I have a couple of replays I'm really behind on, and haven't uploaded, I'll try to get some up to date replays up in the next week.
I have one ZvT I'd like to share tomorrow that ended up being a pretty epic match, ZvT is becoming one of my favourite match ups just because it really tests your mettle as a zerg player in a way different from any other match up.
I also have a ZvP I'd like you guys to look at which is actually not all that remarkable aside from a bit of a mind ******** near the end where I just can't figure out what the ******** happened, I may have to watch it a couple more times again myself, but I'm just really confused, perhaps some of you guys can find what happened.
I wish I would have saved one of my other ZvP's that I lost to a really sexy timing push that was incredibly well executed, I was really impressed.
I'm gunna be posting a lot of my losing games, because I've actually begun to prefer posting my losses, rather than me crushing 6 pool after 6 pool, or dealing with lame cheese builds. Nobody wants to see my retarded one sided games and it would serve nothing more than a boost for my ego. I'm trying to keep my posts somewhat educational.

1. How is my creep guys?I don't actually remember if this was that good of a game or not. All I remember is that it was loads of fun, and nearly the whole map was covered in creep. This was when I first started experimenting with Hydras, and decided to keep them on creep, and only move forward with the creep in order to keep my hydras strong. It might be amusing for a zerg player to watch, but I think a Toss player would only s**t themselves in anger. 2. ZvT GG Probably one of the most exciting games I have ever played (IMO) over 40 minutes long and I somehow maintained a 103 average apm. I tried to stay ahead through expanding, and macro based play. The Terran player attempts a few cute tricks with drops and reapers, but it eventually turns into larger scale macro battles in the middle. 3. Wait...what?I had such a huge advantage in this match, a good food advantage, the right units, and he just pushes out with zealots, my roaches get caught a little bit out of place, but even then, I have no idea how this went so far south.

3. the only real reason why you lost this match was simply because he outproduced you. he was constantly producing units and was able to do so off of only one base. he moved out with a Charge +1 timing push, but you still had two bases compared to his one.
if you had immediately responded after losing your first group of Roach near east XTower, I think you would've had enough units to counter it. you had a lot of minerals sitting around so you definitely could've just mass-produced units, but instead you try and micro and it took away your ability to inject larva and produce units at a faster rate.

I'm thinking of doing an ladder marathon, for like 5-6 hours, and uploading every game.....I dunno if I can do it for 5-6 hours straight though....Gunna go shower first and contemplate this possibility.

Bi Dent 3. the only real reason why you lost this match was simply because he outproduced you. he was constantly producing units and was able to do so off of only one base. he moved out with a Charge +1 timing push, but you still had two bases compared to his one.

Yeah, I feel like I might have had a better chance at dealing with it, had I thrown down my in base 3rd hatch earlier on, in order to get my units up. I see what you mean by microing instead of macroing, I was too focused on trying to pull my roaches back to my expo to fight on creep, which meant I was unable to put my larvae injection to good use and keep macroing for the push. I think I also screwed up with my 2nd gas on that match? Running out of gas meant I couldn't produce as many roaches as I wanted to as quickly as I needed them. Still though, I had not only a food advantage, but an army size advantage and lost everything in a blink of an eye, normally this is something that happens after a severely failed push or getting caught in a choke or something, but I didn't think my unit positioning was THAT bad to lose the whole damn game.

I'm gunna do it, though I may need a break half way through to go get energy drinks, I'm gunna give it a shot. Plugging in some heavy music, and gunna power game it today.

GAME NUMERO EINSThree language title ftw. I'm really beginning to feel like ZvZ is my strongest match up now. I misjudged what tech my opponent was going for (thought muta), but it turned out that it didn't matter, I really thought I was in a bad place when his first push came, but I made it out alive, I was hoping to test out some infestor play in this match, but it didn't happen, oh well.

Game Numero ZweiYeah, this was a bitter ugly match, I use to really like Xel Naga Caverns, but lately I've been finding it hard to orchestrate a solid strategy on it, and my TvZ has really been lacking lately, the MMM stim timing pushes are just so strong. He had really good unit control, and saw where I had my banelings, so I was unable to do the damage with them I needed, and because of it that first push ended up doing too much damage to recover from, delaying my tech and unable to build an army, coupled with that very Select-esque constant stream of units, I just couldn't do anything to get back into the match.

Game Numero DreiAnother typical ZvZ, this is how I deal with a rush to muta if I don't have hydras up yet. BASE RACE!

Just occurred to me, Shagrath from Dimmu Borgir sounds like Tassadar (or some sort of protoss) during his vocal FX parts in 'Gateway' on their new album, I laughed a bit.

Game Numero VierWhen will Protoss players learn the 2 gate robo isn't as strong as it once was? especially not on 1 base.

Game Numero FunfZvZ is typically my best match up, but I felt really weak in this one. I started off strong I felt, but then fell short when it was time to take a third expo. My unit control, hotkeys and reactions were terrible and it inevitable loses me the game.
