Hey again! So, TvZ vods are really rare these days, dunno wtf is up with that. I've been playing a couple of TvZs of course, but they've all been crappy one-sided low-quality games. So you know, as much as this will dissapoint the T players, I've decided to upload two PvT vods instead.

They're both from B- vs B- games on Python, and the shorter one is a little display on how you can gain advantage on terrans pretty easily. Since I won't explain anything in the vod (because there's no commentary in it) i'll sum it up right here.

The Short vod, is a little display of how you fool terran into false security. What I do, is that I fake going for a normal 1 gate range tech, but instead I'm actually opting for a mean dt drop.

The Longer one looks like a plain PvT in the beginning, where I anticipate his early moves easily. But then it turns ugly, as the korean terran I play has a few tricks up his sleeve. From that, it's going to be a macro-fest with a lot of battles for about 35 minutes. I hope you'll enjoy it ;o

Here ya go, as usual, they can either be streamed or downloaded:

I watched them, thanks a lot. I can probably learn something from them (like how slow I am APMwise etc. ). Commented would be even better!

Saw the pvt, you really kinda had the game in your pocket it seemed for the last 20 mins even with losing your main, you seemed to macro alot better than him so he never gave you any problems,
but nice post.
Question: Why don't you hotkey atleast 1 obs with your army, you seemed to get really much more damaged by mines everytime he went outside your observer spots thay you have too.

Thanks for the feedback!

Xan: Yeah you're right, he wasn't really strong at the macro-game at all. I mean he grabbed my main-base + the expo there and yet I was able to out-macro him. I'm pretty sure he was deffending too much though, he must've left like 12 tanks @ 12 o clock so that might've made his armies a lot more smaller.

I don't have any good answer to your question, i'll think about that in the future. I think it could help me out a lot more vs the mines ;o
