Anyone else got trouble with their gomtvaccount? I had my password saved for the site and it seems that no combination of email/password from me works anymore.

I've also beaten two GMs this season, but they both tried to cheese me

fametoflame did a 7pool+spine on xel'naga, and google tried the most ******ed creeping cannon rush (from left pathway at the top natural on xel'naga) into proxy void ray. Wish I had been able to get some straight up games.

On the other hand...2-0 baby.

ohhh you do the 10 pool zvz allpin build. <3 that build. yeah i do it with +1 these days too. **** burrow too much effort to micro + they all get spores anyways cause they think it's muta or burrow move or something.

I usually 12 or 13 pool. I'm not sure about the optimal pool timing.

LOL best game in 2on2 ever I`m still totally stressed out. We contain our opponents with our forgewallinstrat and I thought they were pretty much dead but somehow they managed to live through. Then a nydus pops and everywhere units. I was under so much stress and my ally loses his mainbase and one of them writes in chat: Sup Son?(It really looked close) I managed to clean everything up and then my macro started to kick-in(I ninjaed an a third in all that chaos too) and I chronoboosted collosi out of 2 robos and just roflstomped them(8 Collosi vs Roaches/Stalkers = lol) and typed:

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Such a fun game

yeeeaaaah

just won a 1v1 where I was (once again) being revealed but he quit out when the countdown was at like 12 seconds. woulda been bull**** if i lost though cuz i had about a million marines to his ~15 mutas.

i guess when we're base trading and i have the edge army wise i should insta build 3-4 cc'ers to prevent myself (or at least stall) from being revealed?

you should just build ccs because you might need to rebuild to kill him

So when we begin base trading and I have nothing for defense I should send scv's away from my base that's being attacked ASAP and get a few CC'ers down, both so I don't get revealed and so I can keep my economy going if the battle continues beyond the base trading.

Makes sense.

(lol this all probably seems so trivially obvious to you guys. sorry for the noob questions in the bbv thread)

Played 17 games today. 392 more bonus pool to go. (Prob gonna stream all these games if anyone is interested.)

Was rusty at first, but towards the end started to feel real confident about my control.

Just wish I could stop Terrans who take fast thirds.

some guy just copied kiwikaki's build vs stephano identically vs me... down to the very end of being lost beyond all hope and somehow pulling it out with an absolute miracle of an archon toilet that roasted 15 brood lords and a dozen corruptors

looks like i exaggerated the #s a tad, but not so much

here's a vid of the mothership rape

i just did the instinctual thing and flew the rest of my BLs into it once 3/4s of my army got sucked in. i was microing a ling counter elsewhere on the map at the time and peeked back and FREAKED out when i saw the vortex/moship and just did that.

woops.

I prefer requiem for a tower, but that's neither here nor there. I've had similar situations occur, but luckily a big spine defense bought me the time to get out more forces. It still pains me to see all those BLs go down so fast X.x
