Not sure if I'm late, WoL for $20 on Amazon:
http://www.amazon.com/StarCraft-II-Wings-Liberty-PC/dp/B000ZKA0J6
HotS is also $20 on u.s. amazon, with 2 dollars tax ($5 shipping, but can qualify for free shipping)
You can qualify for free shipping on orders of $35 or more, which can be done by buying both HotS and WoL totaling around 40 dollars plus tax
Consider playing SC2 for free through "spawning" (partying up with friends who already have HotS) [Downsides: No 1v1, terran-only, and miss out on campaign]
I don't recommend waiting for HotS on Microsoft Store which is on sale for $5, but currently out of stock. Microsoft Store might take a really long time to restock so I wouldn't bet on it, but just in case:
http://www.microsoftstore.com/store?Action=pdp&amp;ClickID=dboyztckyo0to2wkb02ostkwcwhwkwmrzhhx&amp;Locale=en_US&amp;SiteID=msusa&amp;Starcraft-II-Heart-of-the-Swarm-PC-Game=&amp;productID=260620400
A former pro player, Liquid Jinro, made a blog post saying SC2 has the best it has ever been, I hope you have fun with SC2!
Have you heard of deliberate practice? I'm terrible at explaining things, but luckily other people have made much better guides on deliberate practice, explaining it and teaching you how to apply it to anything. I highly suggest reading peak. Its a fantastic book that seriously helped me with learning any skill.
There is a great reddit post explaining deliberate practice, and showing how to apply it in starcraft 2. There is also an awesome video Artosis made that helps a lot. Its about SC remastered, but you can easily apply it in SC2
If you are serious about getting better at Starcraft I highly recommend learning about deliberate practice!
TL forum post: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=278995
>The long-awaited expansion pack for StarCraft II is now available to pre-order. Heart of the Swarm continues the epic saga as something happens to Kerrigan and Jim Raynor acts emo about it (I think).
>
>If you'd like to help support TL, you can order Heart of the Swarm through our Amazon referral link. Assuming this is the same as Wings of Liberty, you will receive the game the same day it is released for digital download (last time it was shipped early to ensure it arrives on time - don't worry!) and TL will receive a small commission which will be used to help keep the site running.
>
>Note: This is for the physical copy of the game only. That means that you will have to wait until the game is delivered to you by mail (usually the same day as it's released). Similar to a digital purchase, you will be able to use the CD Key to download the game from Bnet or install from the DVD if you wish. If you are willing to wait a few hours for the mail to arrive, we'd really appreciate the referral.
edit: added amazon referral link to quote
If your son is interested in taking this as far as possible, I would HIGHLY recommend reading this book: https://www.amazon.ca/Peak-How-Master-Almost-Anything/dp/0670068764
I'm almost done it myself and am applying a quantifiable deliberate practice training approach to improvement. I'd be happy to talk about some drills I'm using and planning to use in the near future, the spreadsheets I'm using to track my progress as well as other aspects of how to apply the lessons in Peak to sc2, something I've given a lot of thought to.
In either case, I wish you and your son GL and hope you both HF!
Logitech G-400
Razer Deathadder
Steelseries Sensei
All of these are excellent mice, which one you want really comes down to personal preference. I like the deathadder, but I know other people who are more comfortable with the logitech design.
You also might want to take into consider a nice mouse surface if you don't already have one. I can tell you that the steelseries 9HD is pretty awesome if you're into hard pads.
just take the key off? or can you not do that on laptops?
for a keyboard
Absolutely for the win, its the keyboard that i have. Its the best priced mechanical you can get and its the sexiest thing in the world, ive loved in the moment it came in the mail, i treat it like my child.
Only problem with it is the height isnt adjustable though not a major problem because its almost perfect height, also the bottem is thick so it stands up an extra inch or so, i would suggest getting a memory foam wrist rest
I use Plantronics Gamecom 367, they're nothing fancy, but they get the job done. I've worn them for hours at a time with no real discomfort, the sound is quite clear and the mic pick up is really surprisingly good. And they're a whopping $25 on amazon.
Edit: I've had them for over a year now. However, I don't know that they're super sturdy, a friend of my mine managed to crack to upper part, but he just taped them up and they're fine.
I'll copypaste my response from a previous thread asking the same question, feel free to visit that thread to check out my justification for this board being the best.
stay far away from every typical "gaming" brand. They all suck incredibly much.
Buy a keyboard like this for 40 $. The layout is the optimal one for starcraft II since it puts f-row closer to your number-row allowing you to hit more camera hotkeys, while cutting away the numpad and some of the nav-cluster reducing the keyboards size allowing for more comfortable mouse control.
https://www.amazon.com/DREVO-Backlit-Mechanical-Keyboard-Switch/dp/B01K1XDTJY
In regards to quality, the board is decent. I own multiple boards that have cost me 200 $ +, and the quality between those boards and 40 $ boards is fairly small. In regards to switches, the optimal switch is the one with the lowest actuation force. 45 g and below is best, as it allows you to spam for longer periods without your hands getting tired. In regards to tactility etc, it's all personal preference when it comes to RTS. However linear switches are by far the best for FPS'es, so if the keyboard is meant for gaming go with MX reds.
If you're looking for lore with cool graphics, the best source is the StarCraft Field Manual, an in-universe lorebook which goes through the tech and history of the units and the sector:
https://www.amazon.com/StarCraft-II-Manual-Rick-Barba/dp/1608874508
There sadly is no Khalani glossary, supposedly Blizzard has one but nobody's ever seen it. I'd love it as much as you.
There's plenty of amazing text books if you're looking for hard novels, my recommended starting points are I, Mengsk, StarCraft: Ghost: Nova, and Heaven's Devils. But most of the books fill in gaps in the universe, so you can start most places and be fine.
For visual stuff, Frontline is a mixed bag but has some great art (and some not so great art), but its got a massive diversity when it comes to content. The current Dark Horse run is also really solid (Scavengers, Soldiers, in a few weeks Survivors).
Yeah I just wear this wrist brace and they work really well. After I get in a good gaming session I just put these on for a few hours and it actually feels pretty good. I recommend everyone get these and I am surprised it wasn't common knowledge.
Thanks for the recommendation, it sounds like an interesting book so I'll likely pick it up. Allow me to make a recommendation of my own: The Art of Learning by Josh Waitzkin.
Young chess master becomes disillusioned and turns to Tai Chi, which leads him into transferring his competitive spirit into Tai Chi push hands, where he becomes the world champion. Eventually he switches again, this time over to Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. Along the way he learns a lot about the nature of performance and how to learn efficiently to a master level in different disciplines.
You can get it slightly cheaper on amazon.com (after shipping). It's 61.99 on amazon (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003ZJ1VD8) and if you want to get it a bit faster, you can sign up for the free trial of amazon prime (30 days) and get free 2 day shipping.
Just be sure to cancel the amazon prime membership within the month if you don't want to pay the yearly fee to have free 2 day shipping.
I use a RazerDeathadder, purchased from Amazon for $46 (free shipping!). I would highly, highly recommend it. It's ridiculously accurate and customizable, very comfortable. Easily the best mouse I've ever used: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002Q4U5DK/ref=oss_product
Many pro players in Korea keep heating pads to warm their hands, so hot hands would not be a bad idea. Think about getting a reusable one that you can boil and snap to activate and not waste so much of those disposable ones. I don't really know what they're made out of.
I don't know how good these specific ones are, but they're 5 bucks: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001I0NUJY/ref=pd_lpo_k2_dp_sr_1?pf_rd_p=486539851&amp;pf_rd_s=lpo-top-stripe-1&amp;pf_rd_t=201&amp;pf_rd_i=B000F3Q524&amp;pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&amp;pf_rd_r=15TMP8D8G0EMSX7696HJ
Keep a few on hand so you don't have to reboil every hour. You can also find reusable dry ones similar to hot hands. MakaPrime left his at the interview desk after either his round of 64 or 32 GSL3 interview. Maka is also often seen wearing a hoodie with another zipper-front hoodie draped over his shoulders while in his booth. I've heard he likes to play in the cold (booths are climate controlled, and apparently he cranks the temp way down).
I bought them something like 3 years ago, so I'll never find the exact ones. But /u/Specifiallyprolific posted these which are pretty close. Mine are left and right hand friendly.
I bought a filco ninja last week ( http://www.amazon.com/Filco-Majestouch-2-Tenkeyless-FKBN87M-EFB2/dp/B004ZJPSGI/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1312137313&amp;sr=8-2 ) and it's pretty pretty awesome. It is my first mechanical keyboard (after using my old keyboard for 10 years) so I don't have much knowledge on how it "feels" in comparison.
I recently bought a razer blackwidow and am love with it. It's a definite improvement over my old G11 for typing and gaming. It's probably one of my favorite pc-related purchases. The only downside is you can barely talk over the thing.
Any of these three headsets are great choices imo
The G35 certainly looks good from its Amazon reviews, but is the most expensive of the set.
If you're somewhat interested in the Corsair headset, I can give you my impression of the product.
I didn't have to go through any importing luckily. Keyboard Company sends some of their stock of the new Filcos to Amazon.com for United States buyers. Used my Amazon Prime to get overnight shipping for only $4!
Although I did import a completely blank set of keycaps for it. I've been eagerly waiting for them to arrive.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B001NTFATI?pc_redir=1404189027&amp;robot_redir=1
Found this, amazon seems to have some limited stock left but quite pricey.
You could try the Logitech g300, I've used this one a bit but it has too many buttons for my liking. Might be a positive for you though.
what prize range are we talking? this is a VERY sexy mouse and doesn't cost too much.
If you're looking for a small, compact, mechanical, minimal, and clean keyboard, then this is for you: Filco Ninja Majestouch Tenkeyless Black
It is what I have and comes with brown switches. It's got a nice matte finish so it won't pick up prints like the das keyboards. In addition, because it's tenkeyless, it doesn't have the num pad so your mouse is closer to your keyboard. Also, it has no macro keys to distract your fingers like the Razer BlackWidow. Just what you're looking for in your description. Might I add, Filcos are built like a rock.
I use and love this one. Light and comfortable. I didn't want anything too fancy http://www.amazon.com/Razer-Deathadder-Precision-Infrared-RZ01-00151400-R3/dp/B002Q4U5DK/ref=sr_1_1?s=electronics&amp;ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1320799005&amp;sr=1-1

Cheapest for HotS:

Or for 14p more if you prefer Amazon:

I've used Simply Games loads though and never had any problems. Really fast free delivery too
No one seems to be selling WoL. Amazon cheapest it looks like:

it's not $40, but the G9X Logitech is pretty reasonably priced for being such a beast. amazon has it at $63 http://www.amazon.com/Logitech-Programmable-Laser-Gaming-Precision/dp/B001NTFATI
This is true in many disciplines. Josh Waitzkin also talked about this in his book the art of learning. In both his chess carreer as his tai chi carreer, the time off he took, was very much a key factor in his success. Being able to empty your mind, and balance out your head. While competitors where pushed hard by their parents, his dad took him fishing out in the sea the week before a tournament, so he would feel refreshed and focussed when he returned.
A must read for everyone trying to master a skills, wether it is sc2, chess, martial arts, or anything else. (was also recommended by day9)
http://www.amazon.com/The-Art-Learning-Journey-Performance/dp/0743277465
Any mid-range Logitech gaming mouse would work great. I use the Logitech G400, which is $37.89 on Amazon. It has a very normal, rounded shape, it's medium-sized, light, multiple dpi settings up to 3600, and has 8 programmable buttons.
I really like my Logitech G9x. Easy to customize and comes with two mouse grips.
http://www.amazon.com/dp/B001NTFATI
review: http://www.techradar.com/news/gaming/hands-on-logitech-g9x-gaming-mouse-review-498350
I know that some people have had the book for a while now, but I wanted to let people know that amazon is fulfilling orders.
If you are interested in the book get it here.
Digital downloads are always more expensive. However if you buy the cd then download the game with the key, its the same thing, you don't need to have the disk to play.
http://www.amazon.com/Starcraft-II-Wings-Liberty-Pc/dp/B000ZKA0J6/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1332966636&amp;sr=8-1
I got my copy at amazon for like $45 this summer.
If you have doubts, just play with a friend and he can spawn you a copy to do team games with you. You'll have access to HotS, but only limited to the terran race. Once you ungroup with your friend you will lose HotS access.
I'd say its worth it, its only ~$30 on Amazon http://www.amazon.com/StarCraft-II-Heart-Swarm-Expansion-Pc/dp/B002I0KP4G/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1377636219&amp;sr=8-1&amp;keywords=heart+of+the+swarm
If you have money to burn, I guess.
At least for me, keyboards with MX Black switches don't quite feel right, and you don't get the nice click that you get with Browns or Blacks. Since you clearly have money, I'd recommend getting a Filco Majestouch; they are the very best keyboards you can buy that aren't Topre (and under $200): http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004Z0XR2O/ref=pd_lpo_k2_dp_sr_1?pf_rd_p=486539851&amp;pf_rd_s=lpo-top-stripe-1&amp;pf_rd_t=201&amp;pf_rd_i=B001BR4NLI&amp;pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&amp;pf_rd_r=07BN8JZHH1J2WZW3R01G
Headset advice is correct; gaming headsets arent the best. Best to go with headsets meant for audio, like Sennheiser or something else. I use a crappy one myself, so I can't offer you solid advice.
Or you can buy it on Amazon and add to r/SC's prize pools.
Amazon Canada
Amazon UK
Almost all mechanical switches have an actuation distance of 2mm and a bottom-out distance of 4mm. The lowest actuation force types commonly found in mechanical keyboards are those with Cherry MX Brown switches. I use a filco majestrouch tenkeyless and I'm extremely happy with it. Other popular brown-switch keyboards include the leopold tenkeyless (slightly cheaper) and das "silent" models (also highly recommended). One quick point is that brown-switches are not truly silent. They don't have a built in click like blue-switches, but they still make noise when they key is bottomed out or generally tapped quickly.
Target has it around $52
Amazon has some decent deals and retails at $50:Amazon
Finding it under $50 is still pretty tough at the moment and will most likely have to be from a person selling their own copy.
HotS is $10 too, but looks like it's out of stock until the 7th.http://www.amazon.com/StarCraft-II-Heart-Swarm-Expansion-Pc/dp/B002I0KP4G/Edit: Not any more...
Just FYI, you can usually get a copy for $30-$40 on Amazon.
http://www.amazon.com/Starcraft-II-Wings-Liberty-Pc/dp/B000ZKA0J6/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1335541302&amp;sr=8-1

Plantronics Gamecom headset: http://www.amazon.com/Plantronics-GameCom-Closed-Ear-Gaming-Headset/dp/B001E45XT4
Cheap+good. :) There's some variants on the shape of the ear pads, so search around a bit.
It is only £12.85 and £10.00 for Hots

I doubt it gets a lot cheaper.
maybe you can safe a bid by buying keys somewhere like: http://www.planetkey.de/starcraft-ii-key-kaufen-und-download.html (german)
If you can't figure out how to buy it and gift it digitally, you can always do it the old fashioned way (it's $10 off on amazon).
Sure.

What is your budget? A mouse pad isn't nearly as important, and you can probably use the one you have now. The Razer DeathAdder is $42 on Amazon. Is that still too much?
A lot of others suggest the Logitech g400, which is around $36 on Amazon.

45$ for both and both really solid...will serve you well for a long time.
You can buy one here: http://www.amazon.com/SteelSeries-6Gv2-Mechanical-Gaming-Keyboard/dp/B0038X3ZVM/ref=sr_1_1?s=electronics&amp;ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1312920159&amp;sr=1-1
I payed an extra $20 and got it in two days. For what is worth, I really like this keyboard, but it is the only mechanical keyboard I know...
The cost is justified by the expensive mechanical switches in the style of IBM's old Model M. Using mechanical switches instead of rubber domes gives a completely different tactile response, for which keyboard fanatics are willing to pay a premium. The more reasonably priced mechanical keyboards start at around $100.
In the U.S. the cheapest I can find it for is $50:
Amazon.com
Newegg.com
You may want to try google shopping to see if it is sold cheaper somewhere locally?
Amazon?

I use the 6gv2.. Amazing keyboard, but I need some Cherry Blues because I'm going back to college and will be typing a lot. Meh, who knows. But ya, $99 everywhere it seems.
And I can still get it on amazon for £2 cheaper.

Some other site's affiliate link. &#3232;_&#3232;
Why don't you give back to Reddit instead and have the site make a bit o' money instead.

I'd go with the Blackwidow. Since you're from Canada, there's a sale on BlackWidow on amazon.ca for only $50. I just ordered one for myself :D

Logitech G400
this is the mouse i use, http://www.amazon.com/Logitech-Optical-Gaming-High-Precision-910-002277/dp/B0055QZ216/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1343236182&amp;sr=8-4&amp;keywords=gaming+mouse . i am not sure if that's the type of grip you want but, this mouse when you download the logitech drivers you change the dpi to anything between 0-3600. This mouse also has 5 extra butttons (besides the 3 standard) for your needs, and is also very in expensive.
No, it's just using the pre-order item page on Amazon.

Sure.. You guys here didn't know that already?

Note, there's no release date that I know of, but this is $40 and guaranteed not to cost more (though if the price goes down you get that price too).
I too was extremely disappointed with the Razer Deathadder's soft mushy clicking coming from the legendary Logitech MX518 that lasted me at 6 years (unlike my shitty deathadder of 1 year).
If you like the Deathadders weight and size, then look into the MX518, or the newer versions of it such as the G400s. Ihaven't tried the g400S, but if it's clicking feel is anything like it's predecessors then it should be good.

You're severely overpricing there, buddy.
