Hmm, I keep feeling like inca probably has some pretty cool stuff up his sleeve, but he's never really impressed me. At least not in the same way the Hero/FXO_z/MC have.

Man, nothing feels like ending a good winning streak by choosing terran by mistake.
Edit: One can argue that choosing terran is always a mistake.
I also realise that I am terrible, so terrible, at offracing. My zerg is maybe low gold. My terran is like... wood leauge.
Surprisingly enough, it seems like most people who try offracing terran do much worse at it than those that try offracing as protoss or zerg.
For me, it's very matchup specific. My TvP and ZvP are both probably high platinum/low diamond, but the other matchups are pretty rough because I don't have a good grip on the timings. I love playing TvZ or ZvT though, such fun matchups.
I actually thought "I can do this, its protoss, I know what kills me!"
Then I build the 12 barracks, 16 oc and realised I knew NOTHING else.
I think it's 15 OC
It definitely was until they increased barracks build time by 5 seconds.
I think that is where the uncertainty comes up (it doesn't line up perfectly with what people used to do).
It also pisses me off when I see professional players extractor trick. I doubt there is any reasoning behind it, it's just a stubborn holdover from BW.
Real SEA. I had a friend who was visiting hong Kong who claimed he had found a bunch of korean copies of the game, but what probably happened was he just found boxes with asian characters on them and he didn't realize what language they were.
Regardless, I ended up buy a Korean account anyways, and now I have altogether way too many Starcraft accounts. Especially since now I get an extra NA account.

anyway yeah, I didn't expect bomber to go out but at least it has led to better racial distribution to this point.

The shame drives the desire to sabotage one's own build for the sake of justice and all that is holy.

trying to remember the fancy tl topic i saw with graphs and such
i thiiiinkk 16OC works out better in the long run
there were a lot of bars and lines and stuff

listen
the person who made this topic had clearly spent a lot of time in excel in high school
i think i trust them a lot more than i trust you
edit: on the other hand that does mean i'm better than nestea up until 10 food though
take that

His math says 16 OC nets you 15 minerals over 15 OC at the 10 minute mark unless you 1Rax FE in which case 15 OC nets you 70 minerals over 16 OC.
The difference is negligible, especially given that in practice no one is going to have perfect worker production for 10 whole minutes.
yeah that's the reason to do it. You end up with an extra drone when a 6 pool hits or something.
Actually though. Whenever I played as terran and I'd try to all-in, the subconscious shame would make me hold back most of my SCVs, and so it'd fail.

No. Very, very fractionally less economical, nothing else really to note about it.
e: 6 pools don't even hit in time for extractor trick to provide you with more drones at that moment, by something like a minute.
I haven't seem him in forever but I liked his playstyle so much back then.

They do everything to troll us. They don't even like Starcraft, they just play it to troll us.
