Bronze/Silver league

I started out going with the 3Rax build order and when he brought in banelings I added some factories to pump out siege tanks. Where i had the most trouble was when he brought mutas into play and it took me a while (because of the econ damage) to amass marines and thors. I think my main problem (besides macro/micro as most bronze/silver players) was my slow reaction time to the muta harrass.

Any help you or anyone could give would be much appreciated

High Gold/Low Plat (working myself into diamond)

Even though the game isn't in any special circumstances, I would love it if you reviewd my play anyway. I was under pressure and really didn't know what he was doing (I should have scouted more but he built his starports near his natural.

Because I wasn't sure what he was going for (encouraged by the stream for whacky builds) I went a standard tank/viking into expand. I hadn't practice this build a lot but I thought I would give it a go. I got supply blocked a few times and my unit controll was super sloppy. However, he BC rushed and with some macro I was able to pull it off in the end.

I'm also looking for lessons and was wondering what your rates are. I think with lessons I could become a lot better. I just can't multi task as well as I'd like to when I get past 10 mins into a game. Thanks!
Excellence is doing ordinary things extraordinarily well.

Map: Stepps of War

Me(GottesWille): T Platinum #26 Division: Europe, Berstling Eta
Mariklus: Z Diamond #8 Division: Europe, Char XI

Me: 1/1/1 with a little bit too much Vikings
He: Mass Hydralisks/Roaches

Mistakes: My opening seemed very good but I didn't use the Vikings well. I guess I shouldn't build them at all (maybe one or two would have been good for overlord hunting). I should have used them for scouting. Another thing that I've did wrong is that I guess I've expanded too late. My enemy was going for roaches and I did scouted it so I should have build much more marauders. The next point I guess is that I should have gotten some detecting unit so not a reactor on starport but techlab.

It's a custom game replay from me against my friend who I guess is a lot better. Anyways I've learned alot from that replay.
I'd like to watch you reviewing it and pointing at my major mistakes.

I also want to say that I really enjoy your stream and since I found out that you are streaming I watch every day at least two hours!
Thank you very much for streaming

This is a TvP 600 plat game that i lose. I try 8 rax, 8 gas for fast reapers,and orbital Command . Then i transition to MM and expand. He Cannons ups, so i try to contain him. I added in tanks, Vikings and Medivacs to my MM army. My micro in the large battle was kinda poor and i was 20 food less than him so my macro was weak. I also had 20 supply of units at my base when the big battle started. I think Ghost would have have helped. I got worried that he was going to void ray rush or warp in units at my base while my army was away.

TY Trump and anyone else who watches this TvP. PM me with advice pls. I have not beat a toss that get HT with storm in long time i am struggling with it alot even when i get ghost early.

Rank 28 Platinum

He was random so I scouted early, saw zerg and decided for a 3 rax. After I scan I saw only zerglings and roaches so I thought it would be a good time to push out. Disastrous attempt. I eventually managed to switch to viking siege tank and pushed for the win...barely.

Just looking for some help on how I can do better, I got into plat with Zerg then made a switch to terran. I have been watching you for awhile, and I do know I did a lousy job with controlling scvs.

Gold level game

I wanted to go 3 rax push, but his drone kind of confused me in the begining, so my macro kind of sliped a bit
Then when I saw him going mutas I think I didn't make something to counter it fast enough and he did a lot of economic damage with his harrass
But I think the main reson I lost was when I lost my army trying to atack his expantion

Platinum level rank 1...trying to break into diamond my name is RobotFood

TvT game..opponent is mid-diamond. Both went 1-1-1 in a mirror match, and I end up winning but I feel like my late game is sloppy. I'm not bad early on, but after my first expansion my play always gets sloppy as I never know quite when/where to expand, and I tend to feel very unsafe the more expansions I have. I also reacted very late to his bit of harass on my expo, and I would have lost if he had an equal force to me. Also, penetrating his turtle was tough, and with equal armies his tanks would have blown me up.
Basically, what can I do to improve my late game macro? And when should i choose to expand past my first expansion? Can I do anything to feel safer without turtling? Thank you very much for any help!

Mid diamond.

TvZ trying 5rax reaper into marauder and was able to kick the fast expo. He pushed with lings roaches and later Broodlords.

I think my mistake was that I scanned the early spire and prepared for mutas , but after the scan he cancled it. Also i lost a pretty big Battle in the middle of the fight.

I wanted to go Maraudar/Ghost.
He went for Stalker/Zealot/Collos.

Of course he was stronger than me but i dont really know why i had such a little army. I think my build order wasnt that good and i should went out when my first ghost was there... pls tell me what were the biggest mistakes, have much porblems in this matchup.

Sorry for my bad english^^

I just want to say thanks for your stream and tutorials. Its helped me sharpen my game. I started out in copper in beta and am now in diamond. Don't really have any replay to post, as I pretty much always know where I went wrong. I think a real good game, I just don't always play one, haha.

If anyone says you can't be a solid diamond player in your 40s as a new rts player (age and apm!), I prove 'em wrong.

Hey Trump,

Can you please review this for me?

This is a plat vs plat, TvP.

The problem I am having is that I am not sure if my transition from your 3rax build to tanks is that effective. To do this, I got another gas, but I am not sure if this is necessary. Also I want to know what else I could do to improve my play to become a diamond player.

Thanks!
Here comes the speed banes!

At the time of this replay I'm a 563 level diamond player. My mechanics are quite awful (I play mostly onehanded, which I need to get rid of eventually but I lapse into when I'm anxious) but I've been able to do okay due to having decent build orders and macro. This is a TvT where I do a siege tank fast expand against a 1/1/1 build. I make a ton of mistakes but I manage to win; thanks for reviewing. Huge fan of your stream.
do you have enough resolve, hero of justice?

T strat: 3rax
P strat: 3gate robo

Mid Diamond

Hey Trump, I'd like your help with this game I played against a friend of mine, we're both mid diamond players. I went for a 3rax build and he went for 3gate robo. As soon as I saw the robo I went for a Straport (in fear of colossus). He then pushed out with an army consisting of Zealots, Stalkers, Sentries and Immortals. When he got to my ramp I had the high ground advantage but he had his observer there so he was able to forcefield my army and beat me. I know I should have killed that observer, but is there anything else I could have done better? His army was much larger than mine and it would have taken a while for me to get ghosts out.
Any help would be appreciated and thanks for your time.

Hi Trump,

this is Keonru, diamond level Terran player.
I posted a replay once before and thanks to you I moved up from platin to diamond since then.

This next replay is a TvP on steppes of war. It was during the ZotacCup, the first Tournament I played in. I was able to beat my first two Opponents but lost to the third.

This is the Replay of the last Game.

[image loading]

I was going Tanks Marines Marauder versus his Stalker Sentry Immortal. I think I could have beaten him, but my army positioning was bad.

Any Advice would be appreciated, thanks,

League: Platinum
Rank: 50

Basically what I did was trying to do some early hellion pressure, so I did a 10 supply 12 rax (actually 11 by accident), 13 refinery, 15 oc, 15 rine, 16 depot, 16 factory, 17 refinery; something like this

Opponent went for banelings and I think my hellions sort of melted them easily and I did some damage. He then switched to burrow roaches, so I got turrets up and also a raven to clear tumors + roaches and went for hellion/tank/thor/marauder build. He later transitted to Ultras while making some expos, which I harassed / denied (I guess).

I think my biggest fault was that in the last push I didn't siege my tanks, because I thought Tanks do more damage to ultras unsieged.. (the splash wouldve been more useful though), also I got an expansion fairly late, and didn't pump enough SCVs.

Also, if you'll be examining this replay, please could you explain, if theres a reason to why he didn't go mutalisks? I mean I didn't have any decent antiair..

Thanks in advance!

League: Platinum
Rank: 42

TvT using 1-1-1 build. I'm having no problem steamrolling people with 3 raxx and have a very high win/loss ratio with it (recently went on a 23 game win streak), but I wish to make the transition into 1-1-1 especially vs Terran. I have a lot of trouble using this build. I feel I out-macro my opponents, but my combat strategy seems to need work, I rarely win a game using 1-1-1. Expanding past my natural scares me a bit since I feel I have to thin out my army to defend them from possible banshees/medivac drops. Perhaps I just don't have the metagame knowledge to do this more effectively yet.

I noticed some blunders this game such as blocking my own tanks in for a bit after production, but until my opponent expanded to 4 bases, I feel I had better micro and shouldve been able to end it sooner.

Thank you so much in advance, it's thanks to your stream that I even have any sort of foothold in this game.

Hi Trump

I've been doing a reaper opening lately with great success, but it seems every time I'm matched up against decent or better players, it doesn't work. I'd hope for you to comment on it and try to improve it. I've attached two examples of the opening/play.

It's pretty easy to and it goes like this:

First 75 minerals on gas.
Next 150 on barracks.
Then 2 SCVs - 1 mineral, 1 gas.
Tech lab. Supply depot.
Reaper. Speed. Reaper. Reaper.

From then it's kind of a situational feeling, but I hope you wanna do this.

1) Very successful short replay: http://www.myupload.dk/showfile/595445f09cf.SC2Replay/
2) Decent, but has to make a transition: http://www.myupload.dk/showfile/5954464b72a.SC2Replay/

Hi, I'm a Diamond level Terran player. The following replay is a ZvT of two diamond players.
The map is lost temple, and I did see that the Zerg tried to do a quick expansion so I went 1-1-1, got a quick tank, and a quick medivac and did a drop on the cliff. My opponent had a roach-centric army, so there was not much he could do. However, eventually he killed of my marines with overlord sight and hydras. Meanwhile, noticing the roach-centric build my opponent was doing I started getting a bunch of marauders and Thors because of mutas. I still had some tanks. I took control of the xel'naga, and placed my tanks there. They were all near each other, which I now recognize as a mistake. A few mutas came in and were easily sniped by thor/viking, but then a large amount of overlords came in and dropped roaches and hydras right on top of my tanks.The battle left me quite crippled, but the Zerg didn't have enough forces to push in.I quickly massed marauders, got stimpack, (should have gotten infantry upgrades) and got Thors since I saw mutas. I scouted a hidden expo with my viking and sniped it with a quick marauder/stim force. Then I pushed with mainly Thor/marauder/viking for the win. I messed many times with my micro, etc, especially with lone vikings. I also got supply blocked a couple of times and my macro needs a lot of work. (I had the gold expo as well by the end). There's a lot of obvious fails I see in my game here, such as a failed thor drop, fail scv transfer because of supply depots not being lowered, forgetting to put 3 scvs on gas @ expo etc. but I'd love it if you could point out the less obvious fails. Thanks a lot man.

TvP

We're both Top 10 Diamond Players in our division.

These are both fairly common builds, I go 1/1/1.
I end up losing this game at about 28 minutes.
I think where I mostly messed up was not controlling my units against storm, but then again this is why I'm posting this replay to see where my major mistakes are.
