foxblade told you how to fight off zergling rush. we both told you to use your ramp for defense, but you are still building tight. build your barracks closer to the ramp, and use the ramp for defense from the very beginning. watch foxblade's replay again. put scvs in the way to block the ramp if you scout a zergling rush, which you did.

and on that note, you need to scout more. losing your first scv doesn't mean you stop looking around.

and on the muta replay, you have a huge gap where you just stop making units, and that is why you fell behind. you also don't move out your first group of marines and medics to attack him. even if you don't think you can get into his base, you have to move out. if he only has 1 sunken colony like he did, you moving out forces him to make more sunkens, or build units instead of drones, or else he risks getting killed.

on the replay that you won, if you moved out your first group of marines in the beginning, you would have won much much earlier. if you are worried about zerglings getting into your base, build a firebat and a medic, and block the ramp with them, and attack, and keep building more troops. with firebat and medic blocking the ramp, zerglings aren't coming up easily. it takes alot just to get into the base, and if there is alot, it'll still buy time to get back. don't be scurred~

react off of what you scout. if you see alot of zerglings, get some firebats before you move out. if you see many sunken colonies, tech to dropship and drop a group to harass his economy and avoid the defense.

there's more to it, but you just need to get comfortable with the matchup first.. you are still slow.. but better than you were before.
