hey… so is there a working video of the averatec final w/ jaedong v. flash? the gomtv doesn’t work too well, as numerous people have reported…
WCG Ro8
Stork § v. fOrGG (T)
Stork § v. fOrGG (T) on Blue Storm
Stork § v. fOrGG (T) on Troy
Stork § wins 2-0, Stork abusing carrier-friendly maps to carrier his way through PvT as usual.
youtube might have them or try searching on google video
Go Stork! Get that 2nd Place!
WCG is a special event so he could win it!
gomtv vods are working. Or at least they were earlier this week.
hey does anyone have starcraft reg and bw cd keys that they don’t use anymore? i lost mine when i moved and i’m too cheap to buy a new copy just for the damn key.
You can get them cheap from Blizzard online store IIRC.
Some updates on WCG, OSL, MSL-
who cares about WCG or OSL, MA JAE YOON qualifies for MSL.
Do you just wanna play online? Cus you can do that with www.iccup.com abyss server. The lvl of competition is a lot higher there than bnet but you can find games much quicker. The only pickup games I can ever find on bnet are from some foreigners with 20 weird characters in their name. I bought a cdkey to play in the srk tournament, but now I rarely play on bnet anymore.
I’ve been playing on iccup, and i’m doing absolutely horrible. I’m getting owned by everyone on there, not to mention the fact this is my first time playing starcraft in years.
Well that’s to be expected if you haven’t played in years. Just keep playing man. Iccup people are really good but you’ll run into a total noob now and then. Rare though.
Play some people you know.
What’s the best way to learn how to play Starcraft? Are there any good guides online to read? I recently got into Starcraft since one of my friends plays it and suggested it to me. Right now I’m playing as Terran and he constantly gets me with a Dark Templar rush. I try to tech to the science vessel, but he usually gets me before that. Also, how important are upgrades for your units?
First and foremost, I suck. Second upgrades are very important because the longer the game goes on the more important they become. I try to start my upgrades soon. And btw, terran vrs protoss is extremely hard for beginners. I mean really hard. So if you lose your next one or two thousand games, don’t trip. keep it pushin.
The best way to learn SC is to first learn your build orders, then play and post replays and ask for help. If you’re friend is getting you with dark templar rush do the standard mech build but make an early engineering bay so you can make turrets for dectections. If he attacks while you’re building turrets, use vulture mines to hold him off.
Standard mech build is this:
9 supply
11 barrack and refinery at the same time
you will have 100 gas when your barrack is finished then you can build a factory
here’s a good thread to visit to help you get started

terran vs any race is hard for beginner haha.
Very important.
edit: i’ll give an example
Lets say you have zealots that have weapons 1 while the zerg didn’t get his carapace 1 upgrade. Zerglings die in 2 hits instead of 3 now.
terran vs terran is really gay
yeah TvT is a buncha sieging and having a floating building spotting lol. The lamest part is when you both are sieged and everyone’s scared to move because you’ll get blown up as soon as you do. I think TvT is the only matchup where they’ve had draws in the professional starcraft leagues. Bluestorm specifically cuz you can sit on each sides of that dried up river thing with your tanks and turrents and nothing can get through.
does anyone ever play on West anymore?
Stork v. GGPlay on Andromeda almost went to a draw, except Stork lied and said he would finish it off soon when the refs came up to him (then he failed a bunch of attacks and dragged the game out like another 15-20 minutes).
