So, since my last competition was pretty much a discussion, I'll now close that and move over to this general colony discussion (the others are all specific)

TALK ABOUT ANYTHING RELATED TO COLONY (and beef burgers)

My micro is getting better and better at the minute. It's getting better at the same rate of my bacteria in my lungs leaving. Can you help me again Vincent? I want micro vs micro this time.

I am. I have some bacteria left in my lungs, but that's nothing now. As soon as I'm 100% better I want to be 100% better at my micro too.

Youll manage it =) Are you working on scouts or hovs? Micro-scouts are horribly good against normal players.n

I have no problem scout with scout micro. I was working on with hover tank micro. I'm almost perfect with it.

Well, that's technically micro. The timing and execution is the more difficult part ^_^

Micro is more than holding and falling back. It's also charging and holding. The fall back and hold is easy. The charge and hold is more harder.

No, not this, i meant

this, zeke. 2, 4, 2, 4 is NO microing. Microing is making all your units attack the same target and synchro their attacks.

For example, charge with a bq and then advance, to attack meds instead of the front hovers. There you also decide WHAT the target is, and WHEN you attack. Oh, and the timing is not that difficult. Finding the position, WHERE to hold, this is the most difficult part.

I don't need to use macro all the time. You know why? I'm better a macro than micro. That's why I need to practice micro. Today I did a real 1vs1 with SpeakerForTheDead. He did this random rush. Fortunately, I managed to counter it and tech up. I later used many decoys to micro my hover tanks. I then used meditecs to heal them. It was a success. I won the game. It was a game game, in the end. I thank SpeakerForTheDead for the game. I couldn't have gained experience without him.

Micro is not the only skill in this game. You guys are forgetting about Macro, which is being able to use the platforms while microing unit.


Hell, dont forget about Mocro, say: Playing colony LIKE A NOOB, that means:

> Your not allowed to put rally point on
> Your not allowed to control your units
> Your not allowed to produce ressources,

hell yes, you know how fun that is? And DIFFICULT!? D:

Now hey, now whats macro exactly? XD
