STARCRAFT does anyone still play it?

[zhul4nder]

Back to me

i was thinking about a zealot,dt, and sair combo. sair to rid of observers, zealots and dts to get the choke. Amounts of each, i'm not sure


-edit-
i'm mostly playing zero clutter right on. I'm trying to figure out how to:

1. build buildings faster
2. build units faster
3. recall better
4. manage anti air
5. manage ground strategies

If anyone can help me on those topics, that'd be great. zero clutter imo provides an excellent place to pratice building stuff as well as ingraining into my brain what units needs what tech. It'll also provide a game that i can practice defeating turtling tactics as well as mass wtfhax ground rushes/air rushes.

What i don't get is how toss players build their entire fortress in seconds. I review the replays and at first, they build three pylons, wait a white for tech to build up, then in a blink have a fortress of cannons, gateways, and stargates. soon after, the goon army builds up out of nowhere and crush me D:

[halomasterman]

Yeah starcraft is one of the best games ever made. I use to play it all the time at school =)

[Zageron]

I used to play, but then the expansion came out and I didn't feel like rebuilding my strategies.

[Xception704]

The expansion came out so many years ago ... haha.

I doubt anyone here could beat a progamer that could only use one hand. You'd still get stomped all over. Check out the latest episode of TLAttack on the YouTube nevake account. Sea[Shield], who isn't even top five in Korea right now, completely stomps over everyone he faces without even trying.

Is anyone else a sAviOr fan? I used to be and still am ... but I can't bring myself to watch his games anymore. He's slumping so badly and sucking so badly that it's unbearable to watch him anymore. =(

[Relambrien]

Don't worry Xception, Ma Jae Yoon was just promoted back to CJ's A team. A few weeks ago he was demoted to B so he could clear his head and get back in the game, and now he's back.

Savior fighting!

[Xception704]

HAHAHA I JUST read the article on TL.net.

OMG I'M SORRY I DOUBTED YOU SAVIOR. GO KICK ASS AGAIN.

also, I'm ****ing pumped for Boxer's return from the military ... should be back sometime in November or December.

... which means the Pimpest Plays list will once again be dominated by him. =)

[zhul4nder]

is feedback an AOE type attack?

i found that zealot rushes, about a group of 10-12 would be enough to take out an entire force of tanks. By the time the terrans realize that I broke through their tank defense, i'll already have goons on the way to finish them off, not to mention my allies would dig their lurkers or what not into their skins as well

I do agree with starcraft is one of the greatest games ever made. I use to play it all the time at school.

zc games are usually no rush. Don't make any units until you have 50 miners and 3 workers per gas and a ****load of buildings. Start upgrades really early so that your fully upgraded for all units before times up. Then max out. ZC is easy and retarded

[Wineandbread]

Feedback for wraiths? Pretty unconventional strategy, if you ask me. You have no idea of telling how much energy the wraiths have. Plus, you've got to make a bunch of dark archons to do it anyway (4 feedbacks per dark archon, 5 upgraded) and they don't have any other significant use vs terran.
Also, stopping Terran observers won't do anything if the guy actually uses comsat. >_>

They still haven't released a 2007 Pimpest Plays, have they? It's pretty far into 2008 already...

I'm a pretty active member in the pro SC community, I suppose. I'm not too good at the game though, i.e. my APM is max at 130 and I only know really oldschool build orders
FYI I play protoss, I'm not particulary good at anything other than recall and stasis usage.

Thank me later.

EDIT- p.s. zero clutter and fastest are truly for nubs. but 7v1 BGH comp stomp is the way to go? xD

[hi19hi19]

I also have a completely nongay man-crush on Reach. He's the ****ing man.

[Relambrien]

You guys should download Hamachi so we can play together on LAN latency. There's a guide in the "Questions and Guides" forum on sc2gg about installing it. Then we could create an FFR network for SC players!

[OnixRose]

I used to play, I'll start up again when SC2 comes out

I think you've been influenced by Cholera too much lol.

I know a lot of my opinions have been influenced by Klazart considering he's the commentator that I listened to when I was first introduced to the progaming scene.

I really only listen to the top 4 on that list ... I'm subscribed to Vaul, but I don't really want to watch foreigners play ... I mean, it can be exciting too, but there's just something different about the korean scene.

Also, who the hell said zero clutter doesn't rush? Protoss players rush a majority of the time. They make a pylon in the center to block units, then proceed to cannon like crazy.

I have Hamachi ... does anyone have a server though?

[Relambrien]

I went ahead and made a Hamachi server:

FFR_BW
password: synth

You'll see me on as Cobalt

[Xception704]

joined.

[archbishopjabber]

I use to play pretty frequently, haven't in a while though. It is an awesome game. I hated money maps, but I liked playing legitimate maps and custom maps. Some of the defense games were awesome, especially Poker Defense. I also liked Spawn Defense and the recreation of the Trojan War a lot.

I had a mancrush on Reach way before Cholera, lol. Though I like Cholera's Reach commentaries because we share the same opinion of him ^___^
Vaul has a really sexy voice, that's why I like his so much. Besides Diggity, moletrap, Cholera, and Klaz, I really only listen to PsyonicReaver and Vaul. Rise and Greth sometimes, too.

I usually go by TheBeegFeesh on USEast. But I guess this would be a good excuse to get Hamachi I suppose, so you guys can all enjoy stomping me.
(btw, Hamachi = Japanese for yellowtail fish? wtf?)

[_Adrian_]

I'd like a CD key to be able to play online, gets much too boring playing 1 player. I got like 3 copies of it. LOL

Sorry, can't really give you tips because I suck.
