Hey guys, this is my first attempt at an audio. Just so you know, I'm not a great player. In fact, I consider myself to be maybe just slightly above average. I'm level 27 on Azeroth with a win percentage a bit above 50%. This is the account I've learned on from the beginning. Anyway, my intent with this (and any future) audios is to help out my noob brothers out there that are just trying to get a little better at this Warcraft thing. So, please don't flame me for not being a great player. I don't claim to be one. And don't expect truck-loads of "expert" advice. I'll impart whatever wisdom and insight I have and if it helps you out, then great. If not, well, you were warned. ;)

Having made that disclaimer, this is a Human mirror match on Twisted Meadows that helps illustrate some basic mistakes that many people make. I hope this helps a few people out. I welcome your feedback as well (especially if this was helpful for you in any way, shape or form).

Don't feel like you're not helping anyone, because even if the people who listen are at a higher skill level, insight is helpful for anyone to improve themselves. Because wisdom comes in all forms, from different places, and perspectives. I may be aware of alot of things you talked about, but.. that doesn't mean I didn't pick up on insight, or reinforced strategy, like why it's not good to do this, and it will help it stick in my mind enough times, if I hear it over and over, and then eventually do it all the time. So I would tell you, great job, and don't stop making audios. Hope to see more. :P

lol I dont know man, shadowdrake might post on your commentary and say its for noobs. just because hes that gosu. HAHA, but anyways nice man, Ill def. check it out, we need more people who are willing to do member audios. So keep it up.


Edit: Ok, just listened to it, and I have to say, I thought you did an excellent job. I have to admit, I did learn something, so, definitly keep making these audios. Plus, I must agree, you have a good voice for this sort of thing. So great job and keep it up.

Really nice audio you explained a lot. You didn't seem like you was that bad of a player btw.

Well done, Spydog! For your first audio you did a great job. Your delivery was polished and you were obviously well prepared. I appreciate the fact that you admitted a couple of your mistakes. We all learn from mistakes, our own or from another...

As a noob myself, I like the "by a noob, for a noob" approach... though you hardly seem like a true "noob" (how many surrounds did you have in that game??!!) These are the kinds of audios that I wish were around when I started playing!! Watching the Gosu players is great, but their level of play is way over my head... I'm looking forward to your next audio!

PEACE!!

I live in Virginia, just outside of Washington, DC. So, I guess it's possible that I could have a slight southern accent. :)

i'm not gonna lie that it was totally new for me and i didn't know any of these stuff (i knew them all) but you've done a great great job putting commentery in your replay. i know some people who can really use these kind of audios to improve their gameing. hope to c u soon with another one
