Yay new stuff. Still not sure why you guys don't get many views but it's definitely not a lack of quality or good content. I'd blame your PR and marketing team.

I'm on my phone right now will watch these tonight!!! Seriously though you guys are awesome. David is a amazing player. You guys need more exposure. Maybe hold a open tournament perhaps.

I mean David beat Symbol you know what kind of hype that would generate if it was more widely known that David plays at that level! Maybe start streaming or stream a episode. I just wish you guys had more views you really deserve it.

Oh and thanks for uploading your knew PvT style too! Can't wait to watch.

wow on that stoic 10pool hold.

few questions: what if he drops the spines only once the lings and drones are there? you can't engage at that point so you run and your queen finishes a bit before the spine or spines... then you would have to engage spines with your lings and try to fight without the queen, hopefully with your drones luring him away from spines? or is the hidden spine the only version you have to watch for and the version where he plops two spines and defends those not an issue?

Hi this is David,

This 10 pool hold that I have invented is, at best, 40-60 in favour of the 10 pooler. There will always been a ton of factors that can contribute to the 10 pooler winning, such as lucky engagements or lucky map scouts. The key is to get 1 spine up, which will finish in time with the queen.

Thanks for the response. I was under the impression that the stoic hold was something like 80% success against 10pool, but I guess that was a little too hopeful of me.

How would you put the chances of the nestea anti-10pool? Roughly equal to the stoic hold?

nestea's 10 pool is 70/30 in favor of the 10 pool. We're about 60/40 atm.

This is fucking awesome, keep it up, guys.
Starcraft 2 is funny, everybody picks the race, which he considers to be the weakest. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

David thanks again for the 10 pool/drone all in hold. it is actually insane and it blew my mind i am going to try it a ton tomorrow. Also i like posting my progress from your videos i have been watching since episode 1.

On saturday on June 23 i played at a local tourney and was able to get first place! i play super standard straight up games, it is like making a huge checklist for each match up and depending on what the other player is doing you either go greedier or safer. Everything you have said i have remembered and i was able to end last season as a 1100 point masters player. Thank you guys so much it is actually insane the progress, the season before last i was diamond.

oh yea i won a keyboard a mouse and a back pack almost like 300 dollars worth of stuff!!!! ^^ you guys are the best i wish i could somehow make a huge impact on the amount of viewers you guys have because i feel it is only fair for the impact you guys have had on me. Thanks again!

-edit forgot to mention you guys look great no homo.

awesome videos, every zerg player should watch it!!!!!!!!!!

It was way better pre-edit.

On the subject of viewers, I think it's just a matter of audience--anyone below diamond-ish doesn't really "feel" the weight of the little tells and tricks, e.g. scouting natural gas count in ZvP, because it actually is meaningless at lower levels. This might explain the spike in views on the mechanics vid, because so many more players either feel or have been told repeatedly about, the importance of mechanics in their play.

So my take is that you guys either widen your scope (which David will probably hate) or just continue as is, knowing that diamond/masters zerg players for whom your insights are (supremely) useful may be your only long-term audience.

Or sell analysis. I think I'd pay $5-10 for you guys to look through a handful of my replays and tear me a new one, either without the effort of making it a finished vod, or as a vod if you want it as content. Undoubtledly there are a few of us who would love the chance to have a GM player critique our play, so if you're ever bored of casting David's games, that's another type of content you might want to consider.

Hey guys, complexity academy is recruiting for all you Masters guys out there. David and I are the casters for the Academy, so just an FYI that you need to get your video applications in for a great opportunity!
