I plan to play games as frequently as possible and stream them, upload them to youtube and be an overall active gamer. Over the coming weeks and months i hope to show improvement in the games i'm playing as well as providing some entertainment to anyone who's interested.

Day 1 Streaming

For day 1 I thought i'd launch Into a quick stream, to get myself started. I'd finished my post work game of Mass Effect 3MP, and I had a couple of hours before my wonderful fiancee gets home. Firing up starcraft I clicked "Find Match".



Game 1 - Metalopolis

The game loads, my opponent WNxMercy a 'Random' player, slightly favoured, not a second passes Into the game and i'm met with:-





I guess he really did want mercy after all...



Game 2 - Metalopolis - Replay

My next opponent is a Zerg player named spankycool. GLHF'S are exchanged, this game has already lasted longer than my first match. I build my first pylon late and get supply blocked, still my timing lands my first gate at 12 supply, standard. My zerg opponent goes for a 14 pool Which i scout. The First Gas for my opponent goes up just before his pool finishes, My Gas goes up at 14, My cyber lands for me at 17, dropping it at the wall off. I supply cap myself again. Cursing myself i build another pylon, get warp gate tech going and start chronoing out the First zealOt. I expect to be well behind at this point. I send my scout probe to lay a hidden pylon at his 3rd as I complete my second 2 gates and start the robo. I'm yet to get a natural up, my opponent, unscouted, surely has. His first attack hits and is repelled by a single zealot and stalker. I knee jerk produce a few more zealots out. Still yet to use my warp in pylon. I do build a warp prism and maintain my defensive posture. I also pick up a couple of forges at around 8 minutes to Start my upgrades.



I warp prism drop him, a stalker, 2 zealots and a sentry. I kill off 7 workers and a queen, i lose the initial drop but my warp in of bonus zealots i pick up and fly away. I take my Natural just as i pick up. My pair of immortals and stalkers holding at the bottom of my ramp. I already know a spire is built. I drop a second time, noting his first few Muta's are out, i Kill some more drones and take down a extractor. I build a few cannons at my mineral Line just to be sure. I send my army bar the few immortals to defend against his roaches, i have 1/1 at this Point My stalkers and cannons make short work of his Muta's. He sloppily didn't clean up all my zealots in his main with his army and i do significant damage with a lone zealot. at the 17 minute mark he pokes with some roaches, my army is overwhelming, and i chase it off, picking off his roaches with my stalkers. My warp prism, still alive through all this moves down to support my army as the power zone for me to warp in more troops. He leaves without a word.





He didn't even say goodbye T_T



Improvements

+ Remember to build pylons - i got supply blocked a few times early, and in a higher league that would spell the End.

+ Keep building probes - While i had an OK saturation (note: not good), i should have had more probes to transfer when the time came.

+ Build the expansion earlier - I should have been getting the expansion and securing it while my zealots did their job in his base. I was probably distracted by pretty colours.

+ Scout more

+ Transition to colossus and templar earlier. Was a factor of income, slow expand meant slow tech switch.



It wasn't a pretty game, however it did net me a win for Which i'm Happy about.
