TVZ Antiga

Other than macro which I still need to improve on, what else do I need to do? Should I rush out siege tanks or focus on double medivac around 8 min mark?

TvZ Entomed

For this one, what can I do? Drop earlier or scans to see the ultra caverns? Input please?

Happy New Year in advance!!

Let me start of with saying welcome to SC2SEA donma! I hope you enjoy your time here. Feel free to ask me help for anything really.

You should work on your micro a bit. If you see a unit with low health pull it behind your army. Every unit counts as it still does the same dmg even with low health. Also when scanning you should scan behind mineral patches etc, thats normally where Zergs hide their tech. Even though I'm not Terran the stuff I told you are normally what higher league Terrans do ^_^ If you need any help feel free to talk at the Chatbox. I'll be there often.

Good luck

If you aren't really confident in your micro, I'd suggest going mech. Mech is better ways as you're less prone to fungal/banes/ling surrounds.
But you should always prioritize your macro first in BSG.
In the first replay, you started floating a lot of minerals past the 10 minute mark, when you start doing that, it's a good time to drop a third and get more production going. Also pure bio isn't that great vs zerg.
You also started rallying workers to ur natural too early. you had like 10 scvs on minerals in ur main and 20 in your natural. Optimally you should be aim for 2 per mineral patch which is 16 workers, which is exactly 2 rows ~
You also have poor map vision in the mid game. If you wall-in, you should be safe from most counterattacks. Also try harassing/attacking your opponent more.
Just watch out for supply block, use a better unit composition and you should be good.

hi domam

seems like boith zerg likes to get infestation pit and burrow around 9 mins in both games

if u attack before 9 mins with .. marine maurader / marines with +1 and stim / 2 medi etc it would affext zerg late game

because you didn attack before 10 mins, both zergs got to build 12 drones at a time and heaps of upgrades

Macro
- Tighten up your macro. Here's some specific advice so you have a place to start

• When you wall off with depot-rax-depot, the SCV who builds the second depot can go straight down and build a command center. In that time, you'll have made 2 marines.
• Make your 16th SCV when going gasless with second depot before expand. Your rax will finish and your SCV will be building - let it finish before OC.
• You don't need to bring another SCV to make your depot - just throw it down after the rax finishes. That way, you get more mining time!

- Take a 3rd base - 10:00-12:00 is a good approximation if there hasn't been a major conflict, and if you notice it's after 15:00 and you have no 3rd, alarm bells should ring.
- Generally, your SCV production is getting there, but still needs a lot of work. Aim to have around 50 SCVs at 10:00 (I think 48 is reasonable with that particular expand) - you had 39. That's 9 SCVs missed altogether, or 153 game seconds, or more than 2 and a half minutes out of the first 10 without building an SCV. Pretty substantial, eh? I do the math for you because it's easy to think "I'm doing pretty good" and not realise how huge a problem it is. I fell into that trap myself.

Scouting
- While good bunker placement, you are playing scared. You saw he went hatch first, so you didn't need to bunker so early (you did it good on entombed). Also, consider walling off with buildings at the front to give you protection (again, somethine you did good on entombed).

Other
- Nice effort at multipronged drop harrass. Doing that while pushing the middle would be even better.
- You have a good number of rax
- Keep checking for idle SCVs (F1 by default)


Entombed

Entombed was generally an improvement in some areas. Still only 40 SCVs at 10:00 this time, but that's fine - it's something to work on!

- Don't clump your army up so much. There were engagements you lost that you could have won because too many units were caught by a fungal/not firing at the back. It's a good habit to get into that when you are setting up a position, say at the watch tower, to spread out. That's also an easy way to always have the better concave.
- Your first push was very damaging. I would have kept on piling on that pressure. Maybe followed it up with a drop at the natural while hitting the 3rd by ground again.


In General

- I recommend you make more decisive attacks. It's one thing to do some nice little drop harrass around the sides, but you need to to tie in with some big time aggression.
- Use control groups for things like drops.
- Also, if you look at your bank and see a huge excess of minerals, throw down a ton of rax, and then spam that A key. Generally you're staying ahead of your opponents on unit count (until getting supply blocked) but you're never maxing out.
- Make sure you are using hotkeys for everything. That little section at the lower right hand corner of the screen with all the icons to build things? Your mouse should never go there (maybe to turn on auto repair if you don't remap it, but you should remap it)

Otherwise, keep practicing. Amount of time spent is the single greatest indicator of speed of improvement.
