    one forge or two?
    Also, mainly zealot/sentry, or stalker focused? Or is it pretty balanced?

    Double forge, I'd say half zealots, 1/3 stalkers, 1/6 sentries (like a bento box! of units... >.>)

    There are different variations of it. If he's taking a super fast third, Adel uses 2 forges. Basically he uses zealot/sentry + a few stalkers until charge finishes, and then he backs off of sentry production.

    I haven't really heard a lot of husky casts until now, just know people whine a lot.

    He is really fun to listen too, I can definately see why he is the most popular youtube caster.

    On the topic of the last series.
    I've seen Nada win a game a total one single time. I'm not even talking set, I've seen him win only a single game ever.

    Though I understand that he is legendary good, it's pretty ridiculous that I've only ever managed to see him lose.

    It's very weird.

    Finally finished creating original post version 2.0. Got rid of a lot of the beta-era stuff and updated it with current infos. Let me know if anything needs changes or what not.

    In particular, I don't know of any good terrans that stream. Possibly because most terrans are bad. ^_^

    Someone brought up Spanishiwa's new build a page or two back. Destiny's dismantling him in ZvZ on his (Destiny's) stream right now. Or at least just did.

    He's not actually that good (read: as the professional players), but pretty fun to watch. He is basically using the same style Idra used in a couple of his TSL games, delaying gas to drone drone drone. It seems really strong in the current meta game!

    I think that I may try it as written, but I may have to add up times and costs for hatch->pool->queens, as opposed to pool->queen->hatch and larvae production rate, or i guess the measurement is 2 base saturation rate. It looks like the build's goal is to minimize time to mineral saturate 2 bases, and the creep spread, extra queens for easy expanding and crawlers are nifty extras because you'll have so damn much mineral income.

    its an extremely interesting open, i may have to seriously mathcraft this one a bit to see if his open is... "optimal".

    Kambing, you up for some number crunching on this with me?

    wow, this is a crazy interesting open.

    You almost need to drop 2 more hatches once you get your gas going to keep enough larvae around. And when you're suddenly triple drone gas mining at 4 geysers, the lair and sling speed and whatever tech you want come really REALLY fast.

    Not sure how many spines & queens are "enough", that's going to have to be field tested, but this is a really really interesting open.

    I think that I can see problems with the IceFisher ZvZ. Fast Banes and slings with normal econ builds (say off of a 14 sling expand) should be able to bumrush his worker lines and take out crawlers and queens. I think that it would be weak against Big Cheese ZvZ as well.

    so PA i was sitting in the NA chat and realised no-one here really streams alot and maybe there is a void, i used to stream back at retail launch and did so for about 2 months straight, good few hours every day with commentary and stuff, it was alot of fun. So as im ill currently with nothing to do during the day i think i may start up again so tomorrow, probably earlyish GMT im going to attempt to do some hardcore ladder streaming on NA, ill post a link up tomorrow.

    All going well i can see myself doing it every day again as its a blast :D.

    I was a rank 2 diamond last season playing masters and this season since ive been ill ive played 8 games

    Quite High Quality too, looks good fullscreen

    I've had a problem since my DeathAdder broke with mouse acceleration. I'm using the magic mouse in the interim, and whenever I open starcraft, it turns the acceleration back on, even if I switch back to the normal window. Any ideas for help? I really can't play with it on anymore.

    I like the slimmed up, sleeker look of the OP. Nice to see a lot of my info and hard work still there with all of the non-useful stuff trimmed away. :D

    I only saw two things to change; there is a left over tag in the "playing with PA people" step 1 and the WFC should be number 4 (Dhal, Joek, Naz, now Cap). Also, Simon mentioned that he's not doing the Curvy league anymore, so we can probably drop that from the OP. It would be easy enough to re-add it in the future if it became needed again.

    All in all, great job. It's always good to know that other people can keep up a high quality thread standard when I'm not around for a thread flip.
