Your shiny little Colossi are no match for Mutalisks, Greg.

We learned that last night.

The 'toss were my favorite race in the first game. I still haven't decided whether I'll get SC2, but if I do I'll certainly be maining them again.

The only thing that went down was his base at the hands (er, claws?) of the swarm.

Thank god that the matchmaking is so brilliant, otherwise it may have put me up against his Funkness himself.

Hurray for my poor playing skills!

Slycne and I did win 3 matches out of 5 though. The only thing that went down was your quick expansions at the hand of my three zealots.

Who's laughing now, Funk?

Is it just me or does this just cover enough info to get you prepared for the bronze league? Really this isn't close to the detail you'd need to go silver or higher from what I've seen.

Does the mighty carrier unit still win you the game if you get 12 of them fully upgraded?

I destroyed so many opponents like that.

We're not trying to do utterly comprehensive strategy guides. For those, you'd be better served going to sites like Team Liquid. These are just kind of introductions to the races and some of the new shinies :)

Yeah, let's see you laugh when you don't have the most experienced of the four on your side harassing me with Reapers. You wanna 1v1, biznitch? You wanna 1v1?

Hence the 101, this isn't a 600 level course. ;)

The Zerg deffinately got the best video here, enough to make me want to try them but then realize I still suck with them. This Protoss video is still good, just the Terran was kind of meh, and they're my favorites.

I have an awesome idea mods. Could you save your battles and show them? That would be AMAZING. I would love all of you forever.

I'm not going to say anything beyond this, but we have one final piece of SC2 beta content planned for next week... :)

Reapers? What Reapers? Hey look over there at those Zealots attacking the front of your base. Oh , you didn't need all these workers and that Roach Warren right?

For what it's worth, I beat like five-six of your Reapers with two Roaches, so...
