"Last in line was Advisor "CB". His nickname was based on "Cattlebruiser", although none of the men were quite sure where the name had come from. Some infantrymen whispered that it came from a particularly bad night back home involving thirteen shots of whiskey, a herd of cattle, and a twenty-two year-old Animal Husbandry major. Others swore on the fact that a bloody cow's head was hung in his locker, a testament of what would happen to the men if they ever got out of line. Whatever the case, CB was fiercely competent."

Well I was only able to watch one of these games between these 2 gosu players. Let me give you a run down of these ppl.
[-Whear-]: Godly player, if you haven’t heard of him then wake up. He is a great player that plays any race. Went to Korea for a time and did a great job there.
Astic-x: If you don’t know him then for GODS sake you should Die. Insanely good player able to play any match up unbelievable well. He has a winning or tied records against gosu players like Tillerman(2-1), Montaro (1-1), Mr.x(5-0), Myst, Sinread, and the list goes on. Lets just say he has come a long way from being :crazy:
Map: LT
Positions: Whear with random toss at 3
Astic with random terran at 9
Whear scouted quick after his pylon on 8 scouting to 12. Astic built his depot near his minerals NO WALLIN and scouted to 12. Both players saw each others races and started a build to combat that.
Whear did a standard goon rush build, pylon, gate, gas, plyon, core, gate. Get those goons out contain early and take the map.
Astic did a different build that I have seen a lot and have been able to go 2-0 with recently in p vs t with him. He goes depot, rax, gas, depot, academy, rax.. He started to mass rines and once the academy was done he added a comstat, researched stim, and got a medic.
Soon Whear’s first goon came with 2 more just jumping out of the gateways. Astic hit the first goon with 1 scv, 3 rines, and 1 med. 1 more rine joined in on the pounding and stim just finished, Whear tried to run the goon to 2 more of his friends but was killed once stim was used. Astic’s second rax was done another rine came bringing his total to 5 rines 1 med. He waited for 2 more rines and hit the 2 goons trying to do some damage. Whear saw the superior forces but was unable to do anything.
Astic then started on a factory, and whear started to reach the templar tech to combat the infantry. Astic waited for a few more units, also starting a CC, and hit whear's ramp with a good 10-12 infantry, astic was able to move up the ramp but ran into a DT. He scanned and killed the first one, but the second was able to remove the forces. Actually astic might have been able to kill it, but instead of risking that he just let it be and made more infantry and kept going up the tech tree heading to SV. Astic’s CC was done and maynard his scvs over. BTW both players never stopped making them. Whear got a probe out to 12 and started on a nexus. Astic then again started to attack whear by sending 2 tanks, 1 vult, an scv, and an assortment of MM. 1 dt came from Whear to hit what it could, but a scan came the dt was removed at the lives of 1 rine. Astic camped outside of whear’s main and started to make bunkers then an ebay so that the tanks siege could hit high ground. Astic being the whore he was expanded again this time to his mineral only. Whear on the other hand had an expo at 12 making probes and he was massing fast zealots instead. Astic had every unit being made. Metal/infantry/SV. He had it coming. Whear made a robo and was trying to ferry his troops outside of his 3 main, maybe to hit astic’s main or to do a flank on the containment. Unfortunately astic was scouting to 12 and 6. He saw the expo and when coming back saw the shuttle. He sent a few troops over there to stop it and was successful.
Whear went to take and island and the 12 mineral only, but unfortunately it was all desperation. Astic added 3 more fact once the mineral only came online and easily ran Whear’s main over with all terran units available to him. He didn’t care about the 12 since it had no major buildings except a gate or 2. Whear asked for a rematch and astic oked it.
Great game by both players. Whear did exactly what any toss player would do. Go for early goons to either break the walling or contain and expand. Astic used a great build and was able to control the game from start to finish.
Scary thing about this is that if whear decides to fast tech to a reaver or a DT, and Astic goes metal then whear is screwed. Just goes to show you that t vs p aint bad at all.
HAPPY NOW CRAZY!!?!?!?!?!?!?
