Hello again TL. Sorry I haven't posted a blog in a while but I've been busy getting ready for my move to Poland. I officially move May 5th and will start my intense training schedule once I get setup, So for anyone interested in a high masters protoss player that streams on a daily basis and commentates all my games make sure to follow my stream at www.twitch.tv/LgNkarmy or my twitter to know when I go live and my upcoming events @LgNkarmy.

So the new season begun and I haven't been focusing on NA at all (I'm 0-7 on NA right now =[ Major tilt at the beginning of the week) On EU I jumped on a few minutes after the serves went live and played my match right away. I got place into the first and one of the hardest divisions with my soon to be roommate Wilko. So this season I don't plan on having a great ladder ranking with the tough competition but it'll also give me an opportunity to review my improvement.

My replay pack is nearing completion. I have 5 good quality games and I'm going to be releasing it officially next friday. My coaching services are officially ready to go. 20$ an hour on NA or EU , If you're interested email me at LgNkarmy@hotmail.com .

I've recently been working on a new PvP midgame that I think will be very very solid when I get it ironed out. I've been working on it with Wilko, LgNtheoRy, and LgNkane. I think it's getting close to completion but there are some major holes that may not be able to be fixed which turns it into a very situational build and I don't really want it. I'll keep you guys updated but for now I'll give you a taste of the skeleton of the build is.

So it's basically any safe gateway expand build, Even blink expand can work since it focuses on charge/archon unit comp with a bit of a twist. The way I've been playing it is a 5 stalker rush off 2 gates into expand with fast forge. I get map control and be aggressive with my first 5 stalkers and get a fast +1 attack after the expand with 2 cannons on the high ground for detection and defensive purposes. I transition it into 4 gates and a stargate for phoenix's, I get 4 chrono'd out phonixes and harass his mineral line and scout with it. If I see colo tech I start into some VRs to be defensive against a colo timing push. From here I get charge and +2 attack. The timing on when you get the HT archives and 2 additional gates is dependant on your macro and how you have to play the mid game. If you're forced to make 4 early VRs because double robo play then you'll have to delay it for a very long time and focus on safely macroing. The reasons this build has potential is because of the harass aspect, It counts nearly every mid game. VR > colo, and if he goes charge/archon yourself you have the upgrades faster and can already harass with the early phoenix. With this build I haven't actually lost a mid-late game with it. It's very volatile against blink but seems okay against immortal pushes because of FFs and phoenix to pick up immo's, So if I can figure out a way to deal with blink aggression I think i'll be able to work out a very solid build and I hope to present it very soon.


Other than that I'm getting back into streaming while mashing games. I took a bit of a break because I didn't want to burn out since I'm moving to Poland to practice 11 hours a day I just wanted to go a bit easy the last few weeks, but since the house has been pushed back a lot due to unexpected delays I've been taking to long of breaks and not playing near enough =P. So a result to that is that I've been slumping and not playing to my highest potential but I'll get back to it!!


Thanks for reading my wall of text! Sorry if it was boring, but I'm using these blogs for anyone that wants to follow me and I plan to getting back on a day to day basis.
