Starcraft 2 - Friends List Database

I've had SC2 open and I just alt tabbed out. Been 2 hours and it really lags a lot to tab in and out

It eats a lot of RAM too ._. 1.4GB now

 

Just let me add the bare minimum 10 characters to my post ... doh!

 

Yeah. Reboot maybe. Could be a memory leak. I just logged back in to SC2 on my desktop.

 

Turn around victories are awesome

 

Sorry guys. My oldest boy woke up screaming... think he's having nightmares lately. Not that I was contributing much anyhow.

 

Well that was our last game ._.

Awesome games guys Especially the last one

I can feel Vicious's hate on Reapers

This one's the replay of the 2v2 between Me and Henry v HT and Farful

This one's our last 3v3

 

Finally got SC2

My battle.net email is [email protected]

 

If anyone else downloads, just ignore the player RigorMortis. I have no idea who he is and he sucks really bad.

I realize after watching that, I had a few opportunities to build a raven or two which would have probably saved my butt a while longer, instead I kept wasting crystal on stupid marines. Without the raven there wouldn't be much else I could do because of those stupid cloaked units. I hate them.

 

Pretty sure that RigorMortis guy beats that farful guy

Who you should avoid is BakaTora. He BMs and cheeses alot

 

Truth. In that first sentence.

Cheesing is fun to play against (imho). It forces you to learn how to counter, scout, etc. Basically all the fundamentals.

(In reference to the 2v2) did you guys know that Medivac comes out of a starport? Man, it sure would have been nice if that marine/marauder massing guy built some when he clearly had a starport....

 

I know right

It would also help if he at least places one missile turret at the top of the ramp to prevent DT run ins

 

I might as well have just built scv's because I didn't do much else. I could have at least kept feeding farful resources, lol.

I did put turrets in strategic locations, but since I stupidly massed all my marines together, they were ineffective. Duh. Just a few around each turret would have been sufficient.

edit: after watching again, I put a turret at the top of the ramp much to late. Ah well.

 

Yeah, but at least I had a turret going 20 mins into the game.... I never even thought of medivacs until the game was over

I've never had to deal with anything other than 3rax as terran before

 

With better detection on your part, Reizo's DTs wouldn't have been able to save my backside on oh so many occasions, and there were quite a few battles I won with just a few units to spare, which I wouldn't have if you had medivacs.

 

1 gate DT for a whole 5minutes really ruined you guys

 

rematch! rematch!

 

You guys just ignored me last night. I was waiting for you to finish the game, then I think you started a new game after when I was waiting for like 10 minutes for the current one to finish without starting my own game just so I could join you.

:/

 

I thought we were losing and then we continued on and somehow we won Sorry Vicious

 

Ahh, yeah you said you just lost the game. So I thought it was over.

I should have kept messing with you

 

"Dear Team Liquid,

Last night I was playing TvP. I decided to go for a nice 3rax build, but I got stomped by 1 gate DT. How can I counter this build?"

 

I lost a game to Reizo too with DT play but he was super evil and did it to me after a cannon rush so the last thing I was expecting was DT nor did I have the economy to get detection up in time.

Im thinking cannon rush --> DT is a really viable strat lol because seriously nobody would expect it.

But it was one of those maps good for the cannons it wouldnt work all the time or against all races.

 

It seems like a natural transition to me, cannons don't need gas so you can save up, and if you see a lot of cannons and no units you know something's up.

I'd expect either carriers or dts

 

Yeah I do weird builds like using the rarely used DTs or the now oh-so-useless reapers

Transitioning into carriers after a cannon rush simply takes too long ._. for DTs, you can easily just warp them in quickly

 

First, here's the rematch between me and VisciousXUSMC. :-O

Later on the same night, me, Viscious and TakeItEasy did a 3v3 ... and Easy lagged out. :-( Viscious assumed all was lost, but luckily, UserEGO has this annoying habit of playing lost causes. Turns out it wasn't such a lost cause, because I was being lazy and those guys were, as Easy would say, terribad ... or, am I a hacker? Hmm ...

 

what time is everyone coming on tonight? I should be on around 10pm EDT

 

Neverrrr

 

I hope to get on, we have to start packing for our 1 week out of town trip and also I did not go to bed last night and have to watch the kids all day today so by tonight I may just be dead tired and have to crash.

I played that zerg hunter rpg custom game all night ugh... i get addicted to those type of games too easy.

 

Finally got SC2

Name on there is: HighAzFucc

 

we need your character code as well, if you mouse over your profile pic it should tell you ingame : )

 

just start adding a bunch of us and you'll eventually get the NBR meetups a happening

 

NBR Night was pretty fun today. Had a lot of awesome games, and 1 or 2 not so awesome games (damn skype).

Here are some of the replays from today.

3v3 (Banelings + Marines + Carriers = ?!?!)
4v3 (Marauder + Muta = imba)
3v3 (NBR owning some random people

Also Vicious and I got to Diamond in 2v2 today.

Here's the game that promoted us.

And finally Farful and I had a pretty decent practice 1v1 game, so if you guys want to see a replay of 2 diamond players duking it out, here it is.



Things for both of us to improve: We both get supply blocked once, our macro slips during battles, I transition into vikings late, Farful does get not enough gateway units, both of our worker production is sporadic rather than constant, Farful does not scout enough, I use too many scans instead of mules, and Farful lets his expo get sniped without doing much damage to me.

 

That was a decent game. My suggestions to Farful would be to get Extended Thermal Lance for your collosus. Also I'm surprised Farful didn't get warp gates. I kind of thought it was something that pretty much every Protoss player got regardless of the unit composition?

 

I think Farful is not normally Protoss?

But yeah for 50/50 I consider warp gate the single most important thing you can get as protoss, and I also consider thermal lance a required cost if getting any colossus.

 

farful's usually zerg but he plays protoss quite a bit too. I do notice he prefers gateways over warpgates though ._.

 

I think he said why once. Something like it works better with is macro style since he can que up units and rally them without worry of needing pylon power.

 

Yeah, missing extended thermal lance is actually a quite common mistake. But a lot of people skip it early on to get 2 colossi out quickly in order to hold off MMM pressure. 200/200 is an expensive upgrade.

I'm pretty sure Farful mains Protoss.

Farful and I even had a match testing gateway vs warpgates a while ago.

 

-My main is indeed protoss for solo right now. I can usually never beat terran (specifically MM).

-I'm a noob and don't use warp gates.

-Regards to lance: How does protoss get enough gas for it?

-I usually never fast expand, so it was interesting to do so. I'm always afraid of an MM rush which did not come. I (think I) changed directions once I saw my expansion being attacked. I might have had more success if I didn't turn back? I haven't watched the replay But regardless, I basically lost that expansion for free which hurt.

-My last ladder game was against an 1800 terran, and I actually managed to win thanks to a fast expand. I credit my exhibition game against takeiteasy for that win.

 

I noticed how you don't fast expand. Especially when you commented on my love of expanding early >:0

We should get some more 1v1s going ._. I'm getting rusty for not playing for days now

 

You're one of the highest rated NBR players, and yet you're a "noob" who only recently has started using tier 3 units!

Sorry, unless you're one of us lower level bronze players barely keeping it together, you can't call yourself a noob ...

 

I just meant I'm a noob in respect to not using warpgates. The general consensus seems to be that only noobs use gateways instead of warpgates!

 

In general, expanding is hard to pull off, especially if your opponent is not expanding. You will already be down 400 minerals to build your CC, and the advantage doesn't come until you build more workers... which also require more supply. Basically, if you expand (and your opponent doesn't) your army size will be way smaller and any sort of attack will be hard to defend against. At my level, I usually win because my opponent tries to expand, and lacks a decent army size. All that said, all the really good players will know how and when to expand. I think learning to expand is very difficult and is probably the next step in improvement for myself. Scratch that, watching any sort of replay would probably be my best bet for improvement. No wait, scratch that, making warpgates would probably be my best bet for improvement...

Anyway, I expanded that game against takeiteasy for three reasons.
1. That map just has a ridiculous natural to expand.
2. I can never beat terran with just one base.
3. I expected takeiteasy to also expand.

 

._. lol

Expanding has been my priority for a while now D: I think you just slowly pick up on the timing to fast expand and know how to properly defend it to make the expansion worth it

 

To be honest unless you are 2000+ points in diamond, you are a noob.

This game is still too new so most of the timings and strategies are still unknown.

Like in SC1, a current ICCUP C ranked player would be considered a top Pro in the early days of Brood War.

Everyone is a noob so no worries. It is only the varying degrees of noobiness that sets people apart.

 

There's no reason to use gateways over warpgates. At all. You realllyyy should learn to use them as staying on gateways definitely holds you back.

 

I think today may be my last day for internet. Im in a Hampton, we leave for a log cabin today where I will be held captive for the next 3 days.

So no SC2 for me this Friday :/

Be sure to get on without me though.

 

I haven't played SC2 since I our last NBR night

 

I have midterms, won't be able to play SC2 this week and next week.

 

Enjoy it. SC2 can wait. Although I'd say enjoy the peace and quiet but I know that won't be the case!

 

Anyone up for games today on the US server??

My name has changed (due to the new option) and is now JellyFish #210

 

There's a new option?
