    The ultimate mind game would be to start the game going ground army while doing double-cyber upgrades (bonus points if you do all the fleet beacon upgrades too). Then when you're 3/3, you make a mass switch to air. If the game goes even longer than that, maybe you go double forge and then switch back to ground.

    I tried to jump into some SC2 today, played 5 games 1v1 and got completely shredded. I'm used to play super slow and casual WC3 with my cousins like 15 years ago
    I'm not really getting what I can do to improve so I just play against KI and try to have fun : D but I still like to watch pro gameplay, very funny and entertaining

    • @chiennation5932
      @chiennation5932 2 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      Learn the basic build order, continue to make workers until you hit 60-80, don't get supply blocked(make a pylon/depot/overlord) a few supply before you're about to be blocked, and spend your resources. With all of this you can hit diamond with decent macro

    • @murphy54000
      @murphy54000 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Look into VIBE's Bronze to GM (B2GM) series. Replay the campaign (if you own any of them) to get used to the hotkeys, if you feel like it, or mess around in custom bot games, then just listen to VIBE. You should get into gold within a couple weeks at the worst, if you play a couple games a day looking to improve.

  • @AussieAusdauer
    @AussieAusdauer 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Idea for the next "Beating grandmasters with stupid stuff" - Pure Zerg Casters (maybe with a supplementary rule of up to 20 Supply normal units so you can get to the end game casters without being 1/2 Base all-ined).
    - Queens
    - Infestors
    - Swarm Hosts
    - Vipers
    - I would argue and say due to the mechanics, Corruptors would count as a "Caster" (they can vomit on buildings which is a "spell"), also allows map mobility without being dependant on Brenda to slow walk across the map with her Creep.

  • @PlaytheListDude
    @PlaytheListDude 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    that first game was a super bamboozle

  • @TheBigLou13
    @TheBigLou13 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    maybe extend on the idea by not only confusing your enemy but by trying to bait him into thinking you're building a specific unit, so he trys to counter it, but in reality you're building the counter to THAT. You could for example build a fake production proxy directly at his natural - show it to your enemy - when he's gone and the buildings are almost done: cancel them all and use the resources to build said counter to the counter of your bait. Beating GrandMasters by being another step ahead. Or in short: Beating Brandmasters By Being BigBrain.

  • @greatmagicalhat388
    @greatmagicalhat388 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Ideas for stupid stuff. 1) You can only build your base inside your opponents main base anywhere past the top of the ramp. You get extra points if you can mine their main mineral patch. 2) Nukes Only. I've seen you go mass ghost but mass nuke is where it's at. 3) Tower Defense. I am a very defense heavy player. Idk what that really means but it translates to me building a ton of bunkers, siege tanks, mines, canons , spines crawlers ect... I love 2v2s where i just go mass cannon it's stupid. Anyways Love the stupid stuff and your 1v2s .

    Use the sentry hallucination to make your opponent believe that your build is going a certain direction (e.g. two Phonixes = Skytoss). Your opponent will build a hard counter to the hallucination and you build a hard counter to his hard counter. Insta-Win.

    • @henningbreede6428

    Idea: Attack with 200 supply army. Meaning you dispose of your workers before the attack and use the resources you have in your bank to build up to 200. You are allowed to rebuild workers after reaching 200 and losing some units.

    Consider mass hallucinations feints, scout composition disinformation, clever micro damage decoy.

I really want to play but am so bad and lost at the game. There isn't many recent beginners guides on how to play. Can you consider making a Video on how to learn to play SC2?
