So I guess this little blog will mainly discuss the evolution of my strategy as time goes on. I started playing SC2 towards the end of phase1 and have played pretty much constantly since then. Since I have mostly only competed in FPS I was pretty terrible when I first started playing SC2. I started in copper league and made it to gold by the end of phase 1, and made it to gold again in phase 2. After I finally improved enough to deal with endless void ray rushes, and learned to check for cheese in every match (especially on those two player maps) I improved a bit. On launch day I went 5-0 on placement and eventually moved up to Diamond where I've been clawing my way up the ladder, roughly 100pts a week or so, though I expect that to slow sooner or later. Currently around 1100pts. I think my strongest matchup currently is TvP, followed by TvZ and then TvT. Generally in TvP I execute a variation on iEchoic's hellion drop into dual port play which transitions into a variety of things depending on what the P opened. In TvZ I typically open 2 fact hellion into thor, though I am having some trouble with ~5 roach pushes which may lead me to change my build. TvT I generally go for either a tank marine push, or a fast cloaked banshee. So in the future I guess I'll be posting about the problems I encounter and how I solve them, which hopefully will prove interesting to someone other than myself. Cheerio!
