Starcraft I-II/GSL General

Discussion in 'Gamer's Heartbeat' started by Jon_Snow, Apr 28, 2012.

  1. This thread is just for general discussion of Starcraft I/BW/II and the GSL's/pro-scene. Debate race balances(while staying mature about it), discuss favorite players, information on HotS, etc etc etc. Hopefully this works out.

    And, just so this thread isn't totally lacking content right from the get-go, here's some HotS stuff that I'm sure everyone's seen by now.
    Developer Update: Heart of the Swarm Multiplayer - StarCraft II
     
  2. Also, is anyone else super excited to see the outcome of this? Two of my personal favorite players, and they've been quite an entertaining match-up in the past ;)

    IdrA vs. HuK - Bo7
     

  3. thank the lawd haha

    and as for the second post, i would like to see HuK win, just to see some nice idra rage aha, but yeah both are up there in my favourite players, and i'll let you all try to figure out another one of my favourites :p

    also, i feel like i'm sort of not looking forward to HotS.. not quite sure why. maybe i just don't like change :p campaign will be fun for sure, but i don't think i can handle a bunch of new units and old units going away :(
     
  4. I feel so weird about HotS. It's like, I'm excited because I feel like I need to be, but in reality I'm scared as hell because it's just going to be more/newer units and hotkeys to remember and get used to using(I'm terrified of the Viper, I feel like that's going to be a bitch to get used to using, and I know the Swarm Host is going to make ZvZ suck even fucking more in the lower leagues, if these cunts don't 6 pool they'll just turtle like a douchey Terran).

    I'm so excited about HotS
    A bit off topic: I love weed, I love starcraft II, but those 2 just DO NOT MIX. My decision making is so fucking horrible, you know, the moment when you're making 3 overlords instead of making 3 drones and you laugh your ass off at your own stupidity. Weirdly, my APM is so high when I'm high hahah but I really suck. I play in Diamond, and my skill level is barely silver when I'm stoned :smoke:

    Also: As a Protoss player, I feel so weird about Carriers getting removed, they're such an iconic unit. Yes, they're not really viable because it's so hard to get that critical mass of 8-10 Carriers and even than you have a small window of opportunity because your opponent can switch to Vikings/Corruptors, but that's Blizzard's fault.

    How do you guys feel about Carrier/Mothership getting removed in HotS?
     
  6. in the HOUSE bitches

    i have known only an eternity of war

    your top 5 current fave players?

    1. Parting
    2. HuK
    3. MMA
    4. IdrA
    5. Curious
     
  7. Welcome, Viking. I've been expecting you. :p

    My top 5 players as of now:

    1. IdrA
    2. TLO
    3. HuK
    4. DongRaeGu
    5. Sheath
     
  8. Personally, I feel that HotS is going to be a nice stepping stone into further expansions of Star Craft. Last season I finished Platinum which was really good I thought, pretty pumped about that. Now I just play bronze trying to get more wins for more portraits. Hahaha

    I hate and love playing stoned. I hate it when I try to play on the ladder, but I love playing vs AI games when I'm stoned(usually just on medium difficulty lol).

    As for carriers, it's going to be weird not seeing them around, but I feel that the new air unit for 'toss will suffice as a substitute(but I don't play 'toss so I really can't say too much :confused_2:)
     
  10. The primary difference between North and South Korea:

  15. do little probies actually think i didn't see them walk right under my overlord at the ramp and then go hide in the corner?

    3 games in a row, canon rushed all 3 times lol, only one worked cuz i didn't react in time, the other two were sad, sad fails.

    So I hear that HuK vs IdrA bo7 was extremely disappointing and a total "waste of time", I guess IdrA just rage quit a ton or something and lost 0-4?


    On a lighter note, THIS SONG IS BEAUTIFUL
