Hello there fellow forum folks!

I'm quite new to SC2, been playing some in season 1 but never really committed to the game and thus, I was stuck with doing three rax all-ins ...

Anyway, that was in the past and now I have a lingering feeling that I want to play this game for real! Want to learn new strategies, improve my gameplay and maybe even learn to macro!

So! Even tho I have not been playing much SC2 I been following the community, watching some big events ( Dreamhack woho! <3 ) and the magnificent Starcraft ambassador, Mr Sean Plott! What I understood his dailies are full with goodies, happy-fun-time and loads of good tips for beginners and players who want to improve in general.

My question then; Where should I begin to watch the dailies? I have googled abit and found that its around 315 dailies and well .. I have a hard time to choose where I should start watching? I could of course start from #1 but the wast amount of time I have to put into just watching dailies is mind-boogeling.

Any input from you guys is much appreciated!
Thank you!

There are a couple I'd recommend to watch first, in order:

252 - Secrets of Hotkeys, APM, and Mouse Movement

257 - Refining Mechanics

261 - Mechanics #2

there is a daily which helped me a TON as i was new to RTS then. i think its #132 "The mental Checklist"

http://blip.tv/day9tv/day-9-daily-132-back-to-the-basics-the-mental-checklist-3751430

there are many dailys that have precious informations in it but a simple title that doesnt give it away so just look every daily :D

I think everyone needs to start at 100, it will get you so motivated to go pro

Start with Daily #100, and you'll be playing this game for the rest of your life.

Then search the Dailies based on the race you're playing.

And then this:

I would also suggest looking at the dailies he has done on the race you want to do. Newbie tuesdays are always really good. I have gone from a bad bronze to an ok gold league player mostly cause of probes and pylons. Even when he is doing a offrace cast of some type there are often nuggets of strategy and such in there

EDIT:

here is the probes and pylons newbie tuesday number one:

Wow .. The #100 was really touching! You guys where right, if Day[9] can't teach me this game, no one can!

Thanks again for the tips on episodes, I will continue to watch those that you have listed, for starters!

Day is a baws. Start with 100. And then go through the Newbie Tuesdays. The Mechanics episodes you'll want to watch more than once because there are many different tips that it will take time for you to learn.

When you get tired of learning and want a break...watch any Funday Monday or his Team Monobattles he does with subscribers. Always funny and slightly educational

I think that the opinion on #100 vastly differs in correlation with the general affinity to the "talking head" format of a given person.

There is a transcript of the daily that I read and it was really interesting. But to actually listen to it for like what, two hours? Guess you can try anyway, its free (and if you don't like it, find the transcript, it just .. tells so much!). But if you don't like it, don't be discouraged, the other dailies are much more informative, as to the actual game.

You play Terran, you don't need to watch the Dailys, Terran is cruise control for easy mode

#132 - The Mental Checklist
#289 - Refining A Build
Those two are just awemazingly helpful as they don't just say "you have to do blah when blah happens". They are more like tools to improve your play imo.
