Here is a replay of him ![[image loading]](http://www.gamereplays.org/community/uploads/repimgs/repimg-33-126804.jpg) He hasn't done placement match since patch 13 (been trying to get better before he attempts them) But I would say he is around silver-gold. In this game I told him what I was going to do and we played it out. I think he went 3 rax into starport with tech lab for banshees. Thanks again, this is going to be great for him. | ||

The League's Silver, rank 15ish. I watched the replay again this morning and I think i wasn't agressive enough and turtled up for too long. This is mainly because i did not care to take control of the XN tower and thus was playing very very blind. I think i could have moved out around the 15min mark. Thanks for the help, -Kerm | ||

Before watching your streams, I had a lot of trouble with Zerg opponents, I was very delighted. I was hoping if you would help me clean up my sloppiness if possible please, but if you would rather watch a replay that had more trouble, I understand.  http://www.livestream.com/trumpsc/video?clipId=pla_5560be1d-f2c6-4542-b436-1c0a49d3b87a actually taught me a little about a better build order here so thanks! Spent a bit more time on this one since it was of particular interest to me | ||

I'm a Gold league player (Silver before they changed it). This game is typical for me, although I got crushed more handidly than usual. I'm having trouble knowing when to expand and knowing how aggressive I should be. Usually if I don't end the game in my mid-game push or if I can't pull off a good harass, I usually fall apart and lose the game. Any beginner tips for macroing beyond your first base and mid-game push are appreciated. edit: I'm currently rank 12. My strategy was 1/1/1, pushing with marines, a couple of tanks and a raven, followed by banchee harass. | ||

Ok, I tried going 1/1/1 build. Earlier in a 2v2, I saw how awesoem the raven's Auto-turrets were, so I wanted to try that harass, which you saw. I did win the match, but I want you critique it because I feel that, though I played well, I could have done better. Also, it does help that my oppponent suuucked. I'm plat 17, 9/4. I feel that upper Plat is challenging, while mid to low plat is easier. Also, this is my first time using 1/1/1 in an actual match other then 2v2 and custom games, so I'm a bit inexperienced with the build. I know I made minor mistakes such as the occasional supply block and that retarded SCV on my CC in the beginning. Anyways, make me feel better about my playing, ^.^! | ||

Qualifications: Diamond League Rank ~1-3 in a tough league, former Platinum 2100. Current streamer / self-commentator on games. Calm professor attitude (though occasionally I get very excited while watching a replay). Give me 10 minutes to get 3 more points and I will qualify for this. edit: took longer than I expected because b.net disconnected me and gave me a loss, but done. + Show Spoiler + ![[image loading]](http://i540.photobucket.com/albums/gg356/Grobyc_/augustgradpsi.jpg) | ||

In terms of the orbital command, you were saying it's like 4 scvs. Could you explain what you mean? Because I've always wondered whether to use comsats or mules first against certain races. Thanks again for the comments on my replay. SCV gathers ~60 minerals/minute Mule gathers ~270 minerals/minute When I say an orbital command is like 4 SCVs, I mean that if you use the Mule constantly, it'll constantly be up every minute, which means it's like 4 SCVs. (and it has utility in that it can scan too) | ||

League: Diamond, 350 rating with a 60% win rate. Before the patch I was in Platinum, 1500 rating with a 60% win rate. Basically I'm having difficulty breaking into upper level Diamond where people have 800 ratings (2000+ before the patch) and 70% win rates. Strategy Overview: Defensive mech until three bases, at which point I get ghosts and then push out. The game didn't get that far, as my defenses were broken as I was getting my third up. I use Thor drop for harassment. My Comments:

Thanks! I watch your stream and really enjoy it. | ||

Were you a 2000+ Platinum before the patch? Most people I know who had that ranking are now 600-800 Diamond. From what I can tell, 300-400 Diamond translates roughly to 1400-1600 Platinum. | ||

Anyways, even though I'm not the best Terran player out there (Plat 11 atm), if you ever need another commentator, I'd be more than happy to help you out. Just toss me a PM and we can get this show on the road. | ||

Just toss me a PM and we can get this show on the road. pffft. This is nothing. (so far :p) Will def. let ya know if I think I'll need more commentators though. Anyways, I'll be covering a lot of replays Saturday afternoon live ~3 PM if anyone would like to watch live and/or comment/question during the analysis. | ||
