    Looking for replays or videos of skilled Zerg players winning

    In this case, it would be stealing from a pay service (GomTV). A subscription is relatively cheap at $20. You can, however, watch the first game of every series for free at gomtv.net. The Blizzcon match between 과일존수 and SlayerS_`BoxeR` may be worth watching as well.

    new patch is here!!

    There's nothing wrong with cheesy all-in builds as long as they can be stopped. And it wasn't too hard to stop any cheese reaper builds, and when you did, you were FAAAARRRR ahead. High-risk, high-reward builds make the game more dynamic. Also, 10-rax was a fairly legitimate build that wasn't...

    Going in-active on SC2

    What loans? I have some undergrad loans but if you do it right, grad school should be free (and you get paid for it).

    It's called grad school.

    OMG BOXER IS HERE!!!

    Lim Yo Hwan qualified for GSL2 as did Choi In Kyu (ChRh - old school BW pro). Park Sung Jun (JulyZerg/FantaPrime) failed qualifiers, as did Moon (top WC3 pro)

    Big changes and big zerg buffs in next patch!

    Reaper/barracks changes are absurd. Reapers aren't that strong, and terran is disadvantaged if they go for early reaper and it doesn't do enough damage. They're now completely useless. The rest of the changes are probably good/okay.

    Jaedong vs FlaSh [11 September, 2010] @ Korean Air Season 2 Finals in ShangHai, China

    The big SC2 names are playing it, which is all I said. Although there are still a number of notable SC1 names aside from July, such as Tester and Rainbow. They're pretty old school, though, so wouldn't be surprised if a lot of people who are into BW now hadn't heard of them.

    Jaedong vs FlaSh [11 September, 2010] @ Korean Air Season 2 Finals in ShangHai, China

    They already have. GSL has been going already, with some pretty big names in SC2.

    epic terran vs protoss on metalopolis

    HD has demonstrated that he has no intention of improving either his playing or his casting. If he wanted to improve, he could put in a little effort into gathering background information or play more than 1 game a week so he can at least understand the game somewhat. Really, anyone can go to...

    epic terran vs protoss on metalopolis

    Day[9] is good, Tasteless, Artosis and Chill are decent. I'll take Husky over HD although Husky has some annoying things. HD is really terrible though. He has absolutely no understanding of the game so his commentary lacks any actual content, and when he tries to do any analysis, it's...

    epic terran vs protoss on metalopolis

    Ughh. I can't stand HD's casting. Had to turn it off after 30 seconds.

    Guaranteed you're not building enough probes.

    Become StarCraft II Staff (Updated)

    Not to mention BW is over 10 years old so more things have been "discovered" leading to more matured play. If you look back at competitive play in the first couple of years of BW, you'd think they were playing a completely different game. Stacked mutas didn't become widespread until like 2006...

    Become StarCraft II Staff (Updated)

    And there are plenty of other things that require more APM than in BW. Lots of people like bandwagon into saying it's a noobified game because of those features, but among the top level players there are just as many who say that it takes MORE APM to play SC2 "perfectly" than BW. It's a faster...

    Become StarCraft II Staff (Updated)

    This post makes no sense. How is SC2 catering more to War3 players than to BW players? Last I checked there are no heroes, leveling, or items, and it's an extremely fast game like SC/BW. The reason the pros aren't switching en masse yet is because until SC2 gets an established pro scene, they...

    @ Tek (or zerg players)

    Fixed. But seriously, FF wasn't nerfed in any meaningful way by patch 13 (no one makes ultras because they're useless, colossi and thor are never going to be in position to be able to break a FF). Maybe you should consider that when you're getting owned by FF (or anything else) that it's...

    Blizzard: I want to trust you, but you're making it difficult

    1) Considering that the beta was delayed from early summer 2009 until Feb 2010, I'm not worried at all that Blizzard is operating on Activision's timeline. They're taking as long as they need to, which is, at the core, the reason why Blizzard games have been historically good. That said, most of...

    Critique me :(

    If you really want to improve, I would stick with one race until your mechanics improve. I'd even suggest only practicing one matchup until you hit a certain level of comfort with it. This is hard if you're using the ladder matchmaker, but if you're practicing in custom games, leave as many...

    Proxy 2 gate replays
