Day[9] Daily #435 – Stephano vs Polt ZvT

Day[9] Daily #435 – Stephano vs Polt ZvT

„Today we examine an absolutely epic game between Stephano and Polt from the Lone Star Clash! In this game, we not only study the stunning decision making by both players, but constantly repeat a mantra of good decision making: „How does my action NOW help me set up for LATER!“ It’s easy to get caught up in trying to win _NOW_, but we see both players have plans that continue to unfold for the entire duration of this 45 minute macrofest! :D“

Day[9] Daily #434 – Newbie Tuesday – Simplifying Problems!

„Today we’ll examine the big problem that you’ll see in the opening: there’s so much he can do, how do I know which one to prepare for? To help answer our questions, we use the tool of grouping! We’ll demonstrate how to take tens or hundreds of situations and boil it down to three or four groups. Then, we show how to battle vs those groups in a way that doesn’t stress our brain too much :D. In the study, we’ll be using PvP as our basis, as the matchup is „most easily losable“ in the early game.“

Day[9] Daily #432 – SKMC’s PvT – Living through the Midgame

Day[9] Daily #432 – SKMC’s PvT – Living through the Midgame
„Though many feel the „Protoss maxed deathball“ is too good to be true, many Protosses struggle to even get there! Staying alive in the midgame vs Terran is increasingly becoming an epic nightmare for the average Protoss bear. Fortunately, we’re going to look at a whole slew of games (largely from SK.MC) to see the ways we can manage Terran aggression while still teching and taking expansions! :D. Some of the big keys are aggression in the early game and using idle gateways to help us defend vs drops!“

Day[9] Daily #431 – Simple TvT Openings by Puma!
„Though I’ve done some dailies on the general positional natural of TvT (such as Daily #394), we’ll be looking at some really basic openings and why they work! Hopefully this + Daily #394 will make you a master of TvT :D. Also, I really like Puma’s generally aggressive styles, so these are some fun openings too! ^___^“

Day[9] Daily #430 – LiquidZenio vs oGsSuperNova

Day[9] Daily #430 – LiquidZenio vs oGsSuperNova
„Regularly the world of ZvT can feel somewhat difficult to navigate. The terran has a variety of openings that make it difficult to know when to drone, when to build units, when to gas, or even when to attack! As one example, just TWO dailies ago we learned the art of MarineKingPrime’s sexy 2rax into moar aggression style, a style that messes with zerg’s ability to drone, tech, and expand. In today’s daily, we get the chance to not only see LiquidZenio repel said 2rax aggression, but manage a very difficult game with relative calm and solid control. We see examples of his patience and positioning when dealing with midgame pushing AND we see how he uses small mid-game attacks to limit terran’s options.“

Day[9] Daily #429 – Stephano’s ZvP Late Game Style!

Day[9] Daily #429 – Stephano’s ZvP Late Game Style!
„The biggest obstacle zergs are facing lately is the transition to broodlords. Zergs feel powerful in the midgame with their terrifying roach/hydra/corruptor attacks and invincibile once they have a maxed broodlord, infestor army. However, protosses have figured out the optimal way to defend all the woes of the midgame lair tech and strike right before the hive tech gets going. Though the problem plagues many zergs, Stephano demonstrates some clean, clear ways to avoid any type of stress and strain.“

„In today’s Funday Monday, you are permitted only two attack maneuvers – defend or counter attack! Though it seems like base trades and base races are likely… well they are. So lets watch some! :D“

Day[9] Daily #426 – Newbie Tuesday – 10 games worth of Adjustments

Day[9] Daily #426 – Newbie Tuesday – 10 games worth of Adjustments

Last week, we noted that adjusting is our fundamental tool for improvement. That said, the notion of adjustment can often seem confusing and overwhelming. However, we’re going to look at Max (from SCreddit!) play 10 games of TvP in a row. Between each game, he makes a small and tiny adjustment to improve from game to game. We’re going to see that not only is it fun and easy, but also creates HUGE improvements in gameplay!
