Not a bad writeup since I missed this. Trash talking needed to be a lot better though, that part is disappointing. Ending though is too good lol

So basically John admits how terrible he is and how he makes tons and tons of mistakes and then ends it by saying things like:

The first thing I learned is that Teo wasn't nearly as good as I thought and I'm better than I thought.

I felt fairly even in skill

if I play my game and the builds I'm comfortable with, I can beat Teoita

First thing you should've learned is that you really need to polish your basics before you try something like this again.

You were NOT even in skill at all. Teoita took advantage of your mistakes, and while Teoita made some basic mistakes as well we didn't get to hear about those because you don't know how to find or take advantage of your opponent's blunders.

Maybe you can beat Teoita in the future but you'll have to polish up and really work on your basics. Also, your apm will increase as you practice more and more. Good luck if you ever dare to assault the great walls of TLStrategy ever again.


I seriously question your sanity if you thought this was a serious match.

The reason why Teo's mistakes weren't exploited nearly as much was because I was playing planned 1-base all-ins. However, I didn't get much of a chance to actually practice the all-ins, so a lot of them were almost completely improvised; I expected Teo to play the same way, but he instead just played a very macro-oriented style. Normally I play much more passively and macro-oriented.

Also, my APM is higher than Teo's in every single one of those games :p.
(Though, admittedly, there are a lot of wasted actions I'm working on eliminating.)
