Thanks I'll try to keep any unneeded noises out of my shout casts. I do understand that both of these games are pretty low level and they are nowhere near close to the hardest matches I have faced but they are also the only matches I felt had enough content to shout cast. In the future I plan to release even higher level play and more exciting matches. It's ok for me to want to collaborate with the pros because it's not like you have to be korean to talk to them. Again, I'm a brand new player but I expect to get much much better as time goes on. I'll be releasing some shout casts of me doing preliminary matches to get to diamond league soon enough.
CEVO preliminary final(winner advances to championship bracket)[Winner also wins at least a pack of energy drinks]
Exploit(tf2 complexity player) vs Chease(me)
Before the match I ask if he wants to do a bo3. After I beat him he demands to have a bo3 and starts raging, followed by reporting the game as a loss for me

I caught this on artosis's stream. You have some sick macro. I couldn't tell for sure but it didn't look like artosis had +1 melee for the bl which I think would have helped a lot? Also what else should zerg do, just macro better and do drops and defend his expos better or is there a different unit composition that would have given you more trouble?
Hey I'm not sure if anyone else has this problem, but I'm getting an error when I try to open a replay saying "The game makes reference to invalid or unavailable files" does anybody know how can I fix this?

I think all zergs need to abuse Nydus. He didnt need to get overlord drop if he got nydus, and he would have been able to easily defend his expos (although probably 1 at a time (hence double drops)) if he had invested in nydus canals/worms. Thats something to abuse on desert oasis too, sneak an OL somewhere near a Terran base or between their nat and their third, or if possible in their main, and you can cause so much damage.

Great thought, but here two things why nydus sucks vs massive (more than 6-8 overlords) drop: 1) Unloading time and capacity (considering nydus as queue and overlord drop as multi threading =)) 2) AOE placement (seen many times Zerg wasn't able to get a huge advantage cuz of being blocked at foe's base by buildings/harvesters/own forces etc. when using nydus) 3) Creep. Last but not least and may be important enough if we gonna drop hydra/roach and involve some crucial micro conflicts we'll get an advantage moving faster. Here's only my imo and i would be glad to discuss it more deeply!

I know what you meant, he didn't make any drones at start, just immediately saved for a pool with his 6 drones mining. So his 6th drone morphs into the pool, making it 5 drones remaining. That's all the confusion was
