Game 42: PvZ, TA, Loss

Link:Replay
Opponents' Rank: Plat 38
MMR Change: -8 (246)
Overall Record: 24-18
Recap:
Interesting. I think this was my first run-in with the Spanishwa build. I'll need to watch this replay.

My usualy 3-gate sentry expand push was met with a couple lings, several queens, and lots of spines. Had to pull back.

I tried expanding to a third to take advantage of the turtle, but I didn't get things running fast enough. Speedlings took it out, then I got hit with mutas at the back and banelings in the front, which was clever, but I was already losing.

Lessons

I probably got too scared by encountering a different build. My standard play is pretty strong and I should stick close to it.

If I do try to take a third, I need to move an army into position to defend it.

Also, more vision would have been good-- at least fighting for the tower.
