JulyZerg vs Ever (FPVOD)

[@thesuperlee]

Holy cow. Watching those mutas take on archons... JulyZerg truly is fearless.

[@Dinictus]

Basically, keeping his actions per minute high. It's a bit of a groove to get into, selecting, deselecting and grouping units randomly so he can act swiftly in the case of battle.

[@chocobonight]

"Ride of Valkyries" It's the name of the map

[@CameramanJumJum]

They took the sound from the broadcasters point of view, which is why you don't hear the select unit sounds either. And sometimes protoss buildings finishing building etc

[@StarfuryFlames]

basically: apm = actions per minute micro = unit control macro = buildings/economy

[@StarfuryFlames]

or another example: have u ever seen a pro tennis player serve ?..... observe the look of intense concentration on their faces when they're bouncing that ball, they're not just doing it for the hell of it and they're certainly not bored ..... its an anchor, something they do to ground themselves and put themselves in the most ideal of all possible mindsets .....

[@debit256]

you can do it with any race, it just makes then return to the minerals faster after it gives it to the cc,nexus or hat.

[@kjsoccerronaldo10]

if i had a dollar for every pixel i would have 3 dollars

[@detached9]

keeps his hands at a fast rate of speed, so they're "warmed up" for later on when its needed

[@sp0koino]

"God of war" in action

[@merl0c]

Protoss went corsairs because it's really effective if it works. Overlords unless upgraded are scaringly slow and they provide zerg with supplies. A group of corsairs can hunt down overlords easily, and if it's successfull, zerg can't use their "swarm" advantage because they don't have enough supplies. Besides unlike terran and protoss, overlords is built from the same larvae as other zerg units, so taking out overlords forces zerg to play with less units overall.

[@camsquad471]

Used highly 10 years later ;)

[@gunmenow]

Hydralisk pressure then Mutalisk show, lovely zerg

[@jjay75]

ride of the valkyries

[@wak27]

man i love being korean so i can understand ^^

[@yohuh]

I think thats an addiction to good starcraft players because I have a friend who does that!!

[@sythax]

warming up, getting familiar with things like mouse sensitivity (although i'm sure they have it specified down to the pixel) =p

[@Neo0311]

He kept building while he was attacking. Good econ and good macro.

[@IzeTheJukebox]

They do not mine faster, and i doubt it is for "warm up". The point is to group up the teams, and he gets ready to spawn more drones when the larvas spawns, to save time.

[@woneee]

ride of valkyries its the map

[@kuja900]

i think july used this strat v rock in osl today

[@guava_]

the better the Actions Per Minute then the more your active. i know great toss players with around 120 apm. they tear shit up even though they arnt that busy. you dont really need 300+ apm but its good to have

[@Lazerflip]

video on demand

[@suckmydlck]

beautiful muta control. Unreal harrassment on Ever by July. I love watching julyzerg play he is such a great Zerg player. I believe he is to zerg what boxer is to terran.

[@JesusHComedy]

Why does julyzerg keep selecting all his drones in the beginning

[@gMEEE]

so what ur saying is the whole point of apm is to get warmed up? lol i been wonderin bout that for a long time. im korean but i dont play sc like dat :D, im an athlete so i dont bother with that, but i dont play too competitively

[@pwninkev]

more resources.... more mineral income, etc. etc.

[@n4rkot1k]

archons do splash damage vs. stacked mutas?? didnt know at all..

[@jasonyapks]

@dovlex some said to spam apm and get their hand warm up

[@DuraheLL]

Who do you think is the best Zerg player out there? Do you honestly think the best Z player have a chance against the best T player? I always think Z are underpowered against T

[@zamiwas]

he did that just to tick July off, blocking his expansion

[@jasonyapks]

july totally owned ever

[@jyhluk]

thanks for teh major postage....woot

[@merdufer]

I really don't get the archons... Ever seems to be really sure that Julyzerg was not going for mutas or lurkers or adrenal zerglings(queen would be easily accessible)... so what was he expecting?

[@ajaraven]

XD, mutalisks owned those archons

[@yohuh]

I love ZERG!!!!!

[@HCkev]

Omg, so fast. But WTF, he's playing zerg and we hear the protoss music?!?

[@sweetypie2]

i cant see what theyre doing!

[@zfranke3dome]

its to keep them hyped up so they will click that fast when they macro

[@StarfuryFlames]

...... no, its not boredom ..... i used to be a semi-pro quaker and at the beginning of games there'd always be a lot of flicking of wrists going on, making sure u could hit ur 180s and 360s perfectly, dropping to console and tweaking ur sensitivity so it was just so .....

[@Dysania86]

No... ctrl+left click does that.

[@musicandoutdoors]

im sorry but it seems the world has been convinced that being this obssesed with any game is acceptable.

[@florida12341000]

there is no way there isn't like mouse warehouses all throughout Korea and China cause how much the click and move the mouse it must take 2 per day on a good day :)

[@debit256]

he is making them mine faster, he selects them all and presses "c". then he repeats. I have played this game 4 a long time, i know this

[@krzyxbne]

theres really no point in the clickin in the begning. its to get your APM up or to warm up ur fingers and all. but man, you gotta love that muta attack vs. that one archon and those cannons the toss had in his base. nice micro!

[@merdufer]

i haven't been using them much and forgot the fact they were not biological :P

[@Repliva]

Why did he constantly clicking and dragging at the start it's not like they would be any faster. It's kinda excessive but it looks cool

[@cheesecakes4eva]

Yup, people who aren't able to manage minerals choose to eliminate it completely... Hey, if you wanna eliminate mineral management, why don't you get a bot for perfect muta micro too... It's part of the game and you shouldn't just ignore it because you can't do it

[@xhkxboix]

man.. if ya'll could understand what these comentators are saying.. lol.. the whole game they weren't even giving the other person a chance.. from the very beginning they were like "Ever won't be able to tech much because july will just enter his base and force him to defend. even if ever tries to block his main ramp july will just do whatever it takes to penetrate it." and just throughout the whole game they were knocking down ever. haha

[@ouyangzerg]

because they need to warm up

[@anthonynej]

yeah

[@kelv3nT]

beside...keep 'em better concentration...

[@pwninkev]

You mad kid? Quit crying, don't deny the truth. "Also, by replying to this comment you acknowledge that I am right and you are wrong."

[@재미뗘재미뗘]

저때는 뮤짤 개발전인가? 오버 안묶고 걍 피지컬로 뮤탈 뭉치기 하네ㅋㅋ

[@pwninkev]

don't get mad kid, it is. My cousins live there and they're not even close to pro and they average 250+, and they are saying their apm is average around there, don't even talk if you don't know shit.

[@pwninkev]

Yes kid, i pissed you off with one comment without even cursing at you. Don't get pissed off because I proved you wrong. By the way, thanks for acknowledging how correct I am. Kid.

[@pwninkev]

average apm is 100? no more like 120.... i average like 200 but in korea, average apm is atleast 250

[@Seregnaug]

heh These players average 200+ (some of them 350ish) actions per minute. The reason he spams like that is because there isn't anything else for him to do that second. He's trying to keep himself in that mindset of "OMG OMGOMG OMG FASTER!!!!!!! NOWNOWNWOOWGOGOOGOGOGOGO" because if he doesn't his apm will slouch. And if his apm slouch, then his micro, macro and awareness may slouch.

[@iVanNumber1One]

sorry, but MY EYES !

[@susho]

I heard july after this game was arrested because he was considered a rapist ZOMG!!11!!

[@pwninkev]

K says the guy who pissed him self off, all you do is curse at me and diss me and I just piss you off without even saying all that crap, just proves how much more civilized i am, whatever. Just don't cry kthxbye.

[@merdufer]

ya like chessmasters and nba players. they are totally obssessed with games but ppl pay them. seriously, wtf.

[@kuja900]

then that must feel really really good lol..... i need a korean progamer chick

[@jgong]

you do need 300+ apm if ur gonna play in korean leagues. Dont be stupid. There are thousands of ppl in korea with 200 apm and they are considered slow.

[@DMBisAwesome]

nevermind i read the other comments (im an idiot).

[@DMBisAwesome]

omg he is so nasty, he makes toss look like a nub even tho that guy would be able 2 easily destroy me. But why does he keep reselecting his drons thoroughout the game

[@jjay75]

your both wrong by the way. Macro is building units, using an appropriate unit selection and taking expansions. Micro is controlling your units to good effect. how fast you click is important for both of these things. You use a mouse for macro as well btw and a keyboard for micro...dont see where you got those silly ideas, and even less of an idea as to why you laugh at people for saying something else.

[@morbentfel]

o rlhy

[@Neo0311]

SOmeone has to suck. IF both played perfect. the map would run out of minerals. and or gas. and the game would draw.
