im 23-7 in my last 30 games and am facing all top diamond/masters MMR guys (hard to tell cause of ladders being bugged... gotta check the Mh of some of the high D guys but many of them are just straight masters)

waiting for the 15 game losing streak. who's excited?

after my massive tilt fest the other night, i studied some day9 stuff, looked at my replays and had gospy, dingo and pwn sweat me a bit.

changes ive made:

-not missing injects
-macro hatches (helps for missing injects)
-droning much harder earlier on (learning timings to do this)

zvt:

-make lots of ****ing drones
-make lots of ****ing mutalisks
-make lots of ****ing banelings
-win

zvz:

MAP DEPENDENT. was a huge thing for me to learn. im going speedling expand on any map with a wide open nat into roach/ling unless i think villain looks vulnerable, then i go ling/bling all-in on them. if they are greedy at all, im good at seeing it and killing them.

zvp:

timings
drones
drones
drones
harass/deny third
cheese on ****ty maps

You may think there's no way to make 10 overseers in one army cost effective in a very tight game.

YOU. THINK. WRONG.

BEHOLD:

just a thought, what's the fastest reasonable timing to get an overseer with speed upgrade?

I'll work it out in a few minutes...I'd guess 7-8 minutes.

Ran it a few times using hatch first builds, fastest reasonable/standard (ling speed before lair, a few lings, two queens) result was 7:45. Maybe some gas-first build would work better.

win or lose, there's pretty much nothing i enjoy more than cheesing stunna. i cheesed him in a variety of tasty ways for 4 straight games on shattered temple yesterday, but this is by far my fav anti-stunna cheese:

stunna vs Karak on MLG Shattered Temple


Spoiler:
best part was that I was on Skype with pwn...
pwn: is there a reason you have all those OLs drifting towards stunna's base?
karak: yes
pwn: what the hell are you doing?
karak: i have something a little special planned

nm then. Was wondering about contaminating early T tech-labs to slow stim timing pushes. Prob still useful vs FE builds.

I don't really follow the SC community other than watching a few tourneys and Day[9], but there's some hot_bid guy (I guess from the TL forums?) I saw on some SC2 videos streaming Portal right now on justin.tv. Hoooooly ****, he is by far the worst Portal player I have ever seen. Stream currently has 1300+ viewers, and it's hilarious. For anyone interested:

Stream link

TL forum thread link

Apologies if this isn't the proper thread, but I didn't see a "random ****" thread in the SC2 forum.

EDIT: He just got to GLaDOS, so the stream's probably almost over. But there should be archived video on his page after it's done.

Hot bid is an admin on TL.

I was watching that stream earlier, definitely piqued my interest. But then I decided I'm happier with the money I would have to spend on the games.

nothing like losing a ZvZ to an opponent that you are way better than just because you didn't feel like macroing

yeah, those parodies got crap after the banelings one, which wasn't as good as the tik-tok brood war parody
