Wow, the amount of people ripping on this guy is just depressing.
He might not be Julyzerg but hes pretty fucking skilled.

And for those bringing the combat-ex comparison, he plays P, and he dosent only cheese, just a large portion of his games and plays very abusive, you cant exactly cheese you're way into the top 200as Z.

On topic, thanks for the vids, starting playing a little sc2 again so will definitely watch them.

Watched the game on Taldarim Altar vs Machine.

I wish I would of saw this a couple days ago, I opened 15 hatch into roaches on taldarim like machine did and got raped twice in a row by speedlings. Very helpful casts!

@krayze, i skip the openings because, i open standard 14gas 14 pool, sending the scout out at 10 11 or 12 its basically the same thing every game (if you wanna be sure some of my first vids i believe start from the very beginning) and unfortunately for you i dont open hatch first just because of how open it leaves zerg to being abused. Theres alot less you need to deal with going pool first because pulling drones in hatch first really makes each opening unique depending on the exact # of drones you pull, how many you lose, and what kind of aggression / duration of said aggression your opponent brings.

I watched some of your videos. I have to say I like your style. You are very conservative! It seems like lots of zergs take too many risks and you aren't afraid to just make units if needed instead of droning like crazy.
Thanks. I like to play.

I really like these style of commentary. It's too bad psy doesn't seem to do it anymore. sub'd.

I've seen his name before I think he played on Mr.Bitter's show a few times (not as instructor). He's much better than me which is all I care for really. ^^

Don't understand the hate and question of credibility. You guys want his portfolio? He posts his own replay packs and is consistently (I mean it, consistently) in the top 200 of the ladder. He plays vs and beats well known players, and is quite knowledgeable (enough to where we have near hour long strategy and theory discussions)

Albeit he is a clan mate of mine, i'm speaking as unbiased as I can - he's a good player, and one of our crutches for clan wars (Mr all-kill).

I like the way you laid out your game vs geNo. Very insightful for people learning Zerg a bit more and definitely helpful to me for understanding drone timings.

One thing I did notice is that the Terran you played against was fairly weak in terms of harassment, do you typically have more problems keeping everything in order against a harass heavy build like mass marine drops or hellion/banshee play?
After all this time, I still haven't figured out the correlation between sexual orientation and beating an unprepared opponent. Are homosexuals the next koreans? Many players seem to think it's an unfair advantage. - pandaburn

Haters gonna hate...

I don't know why everyone feels the need to rip on someone who's trying to help the community. If you ask me, people are just trying to convince themselves that they have some sort of credibility.

Keep it up thanks for the streams.

Pritty sure he's sponsored


There are probably only <40 players who make a decent living off of (playing) SC2. Being sponsored doesn't mean you are a pro. I had sponsorships for downhill skiing when I was 16... Calling yourself a pro when you don't actually make a living off of SC is presumptuous end of story. If the general starcraft audience hasn't heard of you, and you aren't winning top tournaments and making a decent amount of cash (enough to live off of), you aren't pro, you are amateur.

What pisses people off is when someone who doesn't make a living playing SC2 and most people haven't heard of calls themselves a pro. Nobody is questioning his contribution to the community.
