FOCUS ON GETTING BETTER ON LADDER (i understand if your a top playing but again you guys arnt understanding this is about mid masters-high diamond players who cheese on ladder) | ||

Ret cleans up pretty easily though, even though he didn't have much of an army. 75 drones for Ret O.O Mutalisks out. 4th base for Ret at mid right main base. Wow. Select's third- with PF. ~13:30 Select going hardcore Factories now, but Ret is getting a FIFTH BASE at his high yield O.O Ret is mutalisk harrassing pretty well, containing Select. Greater spire going down. Ret: 190 food Select: 140 food Ret wants to attack soon. So Many Banelings  ~16:00 | ||

Yeah, audio could be handled better in a lot of casts. The crowd doesn't have mics, no compression, I've heard de-essers giving casters lisps, all of it. It helps a lot to listen through speakers at a slightly lower level, headphones are murder though. | ||
