Well since i cant get noticed on kariaks thread, thought i'd do another thread...
I seriously need help with multiplayer tips and flow/what so ever.

I need a european mentor, since the american battlenet is not connect to european... yet... I seriously suck! Gimme a lesson, please :)
 
Well im on the US servers but i might be able to offer advice, what race do you play?
 
I love protoss because of their zealots... :D

Zerg is too advanced and requires much skill...

Terran is noobie imo!

Yeah.. first off don't call any race hard/medium/easy they are all balanced, some just seem harder/easier to learn to play based on someones playstyle. Each race clicks with someone.

To start you off www.wiki.teamliquid.net for build orders.
 
If you feel more comfortable with a certain race, use it. Stick to Terran if you're better with them and watch how your opponents/allies use Protos and learn from them. Or use Youtube. I learned how to play Zerg through it and while I'm not great, I'm doing decently well.

Eh, overpowered? I think this is one of the best balanced RTS games ever, each race has a unit that can counter race X's unit Y - the trick is to figure out which unit counters which.
It's easy to say that Terran is overpowered if you play - say - protoss and have no clue what you're doing and soon find yourself rushed with 5 Thors and over 9000 reapers.

I once rushed a protoss player who had about 6 void rays with 3 bcs and it was complete over kill.
 
But mass Void Rays can easily take out bcs if used correctly.


Used correctly should read: charged up rays before taking on the BCs. With even numbers it's pretty close but if you're massing voids against mass bcs you should really have templars for Feedback anyway. A couple feedbacks and it's game over
 
Use the same tactic as I use pretty often. baneling/zergling rush. It might be hard in the beginning to do but you will get it. I got to diamond using only that one tactic. If you use it correctly it has a 70% succes rate. It's pretty cheap but damn it works :). Vs Terran/Toss you just blow that wall away with ur banelings :)

Edit: also feel free to add me ingame, I'm on both Eu & Us. Look at sig below.

if people know the rush is coming they will usually intercept and out micro the rush somewhere away from there base it is nowhere near a full proof plan against experienced players and depending on how good the counter was too it they will rip your base to shreds while your rebuilding your force if they manage the rush well enough.

That's correct, if you fail with the rush you are usually screwed, but it's very hard to fail with it even against experienced players. Just keep them away from scouting you after you have ur baneling nest up and once you are inside their base you just rush with those speedlings to the workers. Will ruin his economy. Still that's why I said 70% succes rate even in platinum league. And if you're in silver/bronze you might even have a 90% succes rate ;)
