I keep hearing about the team Media in SC:BW which had yourself, Artosis, Ret, IdrA etc but I don't know the history of the team, the achievements of it and ultimately how to came to an end. I'm quite interested in this and couldn't find any information on the team itself.
Could you tell (me) us about the team? Who was in it, general chit-chat about it, the works?
G5, Machine, Lzgamer, Artosis, IdrA, Skew (Now SKU), Assem and a few others. It was less a team and more a vent hangout. Nony, ret, response and others all came there to game/train. We joked around and got angry at each other on a nightly basis. Was a really good time. Usually capped off with all of us meeting at usa finals or other lans.

Who's the most interesting gamer you've met in person?
really tough to say.. I would have to say probably artosis. Cares more deeply than almost any other. Literally would give you the shirt off his back if you needed it as a fellow gamer. He is amazing.

Incontrol your a huge idol of mine, and i model my life after you in some ways i think your absolutely hilarious, and oh hold on let me wipe this spit from my lip etc, anyway
Im a kinda big football player i recently started following it to reconnect with my father and im not sure what i want to play in high school i love sc and programming but i do want to play sports so i can have more friends.
What did u play in football? im 14 5'11 180 lbs and i am decent at everything, i want to play QB and d back but i dont know what the coach will pick for me, thanks :D
Tightend, Defensive end, linebacker, receiver etc.. these are all of course just blanket spots that based on your height would be good. You are taller and young so d back positions are probably a nono.
Thanks for the kind words dude and gl with your football!
Also check out basketball, baseball and possibly track. Usually those are different seasons (actually basketball is the same in HS I believe?)

Tightend is alot of fun Fullback is also pretty fun but i think im not fast enuf
thanks for responding and whatever your doing in fontana i will go to i live in Oakland. Also what was your HS life like, in terms of girls, and friends, being popular etc. in general i don't really worry about it but you seem pretty interesting and having the ability to pick your brain is nice.

Whens the last time you played bw? And if for some reason you started laddering bw again do you think you'd be able to hit B+ again?
|
Any tips for switching rally points quicker in BW?

If you removed the 88 on TL cause of the HH thing, isn't it way worse to have it on Twitter where people unfamiliar with SC will see it? D:

Haven't played bw since wcg usa finals and no I wouldn't be able to get b+ on the ladder. I mean obviously I would if I literally put in enough time to get into old form but it would take a month to do that.

Incontrol, do you have non game related irl friends?

What do you think of LaLush's "Analysis of Macro" thread?

Do you have any advice for an awful player (still in bronze after around 500 games) who wants to get better, and hopefully go pro at some point.
I remember in one of the SotGs the question got asked, and you said that it would be really easy for those who it's going to happen to, can you elaborate on this and if so could you also give some pointers and tips?
|
Incontrol- I love watching the State of the Game Pregame. Its Hillarious!! I didnt even know totalbiscuit was part of the SC scene as Ive only heard him on wow(lol) videos that my little brother was watching.
Anyways I would strongly encourage you to pursue a comedy career (you are so funny and it is in no way over the top, people just have no sense of humor on the net).
ALSO encourage the players you coach to record the sessions! Ive watched one for each MU and they have revolutionized my play.
PS this might not be necessary because if i get into Diamond (currently struggling to hit above 50/50 in plat) I WILL be getting lessons from you.
No question from me now, just ignore the haters and keep doing what you're doing pal.

what do you think about "imbalance ep2" ? (aka zergs qqing on a couch)
i want to hear a rant from you about the ferret to laugh my ass off

The easiest way to get you from bronze is to learn how to perform a build order. Personally I had never played an online RTS ever in my life, and got to diamond with 3 raxing when the game got released.
Always make workers, check the food marks for what u wanna do next
There are tons of replay sites you can download a pro game replay and just do what they do ^^

Probably been asked before but whats your max bench?

Hey incontrol, i met you at the wcg qualifier in bellevue wash. in like 03 or 04 i believe. I think you beat LJT in the finals.
Just thought I'd bring some reminiscing

Well, when I said, "still in bronze" I'm kindof getting into silver now, the majority of my matches have been against them recently, so I think a promotion is pretty close.
I can do a build order, but at the moment I'm stuck for which one to do, I've been dabbling in the roach speedling opening, and sometimes it works, but I can't handle early pressure or any form of air.
And, I should really start downloading pro replays, for some reason that idea hasn't come to me :S
|
Do you ever spend time creating your own build orders? If so, how does that creative process work? I.e. spending time in a custom game by yourself, playing against practice partners, etc.

iNcontroL, what does the scouter say about your POWER LEVEL?
