I understand its good to know that sort of thing, but gateways into expand into collosi timings are among the most basic in the game. I don't feel I learned anything as a terran player watching these  I know he can only cover so much in a single daily, but it just seemed like he repeated the same thing over and over for 2 hours :\ you just have to think about that as a exemple to how you need to work, if you find you already know those timing and you have some trouble with other timing why not try by your own and keep this daily just to know how to do it ? | ||

and maybe how to be able to not die to the mobility of zerg and terrans army as toss would be helpful as well, cause i know many toss players really have problems with fending off nydus/drops/zergling counter attacks while also having to fight in a big battle. | ||

Scouting pylons are an excellent way to both fake a proxy, and find these sorts of things. They also act as retard magnets, in that if he sees an undefended pylon, chances are, he'll attack it, which makes a drop/runby more obvious. Also, having pylons giving sight of your entire base is always a must - not only will you have more places to warp in units to deal with drops/nydus, but you'll spot the nyduses quite often. You should check out the daily about mechanics if you haven't, IIRC, he goes into the importance of watching your minimap quite a bit in that daily. Also, working on multitasking (simply by playing alot against the people who will force you to multitask) is a good way to deal with these situations. Not as good as a daily, but I hope this advice helps somewhat | ||

I notice that you often snap your neck back and forth in an attempt to "crack" your neck. This is actually a pretty inadviseable thing to do, as there is no real benefit to cracking your neck, and each time you crack your neck you are risking a stroke. How? When you crack your neck you are indirectly moving your carotid artery around, and there is a chance of it sloughing off of where it is supposed to be. From there it can easily be pinched off by one of the vertebrae that you are moving around in the process of snapping your neck. This advice brought to you by a biology curriculum's statistic's teacher. I only post this because I want to continue seeing dailies  <3 Day[9] | ||

You're right. I should have consulted the archives first, I didn't think. Thanks though, and I'll look there again first if I have any more inquiries. | ||

Your vertebrae/carotid artery* are important, don't fuck with them! *basically everything in your neck is really important | ||

One of the game is like 25 minutes long, and shows excessive use of nydus worms, queens, infestors, ultralisks and broodlords. Spanishiwa shows some great tactics to minimize larvae usage during early/midgame, to be able to drown up hard and get infestors/ultras fast. Destiny shows very creative use of infestors. Hope you have the opportunity to possibly cast some of these games. http://www.sc-replay.com/replay/10-04-11/11114-ROOTDestiny-VS-vileSpanshwa.html#s_units_gd theres the replay.. PLEASE take a look at this one. spanishwa also did a cute technique of making like 20 spinecrawlers in late game and cancelling them to boost his food up to 220. the game has it all! i don't think it was that particular replay though, they just played the game today | ||
