Sup.
So I'm gonna be really bored over winter break, would like to pick up some dedicated students (2-4) to train and really make the most of their break. Mostly will be over the next two weeks but I will still be willing to help whenever I'm online after that. Students can be any level below top 200 level really, only requirements are that you can use the TL teamspeak (no mic required, but you may want one), a north american bnet account, and that you will be VERY active over the next two weeks. I will help you a lot but I will also expect you to play a lot on your own - I will try to improve your play over a fairly short period of time. I will play games with you, watch replays, give you access to my practice partners and replays etc. I'm a top 100 NA terran, contracted member of VT Gaming, and was B- in broodwar. (I am 15 years old, but that honestly says nothing about my skill, game knowledge, or coaching ability). Post or pm if interested, I will respond tonight. There will probably be quite a few people interested, please do not message me unless you KNOW you will be committed and want to do this. Of course you can leave any other questions or comments here as well.
thanks! I hope this goes well haha.
edit: TL veterans will probably get priority for coaching, but I doubt there are many that would be interested.
ed2: No imbalance or cheese whiners please. Every loss is your own fault.

Chance of doing this for BW?
|
I could help in BW but it's unlikely I'd just be online.
|
Oh hi pokebunny :D
Do you want to coach me??
|
Sure, I suppose, if you meet said requirements.
Maybe I should've posted this in SC2 General.
|
Can u coach me? i'm on winter break too :O i'm a plat terran right now
|
I'd rather just practice with you, I'm not really looking for in-depth coaching, I play maybe an hour or two every day but I don't think i'm "super active".. Nor do I really want to devote all my time to being coached. Buut, if you want to play a few games and give some tips or whatever, I would be down.
I'm ~2400 diamond, so pretty far from top 100, but not a total noob (or maybe that is a total noob, idk)
|
Fine, sure. 
PMs will be sent out tonight to those chosen.
|
I don't want coaching I just want someone who will play a lot of games with me in BW  lol.

What time window is good for you?

While I'm on break pretty much morning to midnight lol (EST, maybe a bit later). Schedule will vary a little if we do family things but I'll be quite free.

After I played that one game vs you Pokebunny, I think I deserve all the coaching I can get playing like that! You'll have a challenge on your hands if you choose to accept it.
Kiwikaki.614
Protoss
650 diamond (1300 bonus pool left over)
800+ custom 1v1s
Lots of free time and motivation to get better
Mature (I think)
Please tell me if I qualify, as it would be awesome if I could get lessons from the one and only, and I have vent, TS shouldn't be hard to get if I need it either. Thanks.

Wow I'm so ridiculously jealous that being so much younger then me you could still wipe the floor with me all day
I'd definitely have loved some coaching from a top 100 player, I play like 6+ hours a day so im active, unfortunately I'm on EU :C
sigh...

Free coaching from Pokebunny?! :O
I'm no TL veteran by any means, but I've been following you since your first grudgematch against arb and even saw you play a few games against Flabulous/MrBitter the other day. You are an amazing player. I would willingly ditch my family, girlfriend and friends for the chance to get coached by you. Anyways...
Name/CC: SliveredSkin.784
Race: Zerg
Rank: Gold 40
I have not played a lot of games on the ladder, but I play every day against my friends and practice partners from university. I'm not working during Christmas break, so I can pretty much play nonstop (save Christmas).
Thanks for being so generous with your time towards us lesser players!!

Name: Tortellini.226
Race: Zerg
Rank: Diamond, 1950-2000.
Say hi to VT Gaming for me, I hope they're doing well (from the looks of it, they're making great progress!). I don't know if they are on good grounds with me, but I have no issues with them (just some disagreements about some aspects, but that's under the bridge as far as I know).
In any case, have a mic, have TeamSpeak (though figuring it out is a bit difficult for me, so used to Ventrilo) and I'm even free on Christmas and New Year's.
I can even set up a stream for games and such for you if you want these sessions in recording or for your own personal logs (I'd have install it and all that).
Cheers.
P.S: Congrats to Blur!

I'd love some coaching from my old coach ^^
Sadistx.991

Diamond 2000
My goal is eventual top200 next year and my biggest problem is TvP lategame and really safe TvT openers.

I'd love to be coached by you pokebunny! 
Name: Yorku.706
Race: Protoss
Rank: Diamond ~2000
I've played a lot and improved lately, but I'm really looking for a kick in the butt that will help me out a bit more since I've been struggling a bit lately. (I only recently made it to diamond...)
Thanks pokebunny, it's awfully nice of you to donate so much time to all of us on TL! I have TeamSpeak and all that, there shouldn't be any technical issues there. If only all good players could offer free coaching like you are! ^^
Thanks again! :D

IMO you are already better than pokebunny (no offense intended, of course, but this guy is good!), why are you trying to take free lessons that could actually go to deserving players? That doesn't really sound mature to me.

All players can improve from any and all players.
"Deserving" is a jugdment I don't think you are qualified to make.

I don't know if you think that's the actual Kiwikaki, but it's not.....

My assumption is that he didn't read the entire description, just the name lololol

I would be interested
Legato #726
I have nothing to do until mid January
|
Shit, so many people..; I don't know what to do. ;_;
List:
Paramo (first one to message me)
RyuChus
me_viet (already a decent player and has other solid practice partners, and away for the first few days)
happyft (signed up to TL yesterday - this does NOT mean I don't like you / I'm being elitist - I just have no other criteria )
LeafMeAlone (no info + no tl cred)
Skillz_Man (seems pretty cool and signed up before sc2 beta!)
Slivered Skin (has been following me! bonus pts)
Torte de Lini (zergs that are already okay are kinda hard for me to coach cuz its such a vague race)
Sadistx (old broodwar student and longtime tler)
Yorku
Legat0 (no real reason just shrug lol)
omgCRAZY
Maybes:
EtherealDeath?
SixSongs?
Steelflight-Rx?
Wtf to do? :|
Okay, bolds are now confirmed, strikethrough is no-go (sorry! seriously, i had to make up reasons to exclude some people. i can't help everyone!) Everyone else I'm still deciding.
OKAY DONE: Bolds have first priority, italics second, strikethroughs third. That's all I have to say.
ANYONE is free to join my TS channel or msg me on bnet. I do not guarantee an instant response on bnet.
|
You could choose randomly or based on some other criteria (how well you know them, post count, how fast they reply to your PM, how many "a" 's are in their name). If you're running the show, you make the call.
Guess you won't be playing HoN 2.0 at all.
|
If anyone wants help right now I'm on TL TS + Bnet, go to the very bottom of the TS channel list.
|
I would mind getting a bit of help, but I don't have the time to dedicate right now because of work. ]:
So if you have a few evenings free(I'm in PST time), I wouldn't mind ~ Send me a message ;3
I'm bad. ~_~
But yeah. If not, have fun with those you're helping. ^___^ ♥ ! And GL To them~!!
|
Anyone (even if I don't choose you) can feel free to msg me on bnet or go on TS with questions/replays/etc.
|
I would like a chance to be coached. I have a lot of free time and plan to be active. Having a coach/practice partners would also be a nice motivator to click that 'find game' button more often.
I am a low (like really low) diamond. I am willing to take criticisms and learn. I feel like I know more about the game than I can actually execute on the fly at the moment, my mechanics are pretty raw.
Let me know if I make the cut. Looking forward to it.
Grin.913 I play protoss
|
TBH, I just want to know how a better player would handle a specific TvP situation that is totally fucking me over. And I'd like some advice for the real late-game T play, like when you have anything in the tech tree at your disposal, what unit compositions are good and how should i play them. That'd be about it.
I'm currently 1700 ish with around 600 pts of bonus pool leftover.
