Hey dudes,

If you wanna be One Cool Dude, have a read, tweet it and upvote on reddit. These things really help me get feedback to write better articles and content for you guys!

The most captivating aspect of the internet is the freedom it gives you, anyone can do whatever and whenever online. If we can continue to dodge... [Read More]

Hey ho guys again!!

Once again I am bored at work, and figure I would lay down some stuff!!! I figured I would start off with probably WTF are you doing lately (Its a pretty common question) and that in the past few months a lot has happened.

First off my realisation of how hard it is to produce content above a standard replay cast. There have been a few ideas here and there about things I could be uploading to YouTube however it always comes down to a couple things: Not enough time... [Read More]

In case you've been wondering what happened to him. Really interesting stuff, talks about the hardships he face in Korea, what happened at Red Bull Battleground, his thoughts on mechanics, etc.

Let's say in theory a practice house opened up in Tamworth. It costs you $50/week to stay but you have to bunk with other people. Tamworth has nbn (100/40 connection). You have to buy your own food.

How many of you would actually be keen to live there? Only reply yes if you actually can or would - no would like to but cant.

Over the last few days I have played the most SC2 I EVER have and I feel have been improving rapidly.

However what continues to frustrate me is I have no clear idea of where I am apart from 'Platinum Rank 1' and the 'Favoured, Slightly favoured and Teams Even' indication. I went from Gold > Platinum at the start of this season after placement. Ever since then I think I have gone ~50-18 or so in games, with MASSIVE win streaks and one fairly large loss streak. Yet I seem to be placed against... [Read More]

ohhh yea fenner is right. Premiere is so much more powerful hahaha!

I’ve never made a blog before, mostly because I really didn’t feel the need to share my thoughts with the greater community, but the last month or two have really made me think it’s time I did.

Since the start of last year I have been a part of this community and have loved almost every second of it. My dealings with people have been great on the whole. So many great people, giving up their own time to help one another, to run tournaments, keep this site up to date; put their own personal... [Read More]

I have included pictures where they may helpful so let me know if anything is unclear

Ingredients - Marinade

Pardon the amateur-ness of this video T_T. I understand people could easily just google these issues and get the same information but I wanted to put it under the context of video gaming with the associated tags! Hope you enjoy and the information is helpful to you!

Also if you would so kindly up vote the post on reddit to help it get reached to more people that would be greatly appreciated!

Time for a different blog to hit! Or rather, one that has been seen before but hasn't been seen in a long time.

Like the title, I got myself a new desktop rig. If you were in chat during Monday, you would've seen the questions and discussion. I was suppose to get the parts only on Thursday (is a public holiday this week here in ), assemble the parts on Friday and do everything from installing to transferring of data during the weekend.

However, a stroke of pure dumb panda luck and some of... [Read More]

Aiming to become Australia's best Terran!
Still far from it, but it's becoming more n more fun by the day.
so many interesting challenges i love it.
been playing terran since broodwar and got pretty high up back when i was 14 then gave it all away when i started playing FPS games.


This year got plenty of goals to achieve aside from the one i listed above.
Going to start up and push E sports Within Australia further and begin it all from my home state of Victoria.
Going to push my... [Read More]

So after a good day at the Internet City LAN in Brisbane, meeting new people, having a blast, I play NXZ in the loser bracket quarterfinals. I lose 2-0 and overall pretty happy with my performance and happy with the day I had. Until my brother informs me right after my games that within the spectator room, a bunch of people (mainly Alpha) have been talking shit at about my play.

I’m pretty damn pissed about this considering how after all that has happened between IXL and mGG, I can be civil... [Read More]

of spiders in the sun blocker thing (a google search informs me that it's called a "visor". Cool.) of my car. Like Jesus Christ. It's not one of those fears that haunts me. I don't live in constant terror. I don't even remember when I get in the car.

And that's the problem. I'll remember that I'm absolutely ******* petrified of what lurks beneath while I'm in transit. Generally when I'm going through an intersection. At this point, I'm almost positive that me checking for non existent... [Read More]

Today was my first time making a video and uploading it on youtube.



Starring EscapisT & nirvAnA.

Youtube features look really good this is going to be fun as we go around making videos of the best places in Singapore. Still have a long way to go with video editing, any tips are appreciated.

Hey everyone. Haven't posted on sc2sea in months now, haven't even played sc2 in a few months now. Been on holidays, been playing a few other games (dat dota2), and just generally with work and study I didn't have time for it. It had started to feel like work trying to keep up with the builds and keep up with my mechanics, it just felt like I was putting effort into it but not getting anything out of it. But watching the ACL announcements tonight made me remember the fun I had going to LANs and... [Read More]

I've just launched a new blogspot which is going to act as a home for articles and such related to E-SPORTS (mostly about the SEA scene), which are going to try and focus on being positive and contributing to the scene.

The first article is about PASSION, the SEACL and ACL this year!

Here's the first two paragraphs:



We're encroaching upon the third week of 2013 and drama has been hitting fever-pitch. Passion and anger circulates through the gossip organs of our e-sports body.... [Read More]

Figured I'd write a blog outlining my goals in SC2 for the next year. But first a quick 2012 recap ^.^
2012 was an amazing year me for, I moved to NZ for uni, met some awesome people, and had a really good time. Some highlights would be barcrafts (and the barcraftnz tournaments), being a part of auckland uni's sc2 club and meeting so many people from so many different backgrounds/hobbies/andwhathaveyou. Oh and also possibly the best christmas I've ever had, can't say I remeber a whole lot of... [Read More]

Hello! I'm currently doing a FYP as part of my IS course in uni. The project can be summed up by the following 2 points:

1) Usability testing of graph database for users
2) Graph database prototype for the Player/Replay database on sc2sea




Calling out for interested volunteers to test an executable prototype to PM for more details!

As part of the project, i will need to conduct surveys. Here is the the first survey:

Survey 1 status: Closed
Survey 2 status: Open

So my account has been locked yesterday, and I've been trying to reset my password. However, whenever i go to sea.battle.net, battle.net redirects me to us.battle.net, and as a result my sc2 game key doesn't work.

I'm not sure why blizzard redirects me to us- but I've tried sending a support ticket etc. but you kinda have to be logged in to send a ticket in the first place (-.-) and I'm actually just stumped.

If anybody has any ideas, please post below, thanks!

So 2 things happened tonight that have got me pretty happy after a pretty shitty last few days. 1. mGG got our selves a new personal record for number players in the mGG Public chat channel (just search: mGG). Tonight we managed to reach a Whopping 58 people! Ill say that again, FIFTY-EIGHT PEOPLE!

Have to say thats the largest iv ever seen a chat channel on sc2 other then ones used for tournaments (even then not sure if Iv seen any that big). Since interacting with players out side of mGG... [Read More]

Before i start my rant, i know zerg isn't totally impossible but i just feel that its a race that leans on the OP side and needs to be discussed.

Zerg is legit a pain to verse, everytime i see a PvZ on ladder i cant help but cringe and feel a little fustrated already knowing theres a 94% chance i've lost this game. I try EVERYTHING. The immortal sentry, 1 base 4 gate +1, 1 base dt, 2 base blink +2 push even just standered macro, but nothing works. No matter how hard i dare try i just lose to... [Read More]
