This battle was to take place upon the bloodied grounds of Challanger. Both Me and my Oponnent chose to let the gods decid our fates by choosing random as our race. I drew the zerg, bottom, while he drew terran, top.
I started off with a rather conservative build order, pool on 8, extractor on 9, olord, 3 more drones, then a 2nd hatchery. After the 2nd hatchery was morhped I began pumping out zerlgins untill I had 12, once I had 12 I saw with my scouting overlord that he had very few men so I decided to attack. Once I arrived my day was ruined by an equal number of marines who had been away from the area of my overlord, he had hidden them so I would assume he was weak and attack. My zerglings were mercilessly mowed down and all that remained was a spatter of blood...
After savagely crushing my poor zerglings he decided to march on my main, and only base. His marines arrived and attemped a frontal assault, only to be slaughtered by 12 zerglins and a pair of sunken colonies I had morphed while I was attacking him. After this 8 more marines wich had been sent while the first 12 were attacking arrived, and went around to the rear of my base, and began to deystroy me extractor, wich they could hit and stay just out of sunken colony range, luckily he had targeted the extractor and my zerglings were able to attack the marines without being shot at. They stopped the extractor from being deystroyed only to have 8 more marines come in and deystroy it.
Now the mid game sets in, and I morph a hydra den and begin a lair, as well as an expansion at the mineral only near the bottom. At this point I send a scouting zergling out to check for expansions, only to find that I have been bunkered in and that there are turrets and tanks there.
DAMN
As you can imagine I am NOT happy... At this point he begins to leapfrog into my base with tanks and M&M, as he is doing this I have 5 lurkers morhped, and attempt to break his blockade using them, but stupidly lose all of them without killing anything. At this point his tanks deystroy my sunken colonies and his M&M begins to take out my tech tree. Things are NOT looking good.
At this point a scouting wraith finds my expansion and he attacks, and I am finished. The regular round of GGs are passed around as the "You have failed to acheiv victory!" screen rudely pops up and informs me of what I already know, I suck and I lose.
Well this has been the sad story of Phoenix-S- in a rut. Hopefully you people will like it more than my first BR, wich got an AMAZINGLY high 2!!!
Thank you for reading this report by Phoenix-S-!
