Please relax on the hyperbole when you're teaching things. I'm not sure everyone is the same but I feel like taking a hammer to the face after hearing three REALLYs in the same sentence and five HUGEs in the next. It's great stuff don't get me wrong but sometimes there's just too much exaggeration. | ||

I disagree. i like that day[9] has a lot of energy. it gives it more flavor instead of a bland guys tell you what and what not to do. | ||

However I have a question. Playing at this level, like you pointed out people don't have a tendency to play a macro game. People are very focused on getting an army out quickly, even unintentionally cutting probes and doing things like 5 rax to get a massive amount of burst with producing units. When I try to play a macro game focused on building a lot of probes, getting a good saturation, getting upgrades etc. I find I am constantly being overwhelmed by a large amount of units and I know if I had better micro I could easily fend off their attacks and eventually overwhelm their usually one base play... But I feel that I just don't have the ability to do this (literally, I just don't have the micro and unit control to win a battle that I should be able to), and this forces me in turn to cut workers and keep up with their army size. Perfect example if I saw an army of the Terran's size, mass marauders with That amount of barracks, I feel like I HAVE to chuck down a couple more gateway's, even though I know that if I keep building workers like I SHOULD, I wont be able to support them. (I currently find most of my games coming down to like a 1 base 2 gate robo, into 2 more gates and a twilight council... and Then I think about expanding =\ I know this isn't doing much to help me become a better player, but I cant get out of the mindset in a game of seeing a bunch of units and thinking I need x and y and this and that, especially when I try to play with better macro I usually get pumped.) How can one get out of that trap of literally feeling incapable of playing a macro based strategy when constantly being overwhelmed by a mass amount of units at this level? If anyone else has an answer that would be greatly appreciated. ^^ | ||

You can't just mindset your way into everything. Reality doesn't give a shit what you think. When a game is imbalanced you can play it safe and say things like "don't stop trying to innovate and play creatively" or if you've got any real analysis ability and balls you could come out and have some actual opinions on things. | ||

Watch it again, he never said there is no imbalance, he says if you go into a game thinking that you are going to lose then you will do worse then if you think you are going to win. | ||
