I wanted to share with the community a coaching session I had with InControl today. It was a great session and I would highly recommend him as a coach. He is gracious enough to allow people to do this, so props to him.

http://livestre.am/yEJR

It's focused on my play vs zerg, hopefully it is helpful to you.

I also have the replays from the session if people are interested I can dig them out and post them somewhere as well.

Sorry for all the clicking noises during the replay, we were on skype and our mics were picking up everything apparently.

It's about 2 hours long so grab a snack and enjoy.

UPDATE 4
Now using MediaFire for hosting these, hope it works better for everyone.

yeah PvZ is my worst MU as well...only efficient build I know is the Forge FE into 5 gate timing attack with +1 attacks

other than that, I need to figure out another way to beat Zerg

Played a bunch of games afterward and I definitely felt more confident with the build he is proposing. I still need a lot more practice with it, but it is solid for sure. Doesn't rely on anything overly gimmicky or risky.

Now I need to do 2 more sessions so I can get my Protoss and Terran matchups squared away a bit better.

I am watching now to see what I can learn. Thanks for sharing!

Also, I hope that you got the 'okay' from InControl before posting this. Please don't take my comments too harshly or create a whole sub debate on what I am about to say(I am not trying to thread crap or anything), but he might view his coaching and the tips he shared with you his IP. Rebroadcasting that without his permission is, at minimum, BM.

He seems a cool enough guy and all, so I'm sure it wouldn't even be a a big deal to him. But that is all the more reason to check with him first if you hadn't already!

Thanks for sharing! It is always helpful for any level of player or future coach to watch stuff like this to see how it goes. It is a learning tool for both ends!

Thank you so much for posting these! iNcontroL is so awesome. I've learned quite a bit from watching VODs of him coaching.

Watched a little over an hour or so. Learned a ton. That Incontrol guy is pretty smart

What amazed me was in the game Incontrol played I thought he was done after those lings killed a ton of his probes lol. At least for me I would've panicked and said the game was done for me if I was in that situation, but Inc ends up Rofl stomping the guy.

Also make sure to post your next sessions!

I'm a terran player and from watching/listening to this so far, I'm actually learning quite a bit! Definitely a lot of general points that help you lean towards more of a correct mindset.

Unless there was fine print before the lessons were done, I don't see why. If anything, it would be BM for the payer to not be allowed to rebroadcast it without a notice prior to paying. He did pay for it, after all.

Khaladas: Sorry about my accidental leave during that first game, my nephew was being super obnoxious and I accidentally hit Surrender instead of Pause =(

I'm watching now just to see his commentary as I got stomped, should be interesting!
