Oh shit, did they do the friend invites already?

I need to reach my friend FAST.

That was a while back. You would need to work to get one now probably. Maxwell got me mine a while back thankfully. Of course it helps that I was the first to ask probably(I told him he had a beta invite heh).

That was kinda low Machina. I am kind of surprised more people here didn't end up with a key. Oh well. More people I can taunt kkthxla~

Yeah I regret not giving it away now. Mind you, it was bloody low of Blizz to not allow you to play with people outside of your region anyway (which they intend to do with the retail release as well). If they hadn't done that I could've given it away :/

You are telling dying men in the desert, "if blizzard hadn't been playing with that dirt, I wouldn't have had to use the last of the water to wash my car."

In fact, I think this comic explains how I feel right now...

Well, let's see if I can save your life shall we. Check your inbox :P

Let it be known that Machina is the man! Now, I won't offer to name my first child after you, because the existence of SC2 reduces my chance of procreation within the next few years to almost nothing... However, I'll be building a new gaming PC within the next month or so, so I can name that after you...

Yes... And Protoss rushes can be really effective too, since the Protoss have an upgrade that allows them to build faster, and they can teleport units with the gateway too.

nuoh my god. a protoss rush? My dreams have been answered! i always wanted to do a protoss rush but they were always so slow to build and so costly.

I wanted a beta key so bad but wasn't able to get one. Like some other users have said, I watch the videos of HDstarcraft on Youtube.

I noticed that. It seems that it costs very little energy, just 25, and no cooldown. So when the nexus is at full power you can really speed up your overall production.

Just as a note, protoss production is VERY slow... slower than ever... so the speed boost isn't just a bonus.. it's pretty much critical for building an army, unless you like spamming buildings. I actually find it kind of annoying. All your production is very slow, but you can speed it up for 20 seconds almost any time... so you basically need to hotkey every nexus and use it constantly... I think it would be so much better to ever-so-slightly boost toss production by default and remove it. I mean, it's a great skill for top tier players, but the rest of us already have a lot going on, so to try and boost the speed of our buildings constantly is a pain.

Late game, you could have 3-4 nexuses, so you can pretty much keep more than one building at double production speed all the time... you just need to be on top of it every moment. The only thing I like about it, is that it works on upgrades too. That can be handy. Still, 10-15% shorter on building times/upgrades and removing it would be preferable, IMO.
