Oh, and I found it funny how oGsMC stated in an interview that one of his goals is to knock TheWind (his own coach) out of GSL so he can go back to coaching full time. Extra points for that.

The difference though is the BoxeR didn't drop to Code A because he sucked, his match against Zenio pretty much shows he's still a mid-tier Code S player. Same with MVP, except that MVP is clearly a tier above BoxeR.

There's always an element of luck involved in these kinds of 4-player grouping matches. I mean, HuK wouldn't had made it to Code S if he had gotten into any of the harder groups in the ups-and-downs.

Is it just me or is SC2 crashing often for other people? I recently bought another account so I could ladder Terran on it exclusively (my main one will be Protoss) but when doing my placement matches I crashed in 2 of my games and I got placed in silver league because of this bullshit. Would have easily won all 5...

You paid extra money to do that?

Cuz blizz is stupid and won't let us have extra accounts. They don't understand that they lock people into the races they play because they don't want ot ruin their main account.

Archon_Wing · 2011-03-25, 00:27

There should be separate stats per race... Oh wait, they don't even want regular stats.

NervZero · 2011-03-25, 00:32

I have said this since day one.. Blizz's ladder system is stupid because soon the bots will be on giving auto wins... pointless.... I'm happy the installed chatrooms made it more like an online game..
Granted i haven't played in a month....

They're trying to save server space and reduce data traffic! Yea, that's the reason. LOLOL

And so, having played Toss way way too much... I'm stuck as Toss despite (if ever) playing more games as Terran?

I seem to be partial to the Battlecrusier build (not quite a rush or all in though, I'm too conservative a player for that).

~~Pocari_Sweat~~ · 2011-03-25, 01:37

Ok.. Out of the 15 ladder games I played, about half of them ended up crashing ingame. The crashes ended up as losses. I'm pissed.

Ithekro · 2011-03-25, 03:55

I'm figuring out I like playing Star Battle over Starcraft.

Ouch! That sucks. On the bright side, they don't show losses anymore.

It's ok. This once happened to me before. I think you need to post on their technical support forum.

They will of course blame the problem on you, but if enough complain...

brocko · 2011-03-26, 01:03

Does it freeze into a blackscreen when it crashes? It happened to me then i chucked the graphics way down and it hasn't occured since. Try it with lower settings, it may possibly help.

lordshadowisle · 2011-03-26, 02:45

Sigh, I'm even worse than I thought

Must have lost about 6 or 7 games in a row. Too bad there's no achievement for failure

It crashes to the desktop and it gives a error message. I'm fairly sure this is a patch issue because sc2 was fine before it.

brocko · 2011-03-26, 05:39

In that case it sounds like Blizzard dun goofed. Have you tried testing it out offline? Might be a battlenet issue rather than the game itself.

This is probably one of the most interesting games I have played. Halfway through someone DC-ed so we simply massed and tried to rush. Then someone teched up to BCs while I am still stuck with churning out marines.

Before the patch that was bad enough, now if I get into a TvT and have 4 bases, get battlecruisers (if I have air dominance) and just laugh at everything as I zoom around the map. I love the speed change on BCs! <3

Replay on that 3v3 Typhon map. That damned cursed map. Much h8.

Instead of the all-in back door approach, when the push wasn't moving forward; back off and try the other way. Granted, I was a coward during one push; but thankfully, that cowardice paid off. Then, with Nyan's blings and teal's immortals, their push was held off while their mains were being taken out.

Luckily, yellow was not effective.

Banelings are addictive. Roll them out from the hatch like little green balls and send them to their deaths.

Orange was an idiot. He was kiting my blings with such a large army and got himself clogged up at the chokepoint of our base while retreating.

This has got to be the silliest cheese I have fought off.
