Of course it's always impossible to play flawlessly. What i mean is that the gap between the good players and the noob may have narrowed with the accessibility of macro. Of course i can be wrong, and would be glad to be so, but i just feel like the way it's played right now will just become an another game where the one who micro better will win.

Edit : that's purely from a Z point of view. Not T or P as i've not played them yet or so few but i guess for T it'd be a little harder since i didn't manage to get the 2 barracks with 2 differents addon to make marines at the same time.

so youre saying peopled figure out how to micro mutas during sc1 beta?

Take WC3 for example during first month... Humans went all Sorcerers with Archmage, Night Elf went all Hunters with Demon Hunter until all that shit got nerfed / fixed, I forgot what the cheese was in early years of SC as I was only like 10 years old when it came out but I'm sure there was cheese galore. problem is wc3 never was balanced

Problem with balancing wc3 was the number of options available. Four races bring WAY More combinations and makes it impossible to balance, while Starcraft has 3 races to play, which should make it way easier to balance.

Is anyone experiencing problems w/ connecting to battle.net ? I can't log in tt

Anyone know how accounts work for the beta with regard to regions?

Are there two seperate client downloads, one US and one Euro, that decide whether you connect to one set of servers or the other? If I get a hold of an account owned by someone in the US that previously used the beta on a US client will I have to download/login to the US client or could I download the ENGB client and login to that with the same (US based) account?

Edit: And as an aside, if I had to play on a US client/server, are there latency problems when playing from Europe?

Are any of you guys having trouble caring because there is 0 money involved. Sigh... I've gotten old

Dang, I sold my key and the money was transferred via PS, tried to check cash and they told me I couldn't use their site as a money transfer site lol. What can I do? I don't have time to play poker, SC2!@!!!!!!

Funny game between one of my newb housemates (playing on Positron) and another friend of ours (playing on Krishanu). Rules were Krishanu could only his his left hand for mouse, and no keyboard. Turned out to be an epic struggle.

sick list of the top 200 us players right now. Definately shows how some of the leagues are skewed. O well nice job Crownroyal!!

2) Smuft 1847 162-34

14) Inebriated 1530 175-62

31) KhanYeWest 1443 98-63

Rainkhan sneaking up there!! How are you playing live tourneys and playing sc2?

No one knew that Smuft was playing again haha

Jesus, Paypal is taking forever to fucking set up especially with 2-3 day waits and a bunch of confirmation bullshit. If I give someone here $250 through FTP can someone just buy me a SC2 beta CD key on Ebay and forward it to me?

if you give me $50 for helping you i'll do it
