Hi everyone.
After playing a couple of matches today i thought maybe it would be a good idea to open a replay thread for our fellow starcraft addicted forum members.
To make something happen in this forum just as well.
I will start uploading some replays here which i think are either funny to watch, outright cool or educational.
I will also give some commentary about them (in form of text, not recorded) to let you know what you are about to watch.
Of course everybody is allowed to hijack this thread and upload some replays of his own.
Tell me what you think about this idea and maybe leave some comments about the replays as well.
(As a sitenote, i am not very good at this game. Decent maybe, but not good. Dont expect GM-Level play.)
Here we go, the first educational replay "For the Swarm" is going to show you a random (protoss) Accname versus some zerg player who was (if i remember correctly) platinum league.
It is a very good example of how a zerg player should not play.
I opened up with forge fast expand on shattered temple. Then i teched to stargate for phoenix play when he suddenly started to throw his units mindlessly into their deaths.
What he should have done instead? Double expand, macro and scouting for my tech to deal with possible harass. He didnt macro, and didnt scout, but you will see a crapload of zerglings getting bashed by probes in this replay.
And some rather funny replay "Defend early Pressure" which demonstrates some sick grandmasters level micromanagement from my part (random protoss). Watch how i fend off an incredibly early and unsuspected timing push by this high level terran player without losing a single unit.
Thats crazy micro, i tell you.
