Good thread. I don't watch my own replays that often, because most of the time I know why I lost, but perhaps I'm not getting everything absolutely everything.

Often I know what I did wrong (and sometimes it varies) do you think I should just focus on that aspect to improve it or just play more?

This is a thread in which the OP tells you how you should be analyzing your replays, not a thread for throwing out your replays and telling people to analyze it for you.

I love how you insulted him despite the fact that he corrected you politely.

Thanks for this write up. I think this will really help me find out where I go wrong next time.

I didn't really understand this part:

Protoss vs Zerg - Since Zerg have non-linear growth, an even worker count is roughly number of Probes +- 3 = Number of Drones.
Zerg vs Terran - An even worker count is roughly number of SCVs + 4 per mule = Number of Drones +- 3


It's the +- 3 thing that confuses me :S

Can anyone explain little more in detail what is meant with that? English is not my native language nor am i very good at maths so...

Really great thread over all though, certainly gave me another perspective of viewing replays.

If a mod could edit it in, that'd be great.

Wow, superb article there, Plexa. I've found many faults in my gameplay just from reading this (unable to watch replays at work :/). Thanks.

Thank you very much for this. I read your guide on playing at an advantage vs. disadvantage and enjoyed it very much. This second guide seems excellent as well

What it means is that if you are within 3 workers above or below Zerg, you have an even economy. Zerg workers spawn at uneven rates, because they'll make none for a few minutes then make 14. (As an example.) So that margin of 3 above or below is a good gauge for the evenness of economies.

Never mind about the sticky bit, I see it's in one of them.

Great great post! I've been struggling with this problem alot. I'm a pretty low player (Plat) and in this stage key timing and improving is really necessarily. Mainly when I watch my own replays I can't really judge hard since I don't know where to look at mainly.

But not from now on since you helped me :D Thanks alot ^^ <3

Oh okay, so it was that simple. Now I understand. Thank you for the clarification
