I got to do a test run of the show with Ipp as we were working out the details. I'm in Silver (still) here are the two key things I came away with as a Zerg player.

1) Ling Poke; I'm a big proponent of changlings for scouting but until those are available I need to send a link up the ramp more frequently to try and get some understanding of at least what units my opponent has built and thus at least to some extent what they've committed to building as part of their army composition. I was blind countering too much.
2) Know what it takes; that is, if he has 4 zealots and 3 stalkers how many roaches and lings do I need to beat that and not built 20 roaches and 20 lings and impact my drone or tech growth. I know what the counter units are but I didn't know how many units - or at least approximately how many - which is important.

That along with a recommended ZvP build that Ipp gave me before that. I don't have the exact stats here but I've gone from like 30-33% win vs. P to something like 48% in a few days, so making progress. Most important I think is I'm just more confident when I see my opponent is P.

Worst Match-Up ZvZ Can't really get ahead of the opponent zerg and I feel like I am always one step behind my opponent. I also only win against zergs who are really bad.

A game where the first thing you do is scout with a “worker”. Does that make any sense? Who scouts with a “worker”? That’s like sending out the janitor to perform recon, what general would do that? Retarded game.

That sounds amazing. How do you decide who is going to be your guest on the show? Also, I'm typically not very bright so I may have missed it but did you say what day/time the show is going to be on?

@s.Carter; for guest selection we'll just want to make sure we mix it up by guest race, matchup and level. So maybe a Terran this week who wants to focus on TvP in Gold and then a Protoss next week that wants to focus on PvZ in Platinum, etc.

Show is Thursdays at 8:30 eastern.

This sounds like it will be a lot of help for people, even qxc. =P

I was going to see if I would be able to help out, but Thursday's is basically a meeting day for me so that won't happen at all. I'll make sure to catch the VOD's though, thanks for helping out the community bud. =)

Primarily I'm having trouble with good unit composition going into the later stages of the game as well how to win the game once the map has been cut in half and all the bases have been secured. Also I have trouble with punishing some opening builds. I'm not sure as to the best response to the build bubbles does on xel'naga caverns.

Thanks for helping out.

Haha what?

The shows sounds like a great idea though. I'll try to get a few silver friends to apply and hopefully it'll help em out!

I am new to your site and I must say it isn't very user friendly. Or I am just pressing all the wrong buttons. I was trying to find more information about this event on your site and it seems it isn't on the first page of your news section.
I have to log in to view the second news page and there aren't any tabs on the top of the screen to jump to different section on your site. There is a navigation tab but it has offers very limited options.
You probably have a very good core of viewers but for new users it is really hard to find out what you guys offer.

Anyway, sounds like a pretty cool idea. I might tune in once to check it out.


Noted. I (as well as Myrathi, Tom, and Ipp) are all working to make the site as clear cut and easy to use as possible.

This event doesn't have any additional information on our website. It's all present in this thread. Once we add it, it will be present with a news post and an event listing.

Right now, there's also no listing of the events other than via the news posts. That will change soon enough.

You also pointed out a bug on the site - not being able to see the pages of news without being logged in. I'll check that one out, as well.

Thanks for the input!

Baneling / speedling wars can sometimes be pretty tedious, then decision making can alot of the time cause me to lose the game in ZvZ, sometimes i will lose to mutas because im not prepared, get behind because they expanded and i mis microed banelings, or sometimes just make alot of bad decisions.

I really only seem to win against toss if I all-in/rush. If it gets to a macro battle, I only win if I can get it to a 200/200 battle and overwhelm with crazy replenishments.
Phoenix are scary, and with the next patch coming, they'll be even more scary.

Not that I've signed up (but maybe I should....), but it seems everybody but qxc has forgotten to attach replays. Just a reminder to all applicants.

and at fecalfest, you shouldn't let him get to 200/200, if you're going to fight, you need to be above him in food count. Zerg is known for "weaker, but more" units. So you get more units, but they're generally weaker, if you both are capped at 200/200 (not counting 300 food push), then his army is stronger, because you have the same amount of units as him, but yours are weaker. Have more units in order to take him out, never fight as zerg at 200/200.

It's funny because I usually win at 200/200, haha. It's the ability to constantly replenish forces at that stage of the game I think.

Replays don't necessarily need to be linked when posting to be selected for the show. We'll request the replays after selection if they are not linked and they can be emailed or posted/linked from somewhere.
