TOP 5, Quotes of the Month !


MUAHAHA u guys getting funnier each month. I love you all, remember to keep talking its hilarious :).

OK, I was on battle net with my friend OrcManiac and we were looking for some 2v2s. We finally got two opponnents to play: Ko[B]old and Whoop`. After a short game on Mausoleum that me and Orc won, Whoop come back in channel and said "i'll 1v1 someone now" . Ko[B]old takes the challenge!. I tell players that i could Battle report the game if it was a Terran vs Protoss with Whoop` as Terran. The game start and me and Orc had to observe whoop getting killed to a DT rush. :[ Bleh rematch this guys ! Whoop` prolly had ISP problems because he never get back on for rematch. Oooooh Boooooya! NAH that's not a report with the great Whoop`. Huk ^^. After waiting a couples of minutes to Afk-X to get back on, OrcManiac decided he could never get enought of being in Frenchy Production battle report and he got on the players spots. Fine , all see 3 ?, no tmac plz, gl hf and let's play!

MAIN EVENT

And here we go ...


Our first imbalance game here will oppose The furious Zerg Swarm against the underdog Protoss. I know lots of people think that match up is balanced but i dont think that on a map like temple with a lot of expansions this match up is really fair.



MAP: The Lost Temple

PLAYERS:
OrcManiac (Random Protoss) start at 9.
Ko[B]old (Random Zerg) start at 3.

OBSERVERS: King-Lewis.

Both players were log on othere others nicks: OrcManiac was log onto his clan nickname Assaillant-X and Ko[B]old left the [B] clan to join ronin's ~ clan and was under ~Bold. The game starting very normally on the protoss side. OrcManiac is going with a normal build order of 2 gateway zealots. But, it seem his Zerg opponenet want to finish it quick as he starts a 9 pool build order with fast gas.Ko[B]old seems to have technicals difficulties with this 9 pool build order when i saw him canceling a egg and losing a larva right when his spawing pool is morphed. D'oh that 3rd larva finally coming from the hatchery but the mighty rush is already late on schedule. Ok Ko[B]old finally got his 6 lings and he is heading to the ennemy!. Doh! the zerglings are on attack-move and they coming back to base following a probe that OrcManiac assigned for a scout task. As soon as Ko[B]old realize his Zerglings stupidity he send em back to the 6 spot ! (Yep, he still havent found OrcManiac with his lords scout :[) OMG can this 9 pool come more late please. Ko[B]old finally heading to the 9 spot...
Ko[B]old got really disappointed when he saw that OrcManiac already got 5 zealots at his choke point. Teee Heee guess what guys ... the rush didnt work at all.



Now that the devil rush has been help off, OrcManiac send 6 zealots to the ennemy base. With only a morphing Lair and 2 zerglings of defense, Ko[B]old conceded the game ... BAD MANNER !)(@#!*)(#@ not even a "GG" were exchanged by players. From this game, we can all conclude that Protoss own Zerg hardcore ! Its a proven fact now.



Now that we proved that protoss own zerg, both players accepted to rematch the last game. So be ready because we going to fight another imbalance right here, right now !.




MAP: The Lost Temple

PLAYERS:
OrcManiac (Random Zerg) start at 6.
Ko[B]old (Random Terran) start at 12.

OBSERVERS: King-Lewis.

Here we go again for another imbalance fight.
Ko[B]old, who have put on his imbalance hack before game start with a normal 2 barracks build with his raffinery up short after. OrcManiac will go with a much more risky build with a second and a third hatchery at his natural. With the 2 extractors in place, he will also get Lair at natural as soon as his spawning pool is complete. When Ko[B]old scouts will report that fast expansion, he will immidiatly get a factory and startport up for a fast cliff siege attempt.

At this point i wasnt too sure about what OrcManiac was up to. With only 3 sunkens for defense, OrcManiac dont seem he want to stop tecking when he morphing a Queen Nest at his natural. Hive will follow up soon but still no sign of Spire. Well lets talk about it later beacause Ko[B]old mighty cliff siege is coming !.

Heh, OrcManiac may have lost his mining ability at his natural but remember that he had gas for a long time and look what have found hiding in OrcManiac base. Yes Yes the Spire his coming !. OrcManiac will also try to compensate the lost of his natural when he morph a new hatchery at his mineral-only expansion.

Ko[B]old keep his harrasment on orc base with another tricky siege tank between the 6 and 9 spot. Ko[B]old now knowing that OrcManiac is going guards/devourers with his cliff siege, is building another starport. Some wraiths are now under construction. While this Spire is morphing to a greater one, Ko[B]old will also send a small group of marines/medics to immediatly kill that mineral-only expansion
That was of course before Guardians / Devourers finally got finish morphing ...



After this fight, OrcManiac takes the lead of the game because he haven't lost many troops and he had been able to keep production. He is now heading to the Terran base with a sizable force of Guardians/Devourers/Hydralisks. On the other side, Ko[B]old havent been able to keep up production during the attack and is now remaking a small army of tanks/marines/wraiths. Science facility is now under constrution.

Unfortunatly for OrcManiac, he send his overlords 1st and his Guardians were slown down by a little groupe of marines still in front of zerg base. Ko[B]old will immediatly send his 5 cloaked wraith to kill 6 guardians before the dumbs overlords are back for detection.


When overlords are back, wraiths will quickly die to devourers/hydras and OrcManiac will keep going to Terran base. Ko[B]old decided to confront OrcManiac troops and he left his base with his whole army. Ko[B]old will have to win this fight because OrcManiac is now expanding at his mineral-only and starting an hatchery at the 9 main.

" ARE YOUR READY FOR A WAR !!! " -William Wallace



The rest of OrcManiac troops keep marching to Ko[B]old base and with the help of new born hydralisks, Ko[B]old wont be able to hole the swarm. He will concede the game short after. OH yeah Zerg own terran !







Ok, this time we need to be serious ... We are now entering in the most imbalanced match-up of all, the God Damn Protoss vs the very underdog Terran. Those races are also the best races of the players. OrcManiac proven himself to be one of the best terran players of Nohunters and Nwtr ( Even tho he claim himslef to be the "best zerg of bnet" hehe ). Ko[B]old who is prolly the more improved player i know since met him on battle.net have devellop pretty descent Protoss skillz and this promise to be a very good game. Get ready now because the fight against imbalance continue !




MAP: The Lost Temple

PLAYERS:
OrcManiac (Picked Terran) start at 12.
Ko[B]old (Picked Protoss) start at 9.

OBSERVERS: King-Lewis.


Ko[B]old who was not happy at all of the result of the first two games give himself a ultimatum during the pregame chat : . Ko[B]old will also beneficy of some others advantages for this final match. 1) OrcManiac got the 12 spot (who sucks for terran), 2) He is PURPLE !! Whoa! watch out guys PURPLE power can be very dangerous ...


Ok. now both players know each other race so it got an effect on the early builds. Ko[B]old will start with (of course) a gay Dark templar rush and he will also take a fast expansion at the 6 main. OrcManiac will start with a 2 depots wallin and ... )(@#!@ a Command Center to float to island !!. Fast factory and two starports will come short after and yes it is ! The startegy OrcManiac invented that Uprgaded_Probe stole and posted on Shocks Forum. Teee Heee.

FIRST BLOOD!: You kill my expansion i kill yours ...

After both players turtled a bit (OrcManiac making his wraiths army, Ko[B]old making observers/shuttle and a little DT/Goons containement), they both went to offensive at the same time ... On his side OrcManiac send his wraiths to the 6o'cloak expansion, while Ko[B]old loaded a shuttle with 2 dark templars, one Templar and a zealot and is heading to the island expansion, who got found with a well placed observer.


Meanwhile, players havent sit on their butt... OrcManiac have build two command centers to his natural and mineral-only expansions. Ko[B]old will not let orc get away on the ressource war when he rewarp his lost Nexus at 6 and warp a fresh new one at the 3 o'cloak main. Ko[B]old also built a sizable army of goons/dt/zeals/templars who is sitting in front of OrcManiac base. OrcManiac keep follwing HIS awesome Terran vs Protoss strategy and with 4 tanks 2 bunkers defense, he is now pumping BATTLECRUISERS from 3 starports !. Weeeeee BCs. OK lets take a Mini-Map Break to see whats going on ...


After ammassing a little more troops in front of OrcManiac base, Ko[B]old decided to test OrcManiac defenses when he load 2 dark templars in his dropship to drop em on tanks while he attack with the rest of his army. OrcManiac hold this attack easily enought without major loses. OrcManiac who made an abusing use of comsat during this game found that Nexus at the 3 spot. He will send his 3 remaining wraiths to try to slow down Ko[B]old mining at this spot. Prolly thinking that OrcManiac got more than 3 cloaked wraiths, Ko[B]old abandon that expansion and decided to kill OrcManiac mineral-only expansion to make it even.
The problem for Ko[B]old now is that he havnt been able to kill OrcManiac mineral-only command center and that the expansion will be fastly back on track. Another problem is that Ko[B]old main just been dry and with only a few probes mining at his 6 o'cloak expansion, he got now a serious ressources problem. He will now be forced to hurt OrcManiac soon enought if he want to get back in the game...

A Final Attempt ... and a secret finally revealed !

Ko[B]old charge OrcManiac base with his new zealots/DTs/Templars army and the attack is going very well until OrcManiac finally show up is secret weapon: 8 BattleCruisers ! Weeeeeeeeeee...

Probably pissed by this bitch ass " Hi " , with no real way he can kill those BattleCruisers and knowing that he is far behind on the ressources War ... Ko[B]old conceded the game to OrcManiac. OH yeah u guessed it right : Terran OWN protoss!



LESSONS LEARN

1. Protoss own Zerg.
2. Zerg own Terran.
