Yeah, but then a scanner sweep reveals them and then they just fry in the ground.
I actually had no idea about autocast for unburrow. I just tried it out and that’s amazing. Thanks.
Although, the idea of burrowed remote mines in the form of banelings is still the coolest to me.
oh fasho man. you still in okinawa? maybe ill have a completely no lag game finally. Im playing against US people cuz i wanted to play against people who spoke english hehe.
Yeah I’m in Oki still rocking that fiber optic.
I love when idiots try to block them self off

I see your location is Japan, and now that I’m paying attention, so it’s m00b’s. Are you guys in the NA region or did you buy for a different region?
edit: nm
If they’ve saved up energy for a scanner sweep just to attack your burrowed drones, then you’re already in a good position, because that costs them 270 minerals just for some drone harassment. It also buys you time to get your defenses back to fight the hellions while he scans, and then if he does you just unburrow and move away like you would have in the first place.
I will hopefully be on this weekend to get some games in, I havent had much time to play lately : (
God fucking DAMMIT. I just played a long ass fucking game where I successfully broke the Terran contain on my base but still managed to lose. FJDKFSJDFJDSF:LJDSF:JDS:S:s It’s okay even though I was able to get to 2 base he still had the same income while building bunkers & missile turrets oustide my shit just because of MULEs. I hate Terran so much right now.
Yeah, I dont know what to think of MULES. I mean, its a cool mechanic, but it really really lets Terran run off 1 base for way too long. Sure he mines out faster, but then he can build his CC in his base and then float it out when its time to expand anyway, so it’s really safe.
I don’t think Terran is unbeatable, but I think its like Sagat in Vanilla SF4, he doesn’t have any losing matches
As much as I can hate on MULEs my main problem with Terran is the amount of shit I have to watch out for. It’s waaay beyond playing against other races. Vs. Toss I’m basically worried about 2-4 gate, proxy shenanigans, or fast tech. I’m not trying to simplify them as a race because how they follow up on any of this is totally in the hands of the player but those are the three builds I can basically bet on seeing against toss. Against Zerg the situation is very similar, is he going mass ling? How soon is he getting roaches? Honestly you can summarize the entirety of an opposing zerg’s play just by figuring out how many bases he has.
But Terran…dear God Terran. Is it going to be a timing attack with marines and early rax? Is it going to be reaper harass? Is he going to switch his reactor to the factory for hellion harass? How about maintaining a small amount of harass until banshees with another tech switch to continue while I don’t have much in the terms of AA? He might go for bunker contain, he might go for full out tech or just a giant MMM ball to attack me. Hell, even proxy shenanigans are somewhat common with Terran. If he’s good enough you won’t be able to scout him effectively after that wall is up either.
The MULEs just add insult to injury. 
i’m gonna start slowly switching over to terran and see if i like them more than protoss
im practicing the 3 rax build, and i’m also practicing 1:1:1, those should be solid enough tools for all the matchups.
goddamnt! i just got promoted to silver league, which usually is a good thing but im still horrible!
almost all of my wins have come against protoss who couldnt stall my marauder+medivac push till colusses comes out. I just kite them around. Dont know how protoss deal with em. I usually am making some vikes for those colusses too. Well at least low-tier toss players.
The other times I win against other races(rare) is if I go all in MMM ball really early or i tech up to banshees real fast. such noobnes heh.
gonna be adding some of yall.
btw you cant get demoted can you?
You can get demoted if you keep losing games.
[IEM] Gamescom Day 4 + TLO vs NaDa!
Everyone need to watch this. For one, it’s the hypest tourney yet and 2nd, you won’t be able to watch the vods later because ESL’s servers are shit even if you pay for premium.
try burrowed infestors spewing infested rans outside an opponents nat. hella funny
kind i had wish now that i bombed placements so i end up in the lower leagues so i can do funny TLO-esque stuff 
LEE YUN YEOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL
but srsly, nada has his work cut out for him in this one 0.0
Unless I constantly keep a bunch of stalkers near my mineral line or build 6-8 cannons there, terran always end up raping my probes.
I think thats a bit silly, 2 well placed cannons can deter any dropships from dropping into your minerals. If the opponent has massed enough air units to actually take out your cannons, you should have already had a counter ready (Phoenixes beat banshees for free), except for 2 cases:
You’re not having enough map awareness to know what your opponent has, in which case you’re just gambling anyhow on your unit composition
You’re not building enough fighters to keep up with his army, because if he’d dedicated that much money and food into harassing, his main base should be easy to steam roll through if you kept up on army size
You can try a few simple things, such as observers seeing what he’s going for in his base, observers just outside his base or on flight/attack paths to your base, or scattered pylons also placed in key paths. Sure they might get killed, but if you see them coming you have a heads up to get ready without needing to waste 1000’s of minerals on cannons
Terran is OP. I made an account using a guest pass, and tried Terran for the very first time. I easily won all of my placement matches and got put into Platinum.
I think I may go back to Protoss.
I’m not sure if they’re that overpowered, but yes they are a breeze to play, especially if you are used to the campaign where it teaches you the basics of that race
I have never played the campaign of SC1 or SC2. They’re not OP, but they’re def SF4/ST O. Sagat, or maybe even 3S Chun-Li.
I went back to Protoss though, I definitely like their play better.
I’m having so much trouble keeping up with a kajillion things at once as Zerg…
I watched my latest replay and I had a 3rd base with no geysers that I didn’t notice for the duration of the game and I was being bottle necked by gas with like 3000 minerals. At the end of the game my queens had 200 energy pretty much. It seems like I try to focus on one area for the game (like map awareness and overlord placement that game) and other things fall off like larva production. Zerg is so frustrating to me…
Also… does Fungal Growth prevent Vikings from landing?
