fuckers dared classify me as diamond! I show them!!

It was probably a right choice, I have not played for about 2 months (playing LoL, lol...) and I was out of style of the meta game, forgot how to do everything, and doing stupid shit. Lost 20 games in a row and dropped to diamond.

And I was fucking mad.

Well, I played hard for 1 month, at the prime hours of the day (early morning) and focused on the following:
1) larvae inject
2) spending all larvae first, then tech
3) drone drone drone

the last thing I focused on was
4) don't get supply blocked

Along with that I kept a keen eye for the new meta game, and try to get comfortable with swarm style zerg (roach/ling/bane few infestor). Keeping everything mobile, engage dynamically, backdoor always to split army, then bring army back to crush his isolated push.

Result, today:

HhahAHahHAHAHAH!!

p.s. last game replay. It's pretty good ZvT style, attack with some roaches if you scout reactor helion. makes terran verrry uncomfortable.

not a good idea to attack with roaches vs reactor hellion imo. terran will just raise his wall and get a marauder

that's a good point but I think of it from a controlling perspective.
1) Roach stops helion harass cold
2) Roach gives you map control back from helions
3) He cannot mine from his natural until he gets marauders (1 is not enough) or a tank or a banshee
4) I can kill his marines which makes him afraid
5) I can set up my 3rd behind the pressure, along with massive amount of drones since he cannot harass me with helions at all.

rofl nice blog
Social Justice is a fools errand. May all the adherents at its church be thwarted. Of all the religions I have come across, it is by far the most detestable.

I've been masters once.
Now I'm just diamond random,

edit: BY THE WAY,
Pretty sick portrait evan.

A build is not a guess, an estimation or a hunch, a feeling, or a foolish intuition. A build is a dependable, unwavering, unarguably accurate, portrayer of your ambition.
