This games takes Rock Paper Scissors and adds sucker punch to the throat.
LOL. i felt the same way when i was starting up. i bet its the entry chokes that annoy you, huh? when youre lings cant get in to harrass?
if i cant get in quick enough to harrass, then i just spawn like crazy and have a group of banes ready to take out the choke and rush in and mess up their mineral line… takes them forever to recover, if they havent quit already, then just keep massing and make sure to keep them from making air units. i, personally, have a hard time against terrans that go air really fast.
Re: Hydras
If you’re going to use hydras, make sure you spread that creep! Hydras are notoriously slow and bad off creep; put them on some, and they’re really good. So make sure to spend some of that time and APM on getting that creep spread forward towards your opponent as soon as you can so when your hydras go into attack mode, they devastate.
Less important with Mutas, but still important because your zerglings/roaches will thank you
I’ve been doing the “baneling bust” but I just can’t close out games when I have the bigger economy and the army. This is my first RTS so I’m going keep trying but fuck is this game more rage inducing than Fighters/FPS.
GGs Iren, Reazen, and Magnifico. Especially the 4v4 lol.
Even as a Terran player I hate Terran. In TvT I try to go all in fast so I don’t have to play a 2hr game with tanks and vikings.
good games, and yeah haha i play random but when I draw TvT I do the exact same thing for the exact same reason
Get lair tech and upgrade a few overloards to Overseers.(you should be doing this always anyway) and use their Spawn Changeling ability. you can also burrow or place a zergling at there ramp to see when they push out.
Thanks for the insight ya’ll. If anyone wants to add me just look up mrmamation@yahoo.com, I would have looked up my id but I pretty much got back from work-sleept-woke up-go to work… Or fuck it I’ll add some of ya’ll.
Also I am in bronze cause I just dove right into the fray not knowing what I was doing.
Atm I think I’ll spawn the shit out of hydras and get a couple queens to counter VRs until I figure out what the opponents bases look like and what they spawn. All their shit looks the same to me.
And I see what you mean about the extractor trick Inc, you do it to just one and you can spawn an overlord and a drone at once as apposed to waiting.
Terran players troll too damn much by extending a game they’re losing. Shit makes me hate this game so hard.
lol thats just super scrubby BM. Pretty much a lot of people do it in lower leagues, expand all over the map when they’re losing.
That’s what I do but it’s still annoying lol
Man, you’d think that the Zerg would evolve SOME kind of fucking flame resistance or at least specific strain being as their homeworld is a giant fireball named CHAR.
I can appreciate the “fire kills aliens” mythology as much as the next guy, but come on. Gotta call some continuity BS on that.
Just a thought.
Seems like the only way I can win with Zerg is mass roaches and mutas, cant win with anything else
HELP ME: What’s the best way to input a command for CTRL 1-4? I like making groups for my units, but it’s akward for me to use my left pinky finger to hit the CTRL key and my left indext finger to hit 1-3 at the same time. Weird question, hard to understand, but it’s basically a typing/finger positioning question. Annoying.
Everyone should watch this, especially if you’re new to the game:
Day[9] Daily #132 - Back to the Basics: The Mental Checklist
Just rebind your keys. The easiest way I know of is to turn ~ into ctrl and ctrl into ~ for StarCraft II.
Hoooooly crap Day[9] is long winded. I never listened to him much before and he has a lot of good examples but damn does he take forever to make a simplistic point sometimes.
I love day 9, I loved the SC2 launch event he threw; had a lot of fun and owned SC players all day at SF4 haha.
I watch his daily every day, he has a lot of good shows. A lot of good things to think about as a player; from phase 1 to launch I didnt play hardly at all, but just from watching Day 9 my MP play was 3 times better because of my mentality going into the matches. Big props to him.
PLLLLLLLLLLLLLLAAAAAGUUUUUUUU
Also, [media=youtube]a3I5h7UaOuk[/media]
I should be on for some matches tonight as well, havent played the past 3 nights : (
Man Terran is the most infuriating race to play against. They have an answer for EVERYTHING.
