Never knew what I was looking at so stopped watching after a while. However, a few months back, a good friend of mine introduced me to StarCrafts on YouTube. Best. Thing. Ever. I watched it all and HAD to play the game afterwards. I also HAD to play Toss. Dat Zealot.

I started playing in... April I think, but struggled to get past level 2 training mode. Lame huh. So I wandered away from the game to play other things. But then, not sure what prompted me, last week I decided to get back into it and have played approx. 80 games. Got past level 3 training mode and moved on to vs A.I. Can beat Hard, but that's about it. My APM is only 20. I've been watching a lot of streams and replays from GMs but I'm not improving much. Just need to play more games I know, but the slow going is a little de-motivating.

I play on the NA server since it's more populated. Only 3 friends so far, could do with some more. Feel free to add me! Also any advice would be much appreciated. I don't really have a weakest match-up right now since I struggle against them all atm.

Anyways, I hope to be making some friends here so please drop a line and say hello.

Hey man!

I'd love to play some games with you on NA, add me.

Hi mate,

Welcome to SC2SEA!

With the APM issue, the best thing to do is practice knowing what the hotkey on the keyboard is for everything and being able to touch-type so you can make things fast with the use of both keyboard and mouse. The next step is to have a plan of what you want to make ("I'm in a PvZ and I want to open Forge expo > Phoenix and go from there on what I scout") to reduce pause or thinking time. Finally I would suggest you play lots of games to hone your mechanics. I'm more than happy to help you out, if you see me on NA in the SC2SEA group, msg me and I'll run you though Protoss 101.

GL HF!

Not sure what else to throw in here.

Enjoying the game, might stream in the future, I'm mostly a WoW player, really enjoying the new xpac

Kambodia · Mon, 29th-Dec-2014, 5:45 AM

Hey all!

Gold SEA Zerg. Singapore. Soon to move to Sydney for studies. Clearing up NS in the mean time. Used to be D+ Zerg on iCCup a loooooong time ago.

Should I move over to NA now thou? Will there be lag issues?

That's all 'bout me!

!

DGWoLF · Mon, 29th-Dec-2014, 4:18 PM

Hey Kambodia Welcome to sc2sea.com Once your in sydney i feel NA or KR ladder is the best option for practice. Sadly sea has a very very very small user base.

Shoudnt be any lag issues if you have ok Internet.

**Elusory** · Mon, 29th-Dec-2014, 4:49 PM

Yo Kambodia, fellow Singaporean here. You should have 200+ ping to NA, while having sub 100 to KR. Most people on SC2SEA play on NA and KR. No one here plays SEA because SEA is a dead server, and everyone just gets too much ping to EU. You should have better practice on KR, take advantage of your ping

Hi LaMa, welcome to SC2SEA! Hope you'll frequent this site more and hang out at the chatbox!

Servers recommended would be NA and KR as long as delays aren't that high. Not many people play SEA anymore, as you can see there are less than 16 GMs there. Join up a clan if you're looking for people of your level to play with!

Hi. I am Amiel. I am from the Philippines.

I am a fan of SCII, but I haven't played it yet. I'm planning to buy a copy of the game soon, though. Nice to meet you all!

My HS Battlenet ID is Hamham#1949. Thank you!

Welcome

There's a decent lan scene in Melbourne, cool to meet other local players. Respawn run regular byo pc events. Silicon sports also are good for a couple of lans. Hopefully an ACL this year.

Otherwise you can signup for any non restricted league events online for a bit of fun.

Oh you're Diamond? You'll be sure to be picked up by a team soon Kappa (inside joke, don't take offense). It really is a great time to join our community. Be sure to keep in contact with people around here, and be in chatbox...and compete in our weekly tournaments, such as SEAcraft Weekly and SEAcraft Melee, Monday and Thursday nights at 8pm.

davidchandra · Mon, 19th-Jan-2015, 8:06 AM

We have lots of Tournaments. If you are using starter edition, then you should be able to play...because yes, people use custom games to play in tournaments.

just sneaking in a hello....

I'm still in baby phase of learning SC2 (still plinking with very-easy AI) but I like watching pro games (to the point of pulling all-nighters watching GSL/NSSL/PL live).
Baking cute cookies is my new hobby, and some of you may have seen photos of said cookies in various places of the interwebs.

I can also help with the JP/EN interpreting and/or correspondence translation if needed, feel free to PM here or tweet (at)baratie (or if you're phil, poke me on CranK's stream) if there is such a need.

Not too familiar with the SEA scene yet, hope to get to know y'alls this year
