| Posted: 04 Nov 2020 08:03 PM PST Most people who have played it will say that SC2 is a very good game. I am one. It is a good game. Playing the 'ladder', moreover, can foster a sense of healthy competition and even make you 'addicted' to the game in a relatively good way. However, I recently got to a point where I felt I had little choice but to delete the game. It wasn't a tough decision; it was an easy one. I don't plan on playing it again. Before I did this, I watched a bunch of videos (Vibe's B to GM series was the series I watched the most) and tried to get better. I did get better after a while. I made it to almost Gold, which I know a lot of players will think is a joke, but it meant something to me at the time. I won a lot, I lost a lot, I won a lot, I lost a lot, and so on. Eventually, however, the joy of the victories became less overpowering than the disappointments over the losses. I would get angry, upset, because in everything else in life, it seemed to me, the more you work at it the better you will get at it. This is surely true of SC2, but it didn't feel true to me, in my limited perspective, at the time. Something felt off. I got sick of competing and competing and competing over time. I got sick of the losses (which were, granted, counterbalanced by wins). The whole affair became less of an excitement and more of a slog. I would be put in a bad mood after losing, and even the good mood I enjoyed after winning became increasingly more of a neutral mood, or a mood that made me feel anxious lest I lose the spot I just gained (which happens ALL THE TIME). There is also the very important fact that there are no real rewards - or at least, rewards that last - in this game, for most people. As soon as you go up a tier, you play opponents harder than you played before. So you have no time to appreciate what you've accomplished. It's as if you get pushed right back to the beginning every time you take a step forward. Not to mention all the learning you have to do, and practice, and upkeep, and diligent attention to tutorials, and new playings styles and so on. I know this is how life works. You have to keep doing something to get better at it. So I'm not saying there's anything wrong with SC2 or the people who play it (obviously). It's just that, in my own case, I started to have difficulty drawing the line between 'fun' and 'labour', and I don't recall ever playing a game when this phenomenon happened quite to the extent it did in SC2. So I suppose I'm wondering if anyone else feels or felt the same way - whether it led to you to delete the game, like me, or to take a long, long break. Thanks! See you.

| Starsense is back from Hibernation: Predict the outcome of Starcraft tournaments Posted: 04 Nov 2020 08:40 PM PST Hello guys, lets say the important part first: Starsense is back after ~4 years of Hibernation and you can get it here for Android! The older subscribers to this subreddit may remember me maybe. Back then I made a free Android app with Toby for predicting the outcome of Starcraft tournaments. I already reconnected with some of you on Twitter and it feels good to be back :) Lately I got a lot of extra time on my hands because of the Coronavirus and so I decided to bring the app back not only for me but to also keep some of you busy. It took me like two days to get all back running and currently you can predict:
I'm currently looking to add new tournaments but haven't decided on any yet. Feel free to propose tournaments you would like to see. If you haven't heard about this project yet you probably wonder what you can do with the app. Here is a quick list:
Finally let me say that I had to upgrade many of the parts to conform to todays API levels and standards so there may be bugs I'm not aware yet especially on new devices. Also I'm sorry but there is no IOs version, we tried hard to get it work last time but it didn't work out since I couldn't do it myself because of missing hardware (Apple products are expensive :O). If I made you curious, here are some links you might want to check out: [link] [comments] | ||||||||||||
| HAARPER made a Starcraft song?? Posted: 04 Nov 2020 09:53 PM PST Probably not everyone's taste, but this rapper Haarper made a bunch of Starcraft references in his newest song "Archon." I've listened to a lot of his music and have never noticed any have a gaming theme, so it really caught me by surprise lol the 3rd verse has the most references. Hope a few of you enjoy! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f3mLfJgnVTQ&ab_channel=HAARPER Lyrics as posted by the artist: Freeze like ice, see the scythe Watch it reflect right past your life Tickin down the time until I commit to the crime Im comin with the fuckin shine like hiten mitsurugi right up above the alley When you with your bitch named sally Make her turn sides for the d on an addy Crush em like adderall Stomp on their grave 'till I wake em What you gon do? Bones gon rot to stew If I ever fall I bounce back majin Motherfuckers shit, they soft like charmin Summon hurricanes, like a god or shaman You a damn pest like a fly on my ramen Fissure yo face like adios cya Temple gon break on yo break in Korea Ima make it clear, chandelier on ya soul No face like sia when they see the whole crow Target identified, target acquired The Stargate gon open, my army dont tire Komodos in armor, the blade be of Aiur Burn em to char in their car with my fryer They cannot sleep while I stalk in the Creep Aint no proto with the pick, I pick em petty in the street They aint ready for the swipe, Zeratul in flight Fearing the emission of the green at night Emerald archon, im the emerald Ill break yo dental Im too far gone, at the central I pay no rental In yo mind I, I Push the pedal I never settle, pour the kettle The heavy metal Im in yo mental [link] [comments] | ||||||||||||

| No more major changes, except were going to nerf spray Posted: 04 Nov 2020 12:17 PM PST Can anyone find the patch note about this? I have not seen it. Spray is back to 1 charge, and the keybind is unbound. We've lost the mothership core, infested terrans, old fungal, point defense drone, seeker missle, wormhole, pylon overcharge and countless other things, god damn it GIVE US THE SPRAY -_- [link] [comments] | ||||||||||||
| Posted: 04 Nov 2020 07:16 AM PST I was watching the ESL rerun of DH Masters (MaNa vs. ShaDoWn - DH Masters: Winter 2020 - Group A - EU). The game was going back and forth and Mana was gaining an edge. Suddenly three ads started playing. I was confused for a bit (because I have my chat closed most of the times, I didn't see the small window on the side) went to chat to ask a question, realized it was follower only. Followed the account, but couldn't talk for 10 minutes. Ads finish and I see an ESL screen which says commercial in progress (after 3 1-minute ads have already completed). This screen stays on for a bit. I thought the game is over and the ads played at an inopportune time, but this screen went away and were dropped back into the game and it is still going on. This makes for a very poor viewer experience. I fully understand the need for the ads and I am happy to see it - as long it doesn't start bang in the middle of an interesting moment. Wait for the game to end and run it between games. /rant [link] [comments] | ||||||||||||
