Had some good games - some bad games....some so-so games.

 

Rank 7 right now...been as high as 6th - if I win my next match I'll be 5th which is what my goal for yesterday was. I've been watching my replays - learning from them. It's amazing how many times you "GG" and really aren't that far behind when you do it. I guess need to hang in a little longer. Really getting a feel or liking 3 gate robo. It's so great because if I get a good proxy pylon and I can put a lot of pressure on the guy. If I want I can harrass (or win) with some warp prism play (just won a game with warp prism play :) - it was awesome lol). I usually poxy my robo bays....I think I should just proxy 1 of them near his base - as doing both leaves me a little weak on defense. I think my base defense is probably my weakest part of my game (or one of the). When I play people I find it tough to get in their base but when I get attacked I usually barely hold or fail.

 

Lately Terran are my worst match up. They are just so strong on 1 base - walled off, massing units etc. I just tried some warp prism harrass in a game and it was very very good. I guess T thinks if they wall off they are safe - hopefully this warp prism play will even that up a bit :)

I didn't catch a ton of the Blizzcon games but what I did see was pretty darn good! Glad to see they had some technical difficulteis - now maybe Blizzard will make HoTS with LAN support instead of required battle.net / internet....who knows. I saw the games last night between MVP and Nestea - super good stuff! These 2 are considered by many to be the #1 and #2 players in the world and you can see why. Here is the final game - it went down to the last game possible.

Those announcers aren't cool like the ones that do street fighter streams.

I thought Nestea played like he was tired. There were so many little things that he could have done, even at the end there, such as actually finishing his drops into the main or making a bunch more Overseers before his big Broodlord push so that the Scouts would have gotten chewed up as they should have been ... I guess even the pros make mistakes, too.
