Hi every1, i recently started casting my ladder/league/tournament matches and posting them on youtube. And i recently had an idea for a series of casts done through the eyes of JEcho.

What does this mean?

I'll be casting the games from just my perspective, so you can all get inside my head and see what i was doing, what i was thinking, and why i responded the way i did. I feel this will give Zerg players valuable insight into responding to many builds we all come across, such as: 2 rax, reactor hellion, 4 gate, 3 gate expand, voidray play, dts, ling bane wars, 1 base roach, 1 base muta, hatch first, and many others.

So come check me out on youtube

http://www.youtube.com/user/LagTTJEcho

comments/feedback/subscriptions are appreciated, if you have any further questions or want me to cast one of your games msg me here or on Bnet NA at LagTTJEcho.955



SPECIAL NOTE FOR PEOPLE BEING ANAL ABOUT THE TITLE
1. Its a question, nowhere does it say im a pro zerg
2. Last time i checked, you didn't have to for example be a pro basketball player, in order to TEACH pro basketball players

You should probably introduce yourself a bit more. I have no idea who you are, how good you are, and thus not how capable you are of learning me anything. I can't tell for sure if the information you come up with is either wrong, fake, or actually smart. (doubly so because I don't play zerg).

So basically you will be like every other first person streamer? I'm confused, what about this is different.

@ excludos, are you top 200? probably not, i cant use points as a reference since the reset but im still top 200 and again... i believe your not.

@ merciless idont believe people who stream are constantly talking explaining why they are doing what they are doing. Please point me in the direction of these people

I'm just as skeptical of new casters as the rest of you, but I watched a couple and it's really informative stuff. Like he's saying, very few players cast their own games and talk about their thought-processes.

Because high level Zerg play is so dependent on interpreting limited information, having a decent player talk about what it means when he sees his opponent doing X Y and Z is obviously really helpful.

Anyhow, good luck building up an audience JEcho, there's such an extreme over saturation of SC2 content right now. I, for one, really like what you have here.

Very argumentive and defensive to just some simple questions. Just becuase your top 200 doesn't make you a pro. What tournaments have you won if any , for all we know you cheesed your way to your current status , probably not but who knows. Kinda of like American masters are not equal to masters on Sk server.

your right rocketboy sorry for being so offended, what bothers me is asking a question that really cant be answered, how am i supposed to explain if you'll learn anything or not.

Want a simple solution?

Watch one, if you like it and learn, you answered your own question, if not then you don't have to watch anymore.

And btw, goodluck cheesing your way to top200, theres a reason high level players don't cheese every game, because 90% of the time it fails, + i play zerg... what do you think im doing 6/8/10 pooling every high level player i face... erm ya thats right they dont know how to stop 6 pools

Thanks for the videos JEcho. I was really a big fan of Psy casting his own games, but obviously hes not active anymore.

Hey JEcho, I checked out a couple of your ZvT's because I just don't win vs Terran anymore. I found them unhelpful because you open up with gas pool, or some 2 drone rush which I don't want to do. I like 15 hatch, 15 pool, 17 gas, 17 overlord like Idra and many others do ZvT.

And the game against LZGamer, you started the replay after your buildings were done. I realize your trying to save time which is great, but the things I want to know are: what food did you send your scout, when you put down gas, pool. That way I can mirror your build and see how it feels, without the exact food counts, I wouldn't feel confident about trying it.

GL with your youtube vids!!

Did you see if you can be part of SC2Casts? I watch these vods on my iPhone often with their application.

Pro tip: Don't call yourself pro based on ladder, especially if you aren't even top 50.
