Hm, on phase 1 I've consistently been able to get 50 food with stim finishing exactly at 6:40, but my conc shells are a bit behind where yours where and I'm obviously missing the two food you had. Good enough to move on or should I just continue until I get it identical to the replay?

It's interesting cause I've been using a similar program on myself with Z. I find the speedling expand build works well for this just because of the oppurtunities to learn precision. I do 15 gas 14 pool 16 OL immediate queen and one ling. Pull off gas @ exactly 100 expand as soon as possible. First stage for me was learning to time the 2nd queen and drone transfers right. Then figure out exactly how long it took me to get perfectly saturated and identify saturation against a very easy AI. Then a chain of gas expenditure, whatever works for you (for me its bane nest, lair, +1, muta at least in the exercise). Second stage is the same exact thing except that first ling has to go to the watchtowers and the camera goes on the ling. Stage three has been the multitasking tester where you do your build while running a probe from a ling. Good guide!

RTyYuf. 946 race: random

Interested in learning TvT only. I can macro and multitask at Masters level but my play is very unrefined and I basically make up all my builds. I really need insight on how to handle the TvT matchup because it is my weakest.

Idk if this is the right place to find that kind of help but I would appreciate it nontheless. Thanks.

Really awesome program. Been playing some SC2 on and off for a while but unable to really get it going smoothly. This looks like it will give me a great jumpstart.

Currently trying to squeeze out the last few supplies right when stim is finished. Can't seem to get more than 48 supply by the time stim finishes at 6:40. The last few are always ~7 seconds late.

I'll post again later on to give a better view on how it went. Thanks!

Im looking for a partner to do this stuff, we can help each other ¡¡

@ OP: Would be interesting to see a replay doing the 3rax but sending the scout scv and using a scan on the enemy's base, cause that changes the outcome

Also, u r suposed to hit the enemy's base just when stim finishes, and in your replay that would mean to leave ur base with 4 marauders and 1 marine at 6:00. So either u leave the base with that or u delay the stim right?

My question is, when i finally hit with stim, am I expecting to do damage? Also, I have been following up with tanks but i want to do drop play, can you point me to a strat or player with good replays to watch? I have been watching MMA but he is so much better it is almost pointless to watch LOL.

I actually went back to playing protoss and implemented this way of working with build orders and basic macro. And I have to say it's incredible, I usually outmacro my opponents down in silver like crazy.

Oh and I actually picked one build order for each matcup and tries to practice them all regularly in order to have an easier time on ladder since one build order is hard to get to working in all matchups, so it's a little slower on the timings but I get all the more macro practice with tapping and building probes & pylons.

Silver league might be a little early to have multiple builds but it is more advantageous to have a build for each match-up as long as you don't forget the essentials and get too caught up in builds.

People blame a loss on their build more often than the 5 minutes they forgot to build workers.
