It took 194 games, which is way more than a busy college student should be playing, but I finally reached B. With only one week left in the season, this looks like a good place to stop. Next season, my goal is to get better at muta micro so I can play conventional zvz. Since my muta micro is really bad, I've been using hydras in zvz or playing Terran instead to avoid the matchup altogether. But in order to get better, I'm going to need to learn how to muta micro. I finally have to admit to myself that hydras aren't viable in zvz.
Matchup statistics
zvz: 6 wins, 10 losses, 37.5%
zvp: 38 wins, 39 losses, 49.4%
zvt: 36 wins, 28 losses, 56.3%
tvz: 22 wins, 12 losses, 64.7%
As expected, my zvz is my worst matchup. Surprisingly and sadly, my offrace has a better win percentage than my main race.
Goal for next season
- Get better at muta micro
- Get at least B+
Decent games at B- level
zvp @ Destination - just a standard game:

zvp @ Colosseum - the win that got me to B:

Notice how I don't make any muta in any of these replays. I wasn't kidding about that awful muta micro.

im impressed you got 6 wins in zvz using hydras

Grats. Muta micro is pretty fun so it shouldn't be hard to practice a lot.
|
Man, just dl that muta micro map and play it for 30 minutes. You can learn muta micro so easy it's not even funny  It's just patrol click on your furthest muta. I don't think anyone actually bothers doing the crazy Chinese triangle thing lol.
Nice work though. Always been a fan of you Blind

Ya your 2 goals are related, with better muta micro it will probably bring you to the next level Good luck.
|
Wow. Zerg without mutas is like .

|

good job, and go to B+ :D

I really like how you're main Z and have higher winning rate with T. grats gj not alting as P.
It's a shame to not have mutas with Z tho, go practice it like mad in a raw UMS map. Not that weird stuff that some people posted, something like this korean map
After 1000 rounds on it, muta micro in real games will feel super easy and it'll all come down to multitasking.

congrats on B. awsome achievement
Ironically your icon is a muta
|
Don't learn muta micro, plz
<3
|
Wow, congratulations! Keep it up, and go for B+!

That is kind of sad, to be honest, and I certainly hope SC2 will diversify the matchup (although that does not currently seem to be the case).
Anyway, congratulations on your success. My own progress in SC has ground to a halt due to numerous other obligations and activities.

Just go 2 hatch mutas at D next season. You'll drive T/P's insane but at least you'll get better at it.
Nice job getting to B.
|
wow gj man!
keep it up! and def practice them muta micro!
|
Damn dude switch to terran your offrace is so good

Thanks
Some more screenshots from weird zvz's:
A plague that got around 2 groups of mutas.
The same mutas trying to defend an expansion.
All the 1-3hp mutas die in 1 hit :D
