Made it back to top 25 with this game!!

I was struggling to maintain my top 25, beside I play 2v2 with snowflake just now, so I did not grind my game. luckily i made it back to top 25 again.. hahahahah.. This will be my replay story for tonight.

I fought against terran. When we start to play we would usually say glhf ( good luck have fun) but i prefer hfhf     (have fun have fun) I don't wana wish my opponent good luck right.. hahahahha.. so this happen. I say hfhf, and he say i try to talk trash.. LoL, so i explained to him incase he do not understand or what.. yet he replied with...

It's gona be so fun now for you.. =p My mind set is simple.. 1 gate expand then make double forge ^^ because protoss need to be ahead in upgreds. chrono boost will help to get the +3,+3 faster which will make the army stronger of course.. at 12 food, my sneaky probe went to take a peek at the opponent base, and what I see is he take his gas. This mean there will be no gassless expand of course..
But on the way back, my probe see something important. barrack with techlab and another barrack!! Phew, i don't have to worried cuz he won't 1-1-1.
After i saw his 2nd barrack, I immediately chorono boost my gateway to get stalker ASAP to defend against his aggression.
I expand as usual, and send my stalker to the enemy base, hopefully i would get a free kill ^^.
I send my probe again to scout, i do not want to get caught of guard if his marauder have concussive shell ( which will make my stalker move slowly) aka all my stalker will die. Then i saw he got his 3rd barrack! SHIT!!!!!! he is all-inning me!!
Quickly i put down 2 more gateway to defend his attack. i chorono out another stalker. I need as many unit as i can.
I send my stalker to the Xelnaga tower. Then the All-in come. He march with his scv to my base. My stalker bravely stand to his ground, He know, with proper micro, he can kite the scv and live to tell the tale.
The engagement start, it was an intensive micro, but 1 unlucky stalker are stuck at the pillar. Without hesitate, Zealot jump forward and try to save the stalker, with his high health he can last longer then the stalker. In his mind, he know with his sacrifice, all the stalker can retreat and regroup.

The lost of the zealot was not in vain. It give me enough time to summon more stalker! With this reinforcement, there is hope to defeat this all-in!
Then i quickly chrono boost the warpgate, i summon zealot to tank the damage and kill the scv. without zealot, the scv can surround my stalker.
After zealot has arrived, there is no more time to lose. They quickly go into the battle field. It's their duty to protect Aiur, their home place.
As they march into the battle field, terran commander have a smart plan, which is to let the scv go up the ramp while let his marauder do all the damage. The army of Aiur did not take the bait, they move back so the marauder can't shot them while they kill the scv.
Terran commander went rage and ask his marauder to run to the ramp. I saw this and said to my self, this is an opportunity. I ordered all my army to engage the terran army directly! the zealot went infront to tank the damage while the stalker shoot from behind, at the same time, another zealot reinforcement has arrived! the battle look bright on our side.
As i saw my zealot run forward to the enemy, i know i had this battle in my hand. It was i tough 1, i would never imagine to hold this all-in.
As my zealot give his final blow, I know this was over. I held it off. It was a very tense moment and i won!
GG! with this game i made it back to top 25 ^^

Trying to mantain top 25

I got knock down of top 25, kinda hard to mantain.. alot of competition. Some how i ran to i random player. I hate random player because i have certain idea for a certain match up, if the opponent went random, i cannot prepare. So i need to wall off incase he a zerg, but i cannot FFE ( fast forge expand incase he is a terran). I have no choice but to wall of. Well guess what he is a Protoss, mirror match up. Plus he cheese me with proxy gate all in.. ZZZZZZzzzzzz. here is what proxy gate look like..


As you can see, he built the gateways near my base, and when i scout his base with no pylons, i knew it was proxy gate! So I react with forge, thats how you want to deal with proxy gate, forge + canon.
But too bad i wall my ramp off, little room to micro and my canon placement is bad.. what you want to do is no wall off and put your canon at the mineral line so it cover both of your probe and buildings. I lost, GG. Then i was match up against him again. but this time i took the risk not to wall off, and i scout he was Terran.. hahahha.. good news for me, I straight 1 gate expand ^^ Since i knew he cheese me before, n i scout that he put bunker with tons of marine and no marauder, there is 90% chance he will 1 1 1 all in me. So i put down a 2 more gates n a robo . Chrono boot out the observer ASAP. And i was right, he did 1 1 1. He use clock banshee to harass. but i got observer and few stalker to fend off the cloak banshee.
He also try to contain me with his cloak banshee which is a smart move. As i want to move out and attack, he come n try to harass me with cloak banshee. I set up a nice defense just for him ^^
+1 attack with collosus and gate way, i win ^^ GG! sweet revenge.. =p

It's Snowflake as Terran!

Time to release stress for awhile. hahaha. playing 2 v 2 with Snowflake. She a new Terran, we always play 2 v 2 together.. hahahaha.. tryin up the ladder.. I suppose this topic should be in The Story Of Replay.. But since its a team game, i want to put in on the separate topic. easier for me to manage my post.

well, here we go. Once upon a time, Volhart spawn as Zerg while Snowflake spawn as Terras (like always)


We are matched against a Protoss and a Zerg. So i start the game with 8 pool. A safe built against 6 pool cheese. i can have my zergling in time + good economy incase the opponent 6 pooling me. 

After that i start to scout. Send up my trustee drone to gather any useful information for me. He return with a very usefull information. the opponent pool timing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I saw he just put down the pool and the entrance was not wall off.
 no pool = no zerglings = no defense. what are you waiting for??? go forth my zerling! bring them chaos.. =D
 Artosis pylon ( a pylon which power all building).. hahahahaha, good meal for my zerglings.. eat until you full ^^
 =p U Mad Bro??????? we r not finish yet..
 After we completely destroy protoss building, the reinforcement from his ally came.. few zerglings? no problem.. hahahah..
 Then come the queen.. ZZZZZzzzzzz.. tips, DON'T BRINGS QUEEN OFF CREEP. because zerglings can retreat.. hahahahahhahahah..
 After Snow flake saw the success of my attack, she brings her marine to pound them, but little she know that the opponent have tons of zerglings. They completely annihilate her entire marine force.
 She pull back he marine asap back to the base. Luckily she had a back up plan back at home ^^
 A good wall off + some marine to guard our entrance. I have no army at that time because i was investing on my economy. well, she hold the counter attack, so it dosent matter if i have army or not. LoL.
 *Enemy zerling : Run you fools! they got gun and we just got claw!* She hold it off pretty well. So, its time for the final blow!
 We assemble the army and march towards the enemy.Zerglings in front to check so the tank can un-siege and move forward. We don't want to get caught off guard. We siege right in front of the enemy base. My roach lead the attack, and the tank do all the damage. We penetrate the defense with ease.
 After we are inside the enemy base, they left ^^
 GG!
