Hey there, is there any thread where I can post a replay and get feedback on how to improve / what to look for in my mistakes ? I don´t think I´m really able to see the major, major flaws in my play - perhaps it is because everything is so bad ! (I´m in diamond league at the moment)
Anyway if there isnt a specific topic there goes the link : PvT, 24 mn http://www.ggtracker.com/matches/6252264

I've seen byun used tankivac during the TB tournament, and it seems like instant unload for all the tanks. Maybe because he is faster than me.

Once you get mechanically good enough you can unload them pretty fast this way, and its the best method afaik.

What's the best way to deal with the second Terran push that comes with 5-6 Liberators? I have no problem holding their first push / attack on my 3rd but the follow up attack is too much to handle for me.

So far have tried Colossi/Storm/Disruptors in combination with Blink and Phoenixes but no matter how well I hold the first push there's just too much bio. And the Liberators make it really hard to even try to get a favorable engagement.

My games look like Zest vs Bomber... (but I'm not as handsome or skilled as Zest)

You can shift queue unloading.

Is this map pool just beyond ridiculous or am I even worse with Protoss than I thought?

I have a wopping 0% win rate on the interesting gold base map and the maps and ramps are all SO INCREDIBLY HUGE that moving out (or even expanding) isn't something I'd dare dream of...

Could anybody point me in the direction of some high masters/gm games where protosses actually expand beyond a third? On the gold base map, I'll be dead by then. Ruins of Seras is SO HUGE I can never put any pressure on whatsoever. Lerilak has hilarious natural ramps. And I can go on for a while if you want me to...

Basically. I suck. I need more units to defend or expand but I'm winging it and it isn't working.

They would weed out a lot of repeat questions probably. The Hots ones were started in beta.

Unlike before, if you own the game, you can log into any server you want. Just change the region on the left side of the login screen.

should you just stop making workers when a base is 16/16 and 6/6(gas)? is it not worth it like in broodwar to make more workers than you need?
how big of a loss is it if a base isnt fully saturated?

full saturation is 3 on each mineral patch and gas. So add a few more, even if the return isn't as much as from 1 to 2. You'll also want a bit of extra as you're never going to stay on one base. You'll want to have a few ready to transfer to your new expo when you get it up. Generally it depends a bit on the state of the game, but somewhere around 80 drones spread across all of your bases is a good number.

I have no clue on how to stop a lurker/hydra push on my 3rd. Disruptors aren't good against it. Does anyone have any advice for defending this?

Is there any way to practice vs a specific race? Like an unranked queue that puts you vs the race you choose or smt?

Nothing directly implemented yet, and haven't heard of one to come.

Current ways to find some practice partner:
-Using the thread 'find a practice partner' (might be updated).
-Asking your ladder opponent (ones playing the way you want to improve against, for instance).
-Joining some practice/training/coaching groups in game or elsewhere, and ask on the fly sometimes.

i wonder why droneslides arent done in some cases??

you play zerg and want to go for a 2/3 base all-in, like roach ravager push.
you slide 8 drones to natural as soon as it is finished.
you do also slide 50% of the drones from main and natural to the 3rd as it finishes.

now your small mineral patches on all 3 bases will mine out like 4-5 minutes later,
which means that you can keep the pressure up for the same amount.

i feel like 24 drones over 3 bases is the same as 24 drones on two bases is probably why

The problem isn't just income. It's also mining out. Opponents usually goes for the newest expansion first, so you'll want to mine it as much as possible in case you lose it, so you have more to mine back home
