I win more games with a worse BO, and fewer units than I do by any other means. Just play your own game carefully, and I can almost guarantee you that they'll make the mistake you need to win. Pm me sometime if you need the replays for evidence.

0_o What an unusual post I should wait for my enemy to make a mistake, because I make plenty of mistakes? I'm not quite sure how that could help, but moving swiftly on, any other ideas? Or has much alcohol been imbiled tonight

Hi Flynn. Arkansas tells me that you are me. As such I advise spending more time waiting for them to make a mistake, since you're always going to make plenty. Thats just a little advise I would give from myself to myself.

Okay, I could tell I was gonna lose this game if not for a little luck at the end. One innovative thing that I did was that I expanded with my com on one side and an engineer on the other which guranteed me at least 1 expansion point. Although I could feel the game slipping away from me after I had secured the point with my com. He went T2 whilst I literally did not have the economy to keep up with him. I don't normally get to play against people this level and it showed during the game, I felt overwhelmed with attacks coming from all sides

Edit: Right, having watched the replay, things I noticed:

1. He secures the middle mass which allows him to go T2. If I would contest the middle mass I would NOT have been able to secure the 4 mexes on the side. By going to the side I was GUARANTEED 4 mexes but if I contested the middle I would likely have ended up with no mexes or reclaim.

2. I overspam power a bit which is an easy mistake when you forget to pause your power spam engy team.

3. The "com expansion" slowed me down a bit, but at the same time I would NOT have secured the side without it since the enemy was streaming units there.
