First, if you keep going in the Blues course you will find plenty of challenging material. And there is even material exactly like that video you linked. From Chapter 4:

So I encourage you to keep going in the courses. You can even skip ahead if you are confident that you have the earlier material under your command!

[quote=mathieurevel]Is there anywhere in Guitartricks lessons where you learn a variety of cool licks to practice (and not chasing a song that has a lick in it), something that would explain how you connect chords with single note picking to make cool arrangement and keeping up with the tempo (and have something less repetitive, giving some color and musicality).

Sure, I've got plenty of tutorials like that. This will depend on your skill level, they start at beginner & get progressively more difficult.

Blues in E For Beginners

E Blues Rhythm & Lead

I have 6 of these type.

There are also these that contain bass lines & chord tones with fills. The first one starts with just the basic technique.

Then I start adding turnarounds & licks!
