The first blog of mine was so much fun that I decided to do another.

Progress is good. Today I went 2:3 Wins:Losses which isn't the best, and I fought a few people I should have won versus. I'll be posting my most exciting matches rather than the simply boring ones. For example I played a ZvP where we both macroed for the whole game and had a meet up in the middle and that was it...

I played two ZvZs today which is funny because one was vs. a 4 pool, and another I could have sworn the guy was playing terran. Anyway, I'm just excited I managed to win a game where I 12 hatched and went gas before pool in a ZvZ. (He scouted it too.)

I'll jump right into my ZvZ.

I kinda feel bad posting another game with me vs. a noob, but I figure I'll make myself look good before I start showing you all of my games where I get crushed.

[image loading]

I almost missed the spawning pool due to its brilliant placement

So, I make a pass and make sure that he isn't expoing... Which was dumb because: I MISSED THE 4 POOL! I didn't notice that there were only 3 drones mining until my second pass.

[image loading]

This is Savior's favorite build order

Then I know they are coming and what do I do? Keep making drones! What is wrong with me?

[image loading]

It's kinda the opposite of what I normally do

It's good though because my ninja drones are back and ready for action... This time they brought the Ninjutsu.

[image loading]

Drones>Sunken

It's all good though because this was his follow up to a 4 pool.

[image loading]

4 Pool isn't All-in

The guy stays in for a long time considering... Oh well, no gg when he leaves, but I kinda feel sorry for that guy.

ZvP

This game sucked... I HAD the game. I mean I HAD this game for sure, then all of a sudden like 20 billion goons appear from nowhere and roll me over. That's what I get for delaying Ultras... >.< (Also, I feel like this guy might have been map hacking and also really bad.)

Either way this guy is evil.

[image loading]

Satan clawed his way into the Protoss build orders

Maybe this guy isn't just influenced by Lucifer, but rather he is the Devil himself.

[image loading]

You are so pro

This guy thinks he's so smooth with the cannons, but the cannon's don't like him back.

[image loading]

You kids get off my lawn!

I didn't see any Stargates when I did a quick scouting job, and at the time there was only 1 cannon at his main. Sounds like a good time to 3 hatch muta.

[image loading]

It's like ZvT only with cannons

Now this is when I think that he's map hacking... I make the spire and when it was at 300 health he has 1 cannon at each Nexus, and another at his choke. Then when the spire is done he has this many at his main and nat and continues to make like 4 more.

[image loading]

I like turrets more...

Then he moves his army to his next expo and takes it right before the mutas come out.

[image loading]

Please don't expo yet!

Well, there's only one thing to do...

[image loading]

Well, maybe this was dumb...

I guess it actually wasn't dumb.

[image loading]

The title of this pic is "No Obs," but it shows up as noobs on photo bucket

Now the game slows down a bit and all of a sudden this guy gets a crap load of goons and just rolls over my main even though I lead him in ups but 1 on each. I was late on ultras though... I think that was the problem.

[image loading]

Protoss is so not an Attack-Move race

General
I wish I could show you my ZvT, but I'm tired and done with this blog tonight. I'll do some ZvT next time. Again, I'd be happy to play with whoever. I'm finally getting back up to my old speed.

I've played a few games where they go 4 or 5 pool and then only drones, going back into standard play. But this is PvZ and it usually sets them back more than me, so they just get overrun midgame.
No I'm never serious.
