Marine: Hi Zerg! Iam taking your main! Go ahead seige tanks!

Zergling: Not on my watch you aint! Release the Brood Lords!

Marine:

[zlatko]

Marines and tanks soooo good. Think I may have to switch to terran. Not enough terran gaf players anyway.

Am I the only one who thinks Terran is the hardest race to play? I even find zerg makes more sense to me than Terran. My ability to keep money down, execute good build orders, and keep pressure on opponents just sucks on Terran with so much income and options at your disposal.

Semi finals of tl open. Day9 and chill commentating. Currently adelscott vs mana 1-1.


Edit: Adelscott won, it was pretty sexy.

Final is Adelscott vs Thorzain

 

[Cheeto]

Am I the only one who thinks Terran is the hardest race to play?

Wat....yes you might be

 

[fanboi]

Well A move is quite hard.

EDIT: Thorzain in final... played him twice...

yeah... lost, also he isnt unknown top 200 and WC3 pro

As zerg i often think "damn im happy i dont have any income or options"

More on tl open: They are announcing the protoss korean invites for tsl 3 when they come back for the final.

Wall-off. Do harass and expand. Build marines and tanks.

TSL 3 Korean Protoss invites:

NSPGenius
Liquid'Huk (korean? lol)
oGsMC

 

[ShallNoiseUpon]

Genius, Huk and MC

TSL 3 Korean Protoss invites:

NSPGenius
Liquid'Huk (korean? lol)
oGsMC

They said players in Asia are all eligible for Korean invites because they don't have Asian TLOpens








O.O Adelscott is amazing.

 

[Vaporak]

Adell Scott with the much better macro smashes Thorzain.

 

[V_Arnold]

EU-SCII-Gaf night
*warm and fuzzy inside, to quote day9*

 

[ShallNoiseUpon]

Adelscott is so chatty.



I love him.

♥

 

[V_Arnold]

So balanced

 

[V_Arnold]

Especially the last stuff "You wanna drop on MY cliff? Let me show you how a terran can do it "

 

[Vaporak]

That series definitely showed the difference in effectiveness between Terran and Protoss drops, and why so few Protoss see any use for the Warp Prism.

It is not just that, it is that a Medivac has OTHER uses, it is a natural unit to get in every game. When will a warp prism be a natural unit to get in every PVX game? Siege tanks: ditto. Bah, sounds like I am whining about things that I just cant comprehend, but I do not understand how terrans are supposed to have everything within reach, and the most effective. What would the game look like if T's lacked stim and P got something like that? What would the game look like if T units were not with the most range so they can abuse that with Viking-Tank combo (as seen in the last battle, f***** up colossus pretty hard)?

Next two expansions cant come quickly enough for new tools.
Oh, and the new maps are AWESOME, cant wait to see them on ladder. Byebye, LT cliff

 

[Corran Horn]

Went stargate and won against zerg...yay.

I need to practice stargate builds more. Tired of robo colossus ;lol

 

[TheThunder]

Any predictions on who's gonna be the last 10 invites for TSL ?

Zerg: Ret, Idra, NesTea, Fruitdealer (and possibly Zenio or Haypro)

Terran: Jinro, IMMvp, MarineKing, Boxer and Nada

Would've liked to see Tester with Toss but oh well.

warp prism has mutliple purposes as well, it's a dropship and mobile pylon

 

[Aquavelvaman]

It also can be used to absorb small amounts of anti-air fire or if you get enough of them you can spell out secret messages to the spectators.

 

[HolyCheck]

IdrA vs MVP isn't that impressive

so youre saying the mobile pylon power is completely useless?

 

[Vaporak]

so youre saying the mobile pylon power is completely useless?

It's a little bit more useful than a probe tagging along with your army...

 

[Hazaro]

IdrA vs MVP isn't that impressive

smh

 

[Haly]

I dislike using War Prisms is because it ties up my robo for sorely needed Immortals/Observers/Collossi.

Also micro is hard

 

[nilbog21]

wut

i was actually watching his stream when they played, but i had no idea it was mvp lol :[

and that mvp bane split was so fucking wow O_O

 

[Corran Horn]

I forged - Canon behind fast expand zerg just now. I feel shitty for doing that after he said glhf

He didnt even put up a fight after the canons killed like 6 drones

if probes could jump ledges and power things instantly then yeah

obs -> immortal - > prism i find is the best order, then u can just pump whatever from there

It also can be used to absorb small amounts of anti-air fire or if you get enough of them you can spell out secret messages to the spectators.

a small amount is right ...

 

[a176]

marine tank rush vs protoss is so good

 

[Aylinato]

marine tank rush vs protoss is so good

phoenixs and zealots, add some stalkers and one or two sentries to nullify the damage of the marines(+1 armor) and baam marine tank rush fails, miserably



I know how to counter that at least =)



also, my goal for next few weeks is learning how to use stargate tech with gateway units(transitioning and such)

 

[Pandaman]

destiny's stream is amazing right now.

he's coaching this bronzie austrian in zvz and the guy is raging at everything.

Link ?

 

[mescalineeyes]

another austrian? haha

*edit: he's australian :>

 

[Ikuu]

http://www.teamliquid.net/video/streams/Steven.Bonnell.II

Pretty sure he's gold and ignoring everything he's been told.

Edit: It's over now.

 

[Pandaman]

*edit: he's australian :>

nah, he's australian and being trolled hard.
it was really bad, guy kept raging at 10 pools and baneling harasses and ignoring advice.

edit: if destiny and mrbitter both cost the same, why would anyone pick destiny as a coach. >_>

the guy just needed to calm down and keep cool, didnt heklp that destiny trolls his students for the benefit of the stream. he needd mrbitters moment of zen peptalk.

 

[mescalineeyes]

idk, I found destiny to be really helpful and nice. :|
I mean sure he was making jokes but idk, it was entertaining to me too

 

[captmorgan]

I don`t know if this is the proper place to put this but I need some help with my build.

I`ve been working on a very heavy Raven build, but the problem is its leaving me with too much money, since the turret guns just take power I don`t have to buy more.

http://www.sc2replayed.com/replays/135910-1v1-terran-zerg-xelnaga-caverns

If someone wouldn`t mind watching a replay of mine and suggest improvement`s I would be very grateful.

you are terran, make marines. dont need to watch the replay to tell you that.

Spoiler

ill watch it later and try to help you out

 

[captmorgan]

I use to pop out marines like crazy but since I`ve been working on this build it just seems so unneeded. They would just take up food space, and serve no real purpose.

Only seen the start as of yet and the zerg you're fighting against some pretty bad zerg player.

lol. Just because they seem unneeded when you face bronze players doesn't mean you wont need them when you face a silver player.

 

[zlatko]

I think I missed it but what's up with the new sign in screen option of SC-1 and SC-2 now?

 

[Spl1nter]

ptr right? Hopefully means implementation of multiple accounts per cd key so I can have a account to ladder with terran and toss. Just make it so only one account can be active at a time blizzard.

However its highly unlikely that is the case. There was a thread on tl about it.

It's weird because after I saw/did that on the PTR----it now does it on the real game version too that I can pick SC-1 or SC-2. I'd like to have an account on the Korean ladder so I can just use my USA account to level up/not care about stats, and then have my srs bznz account on the Korean ladder.

Edit: Also, why is it so hard to find build orders for this game that aren't from April to August of last year? Some of the stuff is super out dated.

I'm trying to learn some Terran BO's like 1-1-1 and 2rax, but video tutorials sucks due to not being able to see exactly when what is happening. Anyone have a link to these two builds that is 100% correct?

 

[captmorgan]

lol. Just because they seem unneeded when you face bronze players doesn't mean you wont need them when you face a silver player.

Your absolutely correct, I guess I was just getting use to winning with only losing 3-4 marines.

I`ve noticed that in my last 6 or so games it keeps saying I`m favored even though my opponents are much higher ranking than me. When their ranked 40 and I`m 75 shouldn`t they be favored?

"Favored" means that your opponent's hidden MMR is higher than your displayed rating (your ladder points) as far as I know. Also, the ranks in each division don't say a lot because the skill levels of divisions are far from equal.

Neural Parasite probe -> Build Nexus -> Chrono Boost own Hatchery = Win

That sounds like the most nonsensical way of implementing a feature that I can think of. It would make far more sense to just let you keep a single account and separate your ladders for P, T and Z, just like how they do if you have multiple 2v2 partners.
