I watched this game shortly after the tourney (I was in it too). I think you did very good in it. Your BO was spot on and you did well to constantly raid.
As far as the game, I think he actually had the advantage early game. His harassment seemed more effective than yours in the initial stages. I know you said after the game (in the chat channel) that you felt you were in complete control, but I don't know if you really were.
A few improves that I saw were that you should recognize his weapons. His ACU had the light gun upgrade (I think 90% sure) and you kept marching small clusters of units into him to get eaten. Now I'm not saying that you should have run away, far from it. He was actually being incredibly offensive with his ACU. Around the 15:00-16:00min mark he was all by his lonesome shooting your forward base. You continued to launch large raiding parties at his right (your left). If you had sent even 1 of those groups to support the units shooting his commander, you could have killed him. If you sent the units from the 3 or 4 raids combined, he would have surely died.
Also in the improve column goes raiding the rear. You never scouted his rear nor did you send even 1 mantis back there. You could have easily destroyed those mexes in the back and along the sides of the ridges to really hurt his economy. __________________________________________
As for your good stuff. You did a good job of constantly raiding his mexes. He never really got to hold onto the other players stating positions.
Your TAC Missile Launcher was brilliant. It killed his T2 fac and set him far behind in the tech race. I believe that move move alone won it for you.
You did well to exploit his lack of air. You saw he didn't have any, so you punished him.
In conclusion, it was a good game, and a fun watch. I'm sure there is more, but this is lengthy as is. Wubbed.

Thanks . I was kind of joking about the "complete control" part - I was winning, but he did do a good job of early raiding. I never really got into the back, since once he got those T2 bots out I was having trouble getting back there . Funkoff/on keeps going on about TML's, so I decided to go for it.
If anybody ever still visits this page, I just want to gratulate Gnats ;p. I don't really recall playing this match as I played a lot. I do know that I had hard time switching from SC to FA. To bad the GPG net server is down, now this is the only replay of me playing. So thanks for uploading!
