Day 8 – I heart single-base pushes
Game A
v Terran (OneToTheHead)
Win
What went wrong?
- 3rd base late
- 4th base late
- Hoarded my overloads instead of scouting
- Still stuck to the only 3 units I know
- Neglected my 2nd wave of bane on final bane-muta-bane combo
What went right?
- Quick reaction when scouting proxy barracks
- Relatively constant scouting (best use of 6 lings ever)
- (Luck) Enemy was REALLY determined on dropping
- (Luck) Bane hit when most of army was in medivacs
- Timing of bane-muta combo
- Decent muta micro
Game B
v Zerg (Revo)
Loss
What went wrong?
- Out-macro-ed
- Didn’t expand quickly enough
- Didn’t counter roaches well
- Threw away mutas on hopeless head-to-heads
What went right?
- Didn’t give up even after first big loss
Today’s thoughts
- Watched a few Day[9] Newbie Tuesdays. Lots of stuff to learn! I’m starting to see trends in my play so, hopefully soon, I’ll start having some tangible items to work on. (Although I will admit that just trying to improve “in general” is refreshing.)
- Also, I treated myself today and spent a few hours going through the perusing the campaign on normal and achievement sniping. Good times.
