@Raithed, I AM SORRY RAITHED! It was mildly longer though. Besides, I do one everyday, yeah? What do you want longer?

@d1v, thanks for the tips, especially the a-moving. I'l look out for that.

@Trooper, I will start to provide the replay of the recap game. That makes sense at least. I will provide other replays but I don't want to embaress Zergs worldwide

@kissblade, thanks. LOL at the help with girls, those blogs are all over this site haha

@Zer0das, ZvZ confuses me too. Take solace with me in the fact that Slayer said you get better with experience.

@NotSupporting, Haji, Rotodyne & zOula, thanks alot. Check back tommorrow :D

A general tip (which came to my mind after reading d1v's post):
Some strategies are more or less effective according to the skill level of the players. For example, opening with lurkers instead of mutas in ZvT. If you're still at around iccup D level you should try this more often, I'm sure it'll be less risky than doing heavy muta micro. Bad Terrans are generally bad at microing their marines against lurks, and a nice lurk/ling flank can quickly decide the game in your favor because he'll lose far too many marines within seconds.
Unfortunately, when you face better players (iccup C and above, I'd presume) you probably have to change that (you should then rely more on the common, "proven" strategies used in most pro games. Work on your mechanics to be able to pull these off decently).
But against bad players, you can try several things and you might even have better results with an uncommon strategy/build. Find out what they're weak against and hit them with that. Hard.
That ling ambush you did is also an example of something a pro would laugh at but which can be devastating against bad players.

Totally agree. That is why I try to play normal even if it means I will lose, for experience.

As an update, I have the perfect, PERFECT game to recap tomorrow. Hilarious game. So make sure you come check that out.
