I don't get why this undeserving class S player doesn't switch from Colossus to HTs and make all those Vikings paper weight.
I don't think I've ever been so frustrated by a loss than this particular game.
Replay -- http://replayfu.com/r/MK2Gtn
He opens 4 warp gate with warp in from behind the rocks on Jungle Basin, I hold it off. I scout him and see double Stargate, I drop a Hydra Den and expand to my third. What I didn't see was him dropping a dark shrine, which basically crippled my army since his DTs caught me off guard.
From there, I found it pretty much impossible to attack because he could take out my detection with ease and his DTs would wreck my army. The battle at his third is a prime example of this.
Stargate + DT is the bane of my existence -- I crumble to it.
Advice would be appreciated.
(Side note -- I know my macro was pretty awful that game!)
Edit - I watched the replay and I think my entire mess up was the attack on the third. I think I should have sat back and macro'd up (even though I was close to max ..), or attacked better (he had an awesome concave, I had.. nothing -- I could have flanked from the back, or something).
I really hate Jungle Basin as a map. It's so claustrophobic and all the expansion locations for possible thirds are vulnerable as hell. Meh.

OMG, everyone needs to watch this SC2 mod. Some people are so damn awesome with the SC2 engine! (Skip to halfway point for intense action)

Observer seeing warp prism and catches it as DTs come into base.
I just had a fun match on jungle basin vs a terran. He was really good (for us both being silver :lol ) he harassed really well at the start of the game with banshees and drops and then he went in to a really strong macro game after that where he was out expanding me. It was fun to play someone trying to play the "right" way.
Except that i lost, that sucked.

Fuuuucking thors with scvs :/
Too bad the demo isn't a short prequel campaign again, like it was for the Warcraft 2, Starcraft and Warcraft 3 demos. Though with the ridiculous amount of polish and unique assets that the single player levels have, it probably would be prohibitive to produce 3 new levels that are representative of the retail game just for a demo. Was kind of a cool thing they did with those demos though, IIRC the SC1 demo for instance took place on Chau Sara, the planet that had just been turned into a crisp by the Protoss when you start the retail campaigns.

I have this really weird thing going on where I can't see the options for matchmaking, and can't click find match either.
Am I the only one?

Nope, same here. I assume a battle.net issue.

Maybe it is the patch/reset? Probably not because they said next year but one can hope!

Matchmaker is down, no patch or anything like that.

i swear to idra, if shakuras goes im switching to protoss.Vaporak said:Noooooooo, Shakuras Plateau seems to be taken out of the map pool.
I saw a thread about it on TL and logged in to check the map preferences and it's GONE. Hopefully this is a bug and Blizzard isn't trying to make the map pool worse.

I wouldn't do something that radical, but as most of EU GAF knows, Shakuras is my favorite map of any game ever :/
The shakuras being gone is probably because they are fixing that bug where you can place an invisible pylon and then warp stuff in without the opponent knowing you can.

However if its not because of this then its the worst thing to ever happen.

Deadman said:
It's not just pylons, anything that can fit in that little space is invisible, most notably a Dark Shrine and a Spire fit. Hopefully they're just fixing that and the map will be back soon. Though I hope Blizzard rotates out some of the worse maps and puts in some better ones soon.
