Hi, im Diamond currently 176 rating rank 26, My game is a TvT on Lost Temple, replay shows it as a 2v2 or something but its just bugged, i am RadioMars in it and my opponent is JMARTIN.

I was attempting to do a 10 rax reaper into marauder and tank early push to either win right out or to contain and that was about as far as i was thinking as i don't have much experience with TvT and am still trying to figure things out beyond this opening. In this game i was generally trying to contain him to 2 bases while taking the gold inbetween our bases and then hopefully overpower him with stuff once he attempted to break out or does break out.

I think i could have been more aggressive with my opening particularly i could have picked at him with my starting reaper and definitely could have attacked better with my push, which i think was my main mistake as i think i could have won by pulling some of his forces back from the ramp with my reapers attacking his workers and then pushing up the ramp with siege. And then after i contained i think i mainly lost cause my macro slipped hard as i didn't really know what to do.

What id like to know is if my assumptions are correct and if my build looks viable, what could i potentially do/work on as the game progresses beyond my contain in this type of situation.

Thanks alot.

Hey Trump! I really appreciate you making this thread. I'm pretty new to Starcraft 2, only got my beta key 2 weeks ago (and its already ending =\) but i feel like I am learning pretty quickly. Currently I'm Rank 1 Gold and I feel like my game needs some improvement. This replay is a win, but I feel like it is sloppy and could use a LOT of work.

I decided to go 9rax reapers and scout him early and hopefully get him in a paranoid/defensive mind state, then transition into the typical rines tanks and vikings and push and contain. He opened with banshees and continued to produce them and mass rines. I felt like I could have finished him off faster than I did so any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Diamond



Says its a 2v2, but its not

My reaction here was to add more raxxes vs a 4gate + twilight protoss (i usually go the techlab + reactor rax with ghosts and transition into siege / air later). I won the early battles with ghost marine but im not sure what i did wrong in the transition

Fucked up badly with emps vs templars around midgame, i did hit e but i think i had something else selected, was weird

1on1 LostTemple, TvT. Bronze, please comment if posible why i lost. I was very close to win, but he killed first my base.. I know that i have to learn much about this game, but the enemy was at same skill level i think, on which point the game goes on his site and he overpowered me? Drops in here

Looking for some insight on the problems unknown to me. The obvious problems being macro and scv building

TvP, Diamond rank 74, Desert Oasis, after stalkers blinking into my base and doing so much damage I gave up because I wouldn't be able to come back from such a set back.

Thank you btw!

TvT
I'm Odriew, Unranked, opponent is a platinum friend.

I probably should have gone after my opponent after I repelled the first attack, and I forgot to tech up units, then I got roflestomped by battlecruisers because I didn't pump out vikings fast enough. Oh, also totally lost control of resources towards the end..
tl;dr - I'm new at this RTS thing.

I just got rocked by a Z in an very long very macro oriented very epic (by gold standards i guess) game. Its pretty long, and in your OP you said you might not cover it if its too long, but its worth a shot =D

i wanted to go mech so i did the standard open of 1/1/1, but when i scouted i saw he had roaches, which is where i got thrown off. I ended up turtling and trying to build up an adequate mech force, but every time I moved out he tracked me down and attacked, which was well played on his part. I also had trouble expanding as he kept tunneling in my base. Eventually it boiled down him destroying my main, me defending the rest of his forces at my nat, killing his forces and then doing a desperation charge. Any tips on what I did wrong would be too awesome.
