It's ok to say to yourself "oh shit, I'm get 4-gated", and to make your normal reaction... The thing about 4 gate, though, is that if that attack doesn't come relatively quickly, you'll know he's up to something else. So if it looks like 4 gate, but he never attacks, and he never expands, he's obviously teching. It might sound a little strange at first, but as you play against this stuff more and more, you'll develop a feel for it... In either case, even if you're blind until you see the phoenixes, you should still be ok. There's no reason to not get 3 queens these days, and once the phoenixes are shown, you can continue with queen production while adding a spore or two to each mineral line, droning heavily, and hitting your normal mid-game. Just don't freak out and make a bunch of hydras. Toss is trying to dictate your mid-game tech so that he can hard-counter it with colossi. Stick to your roach/corruptor foundation, and you should be able to come out ahead. I've started doing this and it's definitely easier to deal with whatever toss opens up with, thanks. There's still a few things that are giving me trouble, like when they get voids with a 3gate push instead of phoenixes, but I don't think it's that complicated to figure out. I know it's not part of the metagame anymore, but will you be touching on the subject of forge first into offensive cannon? Most protosses I face don't do it right so it's easily dealt with but when it's done right I feel like it's unstoppable. | ||

Catz! That guy was awesome, I really liked his approached the game, he didn't let any preconceived notions hold him down. Sheth was also awesome! I didn't know what to expect but I was very impressed after watching. He was doing things that even Mr Bitter thought were impossible. I was just VERY impressed by this guy (I know I said that twice, that's how impressed I was ). I havent watched StrifeCo yet, I just watched the session with Keyboard, that was hilarious. I also like whenever iNcontroL is on. Anyway keep up the great work! | ||

I don't think there has been a single person on who hasn't taught me something huge. I think this stream is just as important to zerg players as Day[9] is to SC2 players is generally, if not more. way more IMO and I like day[9] a lot, but this stream is much more specific and at a much higher level in general. | ||
