Hey guys, been some time since I last posted a decent post so here goes nothing. Basically to recap what happed with me since my last post years ago. I ended up taking advice from a player that I consider knows his stuff. I got placed in the gold league after my placement games. And I know what you thinking “ Did you pay someone Val ? “
My answer
“Maybe” :-D
But to be honest, No I won three out of five games and gold is my reward. Now since I started laddering as the craft slang goes. My progress so far has been a bitter bitter ………….no wait bitter experience. Out of the 10 games I ran I won 3. Hence my epic face palm and a bit of a QQ post. Now the question is why the fail.
I have found the following issues to be paramount to me not being as good as I want to be. Now this is from self-study and my new friend looking in.
• I forget to warp in coastally
• My probe production does not keeping going until mid to late game
• I have no idea when to attack or do anything relating to pressure
• I forget to scout after the first probe and even if I do. I don’t know what to do with the info
Now my last game was against a Terran player. Here is the replay. http://drop.sc/110624. Now to be fair, I should not have won this game. The terran player quit for some reason and I am not sure why. He had me pressured with Marine’s and I barely kept him away. Now as you should see I did not even press him or have a chance to expand.
Now for my plea, if there are any Protoss players out there that I can ask for help. I will really be appreciative. I am a quick learner and I am willing to put work in to improve. Now please feel free to comment with advice and even practice partners are all welcome.
