So I've been having a lot of trouble with ZvZ on Scrap Station because my roach heavy style doesnt really fit well with that map. I figured since the rush distance is really long, I would try going hatch first and see how that feels.

Of course I was scared as shit when my overlord got to his base and saw that he had 6 pooled, and was even bringing his drones for offensive spine crawlers + attacking. I almost GG'd right there because I thought I was completely boned.

Replay is here, more in depth (and spoiler-y) description follows: http://sc2.replayers.com/replays/view/3957

+ Show Spoiler +
When I saw all his shit leaving his base, I was just thinking "Holy shit, come on 200 minerals" so I could place my spawning pool. When I got 200 minerals, I just went "fuck it" and made 3 drones instead. When he got to my base I had 16 drones and my pool just started.

To make this game even more sweet, it snapped a 7 game lose streak.

I know right.

Side note: Despite our APMs this game, it was a 1000~ point diamond game. I guess not much APM happening in a 4 minute game or whatever. :/

So around 1000 points. I'd gather that's D rank on iCCup? So I mean I wouldn't really expect more than 40 SC2 APM anyways haha.

I have a confession to make. In BW, I had close to 200 APM without too much spamming and was still D/D+ on iCCup. I was like the epitome of APM not meaning everything (or in my case, anything at all.)

Yes, they do.

and gz on your win!

I was thinking about doing research on timing like this (in SC1 you get 6 lings from 9 pool around the time 6 lings from 4 pool arive at your base)

I have only noted that you need 4 workers to kill off a gateway before a boasted zealot comes out, im so lazy
