/r/StarcraftBuilds

What is it?

/r/starcraftbuilds is a subreddit experiment that will be run by the community. The idea is that the subreddit will act as a place to learn, discuss, practice, or experiment with build orders relevant to the current metagame of starcraft II. If you are someone who's looked up builds on Team Liquids Liquipedia in the past, I'm sure you've found that the wiki can occasionally be hopelessly out of date. The goal of this subreddit is to create an up to date archive of build orders, and allowing discussion or refinement of the builds as the metagame shifts.

'But how do you make a archive with Reddit? Wouldn't builds disappear after a few days?' you might ask. If you have ever been to /r/music or the SFW porn network you will have seen the pull down menus they got going on over there. This subreddit uses the same feature, but with links to build order posts, allowing easy navigation to the build order of your choosing. (I suggest you check it out)

How will it work?

The community will be essential to running this subreddit. Posting new builds, replays, reactions to different openings, etc, will fall (for the most part) into the hands of the community. I've tried to throw together as many quality builds as possible before introducing this subreddit. You will find its packed with SC2 audio builds along with a few select builds from Liquipedia as those are the two best sources for build orders (that I know of). I'm sure once we get a more active community and a proper group of knowledgeable moderators(As the sole mod, I'm neither a group nor knowledgeable) the quality and quantity of the the builds on this subreddit will increase.

Notice a build missing from the subreddit? make a post! Got a replay of yourself performing a build? feel free to post it. Got a problem with holding a 1 rax FE vs 4gate? Feel free to ask questions or open a discussion.

We need moderators

If the idea of this subreddit interests you, and you would be willing to help moderate the subreddit, send me a PM. Having a wide knowledge of SC2 strategy, and prior subreddit moderating experience would be preferred.
