Lol whut? Inject Lava is the same (albeit not as critical) as Chronoboost.

The only difference I see is spreading creep, what else is there?

I am just going to respond with what any zerg would reposnd with;

ARE YOU NUTS?

basically no injects equals no units to put things in the extreme

I just read that and lolled.

Glade didnt say macro, or even say injects in that quote.

Misinterpreted to the max.

[nirvAnA]

yea basically all top players share the same sentiment.

zerg is the most mechanical race and protoss the least.

injecting alone from multiple queens every 25 seconds + multiple creep spread + overlord spread

missing a few chronoboosts here and there is still acceptable but with zerg you get penalised hard for missing injects and storing up energy. you wont be able to make enough units. im actually really happy as a protoss cause im lazy to do all those mechanical stuff and it lets us focus more on the strategic aspect

This is quite exciting haha, can't wait til its finished. Kudos to nirvAnA and everyone else who were a part of the process of this manual.

Quick Comments

[nirvAnA]

In preparation for the launch, the FAQ is up.

Any other questions feel free to ask.

Release will be this Sunday, 10pm SGT, midnight AEST!

You mention IP checks to stop multiple people using the same account, but I don't have a static IP. Each time my modem resets or is turned off (fairly frequently, like twice a day....the exchange in my area has been HORRIBLE for the past year), I get a new IP.

I've had troubles with Rift "coin-locking" me when my IP changes, thinking that my account has been hacked. Other sites do the same thing, asking me for my secret question/answer because I'm "logging in from a new location"

[nirvAnA]

yea not a worry Avelestar.

we will account for dynamic ips but if we detect like simultaneous logins or different ips/locale then clearly somethings wrong

[PantlessPete]

Awesome, thanks nirvAnA.

Looks Interesting, doubt i'd invest money unless their was some kind of trial though. Maybe the ability to buy one or two days access is on the cards?

Thats the reason why there is a preview of a chapter shown.

[Nofan]

Well i don't know, The preview's seem very basic common knowledge with nothing that special in there. I might buy a month and see what it's like but a month does feel like a big commitment.

[Paroxysm]

Thats the point of previews We can't have nirvAnA disclosing his secrets to just anyone now can we?

[nirvAnA]

Thanks guys for the support.

The Grandmaster Manual has been officially launched!
