Game 7 (Protoss / The Shattered Temple)

Build order / plan

• 12 drone for scout (4 player map)
• 14 gas
• 13 drone for scout (2 player map)
• 14 pool
• 16 lord
• 100% pool -> queen
• 18 2xlings
• Speed
• 20 drone
• Exp
• 23 lord
•  Expo pops -> overlord
• 30ish evo + spine crawler + drones on gas + second gas
• 40ish roach + lair
• Lair done -> 3rd gas

Pre game goal

Get a lot of drones early on and try to defend with spines, queens and speedlings. Then switch into mass roach/hydra, attack/pressure and get a 3rd up. Focus on timing everything and not forgetting stuff, use the adjustments for the timing:

• Take drones from gas when pool is done
• Instant larvae inject when queen pops
• Make overlord when first vomit larvae
• When building drones/lings from first inject, do new inject
• Make overlord when second hatch pops
• 3rd gas when lair is done

Post game analysis

Opening went fine, until I wanted to expand....I was pyloned in (3 pylons + 2 cannons). I thought because he didn’t have any units, I will make only drones and upgrades and get a spine crawler to clear the front. Money got high because I couldn’t spend it. Saw he had his exp and figured he couldn’t have a lot of units so I double expanded after breaking out. Controlled the map and scouted his base. When he went for a 3rd, I took my 4th. After that I stopped drone production and massed roach/hydra. I scouted his push and crushed it, then overrun his 3rd and his base and won.

Benchmark (10 mins)

• Tech: Lair / roach / hydra / evo / 1 base (+2 on the way)

What bad thing happened?	What’s causing the bad thing?	What’s the adjustment?
Got pyloned/cannoned in	No scouting at my ramp/exp	Put second ovy at exp/ramp + be aware of scouting worker
