Patch Day

Blizzard released the StarCraft 2 1.1.0 patch today. I wanted to give my opinion on some of the changes that were made. Some of these changes made sense, some of them make me scratch my head.

StarCraft 2: Fundamentals of Macro

Receivers get all the glory.

In football the wide receiver and the quarterback get most of the attention because they’re the ones making big plays and scoring points. What people often forget is that the offensive line are the guys making those big plays possible by protecting the quarterback. No, this isn’t a football article or even a sports website, but StarCraft 2 is similar to professional sports. People often focus on the fancy stuff like micro and ignore the less glorious, but fundamental aspects like macro. Macro is arguably the most important part of playing StarCraft 2 as making units More >

StarCraft 2: Confessions of an APM Spammer

Chuck Norris doesn't have Twitter, because he's already following you.

There are several misconceptions about Actions Per Minute (APM) and spamming. Many players are under the impression that skill in Starcraft II is based on how fast you can move your hands. If this were StarCraft: Broodwar and they were attempting to compete with the likes of Nada or Jaedong, that would be partially true. However, those guys play at such a high level that they actually to move their hands at Chuck Norris-like speeds. With many of the changes made from StarCraft: Broodwar to StarCraft 2, the need for 350-400 More >

StarCraft 2: Trying to be Too Cute <3

Have you ever felt like you were getting just the right unit mix then suddenly you were overrun or had your attack just get absolutely crushed? Have you been harassing your opponent only to end up getting counter attacked and losing? Or what about those times when your reapers killed a few workers but you ended up with 900 minerals built up? If any of those things have happened to you you’re probably falling in to one of two traps. Both of these problems have the same symptom, underproduction or what I like to call “not enough stuff.”
