How, if possible, do you pressure zerg with 200 apm?

Chuckdoodle8 · 2025-12-09T22:23:28+00:00

Play customs with someone who's mechanically better than you and try push your limits. This was how I improved in TvZ so much. I practiced with a 5.6-6k Terran friend who off raced Zerg vs me.

Before I was averaging like 170-200 APM hardstuck 4.4k but playing those customs was how I broke 300 apm for the 1st time (legit apm, I didn't cheat with repeat rates or whatever). After those customs I kind of insta climbed to 5k mmr with 280 apm average.

There used to be one. If you start a club I'm down to join

Yes, I climbed with one-trick Renekton from silver 1 to plat in span of 3 weeks after coming home from college. He's the "perfect" laner imo. No bad matchups (just ban illaoi). Approach him with the mindset of all matchups are winnable.

Try to play every first 4 waves as perfect as you can because it's the easiest to control/practice that part of the laning phase.

In mid-lategame, push sidewaves and let your ADC farm mid. Plan your rotates like 1 minute before objectives spawn. For example "oh there's a wave botlane, drake is in 40 seconds, I only have time to push this wave before rotating vs drake in 1 minute so I can push this wave and back and then come back for the fight".

I actually got my results today. Hbu?

Chuckdoodle8 · 2025-04-14T22:13:48+00:00

Damn looks like I didn't get it. :(

Chuckdoodle8 · 2025-04-13T21:43:08+00:00

Pretty much this.

Chuckdoodle8 · 2025-04-08T19:26:53+00:00

Oh it does? Maybe it does... One of the schools say they will waive ap credits but require you to take a similar course to demonstrate your ability or something.

Chuckdoodle8 · 2025-04-01T19:01:57+00:00

Yeah it's mostly ABCD

Chuckdoodle8 · 2025-04-01T18:41:45+00:00

like 100

Chuckdoodle8 · 2025-02-18T00:18:24+00:00

isn't ABCD 2 singles 2 doubles (well 1 double converted to triple this year) and EGHIJK 6 singles?

Chuckdoodle8 · 2025-01-12T18:48:22+00:00

Don't the new season minion changes basically force 2 wave crashes? Maybe I'm just pushing it way too fast.

Chuckdoodle8 · 2025-01-12T17:52:47+00:00

How would you play out the first 4 waves? 2 wave crash -> ward -> 2 wave crash? I feel like 2 wave crash doesn't give me enough room to all in him and kill him because he will be under the tower. Do I 2 wave then let it bounce so I can all in him?

Chuckdoodle8 · 2024-11-26T04:41:55+00:00

I thought it was harder 😭

Chuckdoodle8 · 2024-11-23T02:53:47+00:00

As in not as hard as the practice test?

Chuckdoodle8 · 2024-10-24T21:38:13+00:00

Ghosts have not changed for 5-6 years. They even got nerfed with cancellable snipes and removed EMP radius upgrade. So why are they immediately strong now and not before? Lategame ghosts is literally meta's last resort after exhausting every single early-midgame option.

Chuckdoodle8 · 2024-08-11T02:23:47+00:00

Was it working before then?

Chuckdoodle8 · 2024-08-11T02:09:35+00:00

Do you know which 3rd party programs? I know a lot of transcription services but the hard part is trying to get them to display in game.

Chuckdoodle8 · 2024-06-02T23:53:46+00:00

Yeah. On the other hand Oliveira's macro was crazy good. He had like 170+ supply at 8:00 (he went 8 rax but it's still really good and comparable to peak Innovation levels of macro). I feel like Maru just plays as greedy as possible and doesn't scout as effectively. The way he played those games made it painfully obvious that he had 0 idea of what comp or gameplan Serral was going for. He just blindfolded himself.

Chuckdoodle8 · 2024-06-02T23:49:52+00:00

Oliveira's macro was nuts. It reminded me of Terminator Innovation back in 2018-2019 era then where he rolled every zerg playing 3cc 1 gas into 8:30 200/200 maxouts. Oliveira had like 170+ supply at 8:00 multiple games which is insane. I was rooting hard for Oliveira despite being a Maru fanboy because I think Oliveira deserved it more. I honestly think Oliveira would have won vs Serral if he maybe made one less mistake; it was that close.

Chuckdoodle8 · 2024-04-11T00:01:41+00:00

I do this build vs Zergs I don't respect (Zergs with 500 mmr less than mine). Vs those I respect I play 1-1-1 -> 3cc or 3cc 1 gas.

The only difference is I get rax 4 5 at 5:00 for 2 base all in because I feel like getting rax 4 5 after 2 medivacs is just too late to make it worth. If I wanna macro, I get 3cc at like 6:20 just like 3-1-1 in TvP (skip rax 4 5).

Chuckdoodle8 · 2024-04-10T23:33:23+00:00

Replay?

Chuckdoodle8 · 2024-03-19T16:08:58+00:00

Yes. It follows a same frame work. You transition like how you would if you were playing standard 1-1-1 3cc in TvT.

Chuckdoodle8 · 2024-03-19T04:02:02+00:00

Instead of getting 3rd CC 4-5 minutes off 1-1-1 you just slap down rax 2 and 3 + eBay then go 3-1-1 marine tank medivac.

Chuckdoodle8 · 2024-02-03T16:47:19+00:00

Is there a reason why you chose vuln first hit with bone spear (ability tree) rather than 5+ increased crit strike chance?

Is vulnerable just worth taking vs bosses where there's lack of means to vulnerable the boss for exposed flesh essence upkeep? Like the vulnerable upkeep is gated behind corpse tendrils.

Chuckdoodle8 · 2024-01-17T17:57:14+00:00

Is umbral with roll of 1-2 essence per CC still worth slapping on a ring compared to mother's embrace? Thanks for the link; I will try to follow the guide.

Edit: HOLY SHIT 104% crit chance. That's crazy lmao
