@LogiKalFail

LS has been in korea for so long, besides going to get donuts once in a while the kid is on the internet/computer all day just trying to get better at SC2, to be the best. You're obviously a troll account so its pointless to continue talking about it.

Pretty sure idra would get cheesed out of some NA Koth's too. Bad players have better chances of beating a good player than some other good players do. Well because SC2 is still kind of shit atm.

Also, team light has a gaming house so I'd bet money binski sits near KR and they probably just both talked shit IRL on you idiot. ahahahhah

Keep up the vlogs please nick. The stuff you said in the last one just makes me feel so happy. Happy that I actually don't play anymore, because doing all of those little things would just piss me off so bad because I probably could never do them all consistently. Good luck.

Sorry but why would I care they talked shit about me IRL? not something I can exactly stop anyone from doing.

he didn't get cheesed from KOTH, he lost to minigun and no gg'd
SC2 is shit - what a hilarious comment, why does he dedicate his life to it then? I love this moronic notion that less skill players are winning, the skilled players if they are really skilled need to adapt. Ofcourse "semi-pro's" which LS and light are will keep complaining to make their time expended into this game feel justified.

So from your comments in this thread it's evident you play this game at a relatively low level and your just here to troll and flame LS as opposed to providing real thought or insight into why you think his play is bad or why you think his theories are wrong. Instead of sitting here insulting multiple people far more skilled and accomplished in this game then you are maybe your time would be better spent getting your skill up or learning to argue better or something...

Hey Lastshadow, in one of your vBlogs you mentioned that it is very important they way you use your keyboard hand, in the most ergonomic and efficient way. Could you do video about how to position the hand on the keyboard and how to move it to click certation things (for exemple, control+number or which fingers to use when clicking the F keys etc...) thank you man:D Gl!

Hey LS,

thanks a lot for the enlightening vlogs! I've really enjoyed watching them so far and I can't wait for the PvT analysis!

I've got a few protoss related questions for the upcoming PvT vlog (I'm currently in NA master league)--

1) In PvT, I've been practicing a 1 gate expand into a blink-stalker midgame with at least 1 forge for upgrades and immortals/sentries for defense (the same build Genius did vs sC in game 1 of the ro32). Perhaps you could do a "walkthrough" of this style from the protoss perspective? I really like the blink stalker army in PvT midgame but there are a lot of scenarios where I'm not entirely sure if I'm moving my army around the map in the best way possible. For instance, if he moves out of his base for some kind of MMM timing is it ever a good idea to blink into his main and force him into a base-trade mentality? If it is okay, then what buildings should I kill immediately and when should I retreat? Is there a scenario where I can punish a greedy terran by bringing my immortals+sentries+zealots into the fight as well? Also, what sort of reads can/should I be making of the terran in the midgame (for example, rax/addon count, bunker count, starport timing) and how should my tech decisions reflect these reads? I have some general ideas as to what to transition into based on what I see, but usually it feels kind of free-form ESPECIALLY when it comes to getting 1 forge vs double forge and the timing of my third. So if you could touch on some of the concrete timings I should be aware of, that would be awesome

2) I recently started using the f-keys (f1-f4) and while I don't really have a problem remembering to set/use them, I was kind of curious as to what most pros actually set them to. Currently, I have it so my mouse 4 button is set to my main base, f1 is my ramp or natural choke (if i'm fast expanding), f2 is a watchtower or the middle of the map, f3 is the enemy choke. I'm starting to think it might just be better to have f1-f3 be set to my 2nd-4th bases and f4 to a watchtower because currently I find myself clicking on the minimap/dragging the screen a lot in the lategame when I'm managing 3 or more bases. I know it's not a huge issue, but I'm interested to hear what you think is the optimal setup for a protoss player.

LS,

Have you ever played around with going Blue Flame Hellions? Personally at my skill level, Mid masters NA (pretty terrible still I know) I have trouble with charge lots. I think they're just really fucking strong. I know it might not be cost effective going Marauder - Hellion - Viking because that's 3 different groups of upgrades you need for those units. However I've found BFH's effective vs large chunks of Chargelots because it just drives me nuts having to "kyte" backwards across map vs the Chargelots. In addition the medics get caught inbetween both armies and Stalkers auto the medivacs and before I know it I'm fucked.

I know you've discussed in your 3 part series of TvP that the T should never lose that main battle. However you need to have strong unit control to pull off a lot of what you described. Is there anything else you can suggest for non-pro players besides the standard Bio + Vikings? The reason I've said BFH's is because I've noticed that once all their Zealots are gone their army is much weaker. It something I'm still playing around with but because BFH's are cheap you still have good gas for Marauder/Viking.

Basically mass BFH's get them to commit to a large amount of Stalkers and Cols. Then run them over with Marauder/Viking. I'm not sure how this would work because I know you said that Marines are the most important unit. Just wondering on your thoughts about that. I've seen some EMPs and 8-10 Hellions make like 40 food of Zealots disappear insanely fast.

thx

General but espeacially TvP, how do you think is the best way to learn a match-up? How do you think the TvP matchup is going to evolve (from both Protoss and Terran point of view)? When having problems with a certain situation in a match-up (for exemple, ghost timing pushes) how do you think it should be aproached to make it a positive learning experience in general, not just something one dimensional that stops that given push? (You touched on that in the vBloq 14 and I think it's an intersting topic).

Thank you very much, you inspired me.
