| Hey hey! IATECLOWNS
here, formly known as IEATCLOWNS. With some
help from a shrink I am clean now. Anyways I miss the padded walls.
Many moons ago I was in Nohunters and finally got a chance to watch a game.
It was a decent game so I decided to BR it.
P.S. The pics in this Battle Report are rather large. If any of you are on a modem, go get something to eat and drink then come back. If any of the pics don't load, right click them and select "Show Picture".
Enjoy.
Game One started
off with [SJ]FearFactory
randoming Purple Zerg at 12, while his enemy, .MrPotential.
randomed Teal Protoss at 3. [SJ]FearFactory
quickly sent his Overlord to 3, which find
.MrPotential.
in a due ammount of time. The Build Orders are as follows:
[SJ]FearFactory
knows what .MrPotential.
is building because his Overlord is hanging
around in base. Just before the second Gateway is done, .MrPotential.
sends a Zealot and a Probe towards [SJ]FearFactory.
A minor mistake is made, as the Probe is hauling a load of minerals with
him. After discovering [SJ]FearFactory's Hatchery
(below the ramp) they start to attack it. [SJ]FearFactory's
Spawning Pool as just finished. The small
attack are quickly joined by another Zealot however [SJ]FearFactory's
first 6 Zerglings are being made. Another
Zealot reachs the attack site, just after the 6 Zerglings storm down the
ramp and 2 new Zerglings hatch at the Hatchery which is quickly losing
Hit Points. The 3 Zealots and 1 Probe retreat, however the Zerglings chase
them. .MrPotential. was
hoping he would do this, because he had another Zealot that just reached
[SJ]FearFactory's Choke
Point. They turned around and killed one Zergling before [SJ]FearFactory
pulled his Zerglings back. He had also used
this time to start a Creep Colony beside the Hatchery that was targeted
by .MrPotential.'s Protoss
warriors. More Zerglings are being made and after playing cat and mouse,
[SJ]FearFactory buys
some time, allowing his new Zerglings to hatch. A breif Battle happens,
in which [SJ]FearFactory loses
a far ammount of Zerglings, however after losing all but one Zealot, .MrPotential.
pulls back. The Zerglings chase it ofcourse
and after getting stuck between the Minerals from .MrPotential.'s
second natural, the Zealot is ripped apart
by the Zerglings.
[SJ]FearFactory
counters asap by
sending 8 Zerglings towards .MrPotential.'s
main. This was perfect timing because .MrPotential.
had just sent a Probe to begin warping in
an Assimilator and unless .MrPotential. wasn't
spending all his minerals, was short one Zealot. .MrPotential.
had 2 Zealots at the bottom of the Ramp and
once seeing the Zerglings ran them up the ramp, but they go too far and
must fight the Zerglings on flat ground. Ofcourse we know 8 Zerglings >
2 Zealots. However two more Zealots are warped in. Once again though, [SJ]FearFactory
Swarm is victorious and the 3 Zerglings that remain target .MrPotential.'s
Probes. They kill SEVEN probes before being
killed by newly warped in Zealots.
Build
Up
| [SJ]FearFactory
adds more
2 more Hatchery's for a Total of 5. He also builds two Evolution Chambers
and a Hdryalisk Den. He looks like he is going to begin powering Hdryalisks
like a whore. .MrPotential. adds
a Cybernasitcs Core and makes a Dragoon. This sounds small but [SJ]FearFactory
has forgotten about Sven the Overlord in .MrPotential.'s
base. Although he fly as fast as he could,
Sven couldn't escape the Plasma blasts from the Dragoon and exploded into
a huge ball of blood and guts. .MrPotential.
also adds a Robotics |
 |
Facility which
once complete begins production of a Shuttle and soon a Probe is dispatched
to warp in a Robotics Support Bay, .MrPotential.
is teching to Reavers no doubt. He was also
researching Dragoon Range which would surely be an asset.
The Good
Stuff
Once .MrPotential.'s
Shuttle is complete, he loads 2 Dragoons and
drops them on [SJ]FearFactory's cliff.
They target a overlord which is near the cliff, but unlike Sven, escapes
with his life. 5 Hdryalisks are sent to engage the Dragoons dispite being
below them. They do a far ammount of damage, mainly because there is an
Overlord near the cliff. One Dragoons dies, and the other is badly damaged
when another Shuttle fly over. It dropped one Dragoon on the cliff and
a Reaver below it. It fires a scarab at a Hdryalisk, and kills it along
with several drones, however more Hdryalisks are sent and destroy the Reaver
not before it totals 6 kills however. With-out Reaver support the Dragoons
are killed easily and the Protoss assualt is halted.
As you can see
on the Mini-Map, a small Purple line is heading to the 9 O'clock natural.
You can't see that it is Hdryalisks and 2 Drones with them. [SJ]FearFactory
morphs a Hatchery above the Ramp, but doesn't
make one at the mining area. .MrPotential. takes his first expansion when
he warps in a Nexus at his Natural.
During this
time, [SJ]FearFactory has
massed a fairly large army Hdryalisks with a few Zerglings, and sets about
half of them near .MrPotential.'s Mineral
only. .MrPotential. planning
a attack himself, sets his army of Zealots and Dragoons on the other side
of the Mineral only expansion. The 2 army's could not see each other but
where very close. .MrPotential. also
has a Shuttle with 2 Reavers in it, and is sending it towards [SJ]FearFactory's
Main, but runs into Hdryalisks and is shot
down. Then the Zerg swarm attacks...
As you can see,
[SJ]FearFactory simple
overan .MrPotential. with
Hdryalisk's. I wonder though, could the game have been diffrent if the
Shuttle didn't get destoryed. Those 2 Reavers could have changed the game.
But the Shuttle and Reavers did die, and [SJ]FearFactory
won.
