Hi all, I'd like to share a small replay pack of 27 of my recent ladder games. My playstyle is heavily macro oriented, and I love late game play utilizing all protoss tech with mass zealot warp ins everywhere. Most of what you'll see is the following:
PvZ - mass void fast 3rd transitioning into mix of skytoss/ground PvT - defensive early-mid game, 1 colo no range into HT PvP - 1 gate FE or phoenix expand into macro games that avoid mass voids
For your convenience I've individually marked each game below, but you can also download the entire pack here.

Thank you so much! I've been stealing your builds since 2010, I am glad I can continue doing so. I'd also like to thank all the effort you put in helping people out in the strategy forums (which you've been doing since forever).
Awesome - I used to watch your stream to improve myself as well as a few others and I got to rank ~40 GM on NA and i attribute a heap of that to you. Thanks. Great to see you've started playing HotS can't wait for you to stream.
hah, i beat you 1v2 a while ago. My ally dropped right away and you were double zerg vs double protoss o.O. Glad to see you doing well, i'm going to leech some of your 1v1 builds :D
i can't seem to get a replay to work not just these ones everyone i try. i download it open it up log into sc2 but then there i am on the menu screen with nothing happening?

Try saving on your multiplayer folder and opening the replays in game.

Watching the replay of your pvt with [QK] Kiom and I noticed you only put 2 workers in your initial assimilator. Is this just for the faster nexus? You get your mothership core pretty late in that game compared to a lot of popular pvt openings, and I love the greed but I'm wondering if it's still safe from early drop plays in your experience.

I didn't saw the game, but maybe is the 5 stalker presure build, a good old build from Huk (very popular at his time).
Very nice, been having a bunch of trouble in PvP macro games, these help a ton. Also, loving the counter attacks, seen you lose a few battles but while they were going on, 20 zealots in the main and nat.
Will have to give these a look. Been feeling a bit lost in most of the matchups lately (except PvP strangely...) so hopefully these give me some direction and the last piece of the puzzle for me getting into Masters.
Hey rsvp, I have a questions about your 1 gate FE in PvP. I noticed your gateways seem kind of late. I'm not entirely sure how, but when I tried your build I was able to make my gateways on time iirc. It didn't seem like I cut probes for too long or anything. Perhaps that's because I didn't send a scout probe when I tried this build on single player though. I may actually have enough minerals for a second gateway even before my nexus if I refuse to scout, since I need to send my stalker first.
Would not scouting be a problem if it made my build tighter? Is there an ideal build order to follow after you get your nexus 3 gates + robo up?
