How can you raise your apm? My friends been having trouble with this as his decision making is okay, but he has trouble executing it. For example, he'll engage his army and be completely unable to reinforce because he doesn't have the speed to micro his army and have constant production...so is there a UMS or technic that will get him to start moving faster?

There's no magical secret to it, you just have to keep practicing.

Watching progamer first person vods should help too.

There's also the classic practicing spamming 1a2a3a4a5a6a7a8a9a0a over and over.

So I'm watching the DC stream and I noticed that after the plague the vessels had a random amount of health from 1-3.
1 vessel had 1 HP, 1 had 2 HP and the 3rd had 3 HP.

Can somebody explain this to me, is plague somehow random?


I'm also curious if there are any specific builds on maps that have 2 gases in the main (Vampire)? Something like a more powerful 2 hatch muta, 3-4 starport wraith and something really gas intensive for protoss like a 2 robo 4 reaver timing in PvP basically really strong all ins.

I thought Vampire was created for 2x2's as it is no-ramp with the double gas?

Dunno, but you can still ladder 1v1 on it and with 2 gases in the main I'm pretty sure you could do some funny 1 base shit-

So I have been wondering this for a while, do Protoss armor upgrades affect the damage a protoss unit takes before its shields are gone, or does it only affect their actual permanent hit points?
Thanks in advance!

Armour upgrades only affect their actual hit points, it's shield upgrades that affect the shields.

From Liquipedia:
Plague casts red toxic spores on units within the effect radius. These units subsequently begin to take 4 damage per second ignoring armor, until a total of 300 Hit Points is lost or until the unit's health falls to 1-3.

I don't know of any specific Vampire build but there's definitely potential to do something like that, I've done 3 port wraith builds (gas before rax) on normal maps so you should just experiment with different things and see what you can come up with, maybe DT/Reaver drop builds or something.

You open overpool and your opponent opens 1 gate fe. Assuming that you are planning on taking a quick third and that you made 6 initial lings, how do you react to your opponents early zealots.

Is 2 base 5-fact push at like ~10 mins a good timing when toss goes for quick double expand? If not, what is the "best" timing attack against this strat?
You mean I just write stuff here and other people can see it?

depends how quickly they double expo
in general you want to hit around the time they begin mining from their 3rd or a little bit earlier
