Looking for a Protoss Coach!

Name.Character Code: thuNdERFist.109
Server: NA
Race: Protoss
League: Gold
What you are hoping to achieve: Diamond
Time you're free to learn: With the advent of summer, 2-4 pm
Brief description about you: I'm terrible at this game, I play briefly and I'm not used to playing 10+ games in a day (tried it before, ends up in a losing streak for God knows why), and based off the low amount of games I've played, hardly more than a 300 total and even less of that as Protoss, I also know that I need to work on playing multiple hours in a row. I have a fairly laggy computer >_> This will be fixed by July though, so hopefully no worries lol. My worst matchup is PvP and my best is PvT, and I generally get really frustrated upon series of losses (screaming curse words lol). Online almost every day.

Looking for a coach.

Name.Character Code: aQua.521
Server: EU
Race: Protoss
League: Diamond
What I'm hoping to achieve: ability to understand the game and analyze matches, what should I do and stuff... I can't figure it on my own somehow. I don't need specific in-game coaching, mechanics and stuff I can improve on my own, just few pointers where and how should I start to improve and solidify my play. Probably I'm missing some obvious things, but I'd be thankful if someone pointed it out for me.
Time I'm free to learn: that unfortunately depends, but currently from 7-8 in the morning to like 14:30 ^^' (playing), available almost all days to talk/analyze reps and stuff.
Brief description about me: I'm just a frustrated Protoss.

Hey I'm not sure if this is alright but I'm gonna make another post here since my credentials have changed since my original post (I'm in masters now for example)


coach:
---------------------------------
Name.Character Code: nickyboy.357
Server: NA
Race: Zerg
League: Masters

Experience coaching If any: I've coached a few lower level players all have said it helped them a lot (sorry no real evidence other than my word but idk lol) I am giving out free coaching to whoever wants it and I have a youtube page in which I post analytical casts (mostly zerg) here: http://www.youtube.com/user/nickyboy909 It's just getting started but I plan to continue for as long as possible

Range of players willing to coach: Any but will probably be more helpful for diamonds and below.
Time you're free to coach: I just got off of school so I'll be free almost every day at almost any time. I live in EST time zone so I'll probably be sleeping around 12-8 or so that time but other than that I can totally coach any time.

Brief description about you: I'm a master level zerg player who just recently got into casting. I can provide free coaching and help to whoever is in need. I'm trying to get my name out there as a caster and a player which i realise will take some work just trying to build a bit of a base with the free coaching. I really enjoy helping others imrpove and would love to see the progress of one of my students. If you are interested in recieving my coaching or just have any questions just contact me on here or on youtube. I'll answer all questions in the next youtube video (I make at least 1 per day) so stay tuned

Playstyle: I specialize in improving at all points in the game. I rarely take risks and I absolutely despise coinflip builds (builds that straight up lose to another build) A solid example of one of these builds is the hatch first in zvz (blind). If you go hatch first blind and your opponent decided to 10pool and pulls drones... you're dead. there's no way to hold off that kind of early pool if you hatch first. Im more okay with some one 10pooling every game vs zerg than someone 15hatching every game. This is because 10pool will put you behind vs a 14-14, BUT you can do enough damage to stay in the game a lot of the time. I do like to hatch first in every other matchup though. I believe canon rushes are easily defendable off of hatch first and the threat of them is no reason to hurt your economy by going pool first.

Anyway sorry for the wall of text I just want to get practice talking and explaining myself so i can be a better caster and a better coach so message me if you want coaching or have any questions whatsoever. thanks.

Range of players willing to coach: Bronze - Low Masters
Time you're free to coach: Whenever you can catch me online
Brief description about you: My coaching method is very simple: first of all, I always prepared before me a blank piece of paper. In the first hour or possibly two I analyze my students gameplay. I'm analyze my students micro, macro, build orders, when and where my students are fighting against each unit compositions race. I'm also analyze in game transitions after the fighting. Later on ofc, I'm going to show my students the best build orders (couple) against each race. Ofc I prefer macro games, but I can show some pushes or even cheese.
My smartest student went from Gold to Master in 7 hours with me (2 days) ;-)


If you are intrested in my coaching please just msg. me in game.



Dont believe this guy. There is no way you can look to go up three leauges in two days. Stating his acomplishments and sayinh he was gm i dont believe this guy.... Talk to me for coaching instead if you want a real sc2 coach. Ps he isint on sc2ranks.

Just finished a coaching session with Nick wanted to say thank you for your help. Really helpful guy!!

Coaching session started with him observing me play and playing natural against easy A.I. to see what mistakes I was making was able to identify areas I needed to improve on. Wasn't a drill sergeant approach but listened to my questions and gave good incite. Session was about an hour and a half which was really good. We talked over all the match ups, talked about unit composition, gas timings, when to expand and take 3rd or 4th or 5th base,when to make units and when to drone. Everything I was looking for in a coaching session.

Definitely recommend Nick and looking forward to future sessions.

League: Platinum
What you are hoping to achieve:Remain at the platinum level,get a better understanding of the terran race and eventually climb my way to diamond.
Time you're free to learn: Whenever there's a coach willing to help!
Brief description about you: I've been playing a lot of Z the last 2 seasons and I've been advancing relativly fast but now I've started to get bored with Zerg and I've always found the Terran playstyle interesting. Mainly because of all the multitasking, dropping everywhere and the wide variety of builds. Also every matchup seems to play out very different from each other.
Hopefully there's someone out there ready to help me get into the terran race!

What you are hoping to achieve: i would like just to get a bit better in general in zvp, as i can't get how this matchup works in any way. sometimes i win screwing up a lot, others everything's working wonderful and i just get rolled. my zvt is quite fine, i win most of the games. i just don't play zvz
Time you're free to learn: from half afternoon to evening, i'm available.
Brief description about you: i played protoss the first three seasons, reached mid diamond. then stopped playing on ladder because of ladder anxiety (yeah, i'm one of them :D) and got back on it only this winter, changing race to zerg. but now i'm stuck at gold, not actually being able to recognize where i'm doing wrong (otherwise i wouldn't ask for a help).
