Yup yup, today is April 27th, my birthday is May 2, i'm gonna be 14... anyways, who cares :D. Let's get on with the report! As always, i was idling in NoHunters for a couple of hours, then came back, chatted, played some UMS, blah blah blah blah... then i wanted to do a BR, so i asked if someone was gonna play, and to that, BW-Sux and Doom- raised their hands.

They played a first game, on Rivalry, Doom- was Protoss at Bottom Left, BW-Sux was Zerg at Top Left. The game was pretty quick, BW-Sux sent his overlord clockwise, while Doom- sent his scouting probe (i'm gonna borrow the name Deon from "someone" :) ) in clockwise as well. Deon found the base quick, and noticed BW-Sux was going for an economical build, so Doom- went Pylon-Gateway-Assimilator-Pylon-Gateway and Probe+Zealot rushed BW-Sux, game was over quick.

We went back to channel Sux and they rematched, this time on Lost Temple. Let's go with the main match now =)

Yes, another one sided battle :(

Players: Doom- (Random Protoss), BW-Sux (Random Protoss)
Starting Positions: Doom- at 6', BW-Sux at 12'.
Map: i2e2 The Lost Temple
Game: Starcraft: Brood Wars
Gametype: Use Maps Settings
Observers: Sexy_Bengalaas (A.k.a. Random_Doom)

BW-Sux was the first to move, with a Pylon at 6 Supply. Doom- went for Supply Depot + Barracks at 9, and sent his scouting SCV to 12', thus finding BW-Sux at his first try. BW-Sux then warped in a Pylon and a Gateway when his supply hit 9. His scouting Probe was moving clockwise, and was at this time at 3' main, and found Doom- shortly after. Doom-'s SCV was still in the base when BW-Sux finally got his first Zealot, sending it to chase the SCV, which ran to BW-Sux's Mineral-Only expansion.

At 11, Doom- built a Refinery and a Depot, finishing his choke wall. At this time BW-Sux had 12 probes + 2 Zealots, so he warped a Cybernetic Core and an Assimilator, either going for Quick Dragoons or DT rush.Here, you can see Doom- attempting his GoSu move.



Now, Doom- starts building 2 Factories at his main, and equips them with Workshops, going Mass Tanks. BW-Sux warps another Pylon. Doom- now uses the Scouting SCV that is at BW-Sux's Mineral-Only expansion to build a factory, then lifts it up and lands it on the edge of BW-Sux's base. At this point BW-Sux just got his first dragoon, and sends it around his base, suspecting Doom-'s gosu move. He was right, Doom- started building Vultures at BW-Sux's main, but BW-Sux forced him to lift off with the dragoon. BW-Sux then warps in a Citadel of Adun, and a 2nd Gateway.

 



Doom- now starts pumping out 2 tanks out of his 2 factories, then 2 vultures + a tank, as his Siege Mode research finishes. BW-Sux warps in a Templar Archive, and a 3rd gateway. As the Archive finishes, he starts pumping out DTs and goons, and starts researching Leg Upgrade, as Doom- builds an Engineering Bay and a Command Center, and an Academy.

BW-Sux expand at his natural and warps in a Forge, while Doom- lifts off his CC and sends it to Bottom Right corner. Also, Doom- started building 2 Starports, going mass wraiths, and adds a Comsat Station to his CC. In the meantime, BW-Sux fortified his defences with Photon Cannons and started researching Ground Weapon Upgrade, plus warps an Assimilator at his natural expansion.

As BW-Sux's cannons finish, Doom- landed his CC in bottom right, training SCVs. He also builds a Missile Tower at his choke, fearing the DTs. By now he has about 5 tanks, 3 vultures and 3 wraiths. He then lands his wandering Factory on the cliff above BW-Sux's main, and starts building some vultures. As soon as he gets 2 vultures from that factory, he sends them on the ledge and starts attacking the expansion.

BW-Sux counterattacks by making a Robotic Facility and then proceed to the drop of 4 Dark Templars, which are quickly dispatched by the vultures and a Comsat Sweep. In the meantime, Doom- built 2 armories in the Bottom Right expansion, researching Vehicule Plating and Weaponry, and shortly after this proceeded to the drop of 2 sieges on BW-Sux's cliff. (Is that what u call a "Turbo-Chobo???")Doom-'s Containment ForceDTs = excellent expansion killers :D

 

 

 

 

 

 

At this exact time BW-Sux expanded to 3', and sent his shuttle with the 4 DTs (mentionned eariler) around the map, following Doom-'s Transport, thus destroying all his expansion attempts. Although BW-Sux DID nullify Doom-'s expansion chances, he payed the price by losing his 12' natural expansion. Doom- counters by making an attack force of 8 Tanks, 3 Goliaths, 4 Wraiths, and a Vulture, to contain BW-Sux.

 

Just as BW-Sux's 3' expansion finishes, he maynars some peons and makes an assim at the expansion, as Doom- starts sending his containment force to BW-Sux's main. This containment force is now composed of around 6 Wraiths, 17 Siege Tanks, 6 goliaths, and 3 vultures. BW-Sux's defence is simply a few zealots with 4 cannons and 2 High Templars. Doom- starts building a Science Facility (correct name?) aware that BW-Sux has DTs.

As soon as BW-Sux sees the containment force in front of him he starts pumping out zealots like crazy, but the zealots are not enough for the Siege Goliaths Vultures and Wraiths, and a newly bought SV to help. BW-Sux sends his shuttle of DTs to the Lower Right corner, suspecting Doom- to have expanded there, and, of course, he destroyed his expansion in a few sweeps =). By this time, Doom- has just finished expanding to his natural.

Doom-, knowing that he doesn't needs all those units to contain BW-Sux, sends 6 sieges and 5 goliaths to attack the 3' expansion, which is caught by suprise, without any defence except probes. After rasing the 3' expansion, he builds a CC and attach a Nuke Silo to it and starts making ghosts, ready for nuking. A little bit later he decides to attach a Nuke Silo to his natural expansion CC as well.

In a last attempt to save himself, BW-Sux loads a shuttle with 1 DT and sends it to Doom-'s main (the other DTs died because of containment force). He manages to destroy the ComSat Station but Doom- sends a SV since he doesn't have any other means of detection. Before dying in a blaze of glory, the DT was able to destroy 1 supply depot 1 comsat 1 SCV and 1 Vulture. Both players take a moment of silence in his honor...

After destroying the choke defence with a well placed nuke, Doom- keeps attempting to nuke the base, 2 of these attempts fail due to a lone observer :). It is now the end, as Doom-'s Ghost enjoys a well-earned vacation after nuking BW-Sux's base 8-or-so times. GG's are exchanged, as both parties quit.

The End.

Let the nuking begin!!

Argh... i could have watched  a whole The Simpsons 'episode' during this game!
I'm not even sure BW-Sux had a chance :(

I hope u liked it =)
