Saracen did a really great summary of SC2 strat threads in the SC2 Beta weekly round-up:

On July 20 2010 02:31 Saracen wrote:
As usual, our Strategy Forum's been churning out post after post of stimulating Starcraft discussion, and some exemplary threads have come out of it. If you're a bit out of the loop, some amazing ways to use and abuse the Infestor and Void Ray have been discovered. And, once again, Plexa's firing up another insightful discussion, this time about muta/ling in ZvP. Not only is this a great pit-stop for those of you looking for some variation in the matchup, but it shows you how to make a quality Strategy Forum OP as well (it would be amazing if we could template this). Finally, be on the lookout for this mechanics compliation thread by FC.Strike that's bound to be an invaluable resource in the future.


It feels kind of stupid to make a strat posting in the Starcraft section because SCII is coming out so soon. Check out this post about queens. The queen was so close to making it to meta-game center stage.

OneOther makes a cool post about PvP. Check it out here.

Elemenope was just banned by riptide.

That account was created on 2006-03-25 09:04:42 and had 1704 posts.

Reason: A knave; a rascal; an eater of broken meats; base, proud, shallow, beggarly, three-suited, hundred-pound, filthy, worsted-stocking knave; a lily-livered, action-taking knave, a whoreson, glass-gazing, super-serviceable finical rogue; one-trunk-inheriting slave; one that wouldst be a bawd, in way of good service, and art nothing but the composition of a knave, beggar, coward, pandar, and the son and heir of a mongrel bitch: one whom I will beat into clamorous whining, if thou deniest the least syllable of thy addition.

I got spoiled I suppose its my own fault. I should have known better then to be on the internet this week.

As a mod it sadly was inevitable to get spoiled as we had to go hunting for that crap .

I need to play the campaign real quick, I would probably do horrible things to my keyboard if I got spoiled.
