Wow, congrats! Me being away helped you

Angrist · 12-22-2010, 01:13 PM

Thanks.

I'll be at my family in the next few weeks, so we won't be able to play for a while...
Gives you time to work on your 1v1 skills.

I know you can be at least silver!

Bube · 12-25-2010, 10:13 AM

Meh, maybe I would if I found the time, but I just can't play as much as I'd like to..

And I've decided to cut back on all kinds of multiplayer games, I miss single player games

I've now beat the whole campaign on Brutal difficulty.

Only 2 levels were really hard... and they were so hard that I needed to look up some tips. It turns out I was making the wrong units.

So I am now the owner of a sweet Kerrigan avatar!

Bube · 01-11-2011, 05:12 PM

Wow, congrats! We should start playing again

I haven't logged in in about a month. I never feel like playing knowing that you won't be playing again

Yeah, I hate 1v1

BUBE! Where are you man, you're missing all the fun!

Do you still watch Day9? Next Funday Monday is 'don't expand to your natural'. I never tried the Fundays because I wanted to climb the ladder (and using some weird strat doesn't help much). But now that I don't care much, I decided to join in.

So I've been playing some interesting matches where I expanded anywhere but to my natural. And I think I've won more than 50%.

I don't really see all that much benefits, other than that it shows you how easy it is to defend an expansion. And sometimes you can trick your opponent into believing you're still on 1 base.

Bube · 01-24-2011, 02:39 PM

Lol, I just saw this

Yesterday was a coincidence

That not expanding to natural seems pretty easy for me, as I already don't expand myself

I have tons to learn

Today I had to fight a player from the Master league for the first time. And I won.

If I keep that up, I might be promoted one day.

At the moment I'm rank 3 in my division of Diamond.

Bube · 03-15-2011, 05:12 PM

I still haven't touched the game since the 4-in-a-row..

Angrist · 03-15-2011, 07:14 PM

Tonight I did some 3v3s. In one game I had noob allies (the mute and selfish kind), in the second game we messed up because we attacked way too late.

Bube · 03-16-2011, 05:43 AM

Attacking late is our worst enemy! If we're not rushed very early, and we lose, it's almost always because we attacked too late

Angrist · 06-02-2011, 06:03 AM

So do we need a new thread for Heart of the Swarm, or do we use this one?

Because there's been an info blowout. http://eu.battle.net/sc2/en/game/hea...swarm-preview/

Angrist · 01-24-2012, 05:57 PM

Does anyone still play this?

I do. Still in Diamond League.
The game has evolved a bit in the last half year. My strategies that worked so well suddenly aren't that good anymore. So now I'm trying some new strats... and I suck. My strategy vs Zerg is decent, against Terran is just plain terrible. Oh but my Protoss vs Protoss is great, I win around 90% of that.

So now I try to practice more, play at least 4 games a day. I know I can be better than this, it just takes time...

Angrist · 03-13-2012, 06:35 PM

After I moved to my new house I decided to train a lot more for SC2. At the moment I'm doing great, I won 13 out of my last 16 matches. I'm top Diamond, but I want to get promoted to Master league. Only then can I say I belong to the top 2% of active SC2 players.

I'm playing around 8 matches a day, which takes a few hours. And I'm having a great time. =)

Say hi to the newest Starcraft 2 1v1 Master.
