UPDATE: You can now try StarCraft 2 for free! Blizzard released a free "starter edition", which has 4 campaign missions and lets you play vs the AI or in custom games with Terran. You still have to buy the game to ladder or play as protoss/zerg. For more info, see here.
Hey guys. I'm sure many of you play/watch/have heard of StarCraft 2. If anyone casts, or just has some interesting games, you can post them here too. I'll keep a list.
So this is a thread where you can talk about StarCraft 2, share replays, share character codes, etc. StarCraft is much more fun when you have people to play against that aren't on ladder. If you post your character code, I'll add it to the list. I'll do my best to keep this updated.
If people are interested enough, we could make our own little team/clan. All skill levels welcome. Naming ideas needed.
"What is StarCraft 2?"
"I'd understand better if I saw it"
"I don't think I'm very good and am scared of playing online. How can I get ready?"
"Alright cool. Who can I play/practice with?"
Here is a list of the SpeedSolving StarCraft 2 Players so far. To add them, just type their name and character code in the "Add Friend" section in StarCraft. Your friend's list can be opened at the bottom right. Tell me if your league/race changes.
List of replays/casts.

"What is StarCraft 2?"
StarCraft 2 is an online sci-fi Real-Time Strategy game played by millions of people. There are three races in StarCraft. The Zerg, an evolved race of bug-like creatures. The Terran, a human race with mechanical units. The Protoss, a high-tech race with lots of lasers. More on the races here. StarCraft is played competitively world-wide with many large tournaments, many of which have first place prizes in the 5-digits. A lot of the fun of StarCraft comes from playing with friends. If you purchase the game, then post here and we'll help you get started.
As I said there are many tournaments. Just Google "vods of" MLG / DreamHack / TSL3, you should find some. VOD stands for Video on Demand. Many people on YouTube "cast" or "commentate" games, such as Husky. Just search for "StarCraft 2 Cast". You can also check out sc2casts.com.Watching the game is also a lot of fun.
There are many helpful guides online. A particularly nice (free) one is Ajek's SC2 Guide. If you go to Section G of this guide and follow it, you'll easily be a gold level player by the end. If you'd rather video, then Sean "Day[9]" Plott has a video series called the "Day[9] Daily". He is a top-tier player from the StarCraft 1 days. Look for his videos that say "Newbie Tuesday". Some other series are this, this, and this. Of course, I'm sure people here will help you out as well. Good luck and Have fun.
