I think it was light-hearted humor?

i got to the 'future GSL champion part' and stopped reading. i appreciate humor in a guide, but this is just overkill.

Come on guys, a little confidence never hurt anyone. Remember when HuK said he wanted to be the next Boxer and people's heads exploded? Well HuK turned out to be really amazing. Clearly, lofty goals are a good motivator for some players and it's not hurting anyone for said players to have those goals.
Stop taking things so seriously

yeah but a bunch of my master level friends have beat him in custom/ladder before so i don't see why he should claim to be the next GSL champion if he's not even the best European player. HuK was #1 on NA server for ages.

He said "future," not "next." It's just a goal. If he wants to have that level of commitment and confidence, it doesn't affect you.

This is pretty interesting, but don't think you should post an incomplete guide. No replays is a bummer and the vod game wasn't very good in my opinion. That terran just let his army get split up too many times. And I found the copyright thing kinda obnoxious, and as mentioned, you don't need spoilers for everything. Other than that, color me intrigued. Looking forward to the replays.

Will you people lighten up. Calling him arrogant or cocky for labeling himself future GSL champion is the equivalent of calling a 4year old arrogant when he says he wants to grow up and be a firefighter. A bit on the cute side? You be the judge. Arrogant? definitely not.
On topic however: From the VoD it looks very similar to WhiteRa's early game style except he goes into templar instead of expanding as aggressively. He's weakness seems to be well done stim timings into mass drops timed around the completion of charge. Any experience with that?

Stim timings can be scary pre-charge, but in my experience the trick is to get a pylon built behind where you expect Terran to attack from, so that you can warp in Zealot to flank from behind.
@ Everyone, asking for replays: I've been doing this style for a while, but I wasnt aware that I was going to share it in this format on TL which means I didnt save up replays, so I'm grinding games atm in order to show you guys some scenarios. I'm really sorry if the guide feels uncomplete without the replays, but I thought I'd share the key concepts with you and add replays as I get them.

Excuse me for not taking every game I play 100 percent seriously! + Show Spoiler +

OK, please make sure to save both winners and losers, and give us some idea of % win...
Thanks!

Basically this. Come on, guys. Someone making bombastic claims on the internet? How dare he!
Same goes for the copyright thing. I thought it was amusing. That said, if OP is half as good at Starcraft as he is at typing out useless spoiler tags, he'll be GSL champion in no time.
The philosophy is interesting, but it needs more information than a vague starting BO and a half dozen one liners that are far too much work to get to - not to mention a million "coming soon" tags that are even more work to get to - before I would feel at all comfortable trying it out. I can't learn a build from the scant info in the OP, especially a curve-ball style like this.

People here sure are spoiled with perfect guides. It's not complete by any means at the moment but all you need is the idea for people to start experimenting.

Hi AoWIIIIIIIIIII
I had something I added, to help from my 1gate FE --- with my Robo , later on I add 2 WP, and then use this to create my flanking zealots (the terran walks across map, then I move my WP's into position to warp in).
E.G. on Metal I keep the WP between the watch towers, so I can easily create a flank from both 'lanes'

This style works amazingly well at lower levels, I have been crushing terran all day with this build. I am gold though :D
|
how does it fare against early terran pressure? marauders can kite zealots quite well if you only have sentries at the back
|
Why is everyone so serious about gsl champion thing... jeez

I shall reserve this for answering questions in this thread.
How many zealots do you make before you know to stop zealots production?

you people on this forum rage so hard about such stupid things. this guide is ahead of its time. i myself have been doing similar stuff for ages. gas deprivation is basically the next big thing in matchups.
gas deprivation in a matchup where only mineral units can be viable in mid game give you... macro games.
you want macro games if you are good at sc2.
