Starcraft

[JoeBlo]

yeah (when I finally get my game :P) but as for rushes Zerg and Protoss both have Melee units for basic so it renders then ineffective with some marines that can magically shot through buildings :P

So it's even easier to pull a block on SC2 than SC1?

The block for SC1 was usually supplies plus barrack, because they are the first 2 buildings available.  The barrack will be the gate while supply forms the rest of the wall.  There will also be "near complete" supply which makes good walls, because they can be canceled for minerals when they are about to die.

If Naryar is talking zealot rushing on SC1 I should be able to beat him with this.

Everything Terran (including the wall-in) is faceroll in SC2 at the moment, they are going to balance some things out in the patch coming soon which is also going to nerf zealot and reaper rushes  .

yes very easy to do so.. someone did it to my rush :P I would have gotten through in time except for the bloody rocks >

[ianh05]

When we start our 2v2 team Joe we should go Terran and Zerg with the Terran player getting medivacs because they heal biological units (all Zerg units are Biological if I'm not mistaken  ), I just won a 2v2 random game using that strategy I also had vikings and tanks .

[JoeBlo]

cool... I just have to wait for my computer but I have the game now 


also did you want a guest pass ? like to give you your friend or something ? I have 2 now and I owe you one for letting me use one of yours.

[ianh05]

I can't think of anyone who would want one, I play with my bro and 2 others and no one else I know would want to play so maybe a friend of yours can use it.

[Doomkiller]

I could use a guess pass :D

This game looks pretty cool though, might have to look into getting it

[JoeBlo]

ok well I will wait until I install so I can play with you :D


so long as downloading the game isnt a problem for you (like 6gig or something)

[ianh05]

as long as you live in the same region as us (Australia - South East Asia) then you can play with us  . Also I got my firebat portrait just then, Terran is OP!  I still like Zerg more though.

Doom is a fellow aussie.. 

[Doomkiller]

with 8mb/s and 200 gb download limit. It's not a problem with me :D

[JoeBlo]

ok cool.. but yeah umm Wednesday ? because I will have my computer back by then   


you will also need to make a Battle.net account at the time too

[Doomkiller]

uhhh, work experience all this week, then a camp on the weekend...

I'll get back to you on that.

[JoeBlo]

well anytime beyond wednesday is fine

[JoeBlo]

I love the interactive campaign area's like the ship and bar (name is very close the JoeYar :P)

I just finished the escort mission you talked about Ian.. hooray for Marine spam

[Naryar]

Marine spam is good cause you can attack air units and not bother about vespene gas.

Firebats rock for that mission and lots of medics.

YES!!! argh, I made an army of 100 marines in an online match (early in the game) and in that same time frame all they did was path block with some supply depots and put 3 tanks in siege mode. and killed the lot while I got rid of something like 2 tanks

[Naryar]

*EARLY* marine rush... when you have like 4-6.
