I have a request that only someone of your caliber can even attempt to fulfill. a ZvZ strategy that you are able to take a fast third. Idra takes a super fast third when you play him and i would like for you to explain how that works. It baffles me greatly, he takes a fast third without roaches or banes sometimes when i am watching his stream, and he would have won that game if he didnt just have the worst engagements i have ever seen. Thank you very much, i watch ever week and i seriously can not get enough! you guys are the best

it doesn't really work. It's a stupid decision on IdrA's part in that game. If David goes all in the game is over, he was just being nice. We can certainly talk about the right times to take a fast third, but that wasn't it. Take a third to get more ahead basically; if you're not ahead, taking a third is a huge risk to try to catch back up. If you get caught, gg. You simply MUST scout to know if you're ahead.

Like others have said, the Polt/Stephano analysis was fantastic. Thanks guys.

fast 3rd is a tounting move, sometimes it can be used smartly to outright win the game, you make fast 3rd forcing opponent to allin or play from behind, in some positions on some maps forcing an allin is advantegeus for you(if you know its coming)

Stephano vs Lucky on metalopolis from IPL 3 as reference.

Yep! Usually it's more safe to do this with some kind of tech, like a baneling nest or a roach warren. Esp if you have no idea what tech your opponent put down.

"To the guy that said the music at the start is stupid - FUCK YOU"

I almost spat out my breakfast cereal laughing. Keep going with the cheesy music and the pre-game banter, it's perfect as it is. <3

You were talking about THIS friday, right? aka yesterday.

:D

EDIT: I realise that my TL post time indicates I am posting on Sunday, but here in the UK (in the 'proper' timezone) it is still gloriously Saturday (which means Friday IS, in fact, still 'yesterday'). I do understand the days of the week (honest); I do not need to watch that Rebecca Black song again.

Would I be able to request an episode focusing on defending 2base stargate play? Personally, I have a lot of difficulty with giving up map control for voids/phoenix, and feel that it sets me pretty far behind :/

Ok, the links are fixed.

I usually update the thread while the videos are uploading to YouTube. In Canada that takes me all night with a 1.75 mbps upload speed.
