good VODs, ZvT was particularly interesting, although maybe you should have talked more about what exactly you should have done differently - drop from a different position? not drop at all? just wait longer for him to push out? Also I wonder how could you have known he had such good defenses there? If you just fly an overlord over there you get information but so does he.

yeah I realized the lack of explaining what I did wrong on that video, the game turned around too fast and I didn't have enough time to talk about though I should have arranged it somehow, hence why I'll pay more attention to answer any questions concerning the game over here and on youtube.

Yeah, I was a bit too quick to act with the drop really, and probably waited until I can afford a bigger drop anyway. The mistake was that he could return back before I can do any real damage. This was because 1. the drop was too small and 2. yea he could return. I didn't want to turn the game into a 'destroy your opponent faster than he kills you' type of a game though, so I was too hasty with the drop. If I had hid the drop better then it would have been a different deal. Also, seeing those vultures and those turrets, it was pretty obvious that he expected a drop, in which case I might not want to drop at all until I've maybe cleared the area of some turrets and mines etc by running in with 2 groups of mutas and running away or something, giving me a better chance for it. I probably coulda figured his defenses out with mutas too, and mutas dont necessarily give out the fact that I am dropping.

the terran's idea of pretending to move out and suckering you into the drop was actually pretty sick, what a clever guy

I've watched a couple of your VODs before, but I didn't realize they were so in-depth and explanatory until now. Basically what this guy said in a post on one of the PvZ VODs:
Ahzz, thank you for your videos, you have a very great, straightforward, easy to follow casting style. You build up your strategy like someone proving a math theorem, every step moves forward logically toward an intended result.

Thank you!

is it ever worthwhile to save 3 larva, pretending to get lings against a protoss FE and then getting all drones? or will protoss just cancel cannons? Also, i often see pro zergs open 9 overpool and then when the protoss goes forge cannon expo or forge expo cannon, then they opt for just 2 lings while droning. do 2 drones at that point make a bigger impact than the protoss skipping a cannon? because with only 2 lings they don't really need to add anything until they see more lings.

Sorry for the dumb questions, but i don't know the answers, i always just get 8 lings, 6 to go see if i can get up the ramp or kill probes if he blocks while skipping on cannons while 2 lings chase the probe in my base because at D+ level protoss can't micro probes in nat and keep their scouting probe alive

yes it's possible to do this, however you want to have at least 2 lings asap. After a while you want to make a couple more to scout him and see his choke etc so that you're not caught off guard and so that you can make it harder for him to scout again.

so yes, you can do it, but after a couple of drones you'll probably want to make a couple more.

if you are doing that make sure your opponent is not going 1 gate tech or 2 tech blindly. also 9 overpool, i have no idea how you are planning to get your natural hatchery up ever if you are not making lings
i can take you

Hey Ahzz man so I found all these vods a couple days ago and you really know what your talking about. In just the few video's I have seen I have already improved my problems that were causing me to lose against players I shouldn't have been losing to in the first place. Thanks a bunch for uploading your video's and taking time to explain everything in great detail.

Hope to see more zvt/zvp vods

uploaded a new ZvT video vs Flash build on heartbreak ridge.
I had a pretty big break when I didn't play much, and now that I look at the videos I maybe could've commentated on before I realize how badly I played so I'll have to record more games before I can post more. I feel like my PvZ has improved quite a bit as well. I'll try to get more of them out soon..

I'll also probably try and analyze some progames as well.
