I like your use of sexual inuendo to really make us feel like we were in the battle, watching it unfold. Keep it up. |

I'd give the report an 8.
Well written, not too many graphix, but a great game with excellent strategies employed by you! If I were you, however, I'd have used some corsairs, observers and disruption web . . . oh well =]
Congrats on a cool game and a real good report =) |

| Hmm not bad.. but I liked the reports of your ladder conquests better. I mean everyone's got a rubber ducky thrashing story to tell right? |

| I've decided to follow AQD3's lead and report all my wins, err, games vs Ducky. They should be up soon, any suggestions? |

Hehe, good report. Was Ducky really going to play the "altered" map? If so.... lame and more gay than storm. Well nice to see you lay the smack down there. Did you ever use archons? They're nice to clear out a base. Yes, they're < hydra, but once the hydra are gone, they're hard as hell to remove from the island. Especially with a reaver or a couple of zeals.
Btw- I liked the ducky coments. "RubberDucky, you're the one..." ;-) |

Ice is nice :] i was thinking the same thing. 4 reavers 3 archons 2 templar. and a dead expansion in a pear tree. between reaver and archon splash clumped units dont have fun times with drops like that. and of course storm is gay.

no i was not, as soon as I found out it was the messed up map I was the first out of the game. I knew remembering the hotkeys to get out of the game <i>REALLY</i> fast would come in handy =] f10-e-s-q
I knew I was dead once I realized he didn't go sairs, just damn annoying =[ Oh well, thats what I get for being a stupid newbie =[ And I didn't say storm was imbalanced. I said it was gay. Fucking gay. And I'm not going to comment on the "gayer than tmac" either |

| My problem is my island strat isn't very diversive. I have to guess what the toss opponent is doing, because 2 cannons prevent an overlord from getting a view of his entire base (even if he doesn't build them, i can't risk an overlord that early on islands) any tips on a muta/hydra/exp build would help. Preferably one that will get me 12 muties by hive lvl and an exp |

psi might be gay, but it works. It's the way toss balances it's lack of mass with good micro. I personaally like toss cause I've been playing them selectively forever now and am finally getting good unit mixes. Toss unit mixes are more important then others just because their units are more expensive.
I thought you were retiring ducky?? ;) |
| #13 .Praetor (fjwilson.reshall.ucsd.edu)[13526] |

I always go mutalisks first on Dire. You only need 6 to harrass peon lines and to free yourself from reaver or templar drops. Then I get transport, then Hive. If you already went double lair, lings work better against templar and reavers than anything else. Lings are like hatcheries, it's almost cost-effective just to have them killed by reavers.
Sure corsairs screw this stat, but it's not that hard to switch to hydras, and scourge don't do bad against early corsair. Plus, corsairs don't quite raze mains like drops do. |

Normally I don't enjoy obvious beat down reports, but...

My tips for Ducky, your unit production was bad... only 4-5 OL drops? Oh yeah... you were contained... still, I am almost as happy as if my ISP didn't go to the T_Mac school of good connections lately.
GREAT REPORT! I give it a 10.0! |
| #15 TheRubberDucky (dfiatx100-044.dsl.gtei.net)[13533] |

| YRM is just saying that because he thinks I was talking smack in the chatroom before aqd3 arrived. I wasn't really talking smack, just saying that I thought I could beat you. I still do but im not willing to try it. |
| #16 AQD3[13534] |

I realize this might not have been the closest game, but I wanted to post it because I thought people would be interested for three reasons:
1)Me and Ducky had a big debate on protoss vrs zerg islands in the comments of my last report
2)Ducky is a regular poster to this site and people like to hear about games with people they recognize
3)My only ladder game last night was also on dire and it was heckuva lot more one sided than this. =[
I apologize to the people who thought it wasn't a close game and that I shouldn't have reported it, and I'd just like to reiterate that I didn't post this out of mean-spiritedness towards Ducky. I just liked it the best of the games I played last night and I thought people would be interested. |

If anyone thought you shouldn't report it because it seemed one-sided, tell them to report more. It's nice reading the reports here as long as they are well written (sp?) and are done in good taste. This was by no means a "I kicked his ars" or "Ducky sucks!!!" type of post, so it deserves to be here as much as any other. Besides, after the first post, you <b>HAD</b> to post the follow-up.
As far as the whole zerg strat, that's a tuffie. One thing to keep in mind, if they went corsairs, it's likely they won't have a shuttle, or that you can overwhelm with your mutas. If you see a problem... he's making too many sairs to beat with mutas, best bet is to spore up and go hydra drop. Hopefully, he won't be able to mass sairs and get storm before your drop. To be honest, I prefer the hydra drop. It makes it much easier/quicker to expand and kill expansions. IMHO, if you are not able to drop him before he can get storm, best to worry more about expanding and containing than about uprooting him. |

More!More! Adq3 is flooding us with reports, but I WANT MORE!
This is not quite YRM-level, but Heartcutter and TRD have to watch out - or perhaps they don't, cuz they don't especially care. |

Ducky is easily the most annoying person in a game. Example: Bunker Command II. Every time he gets hit he would say something like "gay" or "imbalance" or other useless crap like that. After a while you just want to punch him in the beak.
