Thats patch 10 that u r downloading.

exactly, hence you "not lagging" is really far fetched when it comes to higher level micro management. as a matter of fact for me, ive tend to adopt a play style that doesnt rely on micromanagement as much (thank god it aint war3 lol) like avoiding units such as templars/infestors (f*** the hive upgrade, stupid pre-req lol)/ravens and so forth. and to an extent, avoid using melees and favor ranged such as stalkers/roaches

dont get me wrong though, i am by no means saying such play styles is good and in fact it isnt as i am not utilizing everything a race can offer. just that im better off playing something less frustrating, and in a way, more effective to cope with the lag. in a slight off topic WoW speak: mutilate over shadowdance spec thanks to latency

=edit=
lol noticed im missing 2 words in the sentence

Anyone know what is the most efficient way to kite and shoot? I use right-click move and hit S when my weapon cooldown is up. Problem is sometimes I won't get a shot off before I have to move again. I dunno if it's latency or my method is not very effective. Like when i'm kiting workers with my reaper, when i gain some distance I hit S, the reaper will turn, it'll get a shot off sometimes but sometimes not, if i wait a lil longer for the shot i'll get hit. So am i doing it wrong and there's a faster way to get your guy to shoot? I thought it might be because S(Stop) might hold your fire for a sec but i tested it on some buildings and spamming S never affected your shooting only movement.

well HTs are just too good to avoid >.<
especially against all those balls-army that 1-2 pew pew they die...

as for infestors, the MC on thors = LOLBBQPWN...

i could say my uni line is pretty good in terms of latency...
from a pally healer in WoW where i connect without tunneling, i think its connection to US = win...
my kiting: -
1. move (right click) to the back of ur army
2. attack move (A + left click) to the same direction where ur army is moving
that way, ur army will move back -> auto turn around and shoot the ones they are kiting...
pretty simple i guess but u gotta see which direction u are kiting and ur army organization/ positioning...

like i said, if ur uni is in msia, no matter how awesome superbly good the line is, it will still be on a bare minimum ~200 latency due to distance

hell, i dont even use vpn/tunnel on my WoW and the latency's 300-400. thats good, however just not enough for some higher level micros in sc2 (or war3, for that matter)

Added on May 19, 2010, 2:51 pmas for kiting, i use move > s

move > atk + a = 1 more keypress of a + click = unneeded 'lag'

kiting is nt really high level to me >.<
after all its controlling a group and nt individual unit...

i use attack move so that the units would still give a little chase if my opponent withdraw his/her units...
after all stalkers have faster speed and is able to chase+shoot without stopping...

For Info Sharing,

For SG, There Are No Info On CE

AnyHow, For Normal Edition, Price Tag SGD109

spamming psi storm, gravitron beams, individual blinks etc. just examples

also units are auto aggressive, if you stop, things run, they will chase so long they have initial proximity. example: put an idle zealot, and have a hostile worker run by it wwwwww

stalkers are not able to atk while moving, btw. they need to stop for a brief moment, then they will fire. you may experiment this by spamming move on ur stalker non stop. phoenixes on the other hand are buffed to be able to do just that.

and they say SMM is expensive. guess someone beat them in being evil

Hey guys, can recommend any vpn to use with sc2 ?

high delay at battle.net

Hey guys, can recommend any vpn to use with sc2 ?

high delay at battle.net

i think those are pretty easy even with 200ms delay...
u can get used to the 200ms delay pretty easily (though i dun really feel any delays)

my bad i confused hold position with stop >.<

and ya, u r correct bout the stalkers (else they can shoot while walking back)

well, ive been playing war3 a lot back then and achieved pretty high rankings too with like 60+% winrate of over 700-800 games IINM
and no matter what you'll be at a disadvantage like it or not. the whole psi storm over a MMM/zerg army knowing that you got ur ass handed due to that mere 200 ms latency, is just lol.

my profile is still up btw, on US East bnet with the same name. win % dropped a ton cuz ive been playing now and then in between WoW/other games and with me totally out of shape for war3, the result isnt pleasant at all

i thot ur "cause i can™" connection should be good rite 

i think the biggest issue would be accurate FF positioning (leaked a few times in my case lol)

My noob 1v1 replay .... watch it and LOLz

you purposely ignore the group of viking park behind your base ah?
