Amazing guide! I especially enjoyed and appreciated the attention given to mouse acceleration. Some high level players I talk to sadly don't even know what this is... maybe it is because I come from an FPS background and they don't? Regardless, thank you for all the work!

Excellent read, there are a lot of topics of interest that I think not many people realize how important they are.

Certain people have blue posts in the strategy section if they are considered to have consistent, valid points and knowledge of the game... Or something along those lines.

Blue posters are those who are known to give quality posts. So pay attention to them.
Edit: Beat to it.

And I'm definitely going to follow this guide thanks a lot!

I guess it's impossible to use only 1 build as zerg? I think whatever build I use it will always suck hard in at least 1 matchup. I'm in platinum right now

I gather from your introduction that you're still in high-school, so that would make you 17-18? The following comment is based on that assumption.

I am very impressed with your cognitive abillities. I am curious as to the details of how you've developed the aproach to problem solving you demonstrate here. It is very methodical and analytical, traits that are not common among teenagers. Actually untill the emergence of positivism a century ago they weren't common among anyone, except mathematicians.

I'm particularly interested in how and when you became aware of the importance of clear definitions when discussing a subject?

Great guide man, making it almost makes me depressed because I know I'm not going to have time in college with studies and other stuff to practice everything you said, but I fully recognize that this is where I should start.

Well deserved spotlight ^^

This is a truly beautiful piece of work, and feels like one of those In-Depth GameFAQs guides for Starcraft that I was looking for when I first started. Even now, as a high level platinum player, I can still get sooo much from this, and so can all my newbie friends starting the game! Amazing work, and keep up all you do to keep the strategy section a place where some reasonable amount of quality material is produced!!
