[underthetrees12]

Thank you for all these videos. They're extremely useful, and have helped me improve my gameplay immensely. :]

[countigggd]

Ahzz, stop doing Z FPVODS! My roomates are all Z and they are using you as a guide to beating me. More P vods! :D

[AhmedThaking]

haha :D Beating hydras with P is easy :D

just reaver op and high templars

[countigggd]

Maybe easy for YOU. I get hydra broken all the time now. :(

It's so hard to get that second scout in! If I go early sair I sacrifice precious reaver time. I get cracked like an egg.

[AhmedThaking]

well i had the same problem once.. but practice ;)

Maybe i could help you :D

[dewinmoonl]

his voice is always monotone and robotic, just get used to it lololol

but yeah good commentary. That terran is pretty damn good btw

[pooptrain92]

yeah good to see you back

Why did you decide (and even plan) to drop at all?

Shouldn't you just exploit immobility of his tank army to get the whole map?

[Ahzmer]

this video covers that mistake exactly, overextending vs mech when he clearly wanted me to drop etc. You often want to drop vs mech simply for the fact that his army is quite immobile, and you will be able to do a lot of damage in his main and really slow him down if its succesful.

dropping would have been fine, but I should have delayed it a bit more. It's easy to get impatient when things are just sitting around and you have a good economy etc.

Why would you go 2 hat against mech over 3 hatch? I try to use 13 pool 13 gas (2.5 hatch build) vs mech nowdays, as somone said in a guide. Can you say something about that? Why 2 hatch is prefered over 3 hatch.

[Ahzmer]

Both work, but 3 hatch is a lot more risky because its harder to fight against various possible harassments the terran can come up with. For example it might be very hard to do anything against 2 port wraith with 3 hat build, but with 2 hat your spire is almost ready. Same for some other builds too, such as dropping vultures, etc.

Yes, you can manage with 3 hat but its harder at times, and a bit more risky.

Defiler with swarm wouldnt help you that much, but since you had an excess of mineral and gas wouldnt teching to hive and get plague have help you? Or was it too late after your drop to start teching, in that case how about before the failed drop?

[Ahzmer]

it was a bit too late after the drop, but if I had never dropped it would have been fine. I had pretty good economy, and a decent army. I was able to kill a lot of his scvs and slow down his mining. It would have been fine to get defilers at that point, if I hadn't overextended myself.

[smnoamls]

on a good note, I admire your ability to explain very calmly your thought processes through the game and despite losing you posted this very well played game.

Good on you.

On a slightly less good note, you should try to improve the commenting voice in this video. You sound slightly bored ( of course , you played this game already so its less exciting ) but it comes out a little nasal.

Remember to tilt your head up , breath in through the nose and exhale through the mouth. It will improve things

[nbtnbt4]

Awesome FPVODs Ahzz, but your voice does make me a sleepy, mostly because of the slightly bored voice. Maybe try to sound more energetic? =D =D

[Ahzmer]

and I thought that I was pretty energetic over here lol

[drzeng]

thank you ahzz for posting videos where u lose; dunno WHY combat thinks this isn't educational. learning a good player's thought process and how you overextend or mess up is crucial when you want to teach people how to get better.
