|
JFI no sound(not even gamesounds) whatsoever on your stream ( you were asking in chat).
|
Yeah it worked when i did a couple test runs previous, i hadn't changed anything and it stopped working. ugh i took it down and am working on it now
|
You are an amazing player, I didn't even know about the hydra/infestor micro you could do against mutas, thx for the tip

great play and stream quality...the only thing i miss is game sounds..don't get me wrong..commentary is good..just add some game sounds if you ask me.. cheers..wish you luck and congrats on getting featured
|
Hey, don't know if you remember me, but congratulations on getting featured! Your strat and mechanics discussion is really good, and fun to listen to!
|
You should try to get out of the habit of clicking to build your queen
|
nice stream; like the commentary and play
|
Awesome stream - explains a lot of the thought processes on higher level Zerg play!
|
|
Nice stream. Commentary walks you through every thing he is doing.
|
Been looking for a Zerg stream, so this is great. Also a sexy quiet voice, it's like he's whispering right in my ear. Mmm bz bz bz bz
|
This guy rocks, he streamed for 11 hours straight. He's very helpful with strats and he will critique your replays if you can stomach the commentary. His voice isn't annoying, that's always a plus.
|
Ttly awesome! Sorry for the fail replay vs protoss where he just left thought this was another game.. Anyways thanks for the feedback, when i watched you going over my replays i felt pretty dumb. Learned good stuff by hanging on your stream :D Keep up the good work!
|
btw cud you state a date when you'll be live again? Don't wanna miss that! (as im in a different time zone wud be hard to catch you online just on luck.)
|
Hey nice stream!
Good luck~
|
A really good stream. Explains everything well and goes into some of the math and matchups that the average player might not think about. Definitely worth viewing!
|
can't wait for replay pack. you do some really interesting plays that i'd like to study ^^
|
No replay pack yet 
Going to have to play custom games to figure out fast lair play.
|
|
Totaly love your streeeam! <3
|
|
Registered on TL just to post here, AWESOME stream :D Best educational stream for zerg players trying to find their way.
You should try casting. Or at least co-casting, since you can be the cool quiet guy who gives the strategic input (Trump co-casted a small SC2 tournament and it was pretty fun).
My only request is mix ladder play with replay comments. And if you lose or see something interesting you didn't say, play the replay quickly and comment (of course, with your style of play and lots of comments it's often not necessary).
|
Thanks for the replay pack, looking forward to more streams & replays from you.
rockaday
|
I also registered just to say thx. I love watching you're streams. I'm looking to improve my play as a Zerg player since all my friends play Terran and Protoss. I would like to see more games of you against Protoss but thx alot for the replay pack.
|
Finally i've found the stream i was looking for !
Thanks man, really good to hear you analyse and see you play. Zerg players need some stream of players like you.
Concerning Trump, i guess people associate you to him cause you have kind of a same way to play, nice, soft and cool, not spamming and listening to hard teckno crap. ^^
I was thinking of skipping muta to go directly into infestor against Terran, i guess you show me how effective it can be. I'll definitely join the fan club here, and i'll look for more content from you. Keep it up for the swarm ! o/
|
Thank you, awsome stream. Been watching your VoDs and kinda hate you for "forcing" me to watch your VoD all night giving me like 3,5 hours of sleep.
Good job though, keep it up, I will watch the live stream whenever I can.
|
Just started watching your vods. It has been super educational for me. Thanks!
|
Love the stream, keep up the good work.
|
Great stream, pretty much my favorite stream as far as learning zerg. I got the same feeling watching his infestor use that I got when I saw dark swarm do it's magic in sc1 for the first time
|
Thanks. I'm Brian from last night's stream, and have just won a couple games, in part due to your advice. Still under 50% win rate, but learning
|
When is the next stream? :>
|
Soon(TM)
Looove your play Xizor, changed my ZvZ completely, can you even loose like this?!?
|
I really like your stuff Dice. Thanks for streaming! Looking forward to more VODs and replays since I'm usually asleep in Europe when you're having fun.

The opponent can adapt to it as well, such as breaking mutalisks into a bunch of small groups and harrassing and things like that, but small groups of mutas are counterable by small groups of hydralisks, so it's a back and forth thing.
In an unreleated note i am no longer featured (unsure as to why) and so please click the show non feautured button to see if i am streaming or go straight to my ustream bypassing TL entirely.

love your style of play!!

Lawls, Day9 daily 179, Working on his ZvT builds. First replay he looked at is a ling too infestor build and he didn't seem to understand how powerful it is against all terran harass. He just called it a funky game. He's usually so good about this stuff.
|
It Actually was a Really funky Game. Watched the replay before and it looked more like a fun Game than a serious Game. So there wasnt that much info on the general ZvT stuff.
|
Yeah, that one game was a little funky, but it's still good to note how strong infestors are.
|
|
nice man, will watch right away!
|
Thanks for the stream and replay packs.
You've led to me losing a bunch of games, but that's a good thing - I've deliberately set out to add infestors and upgraded ling aggression/CC sniping to my play rather than just going ling/bling/muta every time. Its pushed me from being stuck in the middle of my gold division to the top (and hopefully a promotion to Platinum soon, where I'll be able to learn even more).
Its also confused the hell out of a lot of my gold/platinum opponents.
|
Yesh! Second replay pack.
|
<3 dreamsailor for doing my build (sans queens) for the D9D funday monday.
|
Yay :D I'm Brian from irc, and I'll be sending you a replay when I get a half decent one. So far I'm improving, but it seems like either I hold off the push and win, hold off the push and get owned by colossi, or steamroll the guy. (Including the game where the guy took a hidden gold expo, and despite meaning to scout it never do. Just teched to ultras and lolpwnt him. But in any case, I'll send you my next close replay.
|
sup do you have a somewhat weekly schedule for your show? you're like one of my fav streamers here after goatrope and attero *thumb_up*
|
No schedule per say, but If i know i'm goign to stream i update it on ustream generally 22:00 GMT and 4:00 GMT are the times when i stream. sometimes earlier in the day (for me) like 17:00 GMT.
|
I enjoy your stream but I havent been on when you have been streaming in ages
|
Hey man, I must say that I really like your stream and i check your ustream daily for new things to watch. I'm currently struggling in mid platinum as zerg and your stream has really helped me more than anything else I've been watching. I now know what i need to do, I just have to actually remember to do it in the matches and stop messing everything up. At least i almost always know what i should've been doing afterwards, which i really didn't before i watched your stream recordings.
I have never watched you live, because of the time difference so you've never been on when I've looked. I just wanted to ask if you record and upload all your streams or just some of them, because on the ones you have there (on ustream.tv) it seems like you're streaming alot but there arent very many new recordings coming up. So basically i wanted to ask if you are just not streaming as much anymore or are you just not recording/uploading them or am I looking in the wrong place?
Thanks alot for doing these streams!
|
i've been busy for a week and a half with school travel and some technical issues. i should get back to streaming and everything as usual pretty soon.
also no problem. I record every time i remember to record the stream. but yeah lately i just have not been streaming much more than sound tests, video tests ect.
|
And you havent played and trained alot either!
|
Just watched him win a 1v1 with only infestors, no queens.. Awesome
|
|
been watching you every once and a while, keep it up man  I'll definantly tune in more often if I see u streaming
|
How did the showmatch with catz go??
|
Very good steam, very good style, and I really enjoy your in-game live comments. Keep on, great job !

Prince I need to see your stream more!
|
|
soooo... you stopped streaming ?
|
|
|
|
I'm having some technical issues! sorry guys. i'm getting them worked out, then doing my lessons for people and then i'll worry about getting streaming to work. computer has not been happy with me, and me not with it. Look for more info soon*

*Not blizzards definitition would be awesome if you would stream your lessons (if not yet possible due to tech problems, it's an idea for later)
hope you start streaming again soon!
|
Just wanted to add another voice saying they're eagerly awaiting new streams
|
Yeah, come back soon!
|
Good to hear you're still around! Will be great to see you streaming again, you were one of the reasons I changed to zerg and wanted to start streaming myself :D
|
Okay, so i fixed the tech issue, but as posted in a frustrated blog post, i'm in platinum because of some weird thing with my hidden rating (win streak +300 points, lose once, get sent to plat). and so Streaming THOSE games are really uninteresting, Though if my fans want me to stream myself playing plat players and solely working on my macro then i will i guess. :D i love you guys.
|
yeah, I'm happy to watch you play against any players. I miss your streams, please come back.
|
Def happy to see you streaming that xD
|
Okay since i've been getting alot of responses to stream regardless of the quality of my opponents i'll do so! ^^ i'm back to playing diamond players though which is good.
|
When will you stream again ? I miss you ;-)
|
Pretty soon, just getting settled in after some travel and celebrating, UCF football is ranked for the first time ever! + the best ranked team in FL.
|
I'll be streaming alot (ALOT) of sunday.

I'll try to upload replays though :D or maybe experiment with offline recording. not entirely sure yet. but i've been banned (for an opinion i posted) for a while when i WOULD have been streaming, and it doesn't let you update your stream when you are banned. but yeah sorry for the huge delay, ALOT more streaming will happen w/ the new year.
|
Okay cool man, I'm glad you're not gone for good.
Have a good Christmas dude.
|
so will the stream be coming in the next week? (or even next couple of weeks??) cant wait ^^
|
Can't wait either, i need some more infestor centered play inspiration.
|
probably next weekend. I'm adjusting to my schedule in the first week to see how much work i'll have to do, to schedule time. and once my time gets schedules, 4-5 days a week should be able to stream. 
EDIT My Headset broke when i was testing it this weekend (stepped on it, i'm an idiot) New one is ordered and should be here in the next few days, streaming will start the 21st.
EDIT EDIT: haven't played in SO long i'm really bad now lol. working on it so the quality is better for you guys.
|
just post date and time man! wanna stay up! eu times suck (
|
21st didn't happen, too much embarrassment from the crappy play. i'll try to make up for it with even better explanations and stuff, will stream saturday probably from 2:00 PM until i stop. and probably that night also. :D
|
Streaming now, sorry for the delay.
|
I miss this stream
|
Guys if infestor nerf goes live i'm going to try to learn protoss.
|
did you stream saturday? If you start streaming again make sure to save it as vod in case I miss it! You gotta stream some before infestors get nerfed then!
|
i started to stream, and then had to leave after about 10 minutes.
it wasn't worth saving the VOD for a single game.
|
Looking forward to seeing you streaming again man.. Btw I doubt that Infestor nerf will actually happen, surely not... right?
|
If infestor nerf happens I'm going to learn to perfect zerg early game all ins.
I play random so I can't just switch races.
Oh and also can't wait for them to revert fungal as a projectile. Nerf fungal like that and you may as well remove ling speed from the game so zerg can't play ling/baneling either.
|
So, you coming back now infestors got a buff?
|
well, dice stream again dude, even tho the change was no buff at all..
|
Infestor change destroyed my builds. and so i;'m learning protoss and i'll be streaming again once i get through this semester and in free time.
|
Your style of zerg with fast +1 lings and fast infestors reminds me a lot of Stephano's play at IPL3. Obviously not exactly the same since your builds were from a year ago, but very similar. I wish you'd reconsider the switch to protoss and pick zerg back up again. I greatly enjoyed your stream and different approach to zerg tactics.

well the switch to protoss lasted a few months, then i saw the swarm host <3
might have to switch back after all. but at least now i know alot more about Protoss so i'll be able to play vs them much better.
also REALLy sorry i've been trying to get back to streaming. i might just start streaming myself struggling to get back to skilled play i still have the knowledge at least. Expect big things in november from me though.
|
Dice, you tease... November has come and gone. :D
|
Yeah..... i hit a major snag. I might as well "announce" the news informally here while it's still being worked out.
OKAY! I'm going to be starting a 45 day SC2 course that i'll be repeating every couple months and updated based on changes in the game as it's played at the highest level, including patches and expansions. it'll be free to sign up and you need only commit your time.
Originally i had this hosted via an unnamed legitimate online course manager, who rejected the "educational quality" of the course one week before i announced it and started signups. So I've been scrambling to find another host, if i don't have something by the end of the month i'll be forced to host it through a blogging site, while much less than ideal will suit my needs, though require students to deal with ads on the pages for a while. There will be a BIG post in SC2 General once I've confirmed a host though.
Sorry for all the delays, dealing with educational facilities is soooo boring and time consuming.
|
PrinceXizor, do you still exist??? You playing another game??? Just curious. Always enjoyed your stuff.
|
I exist! i don't play starcraft anymore, i kinda got scammed trying to get an online tutoring thing going for starcraft years ago. all my fault really. but i quit the game a while after that. I don't stream any longer either. Mostly just doing my own thing. <3 ty for the memories though.
