I was wondering if anybody would like to teach me how to make these impressive builds I see in multiplayer games as fast as I've seen the pros do it. I want to learn Zerg and Terran builds and when to start making them, because I've often found myself still mining resources while the enemy has a massive rush knocking at the front door of my base.
I'm xXCrocmonXx @USEast.

Hm...I might be able to help you with Zerg, although I'm not much of a Z player anymore. As for Terran, I have clan mates who can help you with that. The thing is, we're not USEasters.

Op L]SF[L@USWest if you really want the help.

Weekdays
Standard operation times are from 5:00PM - 12:00AM PST.
Standard peak hours are from 7:00PM - 10:00PM PST.

Weekends
Standard operation times are from 1:00PM - 1:00AM PST.
Standard peak hours are from 2:00PM - 4:00PM PST and 7:00PM - 11:00PM PST.

Or you can contact any nL members for private lessons, absolutely free of charge. Lesson times vary according to members. Here's a breakdown of who's qualified to teach what:

nL.Doomgaze - Basic and Advanced Protoss/Basic Zerg
nL.Illusion - Basic and Advanced Terran/Basic and Intermediate Protoss/Basic Zerg
nL.Aokces - Basics and Advanced of any race
RHCP173 - Basic and Advanced Terran/Basic Zerg

And that's all I can think of at the top of my mind. But yea, if you want lessons, you'll have to come to USWest, since everyone who can give you lessons are all Westers. Hope you don't mind too much. Or we can negotiate or something. But you're going to have to give more details.

But if you want some straight up build orders, I got one for Zerg, which is based around Lurkers, because I hate mutas. But that's because I suck at microing with mutas.

8ovie, 9pool, 11creep, 12hatch/extract, 13ling/creep, 14ovie, 15lair, 16den, 17expo.

Something like that anyways. After that, you get some more lings and hydras, and as soon as that lair is done, research lurks. Or if you don't want to, you can quickly get a queen's nest for hive tech so you can start d swarming or something. But yea, that's one of my favorite builds since November 06.

Okay, I will setup a USWEST account the next time I can get on Battle.Net, and I'll contact you guys ASAP. I've also found that I can build up a decent Toss defence on Fastest maps, but my attacking force is somthing I need to work on.

Fastest? Er...do you want to learn standard melee, or FME stuff? I can do both, since I used to play fastest too.

I have learned to fill bottlenecks up in standard melee maps as well. For Toss, I can build defences, and decent ones, given about five minutes. On fastest maps, I can hold out for quite a long while, given I've had enough time to make my protective ring of photon cannons around my geysers and minerals. I often find myself trying to climb the entire tech tree, while most people pick a specific tier of it, and then they quickly school me. One example of this is a fastest map I played TvP with someone who called hemself a noob. He built about fifty Zealots, destroyed my Barracks, and left. I quickly rebuilt and sent four mixed groups of Marines and Firebats with a few Medics to counter, and he had a small army of high templar that were merging as I entered the base. The archons split into groups, half of the groups crawled up my attack, and destroyed my base, being rather sadistic in destroying my workers as I used all of my resources to build Wraiths, but the rest of the groups stayed and decimated my forces. After all of my other buildings were wasted, he just huddled the Archon groups around my final Comman Center, and he sent me a message: "Gullible." and then his Archons destroyed my final outpost as I lifted off and tried at an escape. I am still burned by that memory.

Anyways, I have changed my mind after playing Toss Campaign: I am wanting to become somewhat proficient in Toss and Zerg, and I'm not really worried about Terran as much.

Alright then. Although I don't think the campaigns really help too much in player versus player games.

I know AI is completely different from Human, but, I use Campaign as a way to find out what strategies I can do fast. I'm getting on USWEST here in a few minutes.

FME and Melee are both very different in the end. Well, you can adapt your melee strategies into FME games, but it doesn't work the other way around. Of course, even with melee > FME strats, you need to alter things a bit. But yea, you should remember what you need work on.
