I watched that match (and most of the others this at I was rather impressed :)

On a side note, I am mostly matching Silver guys now (or top 4 Bronze) and getting absolutely annihilated pretty much every game if it goes past about 20mins game time :(

I'm basically playing as if I am going to be cheesed every game (6 pooled, baneling bust, proxy rack or 4 gate) and I think that is where I'm falling down. In all fairness I haven't been cheesed for a while so may have to rethink :p

I can't be sure without a replay but it's quite likely that you're expanding too late too... unless if you're planning to do aggression, you should take an expansion as soon as you think you can hold an attack without losing a crippling amount... This applies to your second expansion as well as your first.

But yeah.... cheese should be stopped with scouting... Not over defensive play.gas from zerg or lack of gateway/barracks should ring huge alarm bells or a general lack of workers built.
 
Thanks for that joe, I was always told that as Terran you have to really be the aggressor in matches, and against Z or P it tends to go ok, however against T I think that is where my macro gets shown up after the 15-20min mark and I find myself not really knowing what to do, lol.

Not great considering as of last night I was ranked 5th in my division :p
 
I usually find with Terran I wall in in 1 rack and 2 Supply, Go orbital, then expand. If im playing zerg i expand in side the base then move it out.
Against Protoss i will build a couple bunkers near the expansion. I'm a low silver player myself and this works for me. Oh and scout, always scout.

1RaxFE every game if you want to improve. Scout while your rax is building or after the first depot if you're really scared of cheese.

Flash, Mvp, First, Maru, Byun, Byul and Seed are playing tonight in GSL Code A Ro48 =D
I hope they win their games.
 
The end of a legacy, the saddest day ever, worse than anything apatch could do.

LG-IM.Mvp falls to Code B for the first time ever leaving only MarineKingPrime to be the only player to have never fallen to Code B during WoL.

MKP, the greatest SC2 player ever :D.

Sucks that MVP went out, NesTea award curse tbh :p. I get the feeling he's gonna have surgery soon (dunno whether to be sad or happy about that :/).

Still need to watch last nights matches, ended up staying up but watched TV and played PoE instead :(.
 
How is Flash doing these days? I've been out of touch with the SC2 scene for a while now but I've watched a couple of vods recently and I love watching his play. It's so clean and methodical and his decision-making is near perfect.

How's he been doing against the other top players? Is he starting to dominate yet

He still hasn't broken into Code S but he's definitely low Code S material IMO. In his last MLG he did really well beating Grubby, Naniwa, TheSTC and Life during their first winners bracket series ending up placing 4th.

He's doing well in Proleague also.

I don't think he will, Korea has a very different approach to dealing with ailments and they're very spiritual about it. I think Mvp will quit progaming if he gets the proper surgery it requires.

My memory isn't the best but I don't think I ever fell to Code B either
