um.....guys?

If you're playing PC games at high resolutions with low textures, you are very clearly doing it wrong. If your video card can't support it, it doesn't really matter what your monitor's "optimum resolution" is.

[UltimaAvalon]

but PEG, all you do is build shit that does absolutely nothing, and then they all go away 14-30 minutes later. And then they want you to do it again. How can you find such a thing fun?

JD and I are making fun of your zerg pushes that look like toss pushes and minute long vomit times

I play toss, what do you expect....?

thats the joke

[UltimaAvalon]

oh my god I won one of my placement matches weeeeeeee

[UltimaAvalon]

I think either Pool Play or a Ladder would be fine

[UltimaAvalon]

Oh hey, new league for me to never reach

[UltimaAvalon]

No we're not

[UltimaAvalon]

Look at your avatar bro.

See that spike coming out of the middle of your forehead?

Don't lie to me. You're a Unicorn at heart.

Peace and love <3

you realize this post will be rather silly when this whole pokemon thing blows over and I go back to ROFL MAO right?

Anyone from MS going to be at MLG Dallas? Driving up Saturday/Sunday to catch up with some people and watch some SC2.

I've been informed that my objective is now to get an MafiaScum sign on stream.

Well, seeing as I live in Dallas, I might go if I don't have to pay to get in

[UltimaAvalon]

BTW - expect much JD + PEG 2v2age tomorrow.

I feel left out, but then I remember I hate this game so much...

what happened to us doing Funday Monday?

[UltimaAvalon]

I'd say we should have a WORST OF THE WORST tournament but we never even finished the actual one >.>

wouldn't this be unreliable since throwing the match would result in "winning"

[UltimaAvalon]

But it's par for the course for Post-WoW Blizzard. World of Warcraft has been doing the same thing for the last 7 years.

[UltimaAvalon]

I wouldn't say it's bad for the industry. Blizzard is really the only developer who could do something like this and get away with it.

[UltimaAvalon]

yearly sport franchises

Has been happening since before WoW, only those who are REALLY INTO IT will buy it every year

new Guitar Hero/Rock Bands

Around the same time as WoW, only those who are REALLY INTO IT will buy it each time

there won't have been 3 different iterations of Street Fighter 4 by the time AE comes out

And guess who's going to buy each iteration.

Assassin's Creed

Really? Ubisoft did a great job of making sure neither the single player nor multiplayer felt tacked on to Brotherhood, and Revelations is looking to be even better.

[UltimaAvalon]

I'm not in a league either. I'm not sure I would qualify for bronze.

Protip: Bronze simply means "Everyone who couldn't place Silver or better"

[UltimaAvalon]

Your joke sucked

[UltimaAvalon]

I have played age of empires before, will that help the learning curve be shorter?

Not really

Watch This guy's videos, specifically his Newbie Tuesday videos, but even ones that dont say Newbie Tuesday have bits and ends that will help you grasp the game

[UltimaAvalon]

Yes, but this is the "Bad At Starcraft League"

[UltimaAvalon]

Its not being removed, just taken out of the ladder pool

[UltimaAvalon]

and probably wont until Heart of the Swarm comes out, and that'll last for around 6 months before back to pro scene only

[UltimaAvalon]

That doesnt really answer the question. why do you have two accounts? Why not just play Protoss and Zerg on the one account?

[UltimaAvalon]

You're really bad at this

[UltimaAvalon]

If I had known it was $20 with preorder, I woulda done that
