I’m sure I don’t need to tell you how popular StarCraft II is, so it should come as no surprise that StarCraft II set a record for most data transferred on BitTorrent. In case you weren’t aware, that’s illegal. More »

Dear Diary,

It appears that Blizzard has updated their top 200 chart in North America again. It looks like some shifting around has been done, but the master still reigns supreme, and that is SeleCT. HuK definitely made a huge transition, however, and is now up to rank 2 in the charts. I definitely think they are deserving of that place up there. More »

Dear Diary,

Yeah ok so I’m a noob, and I didn’t really completely finish all the campaigns in the original Strarcraft. Lucky for me, Blizzard made the Starcraft II storyline understandable for just about anyone, even the newcomers to the Starcraft universe. The basic line up? More »

Dear Diary,

So as I was looking for a legit site for a ranking system for the top players in Starcraft II, little did I know I could have just checked the Battle.net site for Starcraft II. They updated this quite a while ago, and they will refresh the list with the current top players in the North America every week. This is a helpful tool in looking for who to watch on YouTube when it comes to watching match replays. Oddly I didn’t find LiquidTLO though on this list, then again he’s playing Zerg in most of the matches I watch, and in my opinion, Zerg just plainly suck in the new Starcraft II. Only one of the top 15 players choose Zerg as their race. More »

Dear Diary,

As I find it necessary, I continue to watch many different videos and replays of fights between many different top Starcraft II players, but today I take note of one of the best Protoss player in North America, number 14 to be exact, and that is HuK. Of course, the best way for me to learn to better my technique as a player is to watch from the pros, so I watched some replays involving HuK, but found this one extremely interesting. More »

Dear Diary,

So there’s something intense I’ve found out on the Starcraft II campaign, even more than the Armory and Mercenaries sections, and that is Research. I always resented the Research portion of my Science Fair projects, but I can tell you it is SO worth it in Starcraft II. More »

Dear Diary,

Today I’m going to discuss a peculiar feature of the Starcraft II campaign mode. A great asset in your story mode missions, these semi-upgrades can prove to be of good use. Whether its to get you out of a tight situation when your units aren’t being produced fast enough, or if its just to add more Pow! to your army, this military bonus is not something to be looked down upon. What I’m talking about is, the Mercenaries. More »

Dear Diary,

This is probably the most hilarious thing I have seen yet in Starcraft II. I didn’t notice it until part of the storyline in-game cinematics had the camera angle almost nearly focused on this entertaining object. It’s something so funny that the whole world should know about it. More »

Dear Diary,

Today I came across an unusual area of Starcraft II that I had not mentioned yet. It is part of the campaign for Starcraft II, located on the Battlecruiser you spend a lot of time on after the first few missions. It’s called the Armory, but in essence, it is an upgrade zone for your Terran units. More »

Dear Diary,

Today I decided to take a little time to watch some replays from some of the top gamers in Starcraft 2, and Blizzard RTS in general. Today I decided to watch matches that included MaDFroG, a well known RTS gamer in both Starcraft and Warcraft. Although the videos had commentary in French, gaming is a universal language, and just watching the players compete is enough to understand what they are doing. Here is the YouTube link for the first half of the session of Whitera (Protoss) vs MaDFroG (Zerg). More »

Dear Diary,

So today I was in the mood to play another custom StarCraft 2 game, and I happened to notice that Nexus Wars was no longer the top custom game based on popularity. It has now been replaced with a new (almost similar but not really) custom game titled Income Wars, so I decided to spend some time investigating and playing this new game. More »

There’s a new deadly disease in town and its name is StarCraftaddiction, AKA “Internet Game Addiction.” Word has it this disease is so prevalent that South Korean doctors Han, Hwang and Renshaw actually took the time to run a study on eleven participants in a valiant attempt to cure the malady. Now everyone suffering from StarCraft addiction can now rejoice, because their studies have shown that antidepressant drug Bupropion (which also happens to help smokers stop smoking) successfully reduces a gamer’s obsession to StarCraft.

Dear Diary,

After getting quite hooked to the campaign and its story, lately I have been just playing the campaign and getting farther. For all its cinematics and cool game graphics in game, I just can’t get enough of it. But today I was faced with a challenge that not too many RTS campaign games include, let alone other games in general. Today I was faced with a decision. I had the choice of what to do next? Awkward.
