Hello! I Am Knighter (previously cvgKnighter) (Qualifications And Experience Posted @ Bottom)

- This will not only be a blog for me to help give to the teamliquid community through free coaching but also where I will post future news, possibly vlogs, and progress of my march back up to GM with new race Zerg in NA and EU

** Make sure to check out my twitter for daily updates on coaching sessions! twitter.com/Knightersc2

** Im On NA Server **

** How to apply for a spot for coaching **
+ Show Spoiler +
There is a thread listen below, Fill that out and post it in this thread and also contact me through skype or sc2

Requirements:
Must be 14 years +
Must have skype + a mic
Decent english (as it is the only language I speak)
Understand the spoiler below about how I coach
Have a good attitude :D


** How Coaching With Me Will Work **
+ Show Spoiler +
I coach to help players from all skill levels improve at one of the most complex and brain consuming games out there. I will teach you the basic mechanics for newer players to vast amounts of strategies for higher level players.

How does coaching work? I coach very simply, I make it fun and a good time, i make sure you learn a lot but also enjoy learning, cause It's just a game, but at the same time no one wants to be bad at something they enjoy.

It Will NOT be easy at all times I will make the sessions sometimes aggrevating, as I will do whatever it takes to help you exceed in your skill level .

You MUST be willing to change and adjust your playstyle in the custom games played during lessons, and ladder games in the future.

When I coach you I will generally begin by viewing you in a scrimage with a friend or someone I can find where I will be able to identifiy your weaknesses you may not know and your strengths, this will give me a better handle on what to primarily work on through our sessions.


** About Me **
+ Show Spoiler +
I've coached protoss and zerg for 11 months, however i took a short break from the starcraft 2 scene and now (since over a month) i have gotten back into the scene decided to re-create my post here on teamliquid to give some more outreach. Currently, I am a Top Master Zerg and Top Master/Grandmaster level protoss player and have played starcraft 2 since season 1 and beta. Before starcraft 2 (And a bit during) I played alot of DoTa, HoN, and Starcraft 1 (original and Brood War). Im currently a Canadian College student and very into Starcraft 2, From analyzing to theory to gameplay Im very dedicated to being a strong competitive sc2 player and helping you become that too!

If you want to contact me for coaching or even just questions, you can either post on this thread, send a pm at Knighter.397, or email me @ schriknicolas@gmail.com best way though is via skype @ Nick.Schrik

Generally, I'm on every single day, times vary due to college class times but im very active. So we should be able to get in touch very easily!


** Contact Info **

Username: Knighter ID:397

** Quick Point, Dont leave your name + Id here only and expect me to contact you, if you are looking for coaching after posting here also skype me Nick.Schrik OR add me on sc2 and msg me there please im more likely to find coaching time for you **

** Also First Post here what you need help with and your contact information then pm me in sc2 or skype - This allows my to contact you both ways, whichever location I may be at at one point in time**

This is great! I myself dont have the possibility to pay for coaching in dollar quantities, and I feel I really need it.
If I may apply:

What is your Skype?
eeChiama
What leauge (and/or rank) are you in and are hoping to become?
Diamond, rank 15 atm. Hoping to get to high masters!
What do you hope to get out of a lesson?
Up to date build orders and their strategy, but most importantly the ability and knowledge to understand certain gameplay situations and react accordingly. Knowledge is power!
About how many hours a week do you dedicate to Sc2?
15 is a given, more is possible. I actually have a lot more of free time, but sometimes feel overwhelmed over the idea of laddering. Im trying to overcome this, yesterday I played many games (ended 16-19 >.<)
What are your goals in sc2?
Getting to a competitive level of play, and participate in some local tourneys and post good results! Pretty much to be where you are
What are your weakness in your gameplay?
Choosing my engagements, desition-making, army positioning
What are your strengths in your gameplay?
I am proud of being able to fool around with the warp prism somewhat effectively..
But overall, I dont really feel that I have many strengths, I think of my play as somewhat leveled across the field.

What is your Skype?
boblepoh
What league (and/or rank) are you in and are hoping to become?
Masters ~ 10
What do you hope to get out of a lesson?
To gain a stronger understanding of TvP outside of the midgame. Or TvZ if you no longer play P.
About how many hours a week do you dedicate to Sc2?
20-30. Thinking of increasing during the summer.
What are your goals in sc2?
To win online cups.
What are your weakness in your gameplay?
Lategame thought process is not strong. Often APM is not fast enough to do what I want to do:
+ Show Spoiler +
What I've been trying in TvP, is having two blocks of army, and a drop at the same time. As one block baits an attack, it retreats and the other does damage, and to avoid gg warp ins the drops forces those to be in base. At this point I feel like my APM is not fast enough to do it.
The same issues happen in TvZ, just with different army compositions/controls.

What are your strengths in your gameplay?
I feel like I am a strong midgame player, but once it reaches lategame my perception and speed are not up to snuff.
