Scouted the Zerg and he had some Hydras so I tried backing off, but he got one of my VRs. Got 2 more and attacked his gold expansion, but he held me off there for a little bit.
Got Colossi and took that gold expansion out. Took out the gold expansion of the Protoss. Took out the Zerg's natural expansion and then his main.
And then I took out the other Zerg and his expansion. Guy at the end said, "Nice pwnage." haha
I never got attacked once and pretty much rolled these guys. FFA seems very soft.
Edit: Watching the replay, Zerg 1 and Zerg 2 are going back and forth while I'm pretty much building up, taking out the Protoss, building up more, taking out expansions, etc. Zerg 1 says, "Blue (his color), I'm the least of your worries." Zerg 2 says, "I noticed." hahahaha
This is a 100% how FFA works. Sometimes you get attacked by three guys and you WILL die. Just need to get lucky and be the guy that gets left alone by everyone. Trick is sometimes to not piss anybody off and harass because they will be gunning for you hard after that.
Brag: I got promoted into gold.
Beat: I expected to move straight to platinum after beating a couple platinum players. :-(
variance: i managed to end the day with a round W/L record of 30-20
note: 3 Rax is awesome for low level games but fails versus turtlers.
