Hey guys,
I'm currently Top 16 GM in Americas and I'd like to share a couple of my replays against top players such as Suppy, gowser, Stephano, Nony, Kane, etc. I'm from Argentina, and SC2 is a bit hard for us people living down here . Hopefully this will help get my name out there to the world.
Replay pack link: http://www.mediafire.com/?ejie5t1u5luffxz
The replay pack contains about 40~ replays. My playstyle is aggressive, includes lots of timing pushes/all ins and some macro games, and of course, some fruiting considering the game came out a few weeks ago.
Media stuff:
Facebook fan page: https://www.facebook.com/capoch.ar Please check it out and drop a like if you enjoyed the games 
Twitter: https://twitter.com/capoch_esports
You can check my stream here: http://es-es.twitch.tv/iamcapoch I'm gonna start streaming often soon, just gotta work out a couple of things with my schedule but I'm considering hopefully soon to be streaming often during the night (Argentina time).
TL fan club: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=200944 (this is pretty old from 2010 I think, guess it's been forever forgotten, could use a revamp!).
I hope you enjoy the reps, and comments are always welcome :D

Capoch!!! Sup man, haven't seen u since WoL beta.
I'll peep your games.
|
Cheers for the pack; out of curiosity, are you the guy that used to go Wyverns in almost every matchup in WC3? I might be thinking of someone else.
|
nice, will check them out later
|
loved you in age of empires 2, will check it out
|
L_Clan_Capoch! I remember your name from war3 like 10 years ago, thanks for the replay pack
|
Thank you so much for these. I've been having some issues with PvZ and your replays have been inspiring me to try out your 2 base builds.

Nah, I'm not. I used to play Night Elf in WC3

Capoch from AoC? Awesome.
Wonder how many of the old school AoC players play SC2?

I think i played you a lot before right?

i was hoping for a demonstration reaction to different builds on different scenarios, and I was also looking for how to deal with terran mid game harassment and zerg late game army.
out of all your games none has gone into late game, in fact i don't even see one game you actually took a 3rd, every game it's a 2 base timing or one base timing, that's all it takes to get into top 16gm, i don't believe it, where's the rest of your replays? you are hiding your real strategies. There are enough ppl in GM ladder that will not die to any of these timing builds for me to think you must make it up there with a one two punch that kept them guessing.

No he's not hiding strategies that's how he plays on ladder.

To be honest, going on 3 bases vs terran is pretty hard, their mid game with super fast drops just destroys you in most maps. I'm waiting for a nerf on medivacs to play more macro games vs terran. PvP is a bit hard to get on 3 bases, most games consist in 1 base or 2 bases. PvZ is mostly 3+ bases, thats pretty standard now, and I the replay pack mostly I picked it up randomly, remembering a couple of games only.

There once was a player called Ruff He showed getting GM was quite tough He'd allin every game, as he hath no shame You'd blind counter that shit and: good game Oh, that's what you'd think, but to my surprise It's those players that are my demise
Keep in mind that in HotS it's difficult to get a deef of exactly how some of these allins are countered as the game is still new, so cheese is very prevalent in GM at the moment. Hopefully GSL will quell some of this as the metagame develops.

Honestly...I watched all your games and it could be summarized with: 2base all-ins every match (PvZ and PvT) because those where you took a third you all lost if I remember correctly (2-3 games maybe in the whole pack)....and didnt bother watching PvP...nice pack tho...gave me good ideas for all-ins I could perform on friends or maybe ladder when I want a quick game but well...once the meta stabilizes and the guides begins popping on the forum...I don't see how you will be able to stay in GM...sorry mate! To me a cheeser does'nt belong in the GM.

this shit has nothing to do with meta, most of the stuffs this guy uses are one time use only, one should not lose to the same thing again after seeing it once, there is no secondary build that has a opening looks exactly alike but require a drastically different response to defend it. Which means people in GM have bad memory and doesn't remember his name every time they play him or they are not that good, and still die to him knowing a timing attack is coming.
and stop using the term all in, he didn't put everything in, if it were all in he would pull every single probe and have ALL his shit that can move IN the attack. Besides, depend on how much damage he dealt with the attack, the game could still be even and would proceed into mid game after the hold.
and finally, notice I never said anything negative toward this player? all i said was I am disappointed that I don't got to learn some of the stuffs i want to learn. It still takes good execution and planning to do timing attacks, just like it takes skills to defend it without knowing it's coming, because you need a build that is able to adapt to anything random timing attack out there.
When one don't respect timing attacks they will not take their time to practice fighting it because they think it's a gimmick and can easily be stop next time. But the fact is the guy who does these timing attacks all the time have a lot of practice on the execution but on the other hand the guy who looks down on it doesn't, so when even when they know it's coming they still fuck up on the execution of defending it. Who's fault is it that they keep getting cheese by the same guy? Ithis is part of the reason why foreigners keep getting own by koreans, disrespecting the game they are playing like this guy http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=88342

Not a problem was just letting the guy know that you weren't hiding anything and that's just how you play ^_^.

Yeah man, he should go for the Artosis 1 hour 30 minute tempest/HT/mass cannons every single game because performing all-ins is for bad players /s
on a more serious note, keep up the good work Capoch. If you win you win; it's the opponent's fault for not reacting to a specific build and countering it.

shouldnt be getting so much flak...for those who havent played much high masters+ in the first year or two of SC2, Capoch was always near the top/in GM.. Hes not a one hit wonder. I've played him probably 20 times back in 2011 when I was up there too. He'll be able to stay high masters/low GM once the meta "stabilizes" as you say.
