You're wrong here, it's called siege expand because you get siege mode while expanding.

You simply need to tighten next game.
seriously next disrespectful comment in this blog is ip ban. Be happy or get the hell out. // SC2 is like playing with neutral-colored Play-Doh while BW is like colorful Legos.

Watch a ton of replays. See what works, then try to begin to understand it.

LOL I can kinda picture incontrol in a crappy checkered suit chasing down newbies with his card...just like those shady accident lawyers. Instead of patrolling the hospital, he hovers around the strat forum...lol

1. u had no build order

ur 1-gate cyber was standard, and u transitioned into 2 gate. then, u should go obs, which is standard vs terran.

2. u expanded too late.

he went siege expand, which means he is basically turtling in his base until he can get his expo running. use this time to gain 1-2 bases depending on how u see fit. but at least expand ONCE.

3. u kept ur army still

u basically camped ur army in ur base until he came with the tanks. but then again, u would have lost anyway because ur econ was bad (didnt have enough min, so could not make more gates and units)

4. u suicided ur initial force.

STOP TRYING TO ATTACK UP THE RAMP. its called siege expand because u cant touch the tanks without a clever bulldog, which u didnt have. keep the goons and stuff across the bridge outside of his main. this confines ur opp while u expand and tech up safely.

probly more experienced players will add more critiques, but this is my two cents.


good luck


great 1st post, i concur

me calm down? well im sorry if my 'writing tone' was bad towards alls of yeese, but like really i just wanted some advice on that single game. I felt that i really actually shouldn't have lost that game. That is why i made this post to more over verify that this is why i lost. I also thought that what mrhickoryham55 did was really a good format. They should have a rep review page where ppl can post reps and people break down what didn't go so swell.

Thanx alot anyway everyone. i really appreciated this. I have been trying to find out what im doing SO wrong wiht these pushes. They cause the most trouble.

Necosarius you are doing the typical teenager thing and asking for advice but at the same time trying to refute the things that people tell you. Stop, accept that you messed up and that you are not good, and the advice in the thread will help you if you just accept it and stop making excuses. In other words, grow up, and your game will get better.


Please don't confuse me with the OP

No. Most ppl can't spell lose right. Including native english speakers.

Advice on a single, poorly played out game isn't going to help as much as critically rewatching your replay and comparing what you did to more viable strategies (such as you can find on Liquipedia). Seems like mrhickoryham pointed out stuff you would see if you didn't just mass game + expect the strategy forum to take care of the rest.

Omg the 'loose' in title bothers me so much.
