    The State of PvP

    Posted: 22 Jan 2020 02:38 AM PST

    Hello /r/starcraft friends,

    We all love a good game of starcraft and we all love a good game of rock paper scissors. When you mix these two you get something awful : the current PvP. Constant proxy robo's, proxy oracles, proxy gates and fake proxy pylons make the early game of this matchup almost impossible to be "safe" in.

    This wouldn't be an issue if the midgame allowed for comebacks, but because our current midgame exists of amoving into each other and having 1 extra zealot might determine the outcome of the game I am afraid that comebacks are rather rare. Even against players a lot worse than you it is very difficult to comeback in a game where you are behind from the earlygame.

    This translates into a matchup where luck and good build order choices (basically luck) decide the faith of a big amount of games. To illustrate that point I wanna pull up aligulac ratings of matchups

    Currently the best PvP player is Zest with a rating of 2729

    Currently the best ZvZ player is Serral with a rating of 3262

    Currently the best TvT player is Cure with a rating of 3029

    The matchup with the second lowest rating is PvZ, Neeb has a rating of 2846 (still +100 points above PvP)

    No matter how good you are at PvP you will need to make big gambles in the earlygame and this WILL result in big losses versus players much worse than you.

    Now here comes the sad part. I actually am not sure what the solution is. I can't think of a way to make the early game PvP less proxy based and more stable, I don't know how to allow for more comeback potential either .

    I just wish we could have a matchup where you don't have to gamble as much in the early game.

    Any ideas are welcome

    WOL Pro Game Request

    Posted: 23 Jan 2020 01:52 AM PST

    Weird request, I vaguely remember a pro game back in the late WOL era where mass ghosts were first used vs zerg in the late game, which then resulted in the snipe nerf. I think the match was on Metropolis Metalopolis.

    Looking for Katowice 2020 Warchest Information

    Posted: 22 Jan 2020 10:32 PM PST

    As the title suggests, does anyone know anything about when the Katowice 2020 warchest will be released? I know for sure that they have confirmed that warchests will be continued for future tournaments, however usually the warchests come out like a month or two in advance of the main event but we have yet to see any announcements regarding the same and we are just a month away from Katowice 2020. So if anyone has any information regarding this do kindly share.

    Starcraft Ghosts ( 1st person survival horror/shooter)

    Posted: 23 Jan 2020 01:01 AM PST

    Hey whats up guys,

    I know with all of the stacraft side projects getting cancelled its very unlikely we'll ever get anything similar to what little we saw with starcraft ghosts but what if we put a petition together or something.... What do you guys think about a version of that cancelled shooter but with old Halo 1 (Flood Levels), Halo ODST, Dead Space, and Star Wars Republic Commando vibes? I could definitely see, if executed right, a game that follows Nova squadron as they investigate a zerg attack on a terran outpost and have the squad slowly get killed off or something like that with some RPG elements. Whatever it is, someone needs to crowd fund the hell out of this since all indication points to blizzard not putting any resources into anything star craft related.

    Why UED Captain didn't suspect Duran?

    Posted: 23 Jan 2020 12:55 AM PST

    Captain witnessed substantial number of Zerg coming from Duran's position, but he never questioned how Duran managed to survive from the Zerg attack nor informed Dugalle how Duran's "slip up" made them lose Mengsk.

    Is this a plot hole?
