Was initially placed into gold, but after dropping five straight last night, I was demoted to silver.

I can easily waste techers with my fast expand build order, but I'm having a really difficult time beating rushers, particularly zerg rushers. I've been using terran and I just can't seem to beat the zerg+bangling rush strategy.

Re: Starcraft II beta

I'm like 14 in my division. Some people favored over me are total pushovers, and some just run me over. I'm still sort of figuring out the counters and putting together half decent build orders. Mostly been doing a timing marauder +1 attack push against toss, and quick vikings against zerg. Verse terran I'm pretty clueless.

The most lol moment I've had so far, was getting called a cheeser for doing an infantry push up his ramp at like 7 minutes. Like wat bro?

Gonna go buy a new mouse for this game actually, since my wireless has been acting up and really hurts my mouse accuracy.

also three of my losses have come from me dropping, and the whole game locks up. no idea how those games would have gone, always happens relatively early in the match

Re: Starcraft II beta

My last two vTerran, I went one base double fact siege tank rush. About two tanks with marine and hellion support at about 6 minutes, and both times it crushed my opponent. Even after my opponent did a very effective reaper harrass.

Although, this is after scouting them going two rax. I'm not sure how well it'd work out if they opted for an early fact.

I am really bad at this game. The only RTS I've ever been decent at is AoEII.

Re: Starcraft II beta

I play as Protoss, Terran wrecks me

EDIT-also I totally suck and have zero fun playing in 1v1 matches, I'm NEVER fast enough to get any strategy I want working.

Re: Starcraft II beta

Day 3, I'm still terrible overall, but I did wreck a terran player with a bunch of void rays.

Re: Starcraft II beta

DOES THAT MAKE YOU FEEL GOOD?

Re: Starcraft II beta

I'm 22-18 right now, on a four game win streak, and when I'm a win streak I get really anxious to play another gaaame.

When are we gonna play guys!?

Also, had my most triumphant moment when I defended an 8 pool on Scrap Yard, with minimal losses, and my opponent rage quit.

Re: Starcraft II beta

Thanks for that build order idea Caciss. I haven't run into a Terran that could beat it yet.

I'm trying to figure out the optimal time to upgrade my Command Center. I usually do it when I have two SCVs per mineral patch and 6 on gas. I'm thinking that's a bit too late though.

Re: Starcraft II beta

Upgrade to Orbital Command? You should pretty much be using your first 25 (or is it 15?) gas to upgrade to OC, and remember to use that mule instantly.

Also, since I've noticed people I play not know, rallying your workers to a mineral patch will make them automine, and if you call down your mule right onto a min patch they'll automine as well.

My standard opening is generally 10depot,12rax,13refinery,15orbital command and then the builds generally diverge from there.

Re: Starcraft II beta

Sampson and I played probably the most exciting game of 2v2 I've ever played.
