lol at some points when i hear you talking i think your taking about halo "ghosts and banshees" and a few other things.

[Bratok1212]

Great job!!! :)  LADEL

[drjftgaming]

Hey man, quick tips. If you're using FRAPs don't record in half screen. Just set your resolution to 1280x720 and it's fine.

[Khoasecurse]

Excellent Video.

[Shotoran]

dude the screen is like so freaking small

even fullscreen

it's still small

[myeongnyang]

[Equinoxx1337]

I'm a sc player who is currently in beta and I notice maxing upgrades isn't a stat of choice in sc2

ROFL

[MrOgrer]

real good video, please do more, i learned alot from this

[jonathansfox]

Okay, I LOVED the part where you slowed the video down for the engagement at the end, to show in slow motion the ghosts firing its EMP at the high templar. That's something I haven't seen any other commentator do, and it was really valuable, not to mention cool to see it drop into slow motion as all the forces started to attack each other. I also appreciate your approach to the commentary -- not just describing what's happening, but walking through the logic and strategy informing your actions.

[FunnellRLY]

decent commentary.

[Moleculor]

You mention trying to do the video in 720p. It's a good idea... except as far as I can see in 480p, you've got enormous black borders around the video. Not sure why, or how. Not having these would increase the detail visible a great deal.

[EndrickVideos]

Yup, I've already fixed this issue for the next audio that I'm going to publish.

[lazomaniac]

good com, a lot of good information

[leeroyjenks]

great video, but the follow up is set to private :(

[EndrickVideos]

Sorry about that, it had been public for 3 days and then all of a sudden changed to private. It's fixed now. Thanks for the heads up.

[TheRealCharlemagne]

Hey Endrick, you should try ghosts with Raven Seeker missles. The Ghosts use their EMPs to drain the protoss's sheilds, and the Ravens use their Seeker Missles to destroy everything.

[Midjet666]

With longer commentaries you can set them up as a playlist so it will play through all of the videos.

Or you can set the second video as a reply to this one so it makes it really easy for people to find the next one.

[wwarriorww]

Also you might want to consider adding the replays patch number to video info.

[d3eusebio]

Hey man, great vid, but just a couple of things to improve. Put a little more excitement in your voice and watch your "ums." It really got to me and I couldn't watch the rest of the vid. I will check out more of your SCII vids later hoping you can make a few improvements.

[Miganto1]

@d3eusebio completely agree with this. A good video, but you sound like you don't want to be commentating, and too many 'ums' are quite annoying. So yeah, try to be a bit more excited, and rather than 'um' just take a break :)

[EndrickVideos]

I'm working to cut out most of the "ums" out for my next audio.

Regarding the level of excitement, I think some people are used to Blizzard's battlereport style audios, in which their main focus is to hype up their game and make all the units sound super exciting, or a shoutcast of a Korean tournament.

This is not that type of commentary. It's a strategy / tip style audio, and I go into a lot more detailed analysis of tactics than you're going to find in battlereports.

[Miganto1]

@EndrickVideos

OK yeah, i didn't mean be excited like a sports game, or horse racing, but a little more spark would be nice, your voice sounds very monotonous, and it makes me sleepy ;)

It might just because i'm not American, so not used to the accent.

[Miganto1]

@EndrickVideos OK yeah, i didn't mean get really excited, like in a horse race, or the superbowl, but a little extra 'oomph' would make it more interesting to listen to. Your voice sounds quite monotonous, and it reminds me of school, where you're just reading out facts, and not trying to keep the audiences attention, which, as a "commentary" you should be :)

It could just be because i'm not American and am not used to the accent.

[Patchumz]

@EndrickVideos Well, most people are quite excited over the matches :P

[EndrickVideos]

Understood. It's hard though to get excited at the same time as trying my best to dissect the game and give you guys the best strategy analysis that I can. There are a lot of guys doing "shoutcasts". I'm doing more of a "strategy-cast" or something :)

[xxArcangel117xx]

Can you turn on the APM tab next time?

[EndrickVideos]

Good idea, I'll try to remember to do that. Although one drawback is there's a bit less viewable screen if I do that.

[wwarriorww]

Great Video Thanks for sharing I hope to see more.

One critique however, please post the link to additional video parts within the info.

[EndrickVideos]

Good call. Done.

[wwarriorww]

Great video, thank you for posting and I hope to see more.

[ctmaszek]

great!

[sjaak113]

Very good vid, but i'm curious on what the hotkeys are all for.

[EndrickVideos]

I may cover hotkeys in a future commentary.

[EndrickVideos]

A few minutes into the commentary, I meant to say "150 minerals", not "50 minerals", when referring to the gateway.
