Ok yesterday I got crushed. It was the 6th day of my 'top200 run' and I started the day with a 31-13 record and now I'm 33-19. I was on a 4-game losing streak, with 3 of them being to the same person.

The guy is a terran and he was just way better than me. It sucks to have that feeling that if I played him 10 times I'd probably have lost all 10 matches. After that I admit I tilted a bit and lost a couple matches for being stupid, including a zvz, in which I probably have a 90% winning rate.

Hopefully today will be a better day. I'm still getting used to the 14-hatch fast expo build, still have to figure out timing etc. I lsot twice to timing pushes which I don't think I should have lost, because the terran's armies weren't that sizable. If I just had enough lings with speed I think i'd take them out easily. Hellions have been bugging me a lot, and one of things that keep me cautious is the fear that the opponent will show up anytime with a banshee while I don't have enough anti-air units. Overall I think I played really bad yesterday, but I think i'll do better tonight.

Thanks for reading.

The entire Zerg community is probably sympathizing with the feeling of losing to timing pushes that you should not have lost. If the early 2Rax+SCV push is coming, it just feels like the 4-5 minutes of tension of build-up to a game you only needed experience to win, since the timing window is so narrow to defend effectively. Five minutes of nervous tension, then what seems like a simple A-move crushes dreams.

Keep it up! I'd really like to be able to keep track of your progress via sc2ranks.com! If you're uncomfortable with doling out that character code on the blog, perhaps some censored screenshots of the sc2ranks page could add some visuals to your journey!

"...if while you're playing Halo, you do some genius move and then you realize that the microwave is about to go off in two seconds so you have that perfect timing, then at the same time you, like, figure out how to do the..." ~Tyler "NonY" Wasieleski
