1:21 That's what she said.

[Wilson1592]

This solo channel needs to subs! It's awesome

[tb1985uk]

YOU HAVE NOT ENOUGH MINERALZ

[RottingCorpse100]

NEXT: Quest to Code A

[zag8712]

Great micro, Jeff! GG!!!!! :)

[thekortaku]

wow i havent been in the loop have I? last time I watched this guy he was like mid diamond.

[TheNegativeForce]

I saw this on the stream, and it was just as bouse then :D

[Seneziod]

Very nice video

[eason6001]

How did he build units with his wrapgate with no hotkey?

[johs58]

@eason6001 click W and all your warpgates will be targeted

[reformCopyright]

@johs58 I do wonder why Protoss have this auto-hotkey advantage.

[88naka]

@eason6001 you dont hotkey your warpgates dude.

[zag8712]

@88naka Just hit W.  Selects all open Warpgate.

[WeItenspinner]

@88naka

No one does. Press "W"! ;)

[FilledwithSIN]

Psy vs. Maximus imo.

[Seneziod]

@FilledwithSIN Psy is way better... no offense to maximus but he is

[yaerius]

definitely better than games from streams. I hope you stay with casting this way. way to go to the top, Jeff!

[Azarelius]

Cheese/all in is a valid strategy imo.

[Hawaiirealtalk]

I think you must do whatever you need to do to win. It doesnt matter if you win by a cheese or in late game, winning is winning.

[AnOrangeSkrullnz]

Sweet Jeff good to watch you get better and better. mean games.

[gigioneumatica]

how many players are in each category?

[MadBagGamer]

@gigioneumatica

All leagues are based on percentage of total players except the grandmaster league. Bronze - Diamond are each just under 20% of the total player base, Master's is the top 2% of the player base. Grandmaster's is top 200 players.

I'm not sure how many actual players are in each.

[lingling101010]

the guy didn't sound like he was upset :P I consider it a compliment :D

[fateephat]

@lingling101010

yeah was definitely a compliment.

[YodSamechLamed]

@fateephat I disagree...

He never said gg, which is always indicative of bad manners. If he were complimenting Jeff, he would have said gg.

[regnar1374]

If the terran had held that off, loosing a bunch of SCV's and Jeff backs off it would not be considered an all in... I dont think that in SC2 there is an ALL IN that does not include pulling all of your workers. I'm sick of hearing that every build is an all in. he attacked did some damage which was his goal. I think Jeff hit a really good timing here due to his scouting.

[Lanterncorp599]

@regnar1374 all ins fall into the same category as cheeses they are ,whether people want to admit it or not, legitimate strats when you scout and decide that is the best chance of pulling out a win

[Admiraldna]

@regnar1374 nice too see someone with some brains all these most these other people are just trolls. keep up the good comments. !!!!!!!

[originalGawwad]

@regnar1374 if his attack had failed and the terran had kept his natural up, he would have been very very much behind. That is why it's an all in.

[Mattis10000]

I don't think there is anything wrong with an 'All In'. If it works, it works and people should adapt. I think you should continue doing them if they continue to work.

[JAStube86]

Your Blackness, listen to Bring it by Trapt, watching your games with it on is an experience :D

[204D]

clearly he wasn't mad, he was just complimenting you.

[Peaveyendorser]

415 games so far this season...how?

[proxycatDK]

good going jeff :D . ur an inspiration! ;)

[789123456789]

sounded like a compliment...

[Telemascope]

If enemy is going to fast expand as terran, he has to expect an all in... Quit crying and stop fast expanding if you don't want your opponent to go all in...

[Gforcebond]

@Telemascope

yea i would of typed nice fast expand to be a dick

[JTbae]

I don't think he was upset... but its so hard to tell the tone over text.

"nice all in!" sounds like a friendly compliment to me

if he said "scrub" or "noob" or anything like that along with what he said, then he would be upset. But I think too much.

[ghostly1985]

@JTbae Normally I would agree, but since he didn't "gg" and added a "!" it seems like he was annoyed.

[Gamersruletheworld]

@ghostly1985 A lot of more social players will add the punctuation marks in when they're not doing something. In this case, I'm pretty sure it was still complimentary

[ghostly1985]

@Gamersruletheworld Fair enough, and I guess it's better to assume the best from people :)

[cloudjin893]

jeff how about using that smurf account to try teching up to 3tier units like high templars but not just mixing them in but theyre really part of your army in a bit of numbers with some warp prism plays and stuff

[ryolddl]

Yeah Jeff I'm enjoying tour videos you are awesome and loves Adam and your videos haha stay bouse!

[supermalyna]

3 gate robo *builds 4 gates* trololol

[SuperNickfire]

@supermalyna he scouted a fast expand, so he went for 5gates..

[supermalyna]

@SuperNickfire I know, duh.. What am I doing here, I don't even play imba toss

[ACIDONMYMIND111]

So much better

[datboikevin]

i want to watch you play against a pro like idra, mma, kiwikkaki, someone or hdstarcraft

[xMorgasm92]

@datboikevin why? he would just get stomped. As of now at least

[xcrouton]

It's impressive how much better Jeff has gotten the last few months. Micro is pretty solid now

[Hellhog7]

The only thing that kind of bothers me in the months I've watched you play is you really never go for the macro game. I think it would be great if you tried more macro builds. It's the best way to improve your mid and late game play. Most of your vids are typically 12 min or less it seems.

[DBak91]

i liked the little talk you had at the end

[dylan522p]

@japaneseaggression Lol 4 zealots at 8 min is cheese yup yup yup

[dylan522p]

@JeffWatersRules That's a HEAVY micro tactic and hero expands with that plus gets either a TEMP archives during push plus micro with ff sentries. It's ridiculous what the guy does

[Tsk221]

i just love those kind of videos. Allmost as much as i loved the gta/saints row solo playtrough :)

[GamingSavage]

Love you Jeff!

total bro crush

<333333333333333

[legomaster101]

try this in wood league :D

[JeffWatersRules]

Ever done double WP like HerO against Zerg?

[igotTHEcookies]

haha nice crying over an all in -_- see it done in pro games all the time by Terran games nice win Jeff ^^

[p5yMan]

Much Love. Much homo.

[japaneseaggression]

Last 2 games have been cheese.. you scared to play macro games?

[lukeba214]

@japaneseaggression

You scared to listen to the end of the video?

I dare you, you might get your question answered.

[japaneseaggression]

@lukeba214 he cant macro. so if its fail hes fucked.. if the ALL IN CHEESE fails, you lose DERPA DERP

[CrazyHand196]

@japaneseaggression

what league r u in?

[lukeba214]

@japaneseaggression

Funny how he mentioned that about 3 times during the video, he even stated why he did that tactic.....

Don't think that just because you've watched one video, that's the only tactic the player knows.

Stop trolling plz.

[CrazyHand196]

@japaneseaggression

the last one i dont recall is cheese he just put a proxy pylon in the back of the base

and if he is an aggressive player he doesnt have to go into the late game. There is no rule that says that macro games should be every game

[Camman22424]

@japaneseaggression first game watnt cheese, he just had a hidden pylon if he needed it.

[Shadowfolds]

Keep it up, Jeff

[lordnerfking1]

Yeah, I've had experience with a 5gate, I 5gate +1 timing pushed an expanding terran and crushed him =D

[AAAvlar]

I find it hilarious how many people put tips in the comments, especially because they are all probably silver league.

[CrazyHand196]

@AAAvlar

exactly!!!

[SuperNickfire]

@lordofninepaths U MAD?? WHY ALL CAPS bro? lol

[zulowski]

I wish You were a Zerg player...

Keep on the good stuf tho.

Peace out

[TheMatinho90]

I just wonder... When Jeff finally gets into grandmaster, how will this series be called?

[BigPoida]

@TheMatinho90 Quest to stay GrandMasters?!

[AxeBum]

@TheMatinho90

quest to stay in Grand Masters :P

[SuperNickfire]

@AxeBum quest to korean bronze? ^^

[Raiks]

@TheMatinho90 Quest to MLG victory?

[GamerGeek2012]

@TheMatinho90 quest to mlg maybe?

[TheKaeseStulle]

Actually maybe the terran honestly congratuated you on youre all in ... Then again its the internet

[HoldThisHandTightly]

Sorry but the title of the vid cracks me up ,couldn't it be something more realistic like "quest to top8 masters"

[minored360]

I wonder what will be the next quest if he hits GM. Quest to GSL ? googogo

[Storm96123]

7:00: "It's just pure pressure at this point."

7:14 "And of course i cut my probes, cause im all-in."

Wait.. What? :o

[TheVoices297]

@Storm96123 it is both.

[TheDrHobo]

So many haters... Guys when you are in game its hard to think perfectly, and half of you talk like you are top 20 in the world or something

[BladeBloodreaver]

@TheDrHobo constructive critisism is how you learn the most. And if they are correct he should apply the suggestions made. I read patroclus32's comment before watching the game and saw these "flaws" in his play, which could simply be better. We say these things to improve jeff's play, not to demoralise him.

[bunnydung]

lol 123 likes 4 dislikes



[Milkandcookeys]

Lol, already giggling ''Sounds really coooool''

[EmileFourmis]

The thing about all-in is that it won't get you to Grand Master

[ZarniwoopVannHarl]

@EmileFourmis There are planty of Grand Masters that all-in on a regular basis (there are even Grand Masters that cheese and only cheese).

[eyallev]

@EmileFourmis a grand master will all in, if he's pretty sure it will win the game.

a wood leage player, will all in, because he thinks this is the only way to win a game.

[coughtogetoff]

@eyallev LOL story of my life :P

[red244]

Why does Master feel like the old diamond?

[dcore1337]

wp tho

[dcore1337]

20 apm :(

[dobramihilewicz]

"Terran go always all in" - said all inning protoss

[Fredrich1337]

@dobramihilewicz its true tho, like brings all the scvs and shit is very common

[jasonmage]

@dobramihilewicz but it is true so :P

[guppo26]

Were you using the new microphone for this recording? It sounded a bit 'deeper' and some of the 'popping' sounds came out better/heavier?

[W4fflemonger]

Epic annotation spelling fail!

[SirGecko01]

7:21 Why is he upset? He is saying "Nice all in". Actually, he was waiting for the "ty" or "gg".

[LordofKings135]

@SirGecko01 I think it was the :| face

[FruityOatyBar1984]

@LordofKings135 he didnt make that face. he said "nice all in" and then the next one was "!" not the :l face.

[LordofKings135]

@FruityOatyBar1984 Oh, that's what I thought at first but I was watching on 360p small screen and I assumed that it wasn't going to be a ! with what he said

[DantehMan]

Good luck getting to Grand Masters, Jeff! No matter what do what makes you happy and remember that this is just a game.

[MrRapstars]

Always kill the Marauders first! this is a very important thing to do in early game PvT

[mrtretre100]

is this live?

[Yuktopus121]

@mrtretre100 Yup but its not stream.

[japaneseaggression]

nice cheese.. afraid of macro game?

[Zalgrads]

how come i can watch jeff's stream on 720p+ no probs without lag but when it comes to watching youtube videos i have to wait for the video to buffer even if its on 480p

[Tyrant597]

@Zalgrads I think it's because if a video is new, youtube hasn't distributed it as much? I have kind've the same issue.. usually if a vid is new, I can't watch it on 320, but 480 is great, lol.

[lordnerfking1]

@Zalgrads I have the opposite problem, 1080p on YouTube, easy, 480p on stream, my comp has a seisure.

[bigmikev12]

@Zalgrads For me it is the other way around... WTF bro.

[nicolaisidek]

@Zalgrads isn;t the quality a little bit lower on stream? I think that's why.

[slauge]

@Zalgrads

It's the other way around for me for me. Youtube works more or less swell while twitch.tv is so slow that I cant watch anything live unless it's like 3am here. I guess it has to do with what kind of pressure the respective servers are under in our different locations.

[rambofirstblood07]

when you 5 gate how many workers do you need?

[TheMusZero]

@rambofirstblood07 18 is the usual number.

[AustinH234]

I wouldn't say 18, it would be more like 21... three for gas and two on each mineral patch then one for the proxy pylon

[MaximusBlack]

@AustinH234

It's 20 in total. 16 on line. 3 in gas 1 on field

[TheMusZero]

Never underestimate the power of the mighty bouse: MaximusBlack

[xxxXSmokeyXxxx]

You are getting a lot better, I still remember when you were a platinum noobie. :')

[WtfCocoNut]

@MaximusBlack

I usually don't ask questions when commenting but I've been thinking about this for a while and I was wondering why you dont play League of Legends?

I mean, it's a really fun game, well balanced, you learn it pretty quickly. But the most important, I think you'll enjoy it.

THUMBS UP SO HE CAN SEE! :)

[Fowsed]

If Something Can Go Wrong... It will... good video.. Keep It Up!!

[neekoli9]

I wonder why he was playing terran if it shows him playing zerg the most? that's probably hurting him..

[FrostdPoptart]

He calls it an all-in, meanwhile you had mined significantly more resources.

I mean I know he pulled SCV's, and all, but OP mules should still have been an equalizing factor.

[PharaChris]

I can't wait for the first ladder game between MaximusBlack and Deezer/CombatEX :b

[Fowsed]

[PeteS003]

3:09 WG research hotkey is g (default), it is a bad habit to click the icons, should also hotkey your gateways before they are warp gates so you can morph them while keeping an eye on your army. Nice call on picking off the depots at the front though :)

[iammestamanRS]

@PeteS003 At that point in the game, clicking the Icon isn't really a bad thing, there's nothing else to do so why not click it! lol

[PeteS003]

@iammestamanRS Because it is a bad habit, do it enough times and it starts to become more normal and hurts your play. If in a PvP he like proxy 2 gated and he was still pressuring you with the zealots when your core finished, you would have to delay the research or something else would have to suffer (ie. lose unmicro'd zealot or just time), in some situations a seemingly harmless mistake could cost you a game. These are the kinds of things you need to fix to become GM.

[Johnywang1]

@patroclus32 harass his workers with probe or harass his workers with units? cuz last game he did harass the mineral line really harddd btw.

[TheMusZero]

@Johnywang1 i think he ment with the probe

[NooN824]

@patroclus32 That's ridicoulous, You can't judge play by just 1 match

[danielgr86]

@patroclus32 And please...MB use HOTKEYS!!

[2OP4U]

@patroclus32 The warpgate upgrade was finished, but not the gateways. So it doesnt really matter :P

[salaizrm]

@patroclus32 dude good advice, but honestly i doubt jeff is gonna pay attention to ur comment. for a silver league player like myself this advice is great but usually higher league players dont listen, unless its advice from a pro player.

[nbandofbrother]

@patroclus32 1. His probed died from the marine. So he couldn't do much with it.

I agree with your second statement.

3. His warpgate finished but his other gateways were done after the pylon was finished.

4. He targeted some of his marauders.

[eyallev]

@nbandofbrother the warp gate this was a waste, no matter how you spin it.

bottom line, he should have/could have done the chrono on the nexus to make a faster probe(s) or speed up a stalker. he should have had a pylon building in his base, before he went out to make the proxy.

but it wasn't a biggy (however as you reach GM, it's the little things that start to count).

[nbandofbrother]

@eyallev He cut his probes and he did chrono a stalker.  The warpgate wasn't a waste and if you think it was then he wouldn't need a proxy pylon. But how you worded it; it's hard to understand what you are trying to say.

[Webster52402]

Very nice work. There's a certain irony I like in seeing a Terran actually get seiged by those stalkers for a bit, before being utterly crushed. :D

[HerdULIekLetsPlays]

Really liked this build :D
