Even though you probably have been scraping off the rust, your old style might give you a bit of an advantage at times since everybody nowadays is all mechanics and used to responding to the exact same styles of play (if you weren't a thinking player then I guess that wouldn't ring true since you would have even more trouble adapting to the new style; It's very interesting that you find the new style much easier to play against though, at least in some respects).

ah, I just fel compelled to yell out how I lost the past 8 games due to cheese on iccup.

So when i finally got tired of it, I said heck 4 pool his ass.

I didn't know 4 pool don't work against 8/9 gate because he scouts diagonally so even with my drone scout, I end up going to the wrong place.

We need to start a compendium of like what cheese beats what.
What does the scouter say about his macro level? It's Over 9000 minerals!

I don't understand that replay; how did he win without making a single HT, DT or archon while making fifteen cannons before the 9min mark?

He scouted and countered your zergling runby strategy and got a huge early game macro advantage.

I dont know if this means anything, but the protoss had 6 less probes than you had drones, yet he mined 50% more minerals than you...

but maybe its because most of your drones are sacrificed when morphing into a building? \-(o.O)-/ *shrugs*. I just find it odd though, how 2 bases with just 60 probes can support 11 gates + upgrades. Usually with 2 bases I can only produce 8 gates, but then again I am a terrible player >.<.

I don't understand... his expo is a little delayed in the first place cuz he built 3 cannons, then he built shit loads of unnecessary cannons, then he doesn't use Templar... this is all off 1 expo... how is he running twisted over so easily. I felt like i was in the twilight zone watching that... is he using some kind of new subtle hack where every probe bring back 9 minerals instead of 8???

You can macro off that many gates with 50 probes. He doesn't even start using his gates until they're all built... There's like 4 idle ones while he's building up his tech lol.

You're also trying to build more probes, and Nexuses (which need addition cannon protection) and teching up to arbs or something ridiculous. He's able to get the upgrades because he's not building high templar. He's also not building units while he's getting his gateways up, so he's not spending money on additional gateways as well. You also probably don't have as many probes as you think you do, because this guy lost none, while I wouldn't be surprised if you drop a lot in a typical ZvP.

Look at the game details. Looks like they loaded from a save game and played for 10-15 seconds every time?
