Let's see how I do.
Wanted to try something new today. I'm going to post my thoughts on the game twice, first before I watch the replay and second after. I'm interested to see how my analysis changes between what I "felt" and what actually happened.
Before the Replay:
Rolled. A little hyped up about it but trying not to be too upset. PvT so it's not like it's a huge surprised, and I had all kinds of mechanical failures. Missed a few starting probes on minerals, miss-queued a few things, forgot upgrades all kinds of fantastic stuff. Even forgot probes pretty often. And of course got supply blocked like crazy because I can't remember to build pylons in a timely manner.
Meanwhile built MMM and just rolled me with it.
I actually managed to repel the first wave, but the second wave totally crushed me. He had so many Medivacs there was just nothing I could do with my crappy gateway units. But I was so strapped for cash I couldn't afford a tech switch.
After the Replay:
Yeah, his units just demolished mine in that second attack. I shouldn't have even stuck it out, it was GG already. I suppose I was hoping he'd just futz up somehow. I guess maybe I should have tech switched, because maybe that would have given me some small advantage, but I was so strapped for cash after losing so many probes.
I should have sent my expansion base probes running when I saw my initial defense failing. Maybe that would have given me more cash to recover quickly and put up a good second fight. So that's a lesson learned.
And I *have* *have* *have* to get better at building Pylons. I don't know why they're so much harder than Supply Depots and Overlords. Maybe I'm just not used to the inflated unit cost of Protoss? No idea but I need to get better at it.
