Alright fellas, here it is, my second report. Be sure to read the alt text :o). After my first report did not get very good ratings because the game did not lost very long, and wasnt really that good, I went into NH, and asked ..(Myst).., and CyanBloodBane!, now ..(Cyan).. if they wanted to be in one of my battle reports. Both of them agreed, and Myst made the game. He made it on a map made on Lost Temple, called Mmm~Donuts Colorful PGL LT. Anyways, the map was just like LT, but had different colors, which you will see in a second. And you might want to wait for all the pics to load, it makes the report a lot better I think.
Game 1
..(Myst).. chose Zerg of course, and ..(Cyan).. randomed to Terran. Myst spawned his drones at the 12:00 position, and Cyan commanded his SCV's from the 9:00 starting point. The build orders went something like this...
Myst then began mutating a lair, and also spawned in 4 lings, in case of an early attack, or to kill a scout before it saw the lair.
Cyan walled himself in  and it was successful, as Myst's 4 lings he'd spawned earlier could not get a peek inside Cyan's base, and were forced to retreat. Myst then expands to his natural, and shortly after begins mutating a spire.
Back at Cyan's walled in base, he begins construction on a factory, and right after begins building a starport, and along with Myst they are both obviously going for air. After Cyan finishes the building of a wraith, he starts a Control Tower. He uses the attack/move command and sends the wraith over to harass Myst's drones. The wraith flies over Myst's 4 lings that he used to scout with earlier, and begins shooting them.
After Myst's spire finished, he immediately began spawning 3 mutas from his expansion hatch. Almost as soon as Cyan commands his wraith to leave the lings alone and go after Myst's drones, Myst's mutas are done, and he sends them over to his lings. The wraith then shows up at Myst's main and begins shooting missiles at the helpless overlord. Myst commands his mutas to fly back to his base and get rid of the pesky flying tin foil. The wraith flyer screams mayday as the gas tanks explodes, leaving ruins over the Hive cluster...but not really though. Actually the wraith just explodes, leaving Myst with no casualties, just a 150 hp overlord.
Myst then mutates 2-3 more mutas, and goes around to the soft underbelly of Cyan's Terran encampment. He then goes straight for the vulnerable SCV mining line, and no bunker/missile turret is there to distract the mutas. Cyan quickly sends over his marines, and Myst pulls back after killing 1 or 2 marines.
Cyan had begun construction on an Engineering Bay earlier, and now began building a missile turret at hes peon line, as well as leaving a handful of rines there. Myst then attacks from the side of Cyan's base, finding an easy target in a slow dropship. He begins attacking the dropship, and Cyan is forced to move his marines once again. Myst once agains pulls his mutas back, brings them back around to the bottom of Cyan's base and again attacks the SCV line, the missile turret is almost finished, but the marines are still near the starport. Myst pulls his mutas back for the last time, and begins sending the 4 lings from the beginning of the game, as well as 4 more fresh ones.
Myst simutaneously sends in the mutas for the peon line, and the lings from the front, knowing that Cyan had little or no defense there from his previous air raids.
Cyan had also built an academy earlier, and had 2 medics, but the 8 rines and 2 medics weren't enough to battle back Myst's attack.Myst then sends the mutas over to help break down the wall made from a rax and a depot.
The mutas and lings then dispose of all unit producing buildings, and Cyan, knowing the game is over, concedes.
Myst then declared that it would be a best of 3 game series. 
Game 2
In this game, Myst once again chose Zerg, while Cyan randomed, and also ended up as Zerg. Myst mutated his hatch at the 6:00 position, and Cyan mutated at the 12:00 position.
And, of course, the build orders went like this...
You didn't see the pool on Myst's side, because he mutated 3 hatcheries before finally building a spawning pool, while Cyan 7-pooled, and he had 6-8 lings, but for some reason sent them to the 9:00 position, even though he'd already scouted with his overlord and found Myst's base at the bottom.
After Cyan sent the lings to the 9:00 starting point, he sent them next down to Myst's real base...(did he have a fake one?), and attacked Myst's third hatchery until it was down to a few hp, then Myst cancelled it. Cyan proceeded into Myst's defenseless base, and attacked his newly made spawning pool.
Myst had 12 lings spawning, 3 eggs from each hatch, and just barely saved his spawning pool, which was down to 44 hp when the last ling died...yes Cyan, 44 hps between you and the game...all you had to do was send the lings to the right base.
Myst then sent his remaining lings to his choke, and once again began mutating a third hatch. He then built 2 evolution chambers, and began evolving melee attack and carapace. When he saved up enough minerals, he built a few creep colonies and mutated them into spores to keep Cyan's overlords from seeing what was going on in his base.
Both Cyan and Myst begin pumping lings from their three hatches, and Cyan masses about 3-4 control groups of lings outside Myst's base, and sends one up to see what's going on. He's greeted with about 60 lings at Myst's choke, and the brave ling promply squeals and dies. Cyan sends another control group of lings down, and sends one more up to scout.
When Cyan makes sure he wasn't just seeing things, he takes all his lings back to his base.
Myst waits until his upgrades are done, and sends his lings after Cyan's. Myst had speed ugrade, while Cyan didn't and Cyan caught sight of Myst's linst pursuing him.  Back at his home base Cyan begins mutating about 3 creep colonies to be made into sunkens. Cyan positions his lings at his choke so Myst's cannot get by them and swarm. By the time Myst's lings break through, Cyan has 2 sunkens morphed, and 1 that morphs right after. Cyan also has a mutalisk, but the three sunkens and 1 mutalisk are not enough to stop Myst's 1/1 lings.
Again Cyan concedes the game.
Pointers from good players...
+1 armor and attack make a big difference. The first game when Myst had the flyers, he used hit and run tactics, and i don't think he lost 1 unit the whole game.
