(hint: the answer is not "because I'm meant to be")
I'm scouting because I need to know if there's a six pool coming, or if I need to check my base for proxy cannons or proxy gateways, or if somebody's going double gas and we need to get some ATA going. I want to see what they are doing so I can react. In the meantime, though, I rarely get a perfect 12 rax 13 gas 15 orbital off and I never make it to 3 barracks with add-ons without supply blocking myself or letting my unspent resources climb above 200.
(I play 3v3>4v4>2v2, if that makes a difference. I don't find 1v1 fun.)
I still like the idea of warpgate only being able to warp units to a pylon within some distance of a nexus. Warp prisms remain the same. But for pylons has to be within so many meters from a nexus.

Yeah, but that's so inelegant it makes me want to barf.
Watching Nony's stream, the lag playing America - Korea server is really bad. His forcefields go down a good half a second after he actually casts them.

Hope it doesn't screw him in the TSL too much.
so wait korea gets home field advantage or something? explain to me how the korean-american matches are going down
e~ PvP has become honestly enjoyable (in diamond). I can hold a 4g without a 4g, and there is this sortof VR beats coloss beats blinkers beat VR paper/scissors/rocks game that goes to the player who scouts and macros best.

Yes, when you play against people who do bad 4 gates you can hold it. If they do a good 4 gate, you have to also 4 gate or you will lose.

I've had great success with the early 3 stalker build... except when they drop like three pylons right by my main so they can warp up zealots... gahhh that makes me so angry. But yeah, immos just rip through stalkers so fast. I think what many people forget to do is micro the immortal in battle, make sure he is only ever hitting stalkers, and make sure he never overkills them(if firing on one stalker by himself, he deals three shots for 50, and than a 4th one for ten. Just switch targets and have one of your stalkers finish it.

Alright good, at least you know what you are looking for. After that it's just practice, and learning to tap your hotkeys to flick between your base and your scout. You should also be able to build workers while looking at your scout, only coming back to your base to build buildings.

The example isn't terribly good because nani gifted tlo his forward pylon.
Bitter's coaching session with incontrol is much more comprehensive:

This is really, really well made.

inctontrol is mostly good though, besides that.
First 3 games of Tyler I've seen havebeen him getting destroyed by koreans. You guys said he was good though right?
And korean PvP seems to focus on ending the game in 8 minutes or less. Ridiculous how aggressive people are.
edit: or not Tyler lies!
fucking probe noises man
too alluring of a siren
Why
It would fix all the problems

Where can I get this?

edit: link fixed.
also this is the sc2 remake of the sc1 terran campaign
http://www.sc2mapster.com/maps/sc1-episode-1-rebel-yell/
it gets annoying having to load the next map though since the guy didn't put in any auto load when I downloaded it
also the guy tried to do something different in one of the missions and it fails.
e: i think for tsl, higher seed gets home server advantage for the first game, then it alternates each game

oh if thats the case thats fine
thats what i would suggest to do
edit: i mean lag sucks in general, but what you gonna do

on Dhal.
e~ a week or so ago Dhal basically said the same thing and I held his 4gate reliably.
Apologize
for burning that Dhal.
Post a replay.

i have a friend who wants to learn how
I heard you have 4gated once or twice before
Lemming I don't have any saved vs Dhal, just recent diamond games. I have a better idea. I'll see YOU among the curvy stars!
(or Dhal might have a rep he was like "interesting, I want to look at this")
e~ ahahahah
agreed, too nit picky

i think he would do well, he would probably buckle up and practice pretty damn hard if he knew he was in an tournament
i just cracked up at tyler asking for it for some reason
