So, here's a new daily ladder post. I'm trying to find a good use for the nydus worm vs P, but I'm not quite there yet.
1.
ZvR(P) Tal'Darim Altar
This guy pylonwalled my nat even when I did not have a hatch there, I proxy hatch in his base which does close to nothing.
Alot of back and forth in this game so I don't really care to write all of it here.

2.
ZvP Entombed Valley
I go formy usual 12pool 14gas FE, he also does a FE build. I go roach/hydra and try to use the nydus worm but it kind of just sits there the entire game.
He has extremely sloppy unit control and loses several collosus and void rays to my army when he could easily just backed them out(ironic when his name is InAPMWeTrust).
He also had about 90 probes at the end of the game.

3.
ZvP The Shattered Temple
My usual opener, he does a really weird-ass build I don't get at all that does close to no damage. I kill his push without losing any drones except three for the spines(I think).
In this game the nydus worm comes into play a little bit at least, and I think it helped me quite alot. Thoughts on this (after you watch the replay thank you) would be awesome 
After the game he also tells me the he is actually a masters player and that roach/hydra is imba etc.

ZvT The Shattered Temple
15hatch, 16gas, 15pool is my opener of choice vs terran. And this guy's main isn't terran so I guess there isn't much to say abou this game except that my muta control is fucking horrible.
This was an extremely standard ZvT, except that he was really bad and because of that I won't bother writing about it.

Sorry for the lack of descriptions, but I'm very tired. Maybe I'll update after I get some sleep. And do let me know if I posted the same replay links on any of these.

Sounds like a decent result from a hard day of laddering! Keep up the good work. It's okay if the descriptions are somewhat brief. :D

Not so hard, but I just haven't played that much SC2 today ^^
I think I won all of them though :o

It's always easier when you win them all, I guess. If you stream I think some people might be more interested in watching VoDs than reviewing replays. I only looked over the last one since I'm terran.

Maybe, but I'm not sure if I have good enough internet to stream at a decent quality. And my gfx card apperently hates sc2, as I can play Skyrim and all that stuff on high settings, but sc2 I have to have low graphics and medium textures. And I use WinXP so there wouldn't be any sound either...

hmm... that almost sounds like it might be a processor problem. I think sc2 is somewhat more processor intensive than other games. what kind of processor you got?

AMD Athlon II X3 445
Pretty sure it's this one. It's sold as a triple core, but you can unlock another core which I had done, but for some reason it has turned it off again...
I'll look into that in a while, for now, I shall watch TLO stream!

I kinda miss the old nydus mechanic, as tunnels, but as worms they have the potential to be more aggressive and the entire thing as a network is pretty sweet.

I'm sorry but it's incredibly boring to read about your games without pictures that capture the moments you talk about. And it's too cumbersome to download each replay, boot it up into sc2, and then watch it.

I'm sorry, but you sound like you're even lazier than me.

That may be but I think many people here also don't have the time or the interest to download your replays and then watch them. Nobody here would disagree that pictures would make the blog worse, and frankly I don't know why you're being so cold to constructive criticism.

hersenen i offered some constructive criticism above in a friendly manner and achristes looked very receptive to that. However, he seems unreceptive to yours. I believe the reason is that your criticism was a bit terse-- you call his blog "incredibly boring" which probably was not taken well.
I think you should look into the possibility that perhaps you were somewhat rude, or interpreted as being rude, even if you didn't mean to.

Oh yea I see it now. My apologies.

No problem. When I think about it, that kind of stuff has happened to me like 10.000 times on this excact forum. (That was an overstatement)

Tone is hard to convey over the internet. I'm glad we're all cool dudes though :D
