I think you've done an excellent job with these videos. I wonder whether the people who thought they weren't helpful even watched them. There were some things NaDa talked about in his first video that I thought were really interesting.



1. Building the Supply Depot in the bottom left of the CC when the minerals are to the right helps the SCVs spawn closer to the mineral line, and the constructing SCV spends little time away from minerals (already knew this one).



2. Sneaking out 1 Vulture early on will make the Protoss player a lot more careful and defensive even if you don't do anything with it.



3. 8 Factories are all you need even in the late-game.



4. When the Protoss player goes for fast Arbiters, it can be disastrous if he manages to get the Recall off in the Terran main (when T has 3 bases). Other Recalls need to be cleaned up asap while taking minimal worker casualties.



5. Try to prevent the Protoss player from taking an open main.



I noticed a couple other things as well.



6. NaDa lifted the Barracks and Engineering Bay and used them to block the ramp at the 3rd and float over the ridge at his natural to spot for Arbiters and Shuttles, respectively.



7. He pushes out and destroys the 1 o' clock natural, followed by the 12 o' clock base, followed by the 9 o' clock base, followed by the 8 o' clock bases. He then took his 4th at the 8 o' clock natural.



8. Spreading his Siege Tanks out at the 8 o' clock position allowed him to defend against Recalls on top of his units very easily.



The second TvP video you posted was really interesting also. It showed the strategy and reasoning behind Bunker rushing in TvP in response to a double Nexus. NaDa's mom thinks the Reaver is the cutest unit in StarCraft (very cool trivia =]). Setting a mine at the 3rd and checking to see if the Protoss put up his Nexus again proved to be really useful, since it led him to think the Protoss player was going all-in.



I look forward to seeing more of your videos. Keep up the good work, mate~



Sincerely,
