Well ever since ducky spanked my terran on dire(my worst map) I lusted for revenge and finally I got it:)

VITAL INFORMATION:
Map:LostTemple
Ghost~lizard(terran)12o'clock
TheRubberDucky(zerg)9o'clock
Observers:Mark4,ProZerg-Hybrid

BATTLE COMMENCES:

I really disliked being schooled by ducky and I promised myself, mark and prozerg that it WASN'T gonna happen again. I go with a super tight new build, depot 8th, 2 rax, refinery, depot, acad. My deion peon scouted and saw that ducky was going 2 hatch inside his main, his ramp wasn't being watched so I decided to do some bunker action. I send 8 marines and an SCV down to his gimme and made 2 bunkers there. I keep bring in more and more troops, I also construct an ebay there to use as a tank spotter, I then make a turret.

TRYING TO CLIMB THE RAMP:

Well now ducky knows that he's bunkered since I smoked a bunch of his lings that tried to run past my bunkers. I try to go up the ramp and make a bunker there but I'm denied and my SCV gets killed. I bring in bats and meds and another SCV,I also get stim, Finally I'm able to make a bunker and a turret on his ramp. I bring in 2 freshly made tanx and start sieging his base, I kill a bunch of lings/hydras and a sunken.

ALMOST THE DOOM DROP:

My siege is going nicely when ducky drops 4 OLs full of hydras on my main, thanx to my good building placement they don't get anything except for my 2 tanx and an SCV that was making a rax.

EXPAND,EXPAND:

Well while our friend is nicely contained I get 2 expansions, 1 at my gimme and another one at the 3o'clock. I also 12 raxes and 1 more ebay along with a starport and a sci facility, some irradiate action is sure to come:)

JAILBREAK:

I really thought I had ducky cooked when he does something really cool, first he comes in with a bunch of hydras and kills my 2 tanx, I have to empty 2 bunkers at his gimme and run to help but he unburrows a bunch of lings right from underneath my marines and they get slaughtered, nice move but its already too late.

KILL THAT EXP GAME:

I keep comsatting and see that ducky expanded to the 6 o'clock, a pimp squad fo M&Ms is quickly dispatched but they step on lurkers, nasty:( I bring in 3 SVs and irradiate those bastards, come in with more M&Ms and mowe down that exp. I leave my troops there, bring in another SCV and claim it for myself, I also put down more raxes and more starports at my exp while pumping mad 3/3 rines and SVs.

KILL THAT EXP GAME, THE SEQUEL:

By now I got the game, i got TONS of M&Ms and my supply limit is about to be reached when I notice that he's got himself an exp at the lower right island, a dropship of stimmed rines end any hopes of its survival.

LAST DITCH EFFORTS:

Everyone knows that ducky is fried(a pun?) when I see him trying to expand yet again, this time to the upper left island, I can't drop anything there cuz he got mucho hydras guarding it, I dmatrix and irradiate my SV and put it right over hydras, it doesn't last too long:( So instead I drop 2 tanx on the ledge and kill they hydras without them firing a back, the hatchery also gets worked over:)

COOKING THE DUCK:

Well, now that ducky is without expansions he announces that he only has 46 minerals left. I think he's begging to be finished off so I grant his wish. I send all my troops down to his exp which include LOTS AND LOTS of M&MS 8+ SVs and 6 or so tanx. I really wanted to rush in but before I did anything I had to deal with 5 lurkers he had burrowed at his ramp, I irradiate the bastards and waltz in. His main goes down fast, I then drop some M&Ms on the island to mop up the extractor and his lords, ducky conceides with a gg.

LESSONS LEARNED:
-M&Ms and SVs put the zerg into a world of hurt.
-Expand, expand, expand I kept expanding and getting depots and raxes while upgrading...just like maynard:)
-Ducky mixes it up, he uses a wide variety of units unlike most other zerg.
-Terran rox!
