So I got a lesson with iNcontroL to work on my PvP, which was terrible at the time, and recorded it so I could watch it over a couple times and make sure everything sunk in. Given how helpful it was, I thought I might as well make it public.

Unfortunately, Procaster decided to explode about 40 minutes in so some of the more interesting stuff got cut out, but regardless, here it is:

http://www.livestream.com/kznlol/video?clipId=pla_991812d8-dc88-4128-8b2c-c5c68916002f

I'm planning on getting more lessons with him after my exams are over, and I'll update this when I do.

[edit] Fair warning, my keyboard is loud as all fuck and may cause significant rage if you watch the whole thing in one sitting.

[edit2] Some friends I showed it to have said it starts to lag about when I start the Metalopolis game, but only the video lags. Others haven't noticed anything, so I don't really know what to say if it does lag for you >.>

I am pleased when people make it available for others. I'd do it for every session if I had the capability.

this is great, if SC2 ran on linux i would find this to be more than just interesting but great advertisement and something to save a bit of money to see how i can clean up my play moreso to learn how to better improve myself than simply "do this, that, the other thing" but this is great insight on how the game is being played at the moment and pumps me up to want a copy of windows again to play thank you for sharing

:D I might hit you up later, although I want to play some more toss before. I think I want to make toss my main, after tons of flat out laddering as random.

Yeah, my thought. If I was going to have anyone it would be incontrol.

Yeah I can agree with him being a good teacher. I had some coaching from him in person a few months ago, and it helped a TON. I might have to go back and get some lessons again soon.

I'm not entirely sure on precisely where it cuts off, but the stuff that stuck with me:

2nd Robo goes down timed pretty much to start producing as soon as your expo is mining.
Col production has pretty much absolute priority over everything else - I'm fairly sure I made about 10% use of my warpgates during the early phases of my 2robo production.
Motherships are actually good if the game goes long enough.

Thats all I can remember now though

Thankfully in their latest podcast incontrol said they'd be releasing more coaching vods like this.

Wow. I was totally against spending money on coaching before I saw this, but that was quality above and beyond what I expected.

I hope iNcontroL is planning to use more of these as advertisements, because that was great.

$35

I believe he offers discounts for bulk purchases, but don't quote me on that.

Thank you so much! My PvP has really been lacking, and Incontrol is my go-to toss when I'm at a loss for what to do (He saved my PvZ with several coaching VODs of PvZ). Thanks for the post!
