Any tips as to what I could have done differently DErankManu12?

Short summary:

- Do not idle units
- Build the units you need right now! And stop building units which already failed over 2 times

I will write while watching so it should be somewhat chronological.

This might seem a little bit nitpicky but I wrote about everything which came instantly into my mind.

1. micro the kodachi to hit the mex and dont use fire at will when only having 1 unit
2. use building priorities, especially in the early game to get your eco going and not have a unit and some eco taking income at the same time
3. you could have instantly used jump with your commander to save at least 1 windgen and a mex vs the glaive that got in your base
4. builing energy with both your com and constructor instead of going for front mex. You can let that con build e and let your com push for mex to gain more income and could have probably stopped that glaive before he was in your base at the same time.
5. building more then 1 kodachi on a small map with restricted movement and enough players to cover all sides.
You could gain way more if you do decide to:
- rush a ogre to gain a hold on the sidelines/mid, but then you have to rush stinger asap too or you get dunked by skirms
- rush minotaur to push sidelines and just stay in about 2x jump range of your com to avoid raiders hitting to hard and have sth to repair
- rush Emissary and try to snipe everything which gets in range / do some kind of light porc push with com + arty on the side
6. building 2 cons while only having 12m/s income, com + fac + 2 con = 35m/s
-> a bit too much (especially if you dont use building priority, I know you used it on com but your con could have helped rebuild mex/e too)
7. starting an I build everything to be prepared for everything queue, which results into having stuff you dont need for your current positon. Especially when you saw porc on top hill with your kodachi, you should have gone emissary
(8. losing 2 kodas for nothing when an ogre walked to your base -> a com could have scared that thing away just saying)
9. use set target to hit riots and stop minotaur from retargeting on raiders
10. why more kodas, does that ogre really do anything right now?
11. keep your units together, especially assaults work way better if they are grouped
12. dont just use fight command on arty, especially if enemy does arty you too. Try to counter arty his arty or at least scare him away with your minotaurs.
13. starting to idle units at ~9min for 3 min
14. not moving with minotaurs to find snipers at 13:30 after they wasted their shots, instead used tremor to dmg own teammate
15. not supporting teammate to push/find snipers and then push when teammates units died
16. losing ogres which should not have been build at all
17. not moving minotaurs at all even when you saw snipers uncloak from tremor (min 15:24)
18. not daring to push top or at least try to arty it
19. asking for snipers instead of onehitting enemy emissary with your 2 idle emissarys
20. moar unit idle, moar i tremor where snipers could possibly be but i dont want to hit stuff which i can actually see
21. building iris and not using it with minotaur and ogre to either push top or start to hunt snipers as you are now cloaked aswell
22. running with your arty to the frontline is not a great idea
23. slowly getting grinded to death
24. at this point probably the fastest way to salvage this with some luck was cloaked snitches
25. getting grinded to death
26. getting facerolled by 30k+ army value

Thanks a lot for that DErankManu12 :)
Some of it was mostly due to attention/APM limitations/misclicks so I can't do much there and some I disagree with (e.g. trying to emissary the enemy emissary that's on raised terrain when there are snipers about or pushing out with Minotaurs and Ogres when there's a squad of Cyclops roaming around somewhere under cloak), but a ton of it is something I can use to improve my game in the future :)
