Just got my game last month n just completed the normal campaign n starting off the challenges, but still need more drill on the game especially the builds and the units blush.gif

BTW dislike zerg, would prefer terran n protoss, but seriously need some experienced players or pros to help (read a few posts and still don't even know what's micro n macro is all about!) cry.gif

Have watched a couple of replays and asking should memorize the procedures? tongue.gif

But still need some friends to play with in the custom game to point out my weaknesses and what to do as my only friend in game is less likely to play with me and ask me to train more... cry.gif

Anyone?? HELP needed...greatly appreciate...I forgot my ID code, will reply below when I reach home later... add me pls...or some tips for newbs... icon_question.gif



I found my character code, it's 292, from SEA biggrin.gif

Just play the ladder. It's no good finding a practice partner now since you are more inexperienced comparing to the other players in Bnet. Best is to play, save the replay and send it to us so we can help.

Welcome to the big stage. This is the best game ever tongue.gif

I personally think, if you want to just have fun, hit that ladder button, get roll then see where u stand and start learning from repairing mistakes

Or go activate your NA account; play custom orbit map 2v2. There is a lot newbie playin that there, brush up on built.

If you want to observe ppl playing, go NA, go custom game, join 1v1 obs Xel Naga map to see ppl play non stop. Mostly diamond above level on that map.

SEA, go nerdlings channel or Malaysia channel, ask ppl to let u observe their friendly match.

Have fun.

u protoss right?

follow this when you are laddering a game.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ntN5krvoxto

follow it as close as possible, play it repeatedly to master it. in about 30 games you will be in diamond (i guess lol) plat or diamond at least la if you can micro.

wait what????

u expect to go into the ladder and dont lose at all?

its normal to have a winrate of 50% which means u win 100 lose 100 games, less than 50% means u r under performing, anythibng over 50% is good.

even IMMVP or Nestea dont have 100% win rate -.- everyone will lose a game or 2. this is starcraft, not std 1 exam papers.



p/s protoss is the weakest race of all 3. highest win rate matchup is PvP 50% smile.gif

Play with AI can only get u familiar with the units. FYI insane AI play show me the money 1. They don't use strat like player does. So you will still get played by players even u played with AI lol. I used 8 practice leugue games and skip and regreted, shoulda just press the skip. Those protective practice rock don't let u play a 'normal' game

Oh really? blink.gif

Well, today's Friday. I can't wait to reach home, click the skip button and try to thrash a player now! tongue.gif

If not mistaken, practice league's results will still be recorded no matter what, just that you're not in the league yet though. unsure.gif

wait wait, i thought last patch blizzard already removed your LOSS record? you can no longer see ur loses in ladder point there.

now i know why blizzard does that, because there are alot ppls like you lol.

i personally would like to know how many losses i had to keep in tact with my progress last time.

for those who wants, download sc2gears to analyze ur game records.
