5 Games as Zerg in a row.

My last game i had 200/200 hydras 8 expos and 2200 Resource Collection.

If you use nydus all over the map with hydras as long as your the one having your main hit,

you can tear up their base with a single nydus before they can base race you to death.

Tonight alone I went 10-1 in my game streak.

In case people are wondering there really are map hacks in this game, proof positive:

I'm pretty convinced. I hope he gets banned. Maybe people knew this already though? :laugh:

Damn, that's pretty blatant. I'm glad that guy put the video together to point it out.

Yea, its stupid. Blizzard are trying to make scouting a not-so-big factor. Damn the casual gamers! :(

Or both things, decrease the damage, but slightly, like 5 or something, not 15, and increase the costs slightly (15~20 minerals/gas).

It's not just the scouting/recon; it's that the Zerg have a built-in advantage there (starting out with an Overlord). Throw in the low cost of Zerg upgrades and expansions and both Terran and Protoss players start off at a disadvantage (especially if they wait and do the recon/scouting properly).

Balance, balance, balance!

Wait wait, why would nerfing zealots help with the early advantage that zerg get towards scouting? What you say doesn't make sense if I'm reading it correctly.

meh?

Zerg have had this "built-in advantage" since SC1

and continued to have it in BW

if it was truly unbalance i'm sure it wouldn't take Blizzard and the entire country of South Korea 12 years to figure it out

Finished it already?

Nope, only the first 5 missions. Though, I play them on all difficulties, starting from Brutal, and then going down (for achievements and for stats (you can see if you haven't played a particular mission on a particular difficulty in the Mission Archive)).

By the way, Lost Viking is a nice touch. :)

Then you really haven't played brutal at all. It gets more difficult as you go on.

So I won my first placement match. I don't dare play another match now D:

Also, the sheer amount of elitism from players in the higher leagues is astounding. The official forums are just full of "oh but your opinion doesn't matter, little bronze leaguer". I know that you end up with idiots in all games, but Starcraft 2 really does seem to attract them. Really puts me off the multiplayer in general.

haha, Bring it!

Literally i'll hop on in a few and take you on buddy. :)

Duality, the people on blizzards forums are almost all pathetic teeners thinking they are the greatest.

The sad thing is, most of the people you meet who played starcraft 1 and were good.

Are nothing like them.

My clan and I are release day of starcraft 1 till release day of starcraft 2 players.

We all agree that blizzard forums are trash for even talking about the game.

Now only if the mods, made a starcraft area on here.

Hmmmmmm ;).

They were BMING me and I tore them up with mass reapers all they had to do was go a single siege tank, or else a few banshees and they could of killed me.

Mass muta at the end was nice except that i had more reapers then they had muta so bye bye zergie base.

    • Ford execs say they made a mistake when they replaced human engineers with AI

      How many other companies will follow Ford's lead? Or, have they already gotten lazy and become enslaved to AI--and now can't figure out how to get out of that mess.
    • The Trump administration doesn't want you to use OpenAI's GPT-5.6 without its approval

      Why would any self-respecting intelligent person follow any recommendation by Donald's GOP administration? With almost two years of fabrications, deceit, and blatantly illegal behavior, why believe them now? They had best be gone after the November 2026 election, so we'll wait and see.
    • AltSendme 0.4.1

      By Copernic · Posted

      AltSendme 0.4.1 by Razvan Serea AltSendme is a minimal, cross-platform application designed for fast, secure, and private peer-to-peer file transfers. It allows users to send files or entire directories directly between devices without relying on cloud servers, accounts, or any personal information. Everything is encrypted end-to-end using modern protocols like QUIC and TLS 1.3, ensuring both strong security and low-latency performance. Transfers are verified with BLAKE3 for data integrity, and interrupted downloads automatically resume, making the experience reliable even on unstable connections. You can transfer anything—images, videos, documents, and more. Integrity checks are performed on both ends, so your files are automatically verified for correctness during both sending and receiving. AltSendme works seamlessly across local networks or long-distance links, capable of saturating multi-gigabit connections for extremely fast delivery. With built-in NAT traversal and encrypted relay fallback, it connects devices almost anywhere. The app integrates with the Sendme CLI and will soon support mobile and web platforms. Fully free and open-source, AltSendme offers a lightweight, privacy-first alternative to traditional cloud-based services, removing size limits, upload costs, and unnecessary data exposure. AltSendme 0.4.1 changelog: Release Highlights Self-hosted relays: Run your own iroh relay so transfers don't rely on public infrastructure. Includes a full deployment template in deploy/relay/ with Docker Compose for a VPS and configuration examples for production use. Fly.io support: One-click deploy template for Fly.io, including a quick-start config (fly.dev.toml) for testing without a custom domain, plus production setup with Let's Encrypt and your own hostname. Relay settings UI: New Settings → Network panel to choose how AltSendme connects: automatic public relays, custom self-hosted URLs (with optional auth token), or disabled. Test connections, verify latency, and see live relay status in the footer. Disable relays: Turn off relay servers entirely when you only need same-network transfers (e.g. LAN). Direct connections only. No relay hop required when devices can reach each other. Android graduates from beta: Android is now part of the regular release cycle alongside desktop. APKs ship with each version (universal, arm64, and armv7). Other improvements Private relay access control via shared auth token Relay fallback notifications when a custom relay is unreachable Broadcast mode toggle in sharing settings Android release build fixes (split-per-ABI APKs, universal APK preservation) UI polish: mobile safe-area insets, dropzone layout, transfer progress animation Bug fixes for minification-related serialization issues and system tray icon loading What's Changed feat(relay): add relay status functionality and settings UI (a120cdf) feat(relay): implement custom relay server configuration and verification (51276c7) feat(relay): add configuration for private relay access and enhance observability features (48fbabf) feat(relay): enhance relay URL validation, display connection status (d4fffa0) feat(relay): add RelayChangeGuard component and enhance relay-related translations (16ba514) feat(broadcast): add toggle setting for broadcast mode in sharing UI (ca6d977) fix(relay): correct QUIC discovery port, pin image, templatize fly.dev (52a2ba5) fix: More broken serialization due to minification (67491a9) fix(android): preserve true universal APK across per-ABI builds (e9f256f) fix(ui): conditional safe-area insets padding on mobile (1182f0e) refactor(transfer): CircularRing component animation fix (944572b) chore(android): drop x86 and x86_64 release APKs, keep universal+arm64+armv7 (34ada0b) Download: AltSendme 0.4.1 | ARM64 | ~9.0 MB (Open Source) Download: AltSendme for MacOS | Android Links: AltSendme Home Page | GitHub | Screenshot Get alerted to all of our Software updates on Twitter at @NeowinSoftware
    • Why Delta Chat is the best decentralized messenger you have probably never tried

      By zikalify · Posted

      You are mostly right about the ephemeral nature of it. As I mention in the article, if you dont add a second device or take a backup of your account before uninstalling it, then yes you will lose access to your account. That said, in terms of actual user experience when you sync multiple devices your message history carries across and there's also a Saved Messages chat like there is on Telegram to send messages and attachments between your installs. But yh, what you point out are correct and its not trying to emulate Messenger or Telegram.
    • You've tried DuckDuckGo and Brave Search, now get serious with SearXNG

      By zikalify · Posted

      OK so SearXNG is a meta search engine that you can install locally or use via a public instance. It scrapes other search engines which you choose and then sorts the results. Not as complicated as multiple relays
