Season 8: New map changes!

Season 8, which begins the week of June 11, will bring with it some changes to the 1v1 and 2v2 map pools. In season 7, we experimented with a larger 1v1 map pool. After reviewing player feedback, we’ll be returning to a pool of 8 maps. We will continue to maintain a heavy focus on tournament viable 1v1 maps, and that thought process has influenced our decisions regarding which maps will be removed from the ladder for Season 8. The new maps...

Destiny in a Nutshell.

Again, another video describing a famous StarCraft 2 player in a short six-minute video. I promise you this guy is nothing like IdrA even though he's a Zerg player! He's more lively and probably less of a d***-bag than IdrA. I mean seriously, watching this guy's live stream hell'a fun and you won't regret every second of it. I mean who else could make a analogy with banelings and rape? No one, but Destiny. Not only that, Destiny is a...

IdrA doing what he does best.

Oh Idra. You never cease to amaze me. This video is all you need to sum up IdrA's personality and his attitude in-game. For those who don't know how IdrA is, I'll just give you a short-short description of him. IdrA hates everyone. EVERYONE.  No matter who you are, play anything other than Zerg, you end up on his 'Hate-List'. He's well known to BM (Bad Manner) after losing a match and keeping a bit of a grudge.  Here's a picture...

[PvP] Countering the infamous 4 Gate.

If you follow this guide and practice the following build, you will NEVER lose to 4gate on maps with a ramp ever again. Consider 4gate an artifact, some random build you see on TDA and Bel'shir, but never anywhere else. While 4gate was already on its way out thanks to nerfs and builds that can better handle it, the spreading of the information here should solidify its extinction for those who read it. 1 Gate before Twilight This build is...
