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 ;).

    • Apple reportedly looks to blacklisted Chinese memory chips as RAM prices climb

      By Karthik Mudaliar · Posted

      Apple reportedly looks to blacklisted Chinese memory chips as RAM prices climb by Karthik Mudaliar Image via Apple Apple is reportedly trying to get a clearance from the Trump administration to buy memory from ChangXin Memory Technologies (CXMT) to get some relief from soaring DRAM prices. As per a report by the Financial Times, Apple approached the Commerce Department more than a month ago and also spoke to other officials and allies in Washington. For starters, CXMT is a company that's already been placed on the Pentagon's list of Chinese military companies. The Chinese company is the country's top DRAM maker. For Apple, the timing is certainly awkward but not surprising. Tim Cook had recently warned that Apple would have to raise prices because AI companies are buying up large amounts of memory for data centers, and just like that, Apple raised MacBook and iPad prices. Micron also recently revealed that customers have committed billions of dollars to secure memory supply years in advance, which shows us how aggressive securing infrastructure has become. This gives suppliers such as Samsung, SK Hynix, and Micron more leverage, while pushing hardware makers to look for alternatives. CXMT is one of those alternatives, but not the simplest one. Apple has spent many years trying to diversify parts of its supply chain away from China, especially for final assembly, while still depending heavily on Chinese manufacturing and suppliers. Even domestic brands from China are moving towards CXMT and YMTC instead of relying on Samsung, Micron, and SK Hynix. For Apple, though, it would invite more scrutiny than local Chinese companies. For now, this is more like a lobbying effort rather than a confirmed supply deal. There's no official statement from either of the parties. What is clearer, though, is the pressure behind such a request. AI demand has certainly made hardware a bottleneck, and companies are trying everything they can to bring things back to normal, even if that means making politically sensitive choices.

    • 4TB TEAMGROUP MP44Q, 2TB T-Force G50, and 2TB WD My Passport SSDs drop to great prices

      Neowin is saying these are good prices? Thats crazy. As others have said they are just ######. Time for big tech to bring down the prices for real not this fake crap.
    • Hands on with iFlyTek AINote 2 E-Ink tablet: insanely thin and smart

      By The Werewolf · Posted

      The iFlyTek AINote 2 is among the thinnest E-Ink tablets. It has an EMR stylus, a built-in fingerprint reader, and plenty of built-in AI features. You had me until "and plenty of built-in AI features." That and any company that still does the iProduct naming trope is an immediate pass. It suggests the company isn't very imaginative or creative and is trying to piggyback off another company's success. Extremely lame. Also kind of expensive. Better choices at lower prices out there.

      These are not "great" prices... just "less awful". Apparently "Those who forget the past are doomed to pay higher prices and think they've won."
