EPTStill, for a bronze-level match, this is a pretty good one. And, you get to see who’s crowned the king of n00b masterdom! See below for the video (in two parts) with commentary:

Macro - Spending and gaining money Micro - Control of army/units Good luck getting better but I would suggest that you look into some build orders or something, and I can see the noob level problem of hesitation in applying pressure and attacking it is quite entertaining  . Commentary was fairly interesting though and I enjoyed it. If you want to play any games or practice you can add Abstract.157 | ||

I'm probably still a little off once I get past the first 5 or 6 buildings (especially as Protoss), but yeah, you won't see many gate, core, robo, gate, double stargates from me anymore lol. The noob hesitation was pretty classic, you're right. Glad you liked the commentary! I've been hoping my commentary actually adds something to these replays. Sure, I'll add you to my list and we'll play whenever I see you on. I'm KingOctavius/248, so you can add me too. | ||

Double startgate does work on one base, but only if you mash out phoenix, though. Which, on retrospect, with a decent zealot army would've ripped your opponent opponent apart, had you done it properly. Although I would say your stargate placement was a bit off on such a map like Scrap Station. I understand you want to hide it from your opponent, but the best location for any kind of air production buildings on Scrap Station is as close to the middle as possible, because that creates the shortest flight distance to your opponent's base. When done right, you can do great timing pushes. This of course matters a bit more with VR rushes though, which can be quite devastating as well, especially if you face a zerg opponent that goes early roaches. | ||

Man, this is great, my humor actually comes across ... humorously! I wouldn't have thought. Thanks for the advice, too, Lea. | ||
