After making this blog, where I got some good advise I went to play vs some terrans again.

And then I played THE game of my life!! I am so proud! This guy played really well. He made bunker rush, was korean, played very well, had 15 - 0 against zerg, etc etc, but I just responded perfectly to everything he did (and was).

So because I am so proud and happy I made a blog and here is the rep. Mind you I am a B- zerg, once was B.

[image loading]


Hope you enjoy.

Bonus info:
+ Show Spoiler +
He disced when I had crealy won ^^


Disclaimer: When I say the game of my life, I dont mean its a really close game or with a fun ending, where I almost lost. Its a game where I feel I played almost perfect and took the right descitions and thereby owned my opponent I almost every aspect, even though he played very well too (imo).

This makes me very excited to watch it, going to go do so now.

Okay, i watched it. Basically it was just you owning a player like 50 apm under yourself, it wasn't that you did everything right (although you weren't bad) it was that he did everything wrong, and his control was really sloppy. He completely forgot about building his expo CC for nearly a minute! He just left it half built for no reason.

You played much better than in the other replay. You did well but I think you should play vs better terrans from now on... because if this is your best game ever you should really play some more! You can get much better games than this one I'm sure.
After he failed that bunk rush he couldn't do anything during the whole game. He just sit there and tried to keep up with your macro. Props to you for not letting him take too much advantage.
When you started harrassing with the mutas you could have tried to make some damage to the depots in the wall and barracks (many free kills there).
And I insist, please make that 3rd hatch on your min only expansion, or even in a gas expansion, since he FE'd after such a huge disavantage.

That was pretty good, you kinda lost control of your drones there a bit at the beginning, im guessing to make lings or something, but you prob could have taken out his rines. Also you probably could've taken your 4th a lot faster then you did and go ultraling swarm. Probably could have ended that game sooner, you seemed to be playing much better than him.
how reasonable is it to eat off wood instead of your tummy?

Yeah, it was exactly because I had to build lings. ^^
It didnt feel as if I was playing better, because he just kept throwing so much shit at me. At least thats how it felt in the game. I guess from a viewers perspective it migth look different.

Yeah but on iccup I have run into so many good players at my current rank, but I'll try to climb some more and face better terrans. I want to become b+ this season, at least I hope so, probably wont happen.

Hehe ok. As I said it didnt feel like I was completely owning him. Felt like I was just taking the right descitions (on a knifes egde) and then in the end I could finally break him.

Well played ^^. Although I think I agree with some of these comments like that 3rd hatch you threw down, may as well place it at the safe expo. Also you could have expanded to a 4th faster too. In general though well played.
