I'd like to find 3 players, gold league or lower, to help learn matchups and improve their play. I'm a mid-diamond protoss player, but I should be able to help out lower level terran and zerg players as well. Respond here with your US server nick and character code. I'm Loophole.517. I'll update this blog with my students progress. The goal is to get you guys up to plat or diamond.

lol, Faust is indeed one of my past students. What was that Faust, 6 years ago? I'm afraid you aren't worthy to showmatch me aztrorisk, even though your username is great. I will allow you to showmatch faust instead, so that you all may see the results of my past teaching.

I'll add you Stretsful.

Absolutely. You're the third VanderLuust. Everyone else will need to chill until I've worked with these three.

Barely-gold terran, Prometheus.183. Looking to improve my skills as well as learn effective builds and timing attacks against different matchups. Thanks in advance!
