Progress videos

This page I will post a video each month of a piece of a game I played to show how my skills have developed each month.

March
In this video I show the first good portion of my match against an easy AI. I did not make the video the whole match because each match is quite long, even when played at twice the speed. There is nothing too special about this match, and this is one of my first match's of StarCraft 2.



April
This video is a much shorter video, mostly because I skipped the first part of this match, since it is essentially the same as the beginning of the first match, but I do things slightly faster, through the use of the hotkeys I have been learning. the match itself is also just shorter, and this is because I now can match pace with even a medium AI and come out with a more efficient use of resources. I used a much more early game strategy to destroy my opponent before it really go going.



May
In this video I use a few of the Macro strategies I have been learning to much more effectively use my resources and not get stuck on supply. In the first video I show the beginning of my match, and if you compare the two, the second is a lot faster, and smooth. I do not max my supply, and I do not spend my resources frivolously. Instead I am constantly building things, and more efficiently getting an army. I also build two Barracks, which meant I was able to recover when the AI killed most of my initial force. I will continue to increase my Macro skills, and hopefully be able to continue to increase my APM. As you can see I laid down my second Command Center right at ten minutes, which is right on the fringe of my goal of building my second expansion in the first ten minutes of the match. I could have actually played it earlier, because I was still hording a lot of resources. I actually ended up with the expansion being built later than in the previous video, but I was managing my army better, while also fighting a harder AI.
