Starcraft, proposition for AnandTech Starcraft channel on USEast

[t3h l337 n3wb]

Now, I know most people will be saying, "OMFG SC IS GAY, THE GRAPHICS SUCK AND ITS TOO OLD". Well, will Counter Strike or Halo be alive after 7 years, as Starcraft has? Absolutely not. Will Starcraft every change an entire country (South Korea) forever by making it pretty much a national sport with profession teams, salleries, televised matches, and other tournaments? NO!!!! Starcraft is still an amazing game that offers the best RTS experience possible. So, I have a proposition. AnandTech should be a Starcraft channel on USEast. It could be a good place to look for matches and to re-aquaint yourselves with the game. And I dont mean just wasting time playing UMS (custom) and money maps all the time. I'm talking serious melee action on professoinal gaming maps (Lost Temple, Nostalgia, Luna, Requiem, etc just to name a few). Comments, ideas, etc? Btw, I'm obsessed with SC and thats the only game I play currently

*EDIT*
I'm t3h_l337_n3wb on USEast.

i did very well about 5 years ago, i remember climbing up the ladder ranks and being very proud and always boasted about it.

the last update patch i remember was when they nerf the ling dmg and increase the carrier resources. my fast time for 12 carrier rush was 8.xx mins. w/ choke.

ah... the memories

- 4 ling rush
- marine and bot rush
- zealot harass
- turtle tanks

"nuclear launch detected" /me oh noes !!!

If you two both play everyday on the pro maps, Anandtech really isn't the place to look for practice partners. Check out TeamLiquid.net.

Sorry, I dont think I'll be playing starcraft against someone called the leet noob... I dont feel like getting pwned by someone who hasnt been playing long.
