Do you really need to make a new thread for each new video of the same concept you release? Why can't you just put them all in one thread and update the thread?

Life is a pure talent, no doubt. He just needs to get a bit more experience and he'll be super strong like he was in late 2012/ beginning 2013 every time.
Once again, thanks so much for this Khaldor and for all your doing for us! Keep it up for our biggest pleasure!

I feel Innovation is more "clean" whereas Life is more "fuck this I'll do everything". I believe it is also because if you hotkey your hatchery one by one as a zerg, it is like location hotkey.

There's not even close to as much reason to do that for zerg. When you have your queen or your hatch hotkeyed individually, it's much easier to just use that to jump between bases

Hehe life changed his hotkeys. In WoL he used to use 3 for hatch 4567 for queens and 1 2 for army but i guess he needs an extra one for swarmhost/viper usage now

I'm guessing it also has to do with him getting older and his hands getting bigger where before he had trouble using the further to the right hotkeys now its fine.

Qpad MK-50 or MK-80 (blue lights) or same keyboard by a different company (rebranded) with blue switches.

Yea i noticed it too, this might have caused his little ''slump'' in the last 2-3~ months. Cause if you change a hotkeysetup, you used for like 3 years, even if it is just this little thing, it can mess a lot with your gameplay, till you get fully used to it again.
I guess he will be soon a topzerg again

He's actually not as fast as I thought he would be with his level of micro. In terms of absolute speed the famous Nada video would be pretty fast.
There is no such thing is "e-sports". There is Brood War, and then there is crap for nerds.

notice how he repeatedly moves drones from his main to his 3rd as the mineral patches deplete

a lot of zergs will transfer all drones once the patches are almost all gone but life's taking it a step further

also interesting to notice is that he doesn't hotkey the eggs but this he is obviously not alone in doing

Tesoro, Qpad or Ione X-armor, blue switches. Those are all the same keyboard, just rebranded.

What kind of graphic setting does Life use? It looks really well.

Do I have to change things in my folder to get these type of graphics?

Two things to considder

This video is better quality than innovations video, we see the screen alot better, i have no reason why but u probably know why, something to considder

And second, if you could try somehow to let us see it from lifes angle abit better? Hard as hell probably but could work with another camera or something?

Am I blind or does he not use camera hotkeys at all only separate queen hotkeys? Also he does not appear to hotkey eggs in general although at one point he did do it, so he must do it sometimes when he feels its appropriate?

With another angle I would disturb him during the play. The idea with a second camera is cute but I don't think you realize that I do all of this by hand and on my own. So I don't have the option of using a second camera to change angles this much.

The visibility of the screen comes due to the lighting at the location afaik, therefore I can't change that unfortunately

I wonder if his pinky sticking out on his mouse hand is some kind of conscious technique to know where it is on the pad or something or if its just something that feels comfortable for him. Stupid I know lol, it just "stuck out" to me.

What kind of graphic setting does Life use? It looks really well.

Do I have to change things in my folder to get these type of graphics?

It sure is medium or higher graphics settings.

Wow, he really does not use HP bars on enemy units? How does he micro then, wtf?

He uses the "selected" option for health bars, also he does press ALT to quickly check health bars of everything on the screen.

These are really interesting; danke! Would be nice to know what dpi these guys use.

Considering the purple light on the zowie mico, it's 800 dpi.

Thanks for these videos and keep up the good work, Khaldor.

My hands/arm are actually not the problem, the much bigger issue is that after you record a few of those videos you back starts to hurt quite a bit because of the weird postures you get stuck in

Are tripods/stands of some sort out of the question?


I have a small stand that I use for blog videos, the problem is that with a stand I'll never be able to get the good angles and capture the most and keyboard properly

The sickest thing in this video is the (patented) ling micro at around 9:10 :D

Thanks so much for this. I really enjoyed the other APM videos, but Life is one of my favorite players to watch so seeming him play like this is really amazing!

the ling micro was off the planet.

@ Khaldor, I had an idea, not sure if you have the replays of the games but if you did Then you could have footage of the game and the keyboard edited in on the side if you know what I mean, more work but would be pretty cool.

Anyone care to explain the Artosis's pinky joke?

notice how he repeatedly moves drones from his main to his 3rd as the mineral patches deplete

a lot of zergs will transfer all drones once the patches are almost all gone but life's taking it a step further

also interesting to notice is that he doesn't hotkey the eggs but this he is obviously not alone in doing


Really, they do? I transfer them gradually and thought most decently skilled players did that as well.

Interesting how he plays with HP bars only upon selection. BW style XD

Blizzard should reduce the height size of status bars (I have found 4 -- down from 7 -- to be good.). It gets obnoxious sometimes, especially since units clump.

I wonder if his pinky sticking out on his mouse hand is some kind of conscious technique to know where it is on the pad or something or if its just something that feels comfortable for him. Stupid I know lol, it just "stuck out" to me.

I do the exact same thing and it is not concious thing, its just most mice dont seem to have a good place to rest my pinky so it kinda just sticks out like in the video.

Yeah, one of my friends does the same thing. My friend also twitches his pinky sometimes, too. Just habit, nothing more.

Haha, thought it would be a nice touch to add that in the background. Helps to cover those background noises at the venue as well
