    I think a very simple but very effective improvement you could make to these videos is including at least the replay of you against the AI in the description. I'm sure it would help a lot of people, including me, because then it would be possible for us to be in control of observing the replay to figure out the minute things like what probes build what that isn't necessarily shown by you or things like how some things should time out.

    I wonder when you will start making easy winning buildguides for Terran and Zerg, as you will know best by your recent experiences from getting grandmaster with stupid races, which builds are easy to do for a 'lower level' player and which are easier!

    Btw in the "for real" low tiers (Plat-Diam) Zerg will 99% of the times try to stomp your base with early pools or building a Hatchery in your main (spawn a Nidus asap in other cases).

    Hi, new Protoss player here, can someone explain how his warp prism control is so clean. I noticed he has it bound to 9 and it's not in the main army group. It's like he has a thought that it's time to warp in more stalkers in the middle of the heat of battle and they are instantly being warped in. For me, I would fumble around to find the control group the warp prism is on, then hit the warp button and even my warp in is slower. How does he do all of this so quickly? Any explanation would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

      He uses rapid fire to warp in lots of units
      The rest is just practice and getting used to the hot keys

      Find what works best for you
