STARCRAFT does anyone still play it?

Re: STARCRAFT does anyone still play it?

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.

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!

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?

Re: STARCRAFT does anyone still play it?

I went ahead and made a Hamachi server:

You'll see me on as Cobalt

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?)

Re: STARCRAFT does anyone still play it?

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.

lol sounds a little more than a man-crush to me.

Re: STARCRAFT does anyone still play it?

If you're playing toss on a money map and you wanna take tanks and wraiths there's two way to do it. The better method is to just mass scouts and have a bunch of observers follow them around, the scouts will own the wraiths and and when they're done, they'll destroy the tanks too.

Another way to deal with the problem is to make a group of arbiters and mass archons. Fly the arbiters in and stasis the wraiths if you care about your arbiters. Stasis or not, once your arbiters are above the tanks recall your archons right there. Once the tanks are toast have your archons ready to finish of the wraiths when they're out of stasis, this second method is better if the enemy has valkyries. Also if the enemy has valks try to keep your observers at a safe distance so they don't pop and the wraith cloak becomes a problem.

By the way this second method is also an excellent way to attack an enemy base, just be sure to get the recall in before your arbiters die off, and always ALWAYS have a bunch of batteries ready to pump up your units shields when they're running low.

Starcraft will probably crash and burn one day.

I hear Blizzard is making a World of Starcraft. I mean, come on. Seriously?
