[Rythos]

Hi all, attached is a replay of a really frustrating game I played last night where a terran got a couple of cloaked banshees into my mineral lines in the early game and just wrecked me. I got observers out, tried to set up a couple of separate sets of stalkers so I had the main and natural defended and ended up dropping cannons, but I just couldn't get the banshees dead and ended up losing a heap of probes.

Now, I'm well aware that I played awfully this game. The harassment threw me off completely and I made some really basic mistakes like not sorting out my gas income for ages. I'm not too concerned about what happened for the rest of the game because I'm quite confident the start of the game was where I lost. I would really love to hear how better players react to this kind of opening so I can hope to respond better in future.

I have also been having trouble with hellion drops, hence the attempt to do some simcity around my mineral line. The pylon positioning I ended up with seemed to make it difficult to get effective cannon placement though. Could I do my building placement better, or is it all just unit composition/positioning/micro?
