Tahvo Posted October 26, 2010 Share Posted October 26, 2010 I'm on a like 6 game win streak. probably cause my record was like 35-50, and they try to keep you at a 50/50 w/l ratio so they paired me against easy opponents, but who cares, I feel good. One game he had tons of roaches but I microed some stalkers like a boss and took him out. Edit: Hey, ElkNight, You messaged me but i was in the middle of a 2v2. (We won btw). Yeah, that's me.

Fizzzard Posted October 28, 2010 Share Posted October 28, 2010 So two of my friends, one platinum league, one diamond, entered a 2v2 tournament. There first opponents are a Terran and a Protoss player, specifically Select and Huk, numbers 1 and 2 respectively in North America. So yeah, they won't be getting far in that tournament. 66,275th to 99 Cooking 73,802nd to 99 Fletching 8,839th to 99 Smithing 71,320th to 99 Magic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only gold. Playing knowing 1.5k people are watching it live turns out isn't the best situation to be in, nerves really got to me and that's probably the worst I've ever played.

doomy Posted November 12, 2010 Share Posted November 12, 2010 :P nice I need to get into silver league but I cbf playing 1v1, when I get promoted it'll probaly be to gold league because I face gold/platinum players most often.. Also wow just playd awfully with friends in some 4v4, lost a 4v3 game ... everytime I pushed out they sent masses of speedlings into my base and killed all of my drones..... so frustrating. I don't normally play zerg though so meh.. Doomy edit: I like sheep Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tahvo Posted November 15, 2010 Share Posted November 15, 2010 I finally started playing the campaign and did all the missions up for supernova, and damn that mission is hard. I walk into the base with like 3 thors, buncha goliaths, probably 10 banshees, couple of science vessels and just get TROUNCED. Starcraft 2 - PCTahvo.617.

All_Bogs Posted November 22, 2010 Share Posted November 22, 2010 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fzMhh8zhTiY, because SC2 is more awesome than Justin Bieber :P I should probably play this game more... As for Supernova, cleared it without too much effort using ye olde marine-marauder-medic squads. I only played on medium difficulty, though.

Tahvo Posted November 23, 2010 Share Posted November 23, 2010 Yeah I saw that video too, actually I was listening to it while browsing Tif lol.

doomy Posted November 23, 2010 Share Posted November 23, 2010 Who says he's horrible... He does actually have good knowledge of the game and he's funny as well.If you watch the 1v1s of himself that he did a while back you can tell he would be a high rank diamond player... Also... BANELINGS BANELINGS BANELING ooh Doomy edit: I like sheep Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BANELINGS BANELINGS BANELING ooh No, he doesn't. His commentary can be fun to watch, but if you're expecting to learn for it, you're barking up the wrong tree. He makes plenty of mistakes during his casts when talking about the strengths/weaknesses of various plays, and also makes some rather poor recommendations. Also, it doesn't take much to be a high rank Diamond player. I made it to top 10 Diamond during the beta with little to no trouble. I placed into Platinum since release and could easily move up if I wanted to, but haven't really played much. Despite the rank, I'm a pretty crappy player. Diamond doesn't mean you're a good player, it means you can hold off cheese builds and common timed push/rush builds, and you can maintain high production and a strong economy. There are enough players that can't do the above that anyone who can is basically automatically pushed to Diamond. Even in Diamond, a lot of players pave their way with 7 Roach Rushes or 4 Gate / 3 Rax builds. Simply being able to hold these off is usually enough for you to advance. Husky isn't a bad player, but he's not notably better than typical high diamonds. Even his casting partner back in the beta, HDStarcraft (I heard they had a falling out recently?), played significantly better, although Husky was certainly more interesting to watch.

After watching Day9, Psystarcraft and Tasteless+Artosis on GOMtv (I got a season ticket there for GSL2 and GSL3 :)!), Husky is very inferior in general game knowledge and being able to cast professionally. But Husky is still very fun to watch because he's funny (in a different way from Day9). [insert birds flying in a circle here]Yes, that sig was annoying.
