What about the game settings? Is there something I should worry about, that you would consider essential or important?
@@meunomeerique Good question! When you're just starting out, none of the settings are essential to change. But these are my recommendations:
In the "Gameplay" options, I recommend making sure "Display Build Grid" is ON, and I also suggest that "Enable Simple Command Card" should be turned OFF, and "Show Flyer Helper" should be set to ALWAYS. I also prefer to set "Control Groups" to Unclickable (so that you can't click the icon on the screen by mistake and accidentally select the wrong units).
Good luck and have fun! :)
@@Altercate Okay! Thanks :)
1:49 Starcraft II has 3 racist? :(
@@krioni86sa 🤣
I can't believe a channel with ~300 subscribers is making videos of this quality
Thank you so much for your kind words :)
spot on
Amazing quality
Subs shouldn't be a factor of ones channel's to determine content quality. I've seen some amazing music producers who produce on high professional levels and their channel's only have under 1000 subs.
Agreeing and commenting for algorithms
If you've got an understanding of the game, but are looking for Multiplayer fundamentals this is a very helpful video. The narrator speaks clearly and thoughtfully. He isn't just "Winging it." You can tell they cared about the video and put effort in. Great stuff.
Thank you so much! 😍
“Stop playing against the AI go against real people. It’s all about the mind games.”
Ohh so that’s why he kept calling me a retard over and over again. It was all SCII mind games™ lol
Can't lose if your opponent leaves the game first 🤣
Meanwhile @32:32 he tells us to practice by playing a custom game against very easy AI...
BUT I follow his line of thinking: to win, you have to destroy the enemy base. Easiest and surest way to destroy bases is to build a big army faster than your opponent. Fastest way to build a big scary army (mind games!) is to have a macro that is more efficient than your enemy’s.
@@evshrug Plus the idea of the AI match isn't to practice beating the AI, just to work on the execution of your macro cycle in relative peace. The problem is when you start building bad strategic/planning habits around the AI when humans can easily work around it. So it's a good space to work on your own habits, but a bad idea to try and learn actual competitive tactics.
@@Kazmahu Exactlyyyy! I never play AI to practice strategy, but rather, so practice the fundamentals without the natural anxiety I get whenever I play ranked.
The amount of video editing and visuals added to help explain is superior to all video tutorials I have seen on youtube for sc II. Awesome job, thank you for the work you put into making a quality video.
Thank you so much! It means a lot to me to hear that! 😍
This playlist is the best thing that i could find as a beginner player
Thank you so much! Good luck with the game :)
Fr there is literally nothing else I can find on TH-cam, nothing that spoon feeds it to me anyway and that's what I need when starting something form scratch
@@ghosttheripper8656 Thank you! 😊
Noice
I thought this channel had like 100k. The quality of this video is insane. Keep up the good work!
Thank you so much, you just made my day :)
this actually really good
I remember when I was younger and played StarCraft 2 without understanding a lot of things. Now everything seems so simple and easier to understand. I have evolved.
Im in the same boat. I think my dad's blizzard account is as old as I am and I mindlessley played it alot as a child. I'm finally getting ahold of things.
The nostalgia is real! I played StarCraft 1 when it was still new. I just downloaded it again last week and now StarCraft 2. So, here I am.
This is THE video I have been looking for; one that explains the game using the foundational RTS mechanics. As soon as you talked about balancing "producing workers, avoiding supply block and spending your money", I had to hit the like button, because even though I suck at RTS games in general, I know that these things are the top three things that you need to do consistently before you can even play a coherent game.
I find RTS really punishing for this very reason: you can't even enjoy the "strategy" part until you are fast enough to stay on top of the "real time" part, i.e. being efficient with your macro.
I hope that I can get over this hump someday, because I really want to enjoy the depth of strategy and replayability that RTS games offer.
Thank you for your kind words! I totally agree, and you hit the nail on the head in saying that you have to master the real-time component before you can even think about the strategy component. StarCraft is a harder game than most to *enjoy*, but once you get there, it's amazing.
I'm glad you liked the video and I wish you all the best in your StarCraft journey! Let me know if there's any particular concept you'd want me to expand on in future videos!
It's been 3 years, any better?
Thank you! It was very helpful. Getting into StarCraft in 2022 feels very intimidating, but interesting an challenging. Your guide was exactly what I was looking for
Glad I could help! It’s an intimidating game for sure, but well worth the effort! :)
Bro tell me about it
I see where you'r coming from. To make it short, I don't think it's very intimidating. I always read the same in each of the 1000s of games I had installed and played, let me say simply "don't expect to be a pro right away" it's that simple of a life: *Accept that you are a newb and enjoy it!* To get to the point: So the solution is don't play vs veterans (system default). It makes for bad habits. Because you won't win fights = no training in micro much. (because when you lose army quickly there isn't much to control, is there) You won't survive your overall game long or get a grounded experience base build etc because of several impairments through the enemy... = no macro training much, and unrealistic balance picture in your head respectively. You could coinflip but it doesn't make for fun experiences when luck fails you. (otherwise it's still ok)
Play vs AI for good habits actually . Particularly when you start out, or when you want to improve a certain skill, I got my terran bio++ micro from that fairly quickly like 10x(!) faster than in ladder games! (bc when in ladder anything goes wrong.. then your training has to be restarted basically... it's frankly said a stupid approach - for the begin that is. Use your brain. And btw also lots of the macro mechanics don't need another player AT ALL. For the thrill and still training try to play custom games vs players of equal or slightly higher skill (try to befriend them when you notice, not everyone is salty, hell even a salty "RE" can be useful, your choice). Increase difficulty over time which comes automatically. There are so many nice ways to play the game, team games, custom games, some modifications which are close to ladder or also monobattles or fast build can be a nice fun alternative from time to time to improve your mechanics and speed and awareness. And spontaneous thinking which IMO is so vital, because in ladder anything can happen. Then you won't be one of those that say "but you should have played unit x!!" Q_Q or "but your mutas should have arrived 1 minute earlier!" (he moved out) ...
By the way: I don't say don't play vs pros at all, a single training game or a random game somewhere can be eye-opening when you watch the replay. But that's for discovery and checking what you learned, not for building habits.
Ladder:
- When you are new to ladder, you should lose your first 5 placement matches intentionally, or even 10. Because the system puts you to about platinum by default. Note: I say it as a one time thingy. You will then rise according to your skill.
Another tip, never pay attention to your enemy complaining about you - it's really just salt and copium 95% of time, such as "oh that's an annoying strategy" "damn cheeser" or "can you play normal?!", the game's beauty is its diversity and you finding your favorite playstyle, multitasking and impairing your enemy can be as fullfilling as macroing. IMO the most fun is to try different things and sometimes it being quite trolly things, but in the end they will improve your perception of those units by miles, ultimately improving your "normal" play. But that normal play consists of so many small skills. So all in all just have fun exploring the different aspects of the game, and it's more fun to try that in your lower leagues :-)
- Still in ladder, despite it being a warzone, try to focus on what you want to improve. Honestly that is sometimes harder than said in today's state of the game, because of what enemies can come up with and it taking all your attention, but still a good approach IMO.
- And again if you don't want to waste your time simply ignore bad manner right away, people always try to find excuses for their fails by blaming anyone else's way, no matter what you will say. It's honestly miraculous with what arguments people can come up just to find excuses for NOT THEM having failed. (Copium. And in team games remind yourself of Dunning Kruger effect, people think they are right but mostly aren't, simply try to do your thing unless you are in an arranged team of course)
Final note:
Most important when you are new (to any new thing in the game, be it unit, strategy, or tricks) it's normal you pay attention to the new thing and take your time and are not looking at other things, so don't get frustrated about it's actually a normal healthy process. So don't worry and don't forget it's only a game 🙂 If you enjoy self improvement and longer investment beauty and really lots of diversity also through team games and else, you will enjoy this as a hobby for longer time.
@@alexanderxyz6146 Why write all that when nobody asked?
Backspace key cycles through my bases?! Been playing this game for eleven years, and this was new to me.
You learn something new every day! 😂
It says alot if you been playing for 11 years. And here I am, revisiting, wanting to play again. Best game ever....
@@dizastro5437 Absolutely amazing game for sure 😀
🤣🤣🤣good morning
I rebinded it to spacebar. Much more ez now
This is very useful! thanks
Thank you! Glad I could help 😀
These videos made me realise how well thought out Starcraft's GUI is with all the macros.
this is so much better than all those videos that just show a "beginner build order" without any actual explanation
It's 2022 and I just decided to take the plunge into learning. Amazing video man. Thanks!
Glad I could help! :)
You giving the exact keys to press is actually one of the most useful parts coming from someone completely new. Most tutorials just tell you what to do without telling you how to actually do it which sucks because this game is so confusing when starting out
Glad I could help! :)
I am not normally the type to comment on videos but I am completely blown away by the production quality and overall information found in the video, you earned a sub and a like, I really hope you continue in youtube as it is only a matter of time before you blow up, great work!
Thank you so much, that means a lot to me! :) I'll keep working hard!
I’ve finally worked up the courage to start SC2, and I’m hooked. It’s been daunting, but videos such as these are a huge help with building strategy and learning the overall mechanics of this game. Thanks for the content!
Thank you! I'm glad it helped you out. Keep fighting! :)
1 min into the video and he already referred to his wife as a fool. I'm sold. Tonight I'm learning Starcraft with you! ^_^
This is what I've been looking for, a true beguinner tutorial. It's a bless finding this kind of videos that truly try to make u understand how the game works, instead of just plainly throwing several amounts of build orders to your face
Played this game nine years ago and am just now getting into it again! I have watched this whole playlist and am so happy to have found this gem of a guide. Thank you! hope to see more starcraft content from you.
Thank you so much! I've got a lot more content coming. I can't spend as much time as I wish on my channel atm so they take quite a while to get out but they're coming! Good luck and have fun! :)
In the same boat right now, I remember waking up early to watch the Korean tournaments when I was 13/14. I’m now 22 looking to get back to my gaming roots lol.
Literally found this video starting my SC2 journey here in 2022. Starcraft is and always will be a daunting game to pick up but this was extremely well done and easy to follow. Thank you very much, sir!
Glad I could help! Good luck and have fun with the game :)
This is literally the only good tutorial I could find on TH-cam, I didn’t believe this guy only has 6000 subscribers
Thank you so much! Glad I could help. 😀
Finally a tutorial which doesnt overwhelm me i will clearly trying playing sc2 now ngl kinda scary game to learn
Scary to play! I feel like I'm panicking trying to multitask all of these things at break neck speeds while simultaneously managing my foe's attacks and defenses!
Still, this video completely broke my losing streak! I'm so happy I found it!
As a very new Zerg player, I found myself constantly with too much larvae (especially when I learned how to inject) and got constantly supply blocked. Saying this video helped would be an understatement!
Awesome! Glad it helped and good luck with your games. 😊
I'm glad the community for this game is still active. I always wanted to return to it someday
The pro scene is better than ever IMO! As for the community, it's definitely gone down quite a bit since the game's heyday in 2011-2012, but I think it's got healthy numbers and it doesn't seem to be slowing down too much! 😀
You made me love StarCraft again, 23 years later. Thank you!!!
That's awesome! Good luck and have fun! 😀
This is genuinely the best Starcraft 2 video guide series I've seen. Like there are so many out there and a fair amount of them are the ones frequently recommended to people, they're not as well-paced and composed as this. I've played Starcraft casually since the first game's launch, but I never could wrap my mind around the fundamentals of proper play for competitive matches, so I stuck to campaigns and custom matches for the longest time. I felt itching for an RTS lately and came back to SC2 and going through this and your series really helped a ton for me to finally understand how to properly play and actually learn better along the way rather than feel like I'm not making any progress learning.
That’s awesome to hear! So glad I could help :) Good luck with the game and have fun!
Remember beginners it is always good to have a lot of scvs also known as workers so that u can expand ur command center to mineral patches and also remember use the keyboard don't just use mouse this is a rts game it requires microong units here another press a key to the gwneral direction of ur opponents army so that u wldnt need to micro by shooting 1 ship or unit by 1
How fast did you write this comment?
This video is helpful. Saw my uncle played starcraft 20 years ago. Was bored during the week then I randomly remembered about starcraft. Started playing it and kept getting destroyed in unranked.
Glad I could help! Good luck with the game and I hope you have fun 😀
Just got back into playing some StarCraft after years away, used to play when I was a kid on N64 lol The video quality is top notch! Thanks!
Can't believe you only have 1.89K subscribers with videos this good
Thank you so much! That means a lot to me 😀
I've been playing starcraft for decades, and I underestimated a lot of the ideas you show here, tried it in one misson yesterday, and it's night and day!
That’s awesome! Glad I could help :)
This game is one of the legendary titles of all time and never gets old …playing it from the first one when i was younger untill now that im 34yrs old..just here to say thank u to guide the new comers🤘🏻🍻
Thank you! Yes, StarCraft will never go out of style :)
Man, you just motivated me to get back to the game and try again. I quit because I am used to sc broodwar, back in the day I was pretty good at it.. but sc2 seemed too confusing to me, now I have a much better understanding of the game thanks to you. This is top class content. Congratulations, you should have way more views
Thank you so much! Good luck with the game, hope you enjoy it! 😀
Very helpful. I can't wait to use these methods. Also I love the style of this tutorial, I wish all tutorials were as high quality as this. Keep up the good work.
Thank you so much, that makes me happy to hear! 😀
Great tips man. It's been so long since I played starcraft, I was intimidated to try starcraft 2 multi-player.
I jumped on the campaign and tried your strategy and have been pleased with how quickly I can rally forces and slam the objectives with ease.
Thank you for posting such a well thought out and satisfying tip video. Keep up the great work.
Thanks so much for creating this! I haven't played SCII in 10 years or so. This is quite helpful to jump back in.
Thank you for uploading this. I am very excited to start learning and playing StarCraft. I have followed you on all platforms and I think you'll be doing great with your channel.
Thank you for your kind words! :) Glad I could help, good luck with the game and have fun! Let me know if you have any questions.
You have no idea how much this helped me quell my anxiety to jump into Versus matchmaking. I just got SC2 about a month ago, and after going through Terran and Zerg campaign, I still felt inadequate to play Vs, but after following the fundamentals you’ve laid out, I took the plunge and stuck with it. A couple games got owned, then I got a few wins and was placed in gold which I was surprised at. Thanks for the content, I’ll keep looking to improve, and I hope to see more videos from you soon!
Thanks for sharing, Mark! So happy to be able to help. Congrats on the gold placement, and good luck and have fun with your games!
I started playing starcraft at maybe 9 years old cause of my dad, I can't believe how much fundies I actually had correct, but seeing where I was wrong is really cool :D I hope to start playing again soon as an adult, thx for the videos!
i am starting SCII in 2022 for the first time on a whim, and i've watched some of your videos already and your enthusiasm rubs off on me
Awesome! Good luck with the game and have fun! :)
This is exactly what I've been looking for. Thank you for this vid. Finally something really useful to the start. Love the part of breaking down macros for each race and pointing out about not spamming workers to full right away. Great points, easy to understand, perfect for newcomers. Thank you once again.
Thank you so much! Glad you found it helpful :)
The video is rock solid and appropiately tailored to beginners.
P.S. The production quality is phenominal.
Thank you so much! 😀
by far the best channel in existence for starcraft beginners. you're awesome man, dont ever stop doing what you do ♥
Cool video, happy to see you've grown overtime!
OMG! This is exactly what I wanted! Thank you so much!!!
Thank you so much! Glad it was helpful! :)
2:40 wow I didn't even realize your video only has 5k views, seems professional so far. here's my comment, started playing yesterday and I hope I can beat my friends soon :P
Thank you! Good luck with your games! :)
Give me a update on that.
lol this vid got me back into playing sc2. Then I showed my friend the game and now he’s playing it. I’ll show him this video!
Love the video. Keep up the good work. I can’t wait to get started with StarCraft 2
I’m an esports lecturer in the UK. I teach production and event management and so on but one of the units I’ve taken on is about skill analysis. Getting my lot to play a few different esports games (I’m an overwatch player mostly) and StarCraft is insanely overwhelming. All of the “tutorial” videos I’ve found are still pretty abstract and don’t really explain things that well.
This is clear, concise, detailed, extremely well laid out. I don’t know if you also work in education as your day job but I have been teaching for 10 years and have two degrees in it and you have taken something really complicated and explained it perfectly at a beginner level. This is a really great video. Thank you 🙏
Wow, thank you so much! I’m not an educator but I work with requirements for IT systems and I’ve found over my career that honing my ability to explain things clearly has been very helpful :)
Really underrated video. One of the best tuts i've seen. Nice talking speed. Good pronunciation. Clear overlayed information in the video. Structure in the time slider of the video. I just love this.
I just played my first 5 games of SC2. Once Terran, twice protoss and zerg. I managed to get to 80 workers in 8:30 minutes in my last match, but i probably did not have 200 supply yet. Still this is great, thanks so much!
Thank you so much! Good luck with your games! :)
This is awesome mate :) been trying to get my friends to play for a while now and this seems like just the kind of thing to ease them into it
Much love :)
Awesome! Good luck getting them into it and I hope you guys have fun! 😊
Amazing series! Thank you for putting this together! It's really helpful.
this video is so amazing, i know its been 3 years since he uploaded it but holy moly, i was doing alright putting all of it together my self and kind of trying to memeorize the order but the macro cycle part of the video is a phenomenal part that really helps a lot for a new player like me atleast that is trying to make a list of what to do in order. Thank you so much man this actually helps so much.
I used to play this game when I was about 13 (7 years ago) and I had absolutely no idea of what I was doing but enjoyed it. Then I saw a video about starcraft APM and thought of giving it a try...
Your video really helped me, with clear explanations, and repeating things a million times (something I really need xD) I will try to put your tips into practice right now!
I appreciate the work you've put into it, I'm hoping for your channel to grow, cheers from Brazil :)
Obrigado! I'm glad the video helped you! :)
Thank you so much, I played the game a few times in the past and kept giving up because of the complexity and alot of the build orders that were titled as "beginner order" were actually hard to follow for me but this video broke down many fundementals and things which i didnt even know about and ive slowly started to get better. I have been practicing on AI and my APM started on 39 but its slowly been going up every match. Great video!!
Thank you! Good luck and have fun with the game :)
Solid video man! Decided to download the game after not touching it for years. Video was SUPER helpful.
Fantastic video and a great tutorial. I've since shied away from multiplayer RTS as I simply can't multitask like that, but I do keep up with things like Starcraft 2, and this is a very comprehensive tutorial that I think anyone should be able to start with. Underrated and you deserve more subs! Well done~
Thank you so much, that means a lot to me! 😍
These videos are really amazing, I always wanted to learn an RTS game cause they seemed really cool but felt way to complicated and hard but this videos really puts them into a better perspective.
That’s awesome! Good luck with the game and have fun :)
8:43 - I've been playing Starcraft 2 for years and this is the first time I've seen this. I have been playing co-op for a while and I wanted to know if I could start Ranked. I happened upon this video by pure chance. Thanks, bro.
Glad I could help and good luck with Ranked! 😀
one of the best gaming channels... things are crystal clear once I visit here.. thanks buddy!
I already know how to play the game, but this video is still helpful because I didn't know about some of the hotkeys. And your tutorial is excellently executed I even found it entertaining to watch.
Thank you for your quality intro tutorial. 👍🏻
My dad got me in to RTS games with Warcraft 2, and OpenRA, and I’ve never been too good. I’ve wanted to get better at Starcraft 2 for so long, and this helped so much!! You’re a godsend man. Thank you
Thank you so much, glad I could help! 😀
Just getting back into starcraft 2 again after about a 7 year hiatus. Always sucked at multi-player, but been a huge fan since the first game. Hope to learn a lot
Thanks for stopping by, and good luck with the game! 😀
Great vid, man! Thanks for the upload and keep up the good work 💪
AWESOME content -- Concise and well explained. THANK YOU!
bruh this dude shld be having like a mil subs, high quality contents and really helps new players
Thank you, that means a lot to me! :)
I'm impressed by the quality of the video and the tips for beginner players like me. Now the game looks much easier to play (started a week ago).
I really hope your channel gets the subs it deserves and hope you have a great day!
Thank you so much, and glad I could help! Have fun with the game! 😀
Awesome video! Thanks so much! I'm glad to see some more people in the comments that are picking the game up again, I was worried I missed the boat. You deserve more subscribers, glad this video got some traction.
Thank you so much! I'm super happy to be able to help people get into this game :) It's never too late to start (or come back)!
This was hilariously useful, and I shared it a bit too. Thank you for making something so indispensable for the newer starcraft playerbase.
Thank you so much! I'm glad it was helpful.
This is great. As someone who struggles with multi tasking and can't figure this game's fundamentals. This video is really helpful. Great work @Altercate
Thank you so much! Glad I could help 😀
used to play the og starcraft in highschool with all my friends during java class, it's good to be back.
Appreciate the video! I used to love playing C&C 3 when I was younger. I can't wait to get into this RTS!
Good luck with the game and have fun! C&C 3 was a ton of fun btw 😀
Appreciate the great series. I am familiar with RTS but, catching some quick highlights is helping me get into SC2 much faster than my friends hah
I know its 6 months late but amazing video, earned a sub and a like and heres my comment. Keep going man, It only gets windier the closer you get to the top of the mountain.
Thank you so much! I love that analogy, lol. Never too late for a kind comment, I read every last one I get! 😊
@@Altercate No, thank you for the content.
Learning shortcuts and hot keys was always my weaknesse i am a designer and i use a tool called figma and i struggle to learn hot keys but your videos made me learn how to do that in game and in my own work now I don't have problems with it thanks a ton
Awesome, so glad I could help out! :)
This was really well done and very helpful. Thank you for putting this together.
This finally gave me the courage to start playing the game. I love watching tournaments and the lore of this game is so cool. Thank you for this series!
Used this to train for an ffa with my friends
Awesome! Good luck and have fun :)
This was a fantastic video for the fundamentals of SC2 gameplay!
Honestly I'm not too big a fan of teaching beginners build orders because it tends to make them play rigidly and predictably. So I love that you decided not to throw in a build order and instead opted for a standard playstyle to master to allow new players to choose whatever build orders match their preferred playstyle.
Thank you! Absolutely agree. Focusing on build orders too soon will stunt your growth (and more importantly, enjoyment!) imo. Understanding the fundamentals is so much more important! 😀
Great video mate. I have been playing sc2 since it came out, and I still learnt a thing or 2. Keep up the great work!
Thank you so much! 😀
Thanks for the great video, after many years absent from starcraft, this helped me get back into it :)
I love the mech build recommendation. Having new players focus on mech is an awesome way to ensure player growth. Barracks are easier to use, but quickly build an overrelliance on marines. Mech encourages the player to mess around with their other toys.
@Axel Ave wait, are you suggesting that there is another person who has mastered the basics of sc2? My mind is completely blown 🤯 And are you also suggesting that person put in less effort into producing their videos? Sign me up! I definitely want to watch videos going over the basics of sc2 from the person who put in less effort. Thanks for the recommendation!
How to get started with SC2: Make sure you aint there to have fun. We dont have fun in Sc2.
Terran? 🤣
That's the idea I'm getting so far. Still gonna try it out and suffer with my friend.
@@RyouTheMad Good luck! Imo the key to enjoying StarCraft is to see it as a learning process and a challenge. The most satisfying part is learning how to counter the things you used to get crushed by 😀
yu know i started playing SC2 when i was like 9 or 10 now im 13 and well i think iv goten a little bit better your tips and tricks hellped me a work out things i did not know before
Thank you so much, very clear, well presented and easy to follow
Tree races? I think you mean WC3, and they're called Night Elves.
😂
I like how stargates and robotics were completely ignored in the protoss part xdd
Who needs tech, right?! Seriously though, these principles are just for learning about macro, and I do encourage players to get Robotics Facilities and Stargates when they get comfortable with the basics. 😂
xdd
@@exyl_sounds what are you doing here bruh
I gave the thumbs up at 2:47 . I was reacting to your tips, been years since I played!

Would you believe my first draft was twice as long? 🤣
"... while the command center is morphing." - Zerg player detected. :D
🤣 What is a Command Center but a Hatchery with a tough steel shell??
been playing for over 2 years and i still found knowledge and pointers in this. Great video!!!
Thanks so much! :)
I use to play the first StarCraft for hours and hours back when I was in high school in 1999. I haven't been into gaming in a long time and just got a gaming laptop so I can play some in my spare time. StarCraft 2 looks a lot better. I'm here to refresh my memory om the game and learn about any changes. Another game I played a lot back in the day in college was Quake 3 arena. I can't believe the servers are still on and people are still playing on them.

Oh yeah also great video
But the campaign are not free at most you know 2 race from wol and you need to learn zerg yourself
Good point! That's true 😃
great vid bro, hope you grow more, keep up the amazing work!!!!
This was an instant sub and like! I learned more about SC 2 than I did attempting to play it on a first pass. I feel better prepared now.
Awesome, so glad I could help! 😀
This was the best video I came across in a while...been watching GSL lately and it rekindled my love for this game...you just helped me decide I can still play this game after a very long time..thanks man!
Glad I could help! The GSL is better than ever and SC2 is still going strong. Good luck with the game! 😀
I've studied skill acquisition, and this is the best instructional I've seen on the topic. This is precisely how to get good fast.
Thank you for the kind words! :)
