I hope this thing takes off. I think this will be really helpful to newer players and help ease the learning curve for people like me. More videos please :D.

I just looked at some of these videos, and I have to say although I will not benefit from them I know a lot of fledgling SC2 players that haven't been exposed to as much and I think this is great, thanks!

I started in Bronze, and I would've loved to have these tips when I started playing xP

If I may make some suggestions for future topics:
+ Show Spoiler +
Beginner
• Spending energy on Nexus, Orbital Command and Queen.
• (Over)building static defence.
• Scouting for proxies.
• Control groups.
• Walling off.
• Attack and armour upgrades.

Intermediate
• Focus firing.
• Spellcaster control.
• Kiting.

Advanced
• Dropping units from a moving transport.
• Threatening and forcing.
• Feedback vs. EMP.
No, I don't want your number.

I really like the slow ff tip, it took me a lot of time to figure force fielding on my own and i do think one of the most important things is to just slow down and not even try to aim for the perfect for fields.
A good strategy means leaving your opponent room to make mistakes

Keep in mind that this is a brand new youtube channel, so if you subscribe to http://www.youtube.com/ignproleague (and thank you if you do) you won't see these videos. The reason we did that is so that people who subscribe to our main youtube channel who don't want to see videos intended for newer players won't. If you are a newer player and want to see these videos or a veteran player who might know some people who could benefit from these videos, you can subscribe to just this channel and get only that content.

Thanks everyone! We're really focused on building a large library of tips and tricks to give everyone tools to help convert their friends to SC2 fanatics!


Very well thought out. This is great for the community. Keep it up, IPL is doing amazing!

I love the newer tips better, keep money low and creep spread are so much better than "forcefield placement".
Keep it up guys!

Solid stuff, thanks !
In order to succeed, your desire for success should be greater than your fear of failure.
