**** Original Starcraft 2 Thread ****

works against everyone. there is bugger all you can do to counter other than run and then your econs bugger.
 
I have that T-Shirt too
and the GF will not let me wear it since she worked out what it was!

ah, GF was jealous of mine so i wore it more :p

what is it, 8 pool rush? Tied it 2 or 3 times and didnt work against 1 protoss player

Pretty easy counter, most toss players will be prepared for a ling rush if you're playing zerg on a reasonably small map.

Reapers do seem to be a problem at the moment, need to get on a few games tomorrow and see what can be done to counter :(

(easily solution: play terran :D)
 

Entered, if I win a key i'll donate to OcUK :cool:

(Didn't Kreeee make a thread for people desperate for keys? :confused:)

just been called gay for winning somebody who was at rank 47 in 6 min 6 seconds , i am ranked at 79th place lol . he did not like it one bit

always fun when people get annoyed at you for winning :D nicely done (reapers?)
 
Started playing terran abit over thursday/friday.. manged to get rank 5 in gold.. but still sluggish and not learnt proper hotkeys yet. Will probably stick with Zerg though :)
 
I hate it when the protoss come into my base and warp in some Gas Refineries on my gas!

The buggers!

They also try to find a corner in my base and start putting pylons and turrets down!

It's so scumbbag it's not even slightly funny.

But I shall remain Terran!

Takes a few minutes to actually start taking advantage of a proxy, plus for them to actually do it requires:
100 for proxy pylon
150 * 2 = 300 mins for (say) 2 photon cannons
150 mins for forge
150 mins for Cyber core
50 mins and 50 gas for the warp gate upgrade

TBH even that shouldnt be too hard to take down as terran, and you've effectively set them back 550 minerals that should have gone into unit production (most toss players should go for warp gate regardless of whether they have proxies out).

so if you can take their sneaky build down it'll set them back a fair amount..If you've been unit building just rush them at that point and you should have the win. Just make sure you find it early!!!!!!!
 
need to work out my starting build better for terran
do people genrally go 2 or 3 SCVs before block or just 1?
 
9 depot
10 rax (get 2 marines)
12 gas
14 upgrade cc and second depot at choke

Is that just standard BO?
Just wondering as ive only just started Terran properly, and thats sort of what BO i've got, cept i do 13 gas, make much difference?

That's the thing, it was really annoying, i never even found the damn pylon and turret, until it was to late.

The most annoying has to be building extractors on your gas, they just come in as soon as they can start building and run for the hills.

If you've not a block by then or some marines you're done for.

Since it effectively just slowed down all your proggress for the rest of the game.

Someone did this to me when i was zerg. Didnt know what they were thinking really because i ignored it and rushed with the 8 pool thing and wiped out all their remaining probes and a pylon. They then left game :)
