The StarCraft II: Wings of Liberty matchmaking engine works behind the scenes to ensure fun and evenly matched multiplayer games, but you might be curious about how the ranking system works. We've got you covered. Let's answer some of your most frequently asked questions about StarCraft II multiplayer leagues and ladders. You may also want to read our StarCraft 2 Campaign Missions and Achievements Guide . Frequenlty Asked Questions Q. How do I participate in the StarCraft II leagues and ladders system? A. To play a ladder match, click the Multiplayer menu item in the top left, select a mode from 1v1, 2v2, 3v3, or 4v4, select a race, and then click Find Match. After playing in five placement matches within one mode (e.g. five 1v1 matches) you will be placed in a ladder for that mode. Note that Free For All (FFA) or arranged matches where you choose to play against specific friends do not count toward placement in a league, or ranking up or down within the ladder system.

Here are some user contributions on how to win the very last level of Starcraft 2 Wings of Libert. I had the siege tanks upgraded all the way, and killed off the air units. I found that, if you got rid of the AIR, then you can use TONS of siege tanks…and just use bunkers mostly as walls….constantly have 4-5 SCV’s repairing the bunkers, a couple medics if you desire to heal them, and just constantly keep pumping siege tanks. Make sure you upgrade their damage. It’s basically trial and error as to how you set up your tanks. Although it sucks against Ker, putting them in a nice big bunch as close to your “wall” as possible i found to be the most effective. Took my 10-15 tries… X-D

Here are some cheats you can use when playing StarCraft 2 Campaign. Shooter Minigame Click on the arcade machine on the Hyperian to play a space shooter mini game. Extra Chatter and Animal Murder To make animals explode, just keep double clicking on one at a pretty quick rate. After 10-15 clicks or so, the show will start. Also, the amount of polish in the game is amazing. Every single unit has a dozen or more unique dialogue when you click on them repeatedly. The best thing to do though, is assign a unit to a group (1 to 0) and just hold the number button down and listen to the chatter.

1. Extract SC2Folder\Campaigns\Liberty.SC2Campaign\Base.SC2Maps to a folder of your choice 2.

Create a folder with the according map name e.g. TRaynor01 3.2. Copy and paste the template.SC2Map file in there 3.3. Open the template.SC2Map with the MPQ Editor 3.4. Go to the folder where you extracted the files of Base.SC2Maps - in my case: D:\Games\StarCraft II\Maps\Campaign\TRaynor01.SC2Map\ 3.5. Drag and drop the files from the folder in the MPQ Editor 3.6. Close MPQ Editor - rename the template.SC2Map to the map name - in this case TRaynor01.SC2Map To launch the maps - use the SC2 Mapeditor, as drag 'n dropping them over SC2.exe will cause them tojavascript:void(0) bug.

Over its 12-year lifespan, the StarCraft community has developed its own culture, etiquette, and even its own language. As result, if you've never played StarCraft before, you might stumble across unfamiliar acronyms or phrases as you read through various blogs, announcements, forum posts, and comments available throughout the web. This vocabulary can be confusing if you're trying to learn more about the game, so in an effort to help you become fluent in the language of the StarCraft community, we've prepared a series of blogs that highlight and define some of the more popular terms for units, structures, tactics, and greetings. In this first installment, we cover terminology for common units and structures. Like with any language, these terms can evolve and change, but we hope this will help get you started.
