that depends. was the zerg's name july?

also just played a terran who turtled hard, took 3 bases and made no other units except tanks and blue flame. nothing else (i mean like 4 marines but that's it). no thors. no marines. no marauders. nothing. just blue flame and hellions. 20 mutalisks killed his entire 150 supply army.

???

how far has my mmr fallen.

i just played a 38 min zvp where i maxed out when the toss was at 110 supply but could never attack cause it's TDA and he had everything walled off on one side and would continually forcefield me off on the other. i could flirt with him until he got literally 1 colossi on the field which of course completely shuts down any zerg attempt at an attack at all, supply be damned.

so i took everyone's advice and made a bunch of spines, took some bases and got bl/corruptor/infestor. i had 220 supply when he attacked he had 20. i was on around 85 drones and had a megaton of larva left over.

he didnt warp in any units at all during the main engagement and he lost 27 in supply.

3 remaxes later i killed his army and made a new bl/roach/corruptor army. then he sent 8 DTs to all of my expos and proceeded to virtually one shot all of them. i had to pull my rocahes to deal with them or i was dead (i had 2 spores and 3-4 spines at every base but LOL at that dealing with the invisible unit which one shots hatcheries)

so as soon as i pull my roaches he engages my bl/corruptor. if i dont pull my roaches, every single one of my expos dies, as the invisible unit does so much damage you need to send a ton of roaches to deal with them.

apparently bl/infestor is really imba and needs to be nerfed. can someone fill me in on what i did wrong? he has 7-8 colossi during the main engagement, i stay back and dont engage until he blinks under. he has void rays and hts too. i layer fungals and a move with my roaches when he blinks under my bls. the broodlings are 3/3 and i have +1 air.

what in the **** am i doing wrong? why do my armies just dissolve in the face of protoss? how do people kill colossi? i have not won a game where villain made more than 3 colossi off 3 base or more in probably a month. 3 colossi = karak instantly loses.

you shouldn't be letting his stalkers blink under your broodlords. it lets them focus fire them really fast. you want to always have your roaches right below your broods so that less stalkers can actually hit them.

I have the sickest ladder anxiety ever. Everytime I open the game my heart beats like crazy. No wonder I've played like 20 games total this year.

I bet it would go away if you just forced yourself to keep queueing up.

apparently theres a new "flower bug" similar to the old lost temple where you can find zerg's base through fog of war if a certain tree is shaking. lol

talked yesterday with a friend about sc2 and he told me that he lost a game because of Hallucination, he said he had a robo but when the opponent came he hallucinated collosi which destroyed his FF in PvP. Is that really possible?

I hear this all the time and I gotta admit, I just don't get it.

Unless you're trying to go pro, why take it so seriously to the point that you barely even play the ladder?

And holy ****, I just had a decent breakthrough.

I remember seeing one of those meme poster thingys with the black preacher guy (too damn high!) that was commenting on what the major problem is with most bronze/lower level guys.

It said they typically don't even get close to enough workers. After watching some replays of myself and others and focusing on the amount of scv's I was getting I realized I fit that description to a T. My first few games getting a more optimal amount of scv's it's made a huuuuuge difference.

I still suck, but it's at least a step in the right direction.

think ive fixed most of the issues that cropped up in the last week, altho i did lose a game tonight that i played beautifully until the T moved out with his very marine heavy force and i realized i forgot bane speed :-O.

other than some things i need to get worked out in zvp... i think my game is back? had some nice wins vs Ts tonight and i dont think i lost any ZvZs. was mostly getting matched with 800-850+ peepz.

Jesus:

My first PvZ since a long time:

I go FE and block his Hatch with a pylon and I`m like super ahead(He was super greedy)... I know he has to allin me now. I see the Nydus, kill it the first time, the second time I didnt get it because I`m so unreal slow... didn`t lose the game there yet and put up a big fight but he was way to ahead then.

Second PvZ:

Taldarim Altar, I want to Forge-FE again, I go scout and see that he did a pretty fast scout himself and thought that something fishy was going on. Somehow I still thought **** it and was greedy... I fast realized he really 7 pooled me on taldarim. GG.

After that I had a PvP.

PvP was my strongest matchup and prolly still is. I decided to go a Incabuild(Blink with hidden expo which is far away from my base). He goes for a 1base timeingattack with colossi and I go for the basetrade. Somehow I had a lot of minerals because he supply blocked me pretty fast and I knew he has no expo and only like 5 workers. I had a forge and just started to build a lot of canons. With the stalkers I sniped his colossi and he tried to break me but I had to much canons. That was pretty intense.


I had fun till I got 6 pooled, I tilted pretty hard then.

i think when you FFE, you need to send out that second probe to scout and find him if you haven't with your initial. it can be too devastating if you scout him last and lings are streaming to your base.

ROFL WHAT A ****ING ******^

2 port banshee is an amazing build. one of those builds you can 100% scout coming and still lose to. he just let all of his banshees die to my mutas while focusing my hatch down, reactored out vikings nad marines, made 2 tanks and then GG. truly incredible race terran is.

gsl spoiler:

Spoiler:
after watching july vs mvp last night it really depresses me for the state of the match up. any terran who cries about infestors/bls/whatever being imba can piss off lol.

Comment about GSL

Spoiler:
MVP outplayed July pretty badly. He made a good tech switch that countered what July was doing perfectly. You would never fault a zerg for switching into roaches against zealot archon and while it's maybe not as obvious/ridiculous, there are similarities.

July also threw away tons of bls and corrupters to cloaked ghosts and vikings that were out of fungal range.
