Any tips?? I really don't know what to do when my opponent makes a wall, turtling is a style I hate and I always struggle to beat that kind of player.. If you were me, what would you do to put him in difficulty?

Yea, I'm not sure I'd consider what His_daddy did as turtling. It seemed like he built his wall mainly because you had the advantage in mobility so he had to protect the openings.

I think the main problem early was that you were spending more time harassing his heavy side while he was advancing towards your base without you really having any vision. By the time you created that runner, you were pretty out of position so he was easily able to get your base down to 2.

What really got you was around turn 35 I think when again he was able to get up the left side without you having much vision and force you to split your units to defend, making his final push up the middle a lot easier.

I think you just needed more vision on this map which would've helped you defend better. Also, the harassing on the right side while it may be more wit efficient for you I think hurts you more as you will always lose 1 unit to his 1 unit to finish off a buffed soldier. Since it's so close to his spawn, he can easily recover but you can't as it takes 2 turns to get another unit down to replace your unit lost.
