Well yeah I started playing online, and things are very different. Fastest maps are too fast, and I can't play well.

I was wondering what is the best way to start in a fastest map?

I pwn you in Scoutzknivez :D

do cocaine

Only machine gunners are flooding because they are envy."who do you think has best stratergies?"

dont play fastest

peace.

pick a race you want to be (protoss/zerg/terran ) stick w/ it and learn all the hot keys, it cuts down time when you dont have to click through. Be sure to have aloot of drones to be getting minerals/gas for you. Dont ever get caught w/out enough depots/pilons/overlords, It will significantly slow down your production. Althought im definatly not the best my first few minutes on terran usualy go something like this:
8th scv - make 1st supply depot(after its done ill make 2 more)
12/13/14th scv's - make barracks.
(after barracks are done) 12/13/14/(1 more) - make refinery's have them farm them after, send 1 more scv to each one when you can)
then make factory once i have enough money for tanks to defend base

n i have my barracks pumping marines for base defense the second their completed.
also keep pumping scv's and my 8th scv is still making depot's

Change accordingly to your teams strat, like if your rushing you wouldnt make refinery's that fast but possibly more barracks

gl O_o

Old account baned? yay..

I play terran on this map. And let me tell you how many times I lost because of a protoss; either rushed by zealots or cannons in my base. It's important to scout your base to make sure enemies aren't building inside yours. Also, the trick is to not make defense but rather attack. It's typical for there to be hoards of carriers, battlecruisers and guardians, so make sure you're ready to counter that.

Also, make use of all your units to the fullest extent, such as ghost, science vessel battlecruisers etc.

I don't know if this is good, but when I am protoss...

zeals/speed zeals/obs/drags... and then mass
zeals/speed zeals/obs/carriers
zeals/speed zeals/obs/reavers/corsairs
rush cannons

Zerg
lings/speed lings/ create huge mass
lings/hydra/hydra range and speed create mass +dark swarm
lings/hydras/mutas (rush destroy their base(like the mineral and gas ones)
lings/hydras/mutas/guardians = tank destruction!!!!
rush drones and create those cannon things on enemy bases.

Terran
rines/range up
rines/tanks
rines/tanks/goliaths
rines/tanks/battlecruisers
rines/tanks/nukes
(tell a zerg teammate to put ol over your base)

Obviously Up.
I am a zerg player, but I like to play more than one race, to just to see its weaknesses.

Old account baned? yay..

1) kill their nexus
2) game over
3) never play fastest again

lol......ok i used to be a fastest player BUT here is an effective strat for protoss...
get forge first to be safe. then get 3 nexuses but also get cannons on top of minerals or below (depending on position) then mass gate..gg why do you get 3 more nexuses? you get 4x workers and your economy will increase

but play regular plz fastest takes NO SKILL

peace.

GO TERRAN AND BUILD 2 LAYERS OF TURRETS AND AROUND A DOZEN (OR MORE) TANKS IN YOUR OPENING AREA THING (BLOCKED BY BARRACKS, SUPPLY DEPOTS, ETC).

BUILD BATTLECRUISERS
WIN.

CbE is a troll !!!!

Nothing wrong with playing fastest. It's fun playing it w/ friends and it's a good map for beginners to get use to the game and find out which race they want to play.

trust me, protoss is easier to start with. but later on it gets hard because they get owned by terran/zerg. terran is in the middle. zerg is hard to learn, but once you get better, it's really easy to win

but it all depends on the player ofc

peace.

money maps blow, they take no skill compared to non money. starcraft is all about speed and economics. make sure you're ALWAYS producing units where ever you can, and make sure you use your hotkeys. always keep producing scvs, probes, drones, etc.

although if you just play for fun, money maps are okay i guess. lol usually try to be protoss on such a map as that because protoss is the most powerful race in the game, considering protoss units have energy shields. on a money map, just make 4 gateways and mass zealots with your teammates.

basically whoever builds the most units the shortest amount of time win in Fastest map...
build 6 barracks...mass...attack within 10minutes

#focaL HTGN-Pro CAL-Invite DotA

yo who plays this come in #situationclutch we play lot of starcraft always looking for more

#16 thats the dumbest logic ever most units in shortest amount of time wins? think about that locigcally and get back to me...build 6 barracks...mass...attack within 10minutes? cuz in 10 mins I can have a tank D setup with 12 bcs 1/4 of the way complete by the time u get into my base, even if u do, I have 12 bcs waitin for ur ass.

if u ar toss this is the BEST start !!!!!!!!!
-when u have 8 probes build pylon(above nexus)
-when u get 400 minerals bild nexus(above)
-whenyou got 400 minerals again build another nexus(above)
-now start build 5 asmilators and put 2 probes in it
-than make pylon "down from main nexus"
-in upper pylon make forge
-whn it's done mak 3 cannons (down the nexus)and 3 cannons(up the nexus)
-on the down pylon make a lots of gateways(as more u can put in your location)
-while u making gateways make sure that you ar making army in gatewaysyou have
-dont forget to have cybernetics core as fast u can

SORRY ABOUT MY ENGLISH :)

rush isn't always best solution
-in this tactics you have 6 cannons so no one can rush you ;)

#13 for me the terran race is the hardest :S

zerg-easiest
toss-middle
