[Megathread] StarCraft 2

[Thallidomaniac]

Ladder is boring to me, every damn game is the same. When I played it, I tried to randomize games as much as possible: I played Random only, tried to use mostly weird builds digressing from the norm... But still, after a few hundred games, the repetitiveness becomes too much to handle. I haven't touched ladder for almost a year now and don't feel like going back.

Arcade maps, on the other hand...

So even the team formats (2v2, 3v3, and 4v4) are no fun either? Granted they can be massive clusterfucks where 3 guys in a 4v4 are hoping that their 1 teammate carries them.

Ah, good old 4 reapers wrecking your base.

Scarlett took a game. I can't quite believe it.

I mean, I want her to do well I want to see awesome games, but TY absolutely outclasses her. I'm shocked she got one. TY will give better games in the future so I want him to win but I want to see a fight. One she is not capable of giving.

But you go girl.

I'm confused and lost about where do i watch these games live

[MerinPally]

It started at 10am GMT today.

If you scroll down to the tables, it should give you time and date in your timezone.

Watch them here:

http://www.twitch.tv/directory/game/...%20the%20Swarm

I don't know about VOD's but that's where you'd watch them live.

[Charge me Doctor]

Thanks.
Well, i guess i just suck at Twitch. But isn't there dedicated channel for that sort of stuff? Also VODs popped up on esportstv youtube channel, so i guess i'm fine

Teamliquid usually has stream list on left side, if for some reason particular tourney isn't listed/has wrong channel Live Report thread is easy to find under tournaments tab on left side, link is almost always in OP.

I'm back, graduating in 6 months guys so happy

But how much is a qualification in Dick Related Studies actually worth?

[Charge me Doctor]

I thought it was Phallic Shaped Objects Research or something like this (i believe that this is Korean so i think its SC2 related, and i'm not racist, i am ignorant)

Those are Japanese characters, totally appropriate because he's in Japan and speaks Japanese. He may even be in the video or have produced it. Or maybe you found it in his porn collection.

Chinese looks like really complex buildings attacking each other, Japanese has those complex buildings plus some smooth lines going at angles, and then Korean is in little blocks and contains circles.

これは日本人です (This is Japanese)

这是中国 (This is Chinese)

*것은 한국* (This is Korean)

According to google translate, so it may not be exact. I know some of the Spanish comes up funny when I'm reminding myself.

Edit: Something something penis penis something

ITT anything but sc2

I have a little chart explaining Hindu, Arabic, Chinese, Japanese and stuff but i can't be bothered with checking it. Found somewhat similar on web tho. As well as something more fun for Russians, CODEPAGES! (we had major problems with them back in 199xs, for example, games not recognizing Cyrillic symbols, ugh). Seriously, i wish i had this chart for codepages back then, it would make my internet experience much better.

Identifying languages has always been something I was luckily quite good at. Shame that learning them is... well I used to think I was bad at it but it turns out otherwise. So I've got that going for me.

Starleague on Christmas Day? Sounds amazing, shame I'll miss it because family coming over. That'd be awesome.

[kel]

[Darksoldierr]

Who needs a family when you can watch Sc2 on twitch on christmas night.

[Charge me Doctor]

Ok guys, i've managed to get my wife into SC2 via "i'm gonna beat you all in SC2 even if you all team up against me" trick in Skype when we've played LoL team ranked games, wonder how it will turn out.
