StarCraft II Beta
|
Since the StarCraft II Beta is out, I thought we might be able to get a few games going or even a practice group formed for those who have beta keys. |

Closed-Beta Client, you need a BattleNet account though. |

Doubt it, Starcraft is officially considered as a sport by the Koreans. |

I know right, I'm currently following 1 of a channel on youtube. And some trivia. If anyone played starcraft here, how fast you could win the game, 1v1? |

HDstarcraft has some cool videos of game replays. I watched a few and got some good strategies. |

I'm currently watching few matches from Jon747. They got few good matches from 2 major korean starcraft games, the MSL & OSL. A must watch for starcraft players. |

There was one time that the title was almost snatched from the Koreans. Can't recall if it was Germany or Russia. Kneel Before the Great and Benevolent Cow! |

Re: StarCraft II Beta

got the code by pre-ordering the game. Personally i think starcraft 1 was better... On the other hand, SC2 has an amazing custom map maker. wouldnt be surprised if over half the ppl who eventually buys this game plans to play Dota(with the improved map maker and graphics) on it instead of actually playing the game. Right now zerg totally pwns protoss in SC2 cuz in SC2 protoss doesnt get anti air fast enough while zerg gets mutilisk hella fast = =. No particular set build has been found yet really... so overall it's kinda unbalanced. I really hate how they simplified the game and how the hotkeys are so different now so that you basically have to...relearn the game = =lll |

Creating dota with starcraft 2 isn't impossible, but with the better graphics means a better pc needed. it's a hard deal if your pc could only deal with warcraft 3's graphics. In short, dota in starcraft, i would say it might not famous as it's in warcraft. |

@PHS: A starcraft (not SC2) match could be won within 5 minutes. Usually by a 2 gate rush for protoss, an MnM for Terran, and the classic Zerg rush for Zerg. Zerg Vs. Zerg matches are usually shorter than Zerg v other race. I look at Huskystarcraft for some neat updates on SCII. |

DotA was based upon a Starcraft map after all. But what I am more interested is the freedom you get with the map editor. As seen here. Yeah. Starcraft Ghost. Are you making fun of us Blizzard? Kneel Before the Great and Benevolent Cow! |

i checked on the beta before, still.. i found some unbalance in the game.. for sure the zerg can harras any opponent in the early game, the got much zergling to load off, and if u upgrade the zergling (plus 20% attack speed), it will not give opponent any chance to breath with their massive amount and speed (of course, plus power too) |

Just go defensive. At least with terran i know that going defensive asap stops the zerg rush from killing you. a couple bunkers near your base not at the entrance to it, and they cant run in and kill your workers. Easy :) Ive yet to get killed by a swam of lings on that game.

ive seen people using the triple M rush any way to counter em? marine marauder and medivac. i need at least 20 mins trying to tier into having a colossi. theyre the only one who can win against a ling rush. |
