Thread Starter 
So I played starcraft 2 with a guest pass, played against ai a few times to get used to the game again. Felt good, I remembered how to use macros and whatnot... went online and I got handled...... it was horrible.

Does anybody know any good strategies?

Don't try and learn how to play by doing cheesing strats it won't help you in the long run! thumb.gif What I did when I was learning SC2 and also what I did in SC1 was download replays of mid to upper skill players and try and understand their strategies.
