Watching Starcraft II games as a sport is mad fun
 
Man, u can have ur football and baseball, I'm watching Starcraft!

Watching these pros play with an amazing commentator is great.

^ Great game! Any Starcraft II pros here?

Back when I used to play Starcraft 2, I loved watching it. Idra (If I remember his name correctly) is a huge faggot and probably still is.

Way too hardcore for me. Never watched a tourny, though. Wouldn't even know what's going on as far as the meta-game goes.

All of my friends stopped playing and I got sick of having to completely re-do my build orders with the way Blizzard was doing their patches.

It just stopped being fun.

Im playing the starter edition (u can only play as terran) and getting my ass kicked over and over and over :/

But it still fun, so im being a huge punching bag. Do I actually need to go and DL build orders to win?

Verbose Minch 05-01-2012 04:28 PM

You don't download build orders. There are recommended build orders on various Starcraft wiki's.

A build order (At least how I used them) is basically when you build certain units and certain buildings at specific times. Essentially what you feel works the best for you.

Obviously you want to have different build orders against different races, and you don't want to lock yourself into it either. You have to be able to adapt, and you have to be able to judge what your opponent is doing based on what your scout sees.

If I remember later, I'll find some build orders for Terran's and post them for you.

I usually end up mixing all sorts of units together and then the enemy rushes into my base with like 2x the units I have and beats me (if he gets to my base before my partners).

Didn't you have a thread just like this last week?

You're probably sitting on a lot of minerals. You should always have as little minerals as possible, you always want them invested in something.

PrettyCool 05-01-2012 05:06 PM

Kane Knight : That was a different game.

One round I played two days ago, at the end, I had "most resources gathered", but my "army" got annihilated. I had tons of random units, a few upgrades, and two bases...:/

Verbose Minch 05-01-2012 05:11 PM

Gathering a lot of resources is great, it's what you invest them in that is important.

Different game, identical concept that was so identical to one of your prior threads it was merged.

I think that match up there would itnerest me if I had any idea what was going on.

Yeah Starcraft is a complicated game thats why its not as popular as call of duty

Kane Knight 05-02-2012 11:09 AM

Everything's complicated when you don't know the rules.

Which probably makes tying your shoelaces a rather complicated affair for you, PrettyCool.

Bad Company 05-02-2012 11:13 AM

I watch a lot of LoL streams, nice to get some tips from the pros, and they are pretty entertaining.

Its okay, your mom ties my shoes for a lil somethin somethin :naughty:

SlickyTrickyDamon 05-02-2012 12:03 PM

Watching somebody play a video game like its a sport will never appeal to me except if AJ Lee is playing. Though I'd probably be mainly looking at her ass. Just sayin'

No it doesnt, I just know what can/will happen and I avoid it because im not on "that level" yet.

Thats Iop's thread, not my.

Funky Fly 05-04-2012 02:26 AM

Riiiiiiight.

Either way, it's still on the first page and relates to this. It's proper forum etiquette to check for recent threads relating to the same subject before you go creating new threads.

Come on I cant go and check everything before I make a post, thats ridicuoulous. Pretty much everything ever has already been posted anyway unless its a news item.

Funky Fly 05-04-2012 04:34 PM

Um, no. That's how it's done. There's a search button right at the top of the page. Use it.

Fuck and you wonder why everyone gets on your case.

thats retarded just because something was discussed in the past doesnt meaen u cant discuss it again

Funky Fly 05-04-2012 04:50 PM

That thread isn't even a week old and it's on the front page. It's right there for you to continue discussing. Haven't you noticed how some of these threads have 50 pages or more? It's directly because people use the same thread for the same topic.

PrettyCool 05-07-2012 12:40 PM

I cant seem to win a single match. I won one but it was 2v2 and my teammate took both of the other 2 down. This game is maddd hard
