I dont get people who don't like smurfing. It doesn't ruin the integrity of anything, imo. I'm a Protoss player at about 3.5k D3 on EU. I've been surfed a few times. I realized pretry quickly their mmr was waaay higher than their league and thought, cool! I get to see how real players do stuff! I get to test my best against someone really good. I played a masters 3 terran player who is 4.5k mmr. I almost won a few times. It actually was close and I took the game to the late game. He had better multitasking and macro, but the engagements were really close. I also played a masters 1 zerg who helped me understand how to read roach timings better. I got obliterated, but it was fun! I would live to have the chance to up against PiG, uThermal, Harstem, etc. Not because I'm good, I really suck, but because I want to watch the replays and see where I messed up and how to Improve. to me, playing people way better than me really exposes my weaknesses, rather than someone with equally terrible gameplay as myself on the ladder... Just my opinion.

@@nibs1989 A guaranteed loss (or a guaranteed win) ruins integrity of any ranked ladder. I don't mind facing them in unranked. But in ranked, it's just a guaranteed loss, which objectively reduces integrity. . I see the point you are trying to make though, and I somewhat agree with it, but not in ranked. I have a high ranked friend that plays customs with me to help me learn. I don't want to see people 200+apm higher than me in my rank though. If you can't ask the smurf why they did what they did, you aren't actually learning anything. You are just fodder for them to boost their ego. . Smurfing is highly detrimental to ranked integrity. Even if it provides opportunities, those opportunities are not concrete enough to actually be beneficial for the average player. You will find way more information, both about build and reasoning, in a guide/youtube video, or by simply hiring a coach. And if your only reasoning is that you choose not to watch guides/videos, you don't have high ranked friends, and/or you don't wanna pay for coaching, and therefore other people smurfing against you in ranked is your only access to high level content... That's not really an argument, no offense.

@@nibs1989 If I may offer my perspective as a brand new player. While it's true that you can learn a lot from better players, that only stands when you are in a position to learn from their advanced skill. But as someone who is still working at their base macro competencies, I'm not learning anything when I get obliterated by a smurf. It just ends up being a waste of time that would have better been spent against the AI. 3.5K MMR puts you in a much better position to learn from experienced players than us brand new players sitting around 2.0K

I am SURE by now that you have gotten these same messages again and again by the boatload at this point, but there is something in me that felt the need to thank you from the bottom of my heart. It's a story as old as time.... I played Brood War when I was a child, then dabbled in SC2 before finding interest in other computer and console games. Fast forward to now, I'm 33 and within the last year n a half or so, have stumbled upon a lot of the EXTREMELY entertaining SC2 youtubers such as Vibe, Harstem, Winter, Uthermal, and of course you PiG, being my favorite. Your content definitely got me back into playing but I had and still do have plenty of ladder anxiety which had me doing A.I. games mostly. Your first B2GM gave me the confidence to start giving the ladder a go. To be honest, I wasn't as successful as I was hoping to be, but that came down to me needing to get my mechanics more polished before any hopes of consistent wins. What the first B2GM series did the most for me was help get rid of my ladder anxiety. I know this comment has definitely gotten long enough but I just wanted to say one last thing. I am EXTREMELY proud to be able to say that since this new approach with zerg B2GM series 2, I have won 14/16 matches over the last couple days. Playing on a crappy laptop has made things harder for sure but I swear all of a sudden it all just "clicked" in my head and I look forward to the next volume of your zerg B2GM. PiG - YOU ARE THE MAN. Keep up the great work. Your teaching methods are amazing. Your patience and the way you are able to explain things is top shelf. I am only silver 1 but my small goal is to reach platinum within the week. Keep doing what your doing! Couldn't imagine the SC2 environment as a whole without you.

Hey all, Relm here. I'm the Silver Terran that PiG has the Replay from. For those that may or may not be curious, I've played SC2 on and off since it's first release in WoL (God I loved Satchel Charges.) In terms of actually competitive 1v1's, I've played a few of them on and off through the years but never had the interest that the campaign and more importantly the Arcade had. Recently came back from a resurgence in watching SC2 streamers and casters, and since then I've slowly worked towards helping PiG Organize these B2GM events. I thought it might be fun to try PiG's instructions as an actual Silver Terran. Well, ish. I still even up until early this month played extremely low amounts of games. I decided to try out his 2023 ZB2GM and see what I could do in placement matches. 5 Games later I was Gold 3 and starting to acknowledge issues in my play versus PiG. Camera Locations was definitely a big help, I swapped over to those in my first official matches and it has been a big improvement.

2 bases 5-1-1 is an all in with a timing attack. 3-1-1 means the terran plans to exapdn and go for a longer game or a 2-2 timing. 2-1-1 is a quick double drop agression around 5'20. Gas first and reactor and the first Rax means hellions but you don't know if the terran is going mech or bio. Probably mech if they go for more than 8 hellions. But I think all this is irrelevant until high plat/diamond ( I was doing vibes f2 a move not lloning until plat 1 x))

@devloveswifi4893 Жыл бұрын
I believe you can overwhelm them with a strong timing attack before they can mass a lot of bcs. In the last btgm Zerg he played mass roach and it would crush a player investing so much resource into bc tech which takes a bit too much time. Then of course you scout it just make sure you have reactive spores in your bases and queens ready to react and defend. If you wait too long and let them build up mass bc then it will be veryyyy hard to stop. If you are worried about high ground tanks and running into that then try using a nydus work in their base and maybe 2 prong from front and back with nydus. Hope this helps dude!
@PiGCoaching Жыл бұрын
There are a lot of tells that a terran is turtling. If they expand very slowly. Build lots of turrets. Build a planetary fortress on any base before their 4th base. Any of this means they're turtling. You can either be very aggressive or very greedy vs turtling players. If you're very greedy you can go straight to 6 bases, go up to 90 drones and then just smash ling bane into the enemy denying their bases and never letting them get up a 3rd base. Whilst adding corruptors as needed to deal with BC harass. As long as you keep your worker count up you will have roughly 3x the enemy economy, and even higher as their bases mine out. It will feel trivial once you recognise early enough what's happening and drone up hard enough. Should definitely run into one or two players who play like this in the next episode.

@@PiGCoaching I’m gonna try this approach instead next time. Just always feels scary expanding and droning up so quickly and to such a large scale not knowing when the enemy will attack. In games recently whenever I scout a player going so fast up the tech tree for bc I just go for a overwhelm and drop into main and distract up ramp. Because if they have lots of static and also tech buildings then they can’t also have much army right? Do you think this is a viable option too?

It's all up to how you prefer to play. Taking the forward one is easier to defend from backstabs generally, but easier for enemy frontal pushes to reach your base. Also if you lack anti-air the triangle base is easier for them to drop back and forth from your main and 3rd base, so that can be very annoying as zerg

Why do you do macro hatch instead of taking more bases? Also, why don't you get queens for the macro hatches?
@PiGCoaching Жыл бұрын
We do both. Macro hatcheries first because it's vital to get them up and the 4th/5th base might get denied, and this way it's easier and quicker to start them and add them to control groups. Adding queens for macro hatcheries and every base would mean you're getting way more queens than you ever need. Each queen is 2 supply and 150 minerals - so wasted money and supply that's not drones or army. You also then would have a macro cycle that changes constantly throughout the game. Injecting 3 hatcheries is repetitive and becomes smooth like clockwork. Injecting 3, then 5, then 7 hatcheries gets very slow and takes a lot more attention. In the next episode we'll introduce some creep/defence queens which will do a one-off stack of injects on the macro hatcheries each game, so they'll still produce a lot more larva without affecting our macro cycle habit at all

RTS games are all about learning new systems and feeling overwhelmed, so you just focus on repeating and internalising a few things at a time until they become second nature, then move onto the next thing. It's a slow and steady process that's incredibly rewarding, but takes time

Cloning?? That doesn’t even make sense. Like sure let’s pick a word that has nothing to do with what’s going on. I prefer how you call it “Shift-Deselecting” because that is actually what you’re doing and it makes perfect sense, unlike cloning which doesn’t make sense at all. Not only that but when you research Starcraft 2 cloning you’ll find only articles about “Hybrid Cloning” from the SC-Lore.
