Plague Champion vs Brother Captain

Hello everyone, I need some help with this matchup. The other day I faced the Brother-Captain whilst playing the Plague Champion (in a 3v3) and found myself unable to stop even a single one of his attacks. My BO was: CSM-Havocs-Raptors in T1 and then Letters in T2. Since I was doubled quite a few ti...

Re: Elite 1v1 skill rating system

Is the skill rating system still being kept up to date? If not, would it be possible to automate the process of entering new games? The chat could be screened for a phrase that both players have to use at least once so it is obvious, that both players want a match to be ranked. You have already impl...

Re: Soundbug solution

Is this maybe a memory related issue (i.e. memory leak)? If you (Hiveminion) say this happens when you set quality and sound settings to high this might be the case. Maybe somebody knows how much memory dow2.exe was using prior to the crash. I think it would also help to get some console output from...

Re: how would i improve my micro beyond this point?

Basically what Atlas and Vapor said. You must master the ability to move your hand over your keys blindly. In my opinion, there is no shortcut to better micro. It may sound not important but consider that visually checking which key you are about to press takes up not milliseconds but 1-3 seconds, m...

Re: GK - OP?

These changes sound reasonable (especially those to the Brother Captain). I am still quite skeptical about Interceptors becoming a T3 unit, essentially robbing GK of the only AV snare they had (before T3 that is).

EDIT: The DE discussion is topic of another thread. Didn't see that earlier.

Re: Stormshield = best wargear for the price in game?

Apart from the scenarios Vapor and Torpid mentioned above (those ARE scary), maybe we could hear a few more before deciding it is OP. At the top of my head I can only think of IG having problems with it because of their lack of dedicated melee units (although Catas pack quite a punch). All other rac...

Re: Would anyone be interested in this event?

I have to admit I wasn't a fan of 1v1s for a very long time but I am warming up to them. I get Torpids point on people not wanting to play vs the good players. It is just frustrating to constantly loose if there is nobody around to help you improve. It is a strength-of-character thing though. Some a...

Re: New CSM player seeks knowledge on how to stop

I noticed you rotated the camera in the 6v6 on Ice Gate to a kind of behind your units view. Though it looks cool, it reduces your ability to see the things you need to see, e.g. units coming in from behind or even reinforcement coming in, which can severly cost you your units or make you retreat yo...

I went for the mentioned basetrap and was almost at the recieving end of it once too. Both times it was avoided through teamplay.
