Yikes, i log on and find sc2 on page 6 of pc games?! :eek: Hope the game's not quite dead yet :(

I want to start playing again at some point, who's still active these days? :)

I've just come back from a two week holiday, but I'm playing again now! We must play more!

For some reason I've found myself getting bored of HOTS a lot quicker than I got bored of Wings when it first came out. Maybe then it was a case of starting in bronze, learning the game and moving up the ladder to diamond so signs of progress. Whereas in HOTS I placed in diamond, stayed in diamond and never go up or down?

Whatever it is, I'm bored now :(

Thats probably just the plateau you reach.

I believe they have also changed it so you can no longer be demoted.... which I think sucks!
 
I started playing this at the start of HOTS, after having WOL and only doing the Campaign and not touching Multiplayer.

I have got into the Multiplayer recently and am a BRONZE LEAGUE HERO!

However, I'm watching all my replays and picking up where I went wrong to improve and remember throughout my next games.

If anyone's interested in some minor coaching and 2v2 games, I'd very much appreciate it!

It's an amazing game and one anyone with a sense of competitiveness within themselves should try.

Try rerolling race.

I was diamond toss in WoL.

I rerolled a few months ago and started from bronze with Zerg. Now knocking back on the Diamond door! I find Zerg way more rewarding and enjoyable to play.
 
I play about 10 games a month and this maintains my interest. Helps that I don't have much time to play. Quite happy sitting on the verge of diamond. Got placed in gold and only seem to lose vs very good plats and above. Want to reroll and start in bronze, but imagine I'd get promoted to gold quite quickly and get stomped more often than not.
 
Was watching the MLG stream or whatever tourny it was and switched to his stream and after about 20 mins he asked for some people to join a chat channel. I popped in and got picked. About 3k people watching me on stream too, funny seeing myself on it.
 
Anyone on here still active?

OcUK chat is officially dead I think. Not seen anyone in it for months.

Getting bad ladder anxiety at the mo. Think I'm about to break into diamond 1v1 for the first time, constantly getting pitted vs diamond players and don't want to end my winning streak :x
 
i'm on and off a bit still but like you - stuck in gold and got ladder anxiety big time!

Enjoying 2 v 2 but so many numpties still around. Played with a guy the other day who triple expanded from the start as protoss, 9 mins into game he had nothing but 3 bases and 56 probes. Safe to say when the terran deathball rolled into town, i couldn't hold it on my own - he was attempting to take his 4th base and had the cheek to call me a noob!
 
Well I always suspected but playing late at night, around 2-5am is baaad. Only the really good players play then and I got 8 high diamonds in a row. Really shows you how far you've come when you play a few long macro games vs very very good players.
 
I'll get back into it eventually! I don't seem to have the mental capacity to play 1v1's atm.. just been doing team games and Marine Arena as some mindless fun after work n stuff!...

when does the new season start? might see if I can get back into it!
 
I am hoping the balance patch brings the overseer speed buff. I hate Bio/Mine with a passion.

One little micro error and half the banelings disappear leading to getting rolled, nothing makes me more angry than having the overseer, with the speed upgrade, trundling at the back of the army.
