Lifetime Rating for The-Dark-0ne: 5.6667 |  | Ok well before I begin I better tell you that I never took any pictures so don't expect any.
Well I was stumbling blindly around the mass of bgh games and I magicaly managed to find a 1v1 game on (drum roll please)....oh wait its lost temple (sigh).
The-Dark-0ne: Ok drummers beat it.
Drummer: What about our money?
The-Dark-0ne: You will get it after you leave now piss off!
Well after checking -=-troop+'s stats I am ready to piss myself. 57/19 is a record to be feared by people like me. Now before you ask my pitful record is 65/63. Don't let it delude you if your one of the stupid people who think that is good. I suck. Most newbies can kick the cyber shit outa me. Well if I go down (which I will) I will take a few peons with me (my own hehe).
PRE GAME NOTES
-=-troop+ (who I will now refer to as Troop)
Race: Terran(chosen)
The-Dark-0ne Race: Zerg (random)
GAME ON
Well I spawned at the 6:00 position so immedatly I put my drones to work and send my lord scouting. After hitting 9 control on drones I decide to exp early. I send my 9th drone down to my natural and start contruction of a hactury.
I take a drone of mins and convert it into a spawning pool then build two replacement drones as well as a lord.
Hmm its quiet... too quiet... Oh well back to work. After renforcing my natural with 3 sunkens I put 3 drones on gas and spawn 6 zerglings. I send them off to the 12:00 position to start some shit. I can hear my lings go ahhhhhhhhhh as they charge up the ramp and find...nothing. How humilating well I send them off to 3:00 only to have them cut down by a bunker. One manages to snake though only to be blasted by a tank. A TANK!! ALREADY!! This is bad. This is very bad. Seeing myself in a min excess i spawn two more hacturys at my main. My natural is fully online and I have a lair morphing.
I build 3 evolution chambers and start on upgrades. Well because I have been massing lings like a good boy I decide to strike before he can.
SEND IN THE CLOWN I MEAN LINGS
I race 24 zergling to his base. I position my screen at his ramp and wait and wait and WHERE THE FUCK ARE THEY?! Sensing danger I send a lone zergling to scout only to have it blasted by an tank cannon.
Oh shit he is tank pushing me and I don't have anything.
My lair finished and I start speed upgrade and lurker aspect
while pumping lings and hydra to put a bit of presure on the blockade. 48 lings 13 hydras 3 tanks 6 scvs 4 medics 12 marines and 4 firebats dead later the blockade is smashed
and I am free!!
I exp to the bottom island protecting it with 3 hydras and a ling then start amassing hydras and loading them into lords.
I have about 3 lords filled when I get a base under attack message. I look yes its tanks again this time with science vessals and 3 bunkers with some vultures protecting.
I estimate strongly that the vultures have laid mines in front of the bunkers so i send a lord to check. Hmm I hate being right.
Like the dumbass I am I ingnore it and keep filling lords. When I have 6 lords filled I send them directly north
to the top island then send them east then drop them onto the scv line hehe.
Meanwhile my natural is gone and I am doing all I can to stop him from advancing into my main. Alas all my attempts are futile and tanks start to rain fire on my buildlings.
GENTLEMENT START YOUR ENGINES
So the race to smash your opponents base in was on. He send marines with stim at my hydras but they die to 1/1 needle spines. Firebats rip apart lings at my main but for all I can do he demolishs my buildings before I can kill his last depot so game over.... For him hehe. I love hidden expantions.
LESSONS LEARNED
-Keep defense at your main. If troop had more marines at his
main with tank support he would be crying in joy now not me
-Recon is the key. If I had more recon I could of spotted both tank pushes before they started. He also would of seen
my hydra drop commin and my island exp.
-Don't do fluke drops. If troop had defense it would of been game over for me.
Well hope ya enjoyed. This is my first report so rate kindly please. Oh and by the way I would of done a cool title with colored names and shit except I don't know HTML worth a fuck. If anybody has any tips email me at sixpackman123@hotmail.com
