JennyX/Swifty…
VS. }{olyTuER/Smacka$$
Well guys, here is my first attempt at a battlereport. I hope you all enjoy!
To begin with, the original idea was for kkad and mywife4hire to play against
}{olyTuer and Smacka$$. I was going to do the first battle report on this game.
What happened was Tuer made the game and everyone but Wife joined. Kkad said
that wife changed his mind and didn’t want to play (on Temple). So Tuer made
another game on Hunters and everyone but Kkad joined. Wife said that he never
indicated that he didn’t want to play, blah blah blah, so I said what the hell
Ill play with swifty and get our buts kicked, and so the game begins.
Each team chose races:
JennyX picks Terran and winds up top
left.
Swifty... picks Toss and apears bottom
right.
}{olyTuER picks toss and ends up bottom left.
Smacka$$
picks Terran plopping down mid right.
 Discodan! And Galroth were the observers/screen shot taking
people. The game starts with some scouting, and building (duh?). JennX
didn’t do too well scouting because Smack
had time to fill a bunker at JennX's
choke. While Swifty microed his way out of a 2v1 attack, JennX
went to town on killing the bunker.
Swifty
fights off attacks from both Smack
and Tuer on his main, and gets a probe
out to mid left, and after things settle down for Swifty,
JennX starts to push into Tuer’s
base.
A few towers, tanks and a bunk block Tuer
in for a bit while JennX and Swifty
have a chance to expand, and Smack
masses units and techs.
This wasn’t going to last very long, after scanning Tuer,
JennX/Swifty see that he is
getting DT and Temps. Tuer breaks
through the blockade fairly easily and JennX
falls
back
to mid map. And if you look up top, Smack
found JennX's top mid expansion and
dropped enough forces to destroy it. Later in the game, Swifty
sends zealots/goons to mid bottom to take out any possible expansion.
Cash
starts to run out as both teams search for new expansions. JennX
takes 2 at top mid, Swifty has his running at mid left, and Tuer
gets 2 more expansions after losing his on mid bottom. JennX
scans Tuer to assess*
his defense, and then decides to push on Tuer.
Smack attempts again to expand top
right.
JennX and Swifty
take out Smack's natural expansion
and push him back into his base. Meanwhile, Tuer
makes a push into the middle.
Once Smack was contained,
JennX tanks the probes at Tuer’s
middle expansion. Swifty gets enough troops together and pushes
into Tuer's last area for resources.
The push continues all the way into the bottom middle expansion,
where Tuer and Smack
rallied their troops for one last stand. But the expansion wouldn’t hold.
At this point I received everyone’s favorite message “waiting for players:”
And yes it does get worse….
At this point my computer crashed completely (perfect timing
at the end of the game). While I rebooted my computer and re-logged, Swifty
finished up the game by the time I got back. It was a great match-up and
both teams did very well (if I do say so myself, although Swifty
did most of the work) I hope everyone enjoys this battle report as much
as we did playing the game.
