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

The guy I work with got into Masters half way through last season and had about a 25% win rate (most matches seemed to be top Masters/GM) and he won his placement but got placed in Diamond.

I would kind of like a tournament on here, however I do have a feeling I would be the whipping-boy :p

Gonna do them now :D



DeMuslim is awesome, I really hope he can translate his improvement over the last year into some tournament results. He's an entertaining player to watch (action all over the map) and a nice guy too. There are still plenty of SC2 players and fans in the UK but don't seem to be very concentrated in any particular area so it's hard to really meet many. I don't know why but it seems like the scandinavian esports scene is far larger than over here despite us having like triple the population of all of the scandinavian countries added together. It's a shame but doesn't matter too much to me. I can follow all the major tournaments via streams and I can play SC2 with my flatmate so I'm happy. It'd be nice to get some OcUK tournaments on the go though, but I'm not sure there's enough people on here to make much of it. I'm sure there enough players but I guess most of them don't bother reading this thread.



You mean the placements at the start of HotS or the placements today for season 2? It'd be weird if today's placements treated people like new players...

BTW update your man cave thread! ^_^

Had a look around, theres a UK clan called Roar, they have some good Grandmaster/Masters players. very few that are common knowledge though (at least to me, having not played in so long) - Dignitas have BlinG/DreaM as well I think, or at least they did!

I meant the first set of placements, the 5 that you play when you first get placed.

In terms of man cave, the missus has caught on, told me I need to do some things in the house too :p - also lack of funding, as recently needed to buy new gear for my American Football! :(

Could always try and run a league instead of a tournament. For example: anybody on here can enter, everybody plays each other twice and have set points of wins/loss, cut off point can be on a monthly basis or even run with the seasons? so you have to play your games within a time frame.

I dunno, just ideas :) sometimes nicer and less competitive than an actual tournament!
 
vipers get used often mostly get against toss, tempest are kinda situational because they take so long to get and only good vs certain things, hellbats get used a **** ton mostly drops because they slaughter workers, oracles are used pretty often, mothership cores are used every game, swarm hosts are probably the most underused but you still see them now and again, so I'm not sure what game you are watching :P

This! :)

I'm trying to incorporate more and more swarmhost play.

My opening ZvP is generally always swarmhost contain, into Roach/Hydra/Viper
In ZvT I tend to only use them against Terran Mech as MMM is just too mobile. However have had some success with Swarmhost infestor contains
ZvZ, swarmhost infestor is amaaaazing! only used it a couple of times though, as I tend to go with Muta these days
