NewbieMcNasty could definately pose a threat to Mark4, he's a 1350 ladderer, always as terran. But gg nonetheless ... and, hrmmm ... i heard this game lasted like 1:20, but the br seems like it wasn't even an hour long game. I dunno ... how long'd it last?
I say it deserves a 7.5-8, btw =] |
| #15 <img "/images2/n_fls.gif">[16910] |

NewbieMcNasty is 1350 terrans?
nify then how the heck could I beat him twice TvT on temple? =[
Ahscar will own me so I'm definitely not even close to 1400. =[ |
| #16 <img "/images2/n_fls.gif">[16911] |
|
urr stupid tab button!
All I'll have to say is,
NewBieMcNasty is pretty good with unit control, peon production, and such, but his recon is just not very good. He understands a lot of concepts and implement them well. But when recon kicks in..... especially in 1v1... and Mark4 is definitely one of the players who are very good at recon. |
| #17 Sp|nE (dialup10-10-pri.voicenet.com)[16912] |

Eh maybe a stretch of the truth a bit, but i know he's 1300 =p

Doom, great report! Such a shame that it didn't get a 9+, but that's probably because of the pictures being a little out-of-place. Text wrapping, as I read above, would've been a real asset. What happened with the unit captions? You didn't use any? (sniff) I'm starting to forget YRM's style, don't mind me =P.
As for the players, Mark4 was godly as always, and NewbieMcNasty played a helluva game. Too bad Mark4 went so heavy on sairs, and of course we all know he's in love with Psi Storm =).
Good job though, I was looking forward to reading this ever since I heard about this battle.

Persian,
You should tell him that I got the "skill hack" from Mark4's advice: click the banners! =] But then in the first game my recon got lucky sometimes. Like... a wandering vulture glimsping 4 dropships and 4 valks with no detection in the middle of the map.... owns. |

COME ON!! I almost beat Mark4 Z v P (of course him P) and HE BARELY WON! come on! LoL and i only ladder high 1100 - low 1200. And he clames he had a bad game? I just owned his dragoons and templars. He got me though with the archons, couldnt broodling them =*( see ya
I bet i can beat mark on Dire My terran > almost all toss |

This game was pretty close. That first 4 tank drop killed a few buildings, including my extractor, and fifteen plus probes. I lost another 15 or so probes with all the attacks on the bottom right expansion too. It's funny how NM gets such an overwhelming advanatage in the early game against me then gets his ass handed to him once we hit mid game. It's like a pattern.
The thing is that most of the toss NM plays have no idea how to fight terran. Most Ladder players think there are only two races. But I was raised up fighting Johnny_Vegas, Heartcutter, and other nohunters players who have high level terran play.
NM thinks we'll face each other in the bwforum tourney, but I'm not so sure I'll make it that far. Persian or Tmac, whichever one wins, has a good chance vrs me.
Silent had some very good terran on Dire. He just naked expanded faster than I could even think about interdicting, and had air control to the point the early game was very frustrating. Guess that's why he's in the top twenty for the kali 1v1 ladder. =] |
#32  (relay.atinc.com)[16977] |

I think AQD3 did better vs Newbie McNasty than Mark4 did... Mark4 is just some random flamer afterall. *wait*
Oh yeah, they're the same person... DOH!
I'm glad someone is good enough to "put the Newbie in Newbie McNasty", he sounds like a pretty good player. |
| #33 (relay.atinc.com)[16978] |

Oh yeah, and remember, there are many ways to climb the ladder... I am 6-1 with an 1156 ranking or so... How you ask? Play people of similar ranking in a 4 way ffa and win 6 out of seven of them.
Tips for FFA ladder... NEVER play 3 people on a 4 people map, if you end up in between them, you lost. Period.
Anyway, my point is that ladder rankings are deceptive, even when they are legitimately earned.

Good BR. In both Mark4 vs. NM games, NM executed what I thought were high-success-rate early-game strats that you'd only know after playing the map to a good level of familiarity with that race. An early offensive tank push against Toss on Dire is often a game-winner if he sets it up right. It's in many ways worse than on a land map because the units a Toss player is likely to be focusing on during island (corsairs, reaver, dragoons, occasional DT) just are poor counters for entrenched tanks+turret+bunker in early island.
Mark4, I can't believe your corsairs got killed by a valk...what is this world coming to...? I assume you started on armor upgrades immediately after that ;-). |

| Other than the fact that I'm apparently made boring :-P by this report, good job. BTW, I was playing LittleThreaT. We played a ZvT game (me zerg) on Rivalry. Still haven't finished it yet, actually. Damn him and his stupid SV irradiate raids. He killed like 8 units with one SV until I finally threw some scourge up its ass. Right now I think I've got him contained to the upper and lower right starting points for bases, but I need to formulate a plan for storming his damn turtle defense. I'm sure he's got plenty in the bank too. I hope I see him on later tonight so we can friggin' finish it. :-) |

| #39 TheRubberDucky (dfiatx100-044.dsl.gtei.net)[16997] |

just surround his basses with scourge and send about 6+ in every nw and then to get any wraith/valk he tries to make.
Queens for bling tanks, ensnaring marines, defiles to plauge bunkes. Very easy to counter terran turtle with zerg=] |

Thanks for the support and praise, everyone, and for the high ratings, raters. I seriouly though i would get something like a 7 or so on this, seeing as how it is my second BR, and i didn't really put any effort into my first one. Just think, if i had text wrapped my pictures...!

Ok, let me say a few things:
first of all, I'm not 1350 Terran unfortunately, just 1288, under the name demogorgoni (you can check at ladder search forum if you want).
Now, my main problems were the same as the first game, I can't complete the job. Here were my main problems:
1) dt detection: I didn't get SVs early enough AGAIN. My first 4 tank drop was stopped by just dts.
2) needed more factories: I only had 2 going at my main, and I probably needed 4.
3) needed more armories: I only had 1, and was trying to get both air and ground
4) needed faster expanding: Instead of attacking mark's expansions, I should have established one of my own FIRST, then attack, because now Mark couldn't both stop my attack and kill my expansion at the same time.
5) saturate expansions: I needed to get scvs rolling. I didn't have nearly enough scvs.
Still, they were both VERY good games. Mark4 does a good job by not teching to carriers too early, and has good temp control. Still, I am out for ANOTHER rematch.

| #42 (strangers.bragg.ar[17001] |
|
| I haven't made carriers in the past hundred games or so... I just don't think they are quite as good as most people think, and they can get you killed if your timing is not right. To my mind, carriers are what you build when you already won and don't feel like thinking while you finish someone off. |
| #43 Persian-POW (proxy2-external.rdc1.az.home.com)[17008] |
|
| Mark, about the tournament, Excal changed the brackets so now you and McNasty are in the same bracket and also T_Mac dropped out. So, you won't get to beat me or T_Mac until the finals. |
| #44 TheRubberDucky (dfiatx100-044.dsl.gtei.net)[17009] |

| Mark4 u dumbass. You played me under Aqd3 once and had about 3 carriers, one of them which I built and u mcd 3 times=] |

Mark4, NewbieMcNasty... if you play a rematch, and I'm there, I'll BR that if you want. I like that there are genuine bad feelings involved, or at least, there were at one point.
Mark4 is right about carriers... sometimes I make them when someone is carrying me in a 2-2 and my bad Macro has allowed me to stockpile enough resources for 6 stargates and a beacon. |
