If I was just copying build orders and then playing them like a robot then I would agree with you Xeris, but this is just step one.

Well, its a great build, like I pointed out. This looks like the build he used against Best recently also. Best got caught up in his choke with poor position, which is just terrible and so he lost quick. I wrote a goon/reaver guide back in the day largely becuase of the fact that once you get a very efficient goon/reaver build and can micro it you are pretty much instantly playing high level pvp. Imagine if everyone analyzed builds and did this goon/reaver build well...pretty scary. What you call feel is what I call build efficiency and timing, and this is one of the main reasons bisu is so good and why I Iike his play.

But recently I wrote a guide on 3gate goon which is just as strong and probably a better place for newer players to start out.

Sure this is good for getting better, but as tunk was getting at what does this mean for you?
I dont play anymore and I think breaking down the game is a large part of why. At this point SC is largely just a matter of execution, of which responding to your opponent is a huge part, and also chance. This means playing tons for a chance at being considered great...which I honestly find kind of lame and see little real opportunity in anyway. But I suppose I just dont have the motivation and attitude necessary for high level play.

Well, what it means for me is that ideally I'll be able to play more competitively with my peers, which should be a little more fun for me, and I'll be able to contribute more intelligently in conversations about higher level play because I'll have some experience playing in a more technical way.

I love Starcraft, and I love competition.
