As I settled into channel....um....well it doesn't really matter, i surveyed the scene before me. My three fellow channel surfers were debating on the type of game to play. Screams of "2v1, 3v1, 4v0" were shouted as I scanned through my list of maps. I then told everyone "2v1 I watch". You see, TheSparky was the owner of about 320 people, and the other two guys thought it would be more fair to have a 2v1 against him. So I made the game, they joined, they randomed, blah blah blah and the game was off.
I was astounded as the Lost Temple map was entirely clear to me, and then I remembered that I was observing........I'm an ass. Anyway, TheSparky drew Yellow Terran at 6, Kenny drew Red Protoss at 12, and Pub drew Purple Protoss at 9. At the start of this game, I had no idea I would be reporting this, so the details are somewhat slim.
TheSparky decides to do a heavy metal build, walling in his choke and scouting with a lone SCV. He finds Pub at 9 and Kenny at 12, though his SCV gets blown to bits by two zealots. Kenny does a very unique build, consisting of two gateways at his choke and another pylon to support cannons at his ledge. Pub does something even worse. He builds a pylon at his choke, waits for a long time, then builds a forge. After a few more minutes of waiting, he builds a pylon at the bottom of TheSparky's choke. TheSparky sees this, however, and kills the probe and then the pylon with 3 marines. After getting gas, TheSparky constructs two factories, each with a machine shop, while also getting an acad and engineering bay. Kenny gets zealots and dragoons, while researching shields. Pub goes dragoons, zealots and dts.
TheSparky sends vultures to mine the bottom of both players' chokes, while pumping more vultures and tanks. He then constructs 3 more barracks and 2 armories and 2 starports. (This will be the part where I will be very general and undetailed) For the next couple of minutes, all players build up their troops, while TheSparky expands to his natural, Pub expands to his natural, and Kenny expands to the 9 o'clock starting position. TheSparky starts pumping mass infantry and factory units, and upgrades all his units to 1/1. The other two players do.....nothing, expanding only once for the entire game. TheSparky takes histhe middle by mining it with 341625467336 spider mines, and expanding to his mineral-only and the bottom right island.
He then slowly starts to do a tank push that branches off to both players. He destroys their expansions, thereby taking them for himself, increasing his expansion total to about 6, while Pub remains unupgraded. TheSparky loses mucho units to the defending Protoss, but pushes them back to their main bases, eventually destroying those too. But in the end, all players ally, and the game ends with a "You Failed to Achieve Victory".....WTF? O well, it was just a use map settings game. |
