I'm more of a Brood War guy. But if I ever do play I'm shooting straight to plat. Because zerglings. Cannon rushers are no match! Then I will hit a literal wall and I'll have to figure out how to play a real macro game.
All of that build up, with mixing, visual flair, beats and dance, just to stop and yell JUST GO KILL HIM was brilliant. You are a master of your craft, thank you.
The issue with most players is they don't think (talking below diamond 3 or even at diamond level) about their plan and what to do in certain situations.I've been away from the game for couple of years and I starter playing again 2 weeks ago.The first week I haven't play a single game.Just watching vods and replays,studying the new meta,how everything works.After this I went on vs AI games just to practice all possible build orders vs all races (I play terran btw) and then I start playing ladder.Which got me into D3 with 5 games.Understanding the game will help you a lot more than ''Oh I'm gonna rush this guy with 7 gate charge/lots,if it works,it works''. What works for me is I play macro like 95% of my games.3CC openings with 2 bays starting all my upgrades,transition into 3,5,8 racks (starting from 1/1/1 most of the games,if playing bio) and then starting to harras denying his 3rd base,etc.Always try to attack at 2 different places at the same time,do multiple drops.Don't focus all your energy on microing (this will come with the more practice),just playing the perfect macro game will get you to D2/D1 and above,because players below that level don't even follow the right build orders,so that makes you ahead just with defending and macroing.
Winter I just wanted to say that I really enjoy your content. You're a very witty caster and also a great teacher for people like me who learn best through humiliation. :D I just recently came back to SC2 after not playing for 9 years and even though I'm Gold it's still as fun as I remember it. Keep up the awesome work.
52:41 After 3 BC's jump into his mineral line, it literally takes him 30 seconds to use his reactor starport to start building vikings. 30 seconds of "ill just chase them around with my marines" 20 of those seconds is marines running into a wall because they can't fly. it took 20 seconds of "my marines can't run up this wall" to think to build vikings.
He tabbed over the tech labbed factory that makes terrans 2 best answers to BCs 97 times after scouting the starports, to the time that the BCs were dead. 2 Cyclones kill them almost without any micro at all, especially when the bcs dont have yamato and the clones have MFA. alternatively, if you like a much shorter engagement, 3 widow memes magically evaporate them instantaneously. you can almost burrow them AFTER the jump intiates and the BCs wont be able to escape the lock ons after completing the jump. Zero of either unit was actually built. Either answer OR six vikings cleaned it up and won the game with 5 marines without a second thought.
Honestly, any amount of literally any terran unit that can shoot up or print its own turrets/turn off the BCs would have saved him a great deal of heartache here. Even 20 more marines.
The best tip I can give my low level brothers is that shift click attack on SCV when they are just building first rax works all the way up to diamond. Don’t stop doing it. But be smart, get in kill get out. Boom you’re ahead. if you play Terran yourself just know you’re breaking a code of honor, but you never had any to begin with, so why start now.
I always send out my dickhead drone to delay that first barracks. You always get first hit and if you are paying attention you can first hit the SCV they send to defend the builder if they do, either way you usually get 1 free worker kill maybe 2
Winter, if you are open to suggestions, I humbly propose: Cast Wars Imagine WinterStarcraft and LowkoTV merging into a "Kenny vs Spenny"esque Starcraft 2 series of challenges of Bo5`s, intense micro battles, Arcade, Viewer vs Viewer or even TD - if you will - fighting for glory or humiliation. Power overwhelming! Ps You know you gotta make the dirty esports money.
Something clicked when you talked about not buying vegetables I'm not going to eat anyways. Not sure why I add reactors to my starports/barracks when I'm trying to mech....
You might think we don't come to you to learn, but I enjoy watching random players despite being a Zerg player because I personally think you can't get better if you don't know the strengths and weaknesses of all the races.
You know something Winter. I rather like seeing you actually try. I know you've drowned in pools before, but, I think if you decided to settle down with a nice Terran(or zerg because let's be real Protoss can't win) that you could take at least a small tournament or 2. I would watch that. Maybe you could do what Lythero does and get someone else to commentate for you during practice so you can focus more. It seems to work out pretty well for him and he's ANYTHING but a pro. But he's won tournaments.
i used to play on 16,000 dpi but i scaled it down because my mouse began to malfunction (probably because it became that much more sensitive to dirt). fun fact: dpi is not necessarily a measure of your input sensitivity. you can scale your sensitivity down while maintaining a high dpi and then u get the fine precision of a high dpi while playing on the sensitivity of ur liking (in reality u have to clean ur mouse way too much)
I have zero co-ordination in my fingers and have found using Grid Hotkeys much easier than default or any custom. Gone from Plat zerg to Random Diamond in a season after learning it. It helps me but it's not for everyone
22:22 man, I forgot how much normal people suck with blink, and in fact, how much normal people suck at games in general. Those were not, strong protoss power blinks.
I just love all the races equally but yeah I agree it hurts my mmr but I’m better and guessing why the opponent is doing too and I never say one race is op
old school gamers didn't have the option to raise or lower DPI so they used virtual dpi. if you look at most games the multiplier only goes to maybe x3 or 5. go on counter strike source and it goes way up. depending on what server you played on some people were surgical with the m7 shotgun since there was 1 pellet that always hits the same spot so on a 720 monitor that was basically 1 pixel if you aimed spawn to spawn on iceworld. there was a handful of people who played on a really high multiplier and basically used the m7 as a sniper rifle walking around doing 360's like an aimbot xD. but yeah starcraft is pretty basic, use 800 and pretend dpi doesn't exist lol, comfort over speed. I still think lan is better then ladder for practice.
I fucking found Lowko before WinterSC, so I went off of his “great video” of how to setup hot keys, and the great “benefit” of playing with Grid “like not being able to effectively play Brood War anymore without rebinding every freaking hot key. Unfortunately for me, I learned how to play SC2 this way. Do ANY pro’s use grid? I’ve thought about switching back, but I imagine it would be much like learning to throw with your left hand. That being said, I don’t struggle with grid. It’s easy, it’s comfortable. I switched the SAA to ~ (so I can use F1 for camera location 1) and idle workers to H.
@@tomhill3248 I remember a 1v1 i had against a Protoss that tried to fly in a warp prism with 4 dts. He failed and before leaving called me a "F. A. G"" for denying him his win. played agaisnt him a second time and he tried the same shit and failed and just rage quit. I had like six turrets or more around my base covering all corners.

I watch hours and hours of educational SC2 videos from you but I still haven't played for around 8 years. :D
I've recently quit the game, but I still watch a winter SC every now and again :D
Same here
A testament to how entertaining and good winter is!

Winter's reaction when he realized you could take the gold as your 3rd was great. I've been doing that myself as well, lol.
Not that you need it, but.

1:22:05 Winter's passion, watching actual good gameplay. Winter's reality, appeasing the RUclips viewership with blh and angry coach.
I think it's so adorable how many starcraft toys he has lol.
About 15 minutes late, but since its an Angry Coach Marathon, I'm totally fine with it!
Finaly, the format we've all been waiting for.
"I'm going to be a cheeky fucking barracks boy!" LOL OMG bro keep going
The best thing that Winter has invented is three strikes that helps him to save time and gain more money.
Love these videos, have helped me to come back and play again this game in a serious way :) thanks Winter!
This is the comment that complains about the clapping.
Kaktanternak for real though, I thought for sure he was going to turn that off
i love the clappin
yes
Its pretty annoying lol and its not gonna get managed well as he says
"Managed well" LUL
The whole starport reactor vegtable rant. I understand how that could put a bit a strain on your voice
Holy shit the intro to this video is actually self reflection and honest. I wasn't subbed before but you earned it there, @winterstarcraft
I feel so called out with the vegetables. Cook half for a dish then just let them decay.
As a passive aggressive strike I went to my fridge and ate some raw celery and tomatoes because he made me hungry.
Holy crap, that battlecruiser one just hurt to watch...
I appreciate the work that went into making the clapping audience ravi made but I am not used to it yet

This is fine :V
THOSE WINTER ADVERTICEMENTS lol
happy birthday brotha!!! ty for all you do!!!
Winter I think angry coach just raises your stress level and blood pressure
Watched all 4 hours thanks for the amazing content
The timing of the adept at 1:49:07 is impeccable
12:20 yeah, electrical engineers say phase shift pretty often
fair comment since i listen to that shit a fuck ton of time (as electrical engineer student some years ago)
Maybe you should do a retake on the announcer voice pack as an angry coach, who knows maybe the point will come across like that.
I love the 3 strikes angry coach
While I love BLH, there's ALWAYS room for Angry Coach - thank you, Winter!
I used to call my refrigerator "the rotting cupboard".
Something clicked when you talked about not buying vegetables I'm not going to eat anyways.

Yeah the clapping did bother me lol. But thanks for the angry coaching!
Winter, cut the silence at the beginning of "we got em" sound clip pls - by the time the words actually come out the game is already over.
In the simulator you didnt give the protos 1-1 that is why the stalkers looked good
He did give them +1 attack, just like in the game
3:22:25 love you winter :D
What is the Song at 13:00 called?
3:09:47 You mean your twitch-exclusive birthday stream?

Those were not, strong protoss power blinks.
I was asleep until 2:58:30. What other gems have i missed?
That midroll ad by 59:00 is pretty convincing. Might buy me one later on idk.
Hope you had a nice birthday!
Can some one please tell me how to access that mode he used to show the stalkers on helion action?
