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

Yeah it looks like the re-placements have just placed everybody in daft leagues again

I got placed in Diamond after winning my placement too. my next 2-3 games were against ex top Masters and an ex GM... I suppose in a way it makes people work for their masters badge rather than those that just play their one placement and don't do anything else.

On a side note, if anybody watched my stream last night, my apologies for how terrible I played!

I didn't get to it Indie - but think I'll be watching you Thurs/Friday!
 
I got placed straight back into the same league I finished in.

I think they are going to actually have masters as the top 2% this season. Apparently it was the top 5.5% last season made it to masters.

O and Hellbats are being looked at.....hoorray!
 
Can you guys give me a good site for up-to-date builds? Preferably with as much detail as possible (ie supply by supply and benchmarks to reach).

I look over TL sometimes, but still being a noob I'm not sure which builds are still "viable" in todays game. Therefore I've stuck to the same macro build which has gotten me to Plat but I want to start varying/playing the race.
 
going to stop playing 1 v 1's for now.

Getting too frustrating for me. I'm only Gold league but protoss death ball with 4/5/6 storms is killing me everytime as terran. I'm rubbish with ghosts and trying to EMP them
 
Exact opposite for me as a Gold League Protoss player. I can't take a third base against Terran and they nearly always kill me, plus most Gold League Terrans seem to automatically build vikings which I can't deal with when I have two-three colossus.

You ought to harass more though, you have the benefit of a more mobile army earlier on in the game. If you let Protoss sit and build a deathball then you have a problem.

Or you could try the build I saw last game against Terran I played - a two Thor rush/all-in. Most absurd thing I've ever seen. Seemed to work well for that guy, though.

Just a quick one, if you are having problems with Terran blindly making Vikings, just make 1 and switch to HT's. With or without range that is up to you really. The one colossus making it easier to secure the third and if he begins double Viking production in response to 1 colo and you tech switch his ground army cannot be as strong as yours.

Then it comes down to EMP's/Storms/Positioning/FF's/Upgrades and all those kind of fun things.

Snipe, I find works better if they arent all grouped up. plus the fact, they cant then turn them into Archons once they have used all the storms.
 
Late and hopeful question; anyone know somewhere to watch the Tastosis cast of WCS finals (semis/final) for free?

I already paid for the OSL streams (which became free anyway afterwards!) and have a yearly gom ticket, so yeah... I'm not paying £10 extra but would like to re-watch with the archon cast.
 
This game is full of clowns sometimes, rush away lose all the units them blame you with childish comments like noob player, zzzz or leave after first fight, i have won many a game 2v1 because i stuck in and fight to the death.
