@PiG Shareni here, sorry for a shitty game, but I had to submit it because i haven't seen that level of crazy in a long while. My gameplay in this game was genuine eu high plat, but i play sc2 only when i'm really high. Thanks to you, i have "good" foundations, and thanks to watching you and @harstem i've got up to date builds from the top players. I've been playing zerg since BW and watching your bronze to gm actually got my macro to improve and realize that i should play protoss. Less than a month after this replay i'm solidly in d3, my macro is a lot better, and i've never played more fun sc. I hope i can soon make games that aren't only fun to spectate because of crazy people. #PiGmadeatossoutofme

Putting your production buildings in front of your defensive fortifications is a little non-intuitive if you aren't used to RTS logic.

So...I just looked up Japanese Ronald McDonald because of you Pig and ... uh ... I have questions. I have all the questions.

Remember, on EU most people are not native English speakers

I like people who think the other person is worse when they lose to them. Like....if you were better, you would win, that's how it works. Like until the pros stop playing a race, it's likely not that Imba .

I beat a guy once with an scv rush and he raged at me so hard. Blocked me, and now every game we play he immediately rages and then all game will call me name lol its actually quite entertaining.

Joke is on both of these clowns, I peaked at D2 with like 40 games 💀

Chaos Master WREAKS of "I only played the first few Heart of the Swarm Campaign Missions and have decided Zerg will be my main race for the PvP" with how low-level his tactics and play are.

AAAAAAAAA, PiG said "kurwa"! :DDD Actually the meaning and use of "kurwa" is way more complex than the dictionary definition of a "whore". It's mostly used to express emotions, like anger(very short, very loud pronunciation, or long "r" sometimes finished with "(twoja) mać" for added effect. ["Kurwa (twoja) mać" literally means "(your) Whore mother", but nowadays it's rarely used as an insult, only just a cry/shout.], disappointment (long "u"), excitement or happiness (different tone followed by "tak!" or "jest!"), comma(if your vocabulary is poor) and many more. Like for example putting more emphatics, saying "Ty kurwa deklu." is stronger than just "Ty deklu", kinda like adding "fucking" in a insult in English. Also if you really want to call someone a "kurwa" properly, you have to use "(ty) kurwo" due to Polish declension. "Ty" can be skipped as "kurwo" already contains the information that you're talking about the person you're talking with.
