I think you should do podcasts with the commentating style you used in Chill vs Combat-Ex

Inspired by the latest podcast I decided to look into some of the zerg timings.

ZvP:
If you start your gas at the same time as his gateway his first corsair will reach your base around 30-40 seconds before your first scourges pop. If he wants to check out your whole base he won't have time to kill an overlord, but it will be tight and he might decide to go straight for the overlord.

If you instead want to defend with hydras you can take your first gas right as his stargate starts and you'll have hydras out just as he reaches your base. This is very useful to know vs 1base builds. If you're already mining gas you should lay the hydra den around when the stargate is a little more than half way done.

ZvT:
If you start your qnest when his factory is just slightly more than halfway done you'll have consume a minute after his vessel pops, which should be fine. The next thing is to consider when you want to aim for the defiler before the push and when you want to delay it till the second push.

I've been listening to these audios all day (amazing btw!) and i was curious about what he said during the "play against weaker opponents" audio where he said to drop down to D to face weaker opponents... how do you?

I tried making a new account and couldn't (i assume its bound to IP or something?) i dunno, any help?

just small pieces of Trentemoller's music are worth listening, not even mentioning SC stuff

Do we suggest topics for you here? Do you think one day you could cover Zerg vs Zerg? Such as covering the 3 basic BOs (9pool 12pool 12hatch) and what the goal is for each of them compared to what your opponent is doing (such as if you 12pool and your opponent 12hatchs how do you want to play). Maybe cover how to scout and adapt also (although that's really vague of a topic :\).

ZvZ is by far my weakest match-up not only because it's hard to find a Zerg on ICCUP (let alone one who wont kick me because he doesn't want to ZvZ) but also because there are so few guides on ZvZ out there (other than BOs and muta-micro / muta vs scourge guides).
