So I have been very busy lately, forgive me. I realized I was a terrible player so I needed to get back to the basics. So this is the start of a series on just that, the fundamentals, the things you absolutely have to do t0 be a better player. If you can get the basics down, you can excel to the highest ladders of play. These are things that even those in diamond league are good at.
The first and most basic thing you need to do is build workers. Sounds easy right? Ah, it is but many player in the lower ladder leagues such as yours truly, forget that this means constant production. You should at all times have a worker cued up. By doing this you have an ever expanding pool of resources to draw upon thus giving you an edge over your opponent. I cannot stress how important it is to practice this. Every build, every strategy is built on such a solid foundation. Fail at this and you fall behind and as we know, falling behind means you lose. There are things that can be done to help you remember this important basic. the first is to keep it in the forefront of your mind. "Build a Probe (SCV, Drone), build a Pylon (Supply depot, Overlord). by mumbling this to yourself over and over for a few games, it becomes a mantra and when that happens, win happens.
The next part of that message is build a pylon/supply depot/overseer. By doing this you ensure that when your supply gets close to max you already have one down, thus eliminating supply block issues. You should always be keeping an eye on this because supply block is a dangerous thing. Workers don't get made, units don't get made and suddenly your opponent is excelling pass you. Never neglect either and everything else will fall into place.
