I thought this event had already happened and i missed it, because for me it says "thursday 6am aest". But right now its 11pm on thursday. but really this starts in like, 7 hours. sayyyyyyyyyyyyyylllllllllllllllleee also supernovamaniac did this. anyways, use date tags, and i'm looking forwards to this! Not my fault you live in the future. Jeez. :p Anyway, there still seems to be a bit of confusion about how exactly the show will work but I don't feel like typing it out, so I'll make it clear once we get started. See you all there! | ||

1: it's a huge ultra ling army and his army is tiny 2: His army was totally out of position.. It got caught in a big line ripe for Zerg to get a high aggregate of attack 3: He didn't have vessels or really anything but an early game looking m'm army (ok, you mention vessels a little later, but you need to go further than that). Okay, so the number 1 point is obviously his macro... But you can't just tell someone 'having 2000 minerals in the bank is bad' ... He knows that. He needs to know how he can fix that. You didn't comment on how his building positioning was not allowing him to macro properly, you didn't really tell him how his map control was frantic and taking up too much of his attention... I dunno! Maybe it is the pressure of trying to think of things to say on the spot, or maybe it is just not really having the insight, but you should work on this. | ||

There are some things I want to get into | ||

Great post, and thanks for the feedback, but i dislike how you view the show as a coaching session which it is not and i'm not a random dude being schooled, i insist on being a co-host so i would retain my dignity. ^_^ | ||

You only watched the show for a few minutes and you seem to not really understand what it's about. Let me explain. This is NOT a coaching session for KasPra. We are simply using his replays to help guide a discussion on how newbies can improve. What we talk about at any given time may not even have anything to do with what's going on in the game. Obviously 18 marines don't stand up to 12 ultralisks with medics or not. There were a million things we could point out in that game, but that's not what we're trying to do. In fact, that's what we're trying to avoid. We're purposely dumbing things down so that beginners don't get overwhelmed. I will be updating OP with links to more detailed discussions by Day9 and others for people who are interested. Your point about explaining how to macro rather than just saying "keep your money low" is good though. Will mention this in the next episode. | ||
