hmm im currently ranked 4th in my platinum solo league and the way i got my buddy better in other games like SCBW, Wc3, and so far a little bit in SC2 was just by standing behind him and staying on top of him when he'd either slow down or do something incorrectly. After awhile it eventually became second nature to him. So i'd suggest if you have a buddy who knows whats going on play a lot of CGs with him watching and telling you what to do or what u r doing wrong on a constant basis, eventually it'll become second nature to you. Plus your speed will greatly increase if u feel the pressure of someone telling you what to do as long as you can handle it.

Get a good keyboard and mouse. That should help as well if you haven't got it already.

Buy the game for $60, and then pay someone $20-40 an hour to help you become better at it ? (results not guaranteed)

"gosu coaching" is massively overpriced.

Read the strategy forum, watch replays of better players. Think critically.


how is it massively overpriced? Thats actually pretty cheap to be taught from the current top players on the US server. It's equalivant to paying the very top usa golfers to teach you (tiger woods/phil mickelson) or hockey players, or the very top usa basketball players. Lets just say Kobe Bryant or Tiger Woods would charge ALOT more than just 20/hr. So being able to invest such a small amount of money, and get to train with the current *best* players on the server seems like a really good deal to me.

Consider it for the future. Starcraft 2 has a promising career in e-sports future. So, investing $100-200 now to learn the game really well, will probably pay off down the line when you are now good enough to take home prize money in the thousands!

This entire post is nothing more than speculation and illogical assertions.

Cheap is free as that is the price of equivalent services.

You bump a thread that is >1 year old to advertise your coaching site?

If he is advertising, he hasn't read the rules.

If you don't read the rules, you lied when signing up.

If you lied when signing up, then you should be banned.

Edit: Plus his first post was doing pretty much the exact same thing, just in a new thread.
