The awesome replay pack initially linked in the PDF seems to be non-existant now. Any chance someone could repost it?

Wow...
My PvT improved significantly after reading this guide.
This thread suggests using 12 nexus, and I think I am winning 10 in a row with diff opponents each time.
12 Nexus makes 2 fac Terran game a easy win.

I used to use bulldog toss, and always lost to better T players.nse.

The 12 Nexus is a very powerful tool to have, but make sure you can use all the openings on all the maps they are viable on. For instance, on a map like Bloody Ridge or Alternative a 12 Nexus might not be as strong as on La Mancha, Jade, or Electric Circuit.

Being able to properly execute the 3 Dragoon expand and other 1 Gateway openings will really solidify your understanding of the game and in game mechanics, if you learn them correctly. However, if you always resort in the 12 Nexus opening (Which most players on iCCup have no idea how to play against) I question how much you will actually improve, especially in a BOX series or tournament play.

What is that going to teach you but a small subset of the game? At best, you'll become Horang2, a completely unpredictable entity that loses more than he wins because his core skillset doesn't exist. If you want to only steal the odd game from higher leveled players, then someone like Horang2 is a great guide to follow. If you don't want to improve and just want to do whatever crazy strategy you think of, well just go do that. So before you start off , fi gure out what you want to aim for, then adjust the means to that goal.

My BW events/showmatches: https://tinyurl.com/theleo-fund / This will be awesome if they manage to only improve the graphics but keep the gameplay EXACTLY THE SAME. One thing that makes BW great to watch is actually the buggy pathfinding (c) Dante08

Easy to agree since most of what i read is 100% right.
Ive coached a good amount of players in my days and my first step when players were noobs was telling them to watch pro reps and explain to me why they do what they do.
At the moment when they started to get the hang of it, they were ready to learn by themselves.
