Oddly enough, I played one on SC and I ACTUALLY beat him. I have no clue how, well, back to spamming mah Marines and Goliaths.

This becomes more hilarious since I've seen a Korean competition where the winnner used eight SCVs and three Marines (This was SC1).

Less about enjoyment and more about Bug finding, and alowing the higher rankers to figure out how certain aspects are more op then others and how to balence them. retail will bring custom games and a better matchmaking system, and they glorious thing called campain.

I was once paired with someone on my skill level, and then in a double battle my team mate was a platinum leagur who roflstomped both of our opponents while i struggled to fend off an attack. I can see where alot of the complaints come from but its due to the fact it's a beta.

I got the beta key a week or two ago through sign up. All of my matches were between the same 20 people who rushed me before i could make a defense or quit when i said "Im new, ill do my best just tell me what you need me to attempt." There was no chance to learn and i only won 2 matches because

If I were to battle that Korean-level zealot, I'd admit my poor skills then use "modify the phase variance" to instantly Dark Templar-rush the enemy...unless if the opponent is Zerg.

BTW....great I forgot.

[url=#user_comment_27980]@KloHunt3r[/url] and Helarias I think it's just a different style of thinking/humor, because I got all these practically immediately. Since Nerfnow! originally started as a no-dialogue comic, part of the charm is not needing paragraphs of exposition to set up a joke.

I still can't get the melee matches in sc2. Maybe I should wait til its really out and just stick to campaigns, custom maps, and map making. =/

@Lazy DM V: Ahh, Alpha Centauri. Why is the combat system of all the Civilization games after AC so terrible? I could barely even play Civ 4 because the system was so awful. And no customizable units? Come on.

On an unrelated note, Protoss' Khala+Avatar.

Helarias said "you really need to work on how your set up your jokes."

I agree. Although, in this case it's a combination of ineffective writing and the fact that Starcraft is difficult to describe in comic format.

[url=#user_comment_27949]@ArmsAreLoud[/url]: Aesthetically, I like SC. Gameplaywise, give me Alpha Centauri, Age of X or DoW anyday. The game will look awesome (though apparently unnecessarily be in 3d), have awesome movies and a good/decent storyline - it's Blizzard. Gameplaywise, though, it's Blizzard. Have fun guys! :)

[url=#user_comment_27923]@BowlerHatMan[/url]: Actually, unless they changed it with this patch, the system is optimized to simply get you into a match quickly. People in copper league have been fighting people in platinum league, and all sorts of other inter-league matches. They'll change this for the retail, obviously.

@Random Lurker: I think it's pretty clear the zealot symbolizes the beatdown the human player received from the archon, and it's the archon typing the gg.

Are we sure that's what this comic means? When I saw it, it seemed to me that the Korean won with one click, and the guy on the other side just FELT like he got faceraped. So he types: GG NO RE KTHXBYE 'cause he knows he's not going to have any fun like this. What with the faceraping and all.

You really can't make a comic about this game that makes me interested in trying it, can you? Eh... I think I'll just stick with my turn-based games. Thinking time is fun time.

@that one dude in the comments: I remember, but it turned out to be a Trans-demo apparently.
I just got my Beta, I am happy with it too, but now I'm getting a loop off the same update when I try to play now and then it shuts down. Any ideas why this is happening?

Aaaaand that's why I'll probably never play SC online with Koreans.

Also, aren't Koreans now banned from playing certain games for six hours every day?

[url=#user_comment_27911]@Chaos[/url]: I got into the beta yesterday thanks to a Gamestop preorder and I've been having a fairly good time in it as a casual player. The whole point of the league system is so that people will generally play against people with roughly the same level of skill.

It's true. All asian people really are glowing blue invincible beings who communicate through beating human at videogames. The ones you meet as you go about your day are just remote controlled robots. Also, WTB Engie and Probe-chan figures, plzkthx

I wish Starcraft wasn't so professional-oriented so casual RTS players like myself could actually enjoy it online.

you really need to work on how your set up your jokes. to be honest, it took me too long to grasp what was so funny.

on another note, i think your drawing style is really nice :)

Scarily...possibly *not* as much of a joke as you might think, given the recent scandal about pro SC players and their ties to gambling syndicates...

[url=#user_comment_27894]@Passerby[/url] If you play Terran, the normal way to hold off against Zealot rush is a couple marines and a wall in. That's the way the pros do it :D

I do love me some Starcraft.

And, facing a few zealots early enough in the game is almost certain death. Gotta build better D...

This is actually the beginning of Law Abiding Engineer 2. How many sentries must one girl build to bring the protoss to justice?
Katana

Sorry, but you really need to start adding a bit more context to these things to make them semi-understandable. I couldn't even tell what happened with the "trap" person; for a second I thought their trap worked, and then they were annoyed that people were complaining on the forums.

@Dan B: With a single button press, the Korean gamer caused a Zealot to manifest in real life and murder his opponent's face off. He's simply THAT good.

Obviously, he used some secret SCII means of turning his opponent's computer into a Pylon and warped that zealot/holycraphunter in to facerape him.
