Hello again!
I recently made a ZvT fpvod at the D level, with no commentary.
Well now I bring you a ZvP FPvod at the D+ level with Commentary! http://www.youtube.com/user/gumbum8

I'm creating these as I play, so don't think that I'm hand-picking games. This is a game I played just moments ago.
As I said in my last blog post, these are for an English project, so I'm not out to help anyone or something Combat-ex style. I just need to get 10 of these out.

I would appreciate anyone leavin me comments on my play or commentary, seeing as I have 9 more left I would like to get better at commentating. I kindof had no idea what to talk about, so this one is probably awful.

Anyway, I hope you enjoy, and more to come!
Comments plz K thx Bai

but really, has anyone REALLY been far even as decided to use even go want to do look more like?

sorry, but that wasn't too great tbh. aside from it being D+ rank and you piling up a crapload of minerals early on when you got inbase proxied, the commentary was rather bland and there wasn't a whole of lot anything useful in there. it was basically "i went overpool. he proxied in my base. if I had a later pool i would have died. here I killed two zealots so now he basically loses."

I mean you can't except much from a 4:30 game, but still...
I would have probably built a sunk or two and countered with those lings, because he could have done more damage than he did(which was nothing...?). With all those minerals you were building up you could have gotten an earlier 2nd/3rd hatch, gas, and sunkens. when you pulled drones they didn't really do anything either. a few were standing idle for a bit and his gateways/pylons didn't even lose any life, just shield since you didnt target fire too well either.

edit: overall, the game was just not of commentating value imo, and the commentating that was done wasn't too informative, whether it's because of that or a lack of experience.

Well, not bad commentary, considering the game was over pretty quick, I'd like to see a game that goes longer and see what you have to say about mid game and late game play. Overall your micro was pretty good, and I liked how you kept track and kept spending your minerals in case he didn't gg and the game went longer. Anyways, post some more and keep going!

Well, I dont claim to be a good commentator; but I will embarrass myself 9 more times
I will try and add some flavor though.

As for the game, I could have done most anything and won.
And yeah, the drone pull was dumb, but it's not something I encounter often, I won't do it again!

And the project is to blog about anything we want. Its a really weird project for Eng 11, but I wont argue
but really, has anyone REALLY been far even as decided to use even go want to do look more like?
