This is my first time on reddit as I couldn't find the answer anywhere else. I started to play starcraft 2 and even after watching as many guides and build orders as I could I still can't win a single game. I have no idea what I'm doing wrong. I play protoss, and any suggestions on what I could do would be so appreciated.

I've been here from the very beginning, i come and go every few months. Watching IMMvp in the Gamers8 tournament was a real treat, but my all time favorite since the beginning was SeleCT. Anyone know about how hes doing? Whats up with him? (Yes I play Terran :P)

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

So I just recently started playing again and I didn't realise how broken the divisions are. I got placed in Masters 3 and ran around the room, thinking me watching tournaments had somehow made me really good. I soon realised this was not the case.

I then played against a bronze player, who accused me of smurfing, because I was clearly a masters player. We were both the same mmr (around 2500), only he was placed in bronze and has been there for months..!

This is problematic for 2 reasons:

  1. Low level players might not know about the bugs in the division system. I only know about it because I watch streamers. Imagine thinking you are in bronze and the only match you play that day is against a masters player. If you don't check the replay, you're never gonna realise the other guy was around the same skill level as you and you should both be in gold league. You would immediately quit playing such a stupid game, right?
  2. For us metal leaguers the divisions are real important mentally. I know mmr is the same, but "I wanna reach 2700 mmr" just doesn't feel the same as "I wanna finally get to platinum".

I feel for low level players this is a way bigger priority than balance changes, as slight cyclone nerf doesn't do anything for me (everyone plays one base battlecruisers anyway lol), it should be about preserving the sense of achievement! Otherwise a lot of players are gonna quit and probably already have...

Are there any chances this is gonna get fixed any time soon?

I posted before about not being able to get tickets for the actual GSL venue. It seems unlikely that we are getting in. However it seems that Retro game bar is an option for viewing, is anyone interested in joining? I bet its way cooler than the actual venue... like x10 cooler.

With him skipping the EU finals, are there alternative ways of qualifying for Dallas? Is he maybe already qualified for it through prior tournament wins or circuit points or something?

I recently started playing Starcraft 2 a week ago. I have been having a lot of fun making my way up the ranks and learning how to play! My one question is when I try to follow build order, I find myself wanting to make changes and create my own build order that fits my play style. For reference, I play Terran, and my MMR is 1500. Some of my changes include: the number of marines I build in my first barracks, when to create my first gas, scouting earlier, upgrading my command center to orbital command earlier/later. Is it ok to do these things? Can I make my own build order?

(sorry if I don't know the correct wording for certain starcraft 2 things.)

Feels like this might be the best 2v2 pool we've ever had. Love the oldies like Emerald City, Rhoskallian , Reclamation, and especially Nightscape with the boulders removed. And the new Catalesque is an instant classic. Good shit boys!

And I see there are quite a few posts from people doing the same. Is that typical or have I tapped into some sort of herd mentality that's been recently triggered by something in the SC2 world?
