Hello Liquid Netizens!

You probably haven't heard of AceLessons yet, but perhaps you have heard of certain teams such as ALL4ONE Gaming and Check Six Gaming, both of which have coaches at our website!

Who are we?
We are Sam Wang, Tim Meissner, and Zhe Zhang (EtherealDeath), a triplet of Starcraft nerds who not only love playing the game but also have a passion for entrepreneurship in the field of E-SPORTS.

What is AceLessons?
AceLessons is a new website dedicated to providing free instructional content in the form of VODs and high level streams, while simultaneously providing paid content in the form of personal coaching with a wide range of high level coaches.

Our aim is to provide quality coaching at an affordable rate in a timely fashion. Students can expect contact with their coaches within 48 hours of purchase. Many of our Grandmaster league coaches are at a base hourly rate of $20/hour. There is also a wide variety of coaches in the range of $10/hour to $20/hour.

Coach time can be purchased in two ways - you can either buy a certain number of hours at a fixed rate, or you can purchase one of a set of packages which guarantee a larger block of hours at a reduced hourly rate.

Purchase xSixShadow at $20.00 per hour or...

Purchase 2 hours at $17.50 per hour


We have a customer guide which you can view below.

We also give back to the community through sponsorships of tournaments such as the z33k dailies last week (such as this one).

My name is Erik “xSixShadow” Kim.
I was previously in Team Revoki, currently in Team Check Six.
I have been with Blizzard game since 1996 SC1, WC3, then to SC2.

I started SC2 from Open Beta in Korea. I have experienced GSL Open Season 2 Qualifiers losing in the prelim finals. I am currently an enrolled student in Indiana University, but full time during the summer, preparing for big tournaments, such as MLGs.

I play protoss in the very high competetive level defeating many foreign pros (foreign for me). However, I am still capable of coaching zerg and terran in masters or lower level, and Protoss definately in GM level. My previous students loved my teaching style of analyzing the students’ plays and giving pointers to improve critically on overall skills. I am very aware of situational and elemental aspects of SC2 especially protoss.

Team: checksix (xSix)

Ladder Ranking: Top 50 Grandmasters (Top 50 North America)

Tournament Experience:
Tofoo tournament
Justin TV invitational
Go4Sc2 weekly #47

Heyo, what’s up! I am Nick “VT|Pokebunny” Taber, a professional Terran player for VT Gaming. I am a top 50 Grandmaster level player, and have earned more than $1000 from tournament and showmatch play. I consider myself a good coach for those Terrans who wish to learn an all-purpose aggressive style for all matchups based on harass and timing attacks, with solid transitions into later game.

I can teach a wide variety of students at any level, and help you with a multitude of things, including but not limited to build orders, game plans, scouting reactions, micro tips, and much more. I answer any questions students might have during the lesson and am willing to provide replays or answer questions out of lesson time.

I do expect my students to make an effort to improve out of lesson time, as I feel that it is a waste for both parties if you are not dedicated to improving your game to the highest level. I will not teach you shortcuts to get to diamond league, I will teach you solid methods that will work at any level if you learn it properly. I understand that many students may have limitations, whether they be in-game lack of skill or outside commitments, but it is my goal to work through those to make you the best you can be.

My lesson format varies on the level and needs of the student – feel free to contact me with specific questions regarding yourself. All lesson times must be scheduled or at least discussed in advance – I won’t do spur of the moment lessons. Hopefully my lessons are of interest to you – good luck in your gaming endeavors!

While i would heartily recommend new players taking lessons from both x6Shadow and Zerker, I feel it is necessary to warn Terran players seeking coaching about Pride. Rather than slander a player explicitly I'll merely link to a thread of his that i feel sums him up pretty well.

Well at least he can show you how to get to GM with poor mechanics/minimal game knowledge, and never having to build a command center right? Seriously, anyone considering terran coaching, do yourself a favor and go with pokebunny or another terran listed on the site if you want to know how to play past the 15 minute mark.

To be fair, Pride did do a perfectly macro build when I played against him (PvT).
