Lifetime Rating for PooHandler: 7.3125 |  | I don't know what you guys thought of that I.S. report I did. It was pretty dumb, but it was just for fun. Kind of a joke between my friend and I. Anyway, this is gonna be a real report. I fixed some more shit, like that white stripe down the side and I'll try to make my report flow a little more like Dagomar told me to do. Lemme know how you like this one.
I'm such a loser. After nearly a year of playing SC/BW, I just recently found out about NH. I sign on to B.Net and my friend whispers me with, "Dude, you have got to come to Clan ~Nohunters, right now!" So I stroll in, in suspense as to what would happen, and who do I just happen to come across. I couldn't even believe it, Testosterone AND ThePalisade. It was so awsome. And then this guy, yare[cF], asks if anyone wants to 1v1. Testosterone quickly answered and accepted the challenge. So yare[cF] starts up a game and publicly announces the name to everyone. I thought, "Holy shit, Testosterone is going to play a game? I have GOT to see this." I joined the game and after some quick DL's, the game got started..........
And on to the build orders, not for the faint of heart.(J/K)
Both players start out with the usual scouting and whatnot. Testosterone sends  out his Probe for scouting after making his first Pylon and yare[cF] sends his OV out after putting his Drones to work on the minerals. Once Testosterone finds yare[cF] he starts screwing around with the Drones a little to throw his early economy off track. yare[cF]'s OV found the bottom right base to be barren and suxually unpleasent, so he made a left turn and began the long, slow journey up to the top right base where Testosterone lies, undiscovered.
Testosterone begins the casual making of Lots while yare[cF] goes for Lings at 2 Hatcheries and begins a speed upgrade as soon as the Pool is finished mutating. About halfway through the upgrade, yare[cF] starts an expansion a little bit outside his main at a mineral/gas expansion with a few Lings there for protection.
Once yare[cF] has a pretty decent force of speed upgraded Lings, he runs 2 groups over to Testosterone's base. He runs one group around the back of Testosterone's base, about parallel to his mineral line, but to the extreme left so he isn't seen. The he runs another group right into the front and begins the distraction of the Lots. Once this has comensed, he runs his first group around to the minerals and starts attacking Probes. The probes quickly run away, and due to some slick micro with Lots, Testosterone manages to kill all of the Lings without too much of a loss of economy.
 yare[cF] is now in the process of evolving faster Hydra movement and Testosterone starts up another Gateway. yare[cF] brings in another group of Lings and tries to sneak them by Testosterone's army of Lots, but it's no good. Testosterone sees him and chases him to the mineral line and quickly disposes of the annoying pests.
At about the same time as the Ling attack above, Testosterone begins his expansion at a spot close to his main. Here is how the map control currently stands....
After pretending to run the Lings away, yare[cF] runs them back in and actually manages to sneak them in this time. They go straight to work on a Gateway and manage to destroy it just before Testosterone comes in with his Lots and fucks their plan all up.
yare[cF] is ready for another attack, and beats Testosterone to the punch, who was also ready to attack. yare[cF] brings in a large group of Hydras he has been working on, up against a whole lot of Zealots with 2 Templar(no storm yet) and a DT. They clash like a nuclear explosion went off. Blood and psi everywhere, but in the end, Testosterone comes out victorious. His Lots were just too much, even for the large amount of Hydras yare[cF] brought in.
Testosterone begins warping in 2 more Gates and has also finished the Storm upgrade. He has made some more Templar and they are waiting outside his base for the next attack, whenever it may be. Testosterone brings a lone DT over to another one of yare[cF]'s expansions and starts to take out some Hydras. With no detector around it should be easy work right? Well, lucky for yare[cF], he had an OV on the way and it hatched just in time to save the Hydras.
yare[cF] comes in with a new plan this time.  Lurkers. He brings 3 of them in followed by a bunch of Hydras. The Lurkers get just out of range of the Zealots and Templar and burrow. Then the Hydras try to micro them out into the spines. All of Testosterone's units fall back to the base and wait for the Observer, which is currently on the way, at the Robotics Facility. All units are evenly upgraded at this point with 1 upgrade on attack and 1 on armor for both players.
Testosterone's Observer finishes and he brings it out to his choke along with 8 Dragoons. They are instantly attacked by Lurkers who were waiting the whole time, but now they have their trusty Observer with them and the Lurkers stand no chance.
Now, with a huge army of Lots, Goons, and Templar, Testosterone finally starts his long awaiting journey over to yare[cF]'s base. He stops on the way, though, to fight off a pack of rabid Hydras that are in his way. But while his offensive units are away, yare[cF] brings in an Overlord with 2 Lurkers inside and Drops them, 1 on Testosterone's main, and 1 on his Expansion. The Probes run away and the Lurkers are taken out as fast as possible, due to the site of the observers and the power of the Goons, which are quickly rushed back to save the base.
So after the need to spread out and take care of the Lurkers, Testosterone gather his units back together and proceeds on. He reaches the base and, with the help of 2/2 upgrades, mass Goons, and enough Templar and storm to take out anything in his way, Testosterone plows through yare[cF]'s base like a bullbozer through a cardboard box. Well, maybe not that easilu, but, nevertheless he trashed his base. The following is a little something I cooked up to visually show the carnage that Testosterone is capable of.....
(ding ding ding) Ladies and gentlemen, the winner is......Testosterone(cheering)
Well guys, there you have it. My third BR. I stayed up all night until about 4:30 in the morning doing this thing, so I hope you guys enjoy it. I tried to listen to all your advice up to now and throw it all into one report, but I'm sure someone will have something to complain about in the comments section, so I guess I should just keep learning and getting better. Peace.
Here is the
Replay. Definitely give it a look. It kicks ass. |
