Wat. How is the public darwinism of a company that has made several very good games something positive? u r nuts ilovevexboi

MLG Dallas caster lineup:

So we're trading no rob simpson/kibbelz for no tasteless/artosis

i wish we could trade day9 for husky, too

Did the new season start today or does it actually start tomorrow?

I logged in, not having played a 1v1 match in 25 weeks and it still tells me to play 1 match to be placed.

Maybe that fixed it?

Today.

I skipped the entire last season so I assume my mmr is reset?

No. It should still say to play 1 match. I've skipped 2 seasons and it still tells me to play 1 match.

I got dropped to diamond for this season. I've been working on my terran cheese recently, so I think I might switch to terran or random.

OT Brag

yaaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyy just won a fcoopevent and will get one of these fancy bracelets

I think you have to skip 3 seasons for it to reset. Back in diamond after 1 season back from 2 year hiatus. Finished season 1 top of my diamond league before they had a masters. Didn't play till last season and had to play 5 matches. Was put in gold league.

It's not 3 seasons.

grats ninash!

Just visited my parents and they asked me if I got a nice series for them to watch, so I brought Game of Thrones with me. I planned to just go for dinner there and then head home and go out drinking or something ... my father was like "yeah I watch one episode"

7 episodes later they really had to go to bed because they had to get up in 4 hours

Quite ridic how much I forgot about the first Season too, so it wasnt boring for me(Or how much stuff I missed because I tought it wasn`t important).

i think i've seen the first season of GoT at least four times. it really is good every time.

sea is so funny when he notices cloaked banshees while offracing as zerg

that's basically a huge win-win, hardly a trade of any sorts

rob simpson is doing an awful job of observing so it's only sort of a win-win lol

T_T

Leenock with the gosu baneling mines vs Bomber.

Sup Protosses, let's talk about playing against Terran.

So, you send a probe to build your first gateway and then out in the world to scout. He gets to the Terran ramp and discovers it's walled off.

You then... (fill in the blank!)


Basically, I'm having difficulty determining my next course of action when I have nfi what the Terran is doing, and it's forever until I have the ability to scout him. In a game today I built 2 gates and a robo to try to get an observer out asap...and then before I got a chance to even scout it he was all in with a marine push and I wasn't even close to holding.

Seems like no matter what the T can put you in a bad spot - he could 1 rax FE and just build the CC on the high ground (so you don't scout it) and you'd be behind economically if you build too many gates, or he could go for some kind of AI and you'd probably just die if you expanded too soon.

scout after pylon

New scenario. We're playing on Entombed and I scout 2 wrong positions before finally finding him and by then the wall is up. You...

unless i have reason to think he's cheesing me, i just do my normal build order

zealot--stalker--stalker and pressure a bit with those to see if there's a CC down (or at least a bunker)...bunker means that it's either 1rax FE or some sort of 111, if he lets you right up his natural ramp then poke his main ramp. if there's a bunker there then definitely a 111 probably with tanks and banshees. if there's a tech lab, obvi it's a 2rax and you need gates before robo

if it's a reactor then it could be either 111 or 2rax. keep poking and see what comes to kill you

thrown down nexus

then robo before gates to get observers out asap unless you have reasoning to think it's a 2rax

You keep poking up ramp with probe to see what units he is building.

Or pretty much what ^^^^ said above me. I'm slow pony

i just watched the GSTL games where slayers put eve in against sniper and she did a 4factory helion build....then apparently looked like she was crying after it lost?

and people are bitching about jessica again?

does anyone understand wtf is going on
