exception on this rule or do the rules not apply for live streams? im not talking about an incidental bm, but non stop.

Live streams that are shown on TL does not mean that those streamers belong to TL or that they need to follow our rules. Streamers can do whatever they want because TL doesn't have control over what kind of content streamers put out.

Hey guys,

I lost my account a while ago (it is called Fezvez). The unfortunate thing is that the email adress I had used was lost a long time ago (account is 8 years old or something)

Is there some way I can get it back? I know it's a lot to ask (no password and no access to email adress), but obviously no one uses it right now, and I was pretty proud of the liquipedia contribution badge (as well as doing a kick ass Co-op guide)

That doesn't help. He's asking about Featured News and Community News. Right now, TL doesn't have a function where you can filter out BW or SC2 from the FN/CN sections.

the most imbalanced map I ever played in BW was a UMS missile defense where the host on the red color got double the resources as everyone else in the game because it was rigged so i would always get the top score. race was terran and protoss because you could stack turrets and later cannons

Rough since a lot of the early maps favoured a race heavily, but there's a lot that I haven't played on to say.

For Terran, I would say Plasma. Now, I don't think it's crazy imbalanced, however, I can easily see myself winning like 90% of my games on that map vs a zerg so long as I open well and use the map architecture to my advantage.

For Zerg, a more recent map is Andromeda imo though some of the other ones mentioned are good. SK Terran is extremely difficult to play for a lower level player and it's a map where it's rough to play mech on or to mech switch to try and reduce the APM requirements. In short, I guess any maps that force SK Terran indirectly.

For Protoss, no clue haha.

Not sure if you knew, but we had a TL BW Staff team in Qikz's STPL where myself, 2pac, v1 and FlaShFTW played as a team. We avoided being the Airforce ace team somehow and won some games.

From staff, myself, v1, 2pac, FlaShFTW, lemmata, esportsjohn (at one point), Ty2 and Ziggy all have played or are still playing BW recently. Essentially, we all do, but obviously, everyone likes his own approach (I hate laddering for instance, but I'm sure some of the other staff might like it).

This makes me think of a game played on Andromeda. Sea vs Jaedong where Sea went sk terran the whole time. that game was awesome.

What are your favourite builds to use? Also, which ones do you love to watch?

I know exactly what game you mean. It was a 2008 PL game that was really back and forth, one of the best macro games I've watched to date! Sea's macro can be really insane when he's on top of it, like Nada!

I'm not a fan of the mech transition. I really prefer bio builds so I tend to stick to bio, aka SK Terran but then I find that in some cases, it doesn't cut it so I'll add tanks into the mix and go from there. Of course, I don't mind some mech games, but that 5 rax +1 into mech transition wasn't great imo. Now, if only Afreeca can at least turn off dynamic lighting!

In terms of actual builds, I would say 1 rax FE in my go-to build that I've done a lot by this point. More times than not, I'll go for 9 depot 11 rax 14 cc on the low ground then walk off somewhat with either another depot or bunker. Add gas at some point, get an acad or another rax then just go for double starport and use tanks to defend my main/exp. From there, I push out, be aggressive and establish a third etc...
