Please tell me if
you like this BR or not. If you like it, I will write more of these. If
you don't, I will quit spamming. I plan on doing a series of these such
BRs.
BW-sux
tries to get into Battle.Net clans.
Episode
1
The
HEad HUnters
This BR starts as most
of my other clan joining BRs will. I was in Channel Clan Recruitment, reading
through spam (you go to that channel and read the bad spam), and I came
across a clan that said they teach newbies how to play real maps, in other
words no BGH here. So I steered myself to their channel, where I played
against a guy named |{iL|eR, or something like that, 1vs1. Killer
was not a part of this Head Hunter Clan. Anyway, a title will be below
the next line (I had to end the paragraph somehow).
Game
1
|{iL|eR[DK]
vs.
BW-sux
This game (on Temple)
started with me drawing Zerg at 6:00 and Killer
started at 9:00, chosing Zerg. Knowing this, I decided to go mutas, doing
the 10/9 extractor trick, then getting a hatch at my main, gas, pool, hatch
at natural, lair upgrade, spire. After hatching 6 mutas (no gas) and sending
them to his main to rape some of his drones, Killer
lured my mutas out of his peon lines and into... his 9 mutas, which are
macroed and own my mutas pretty hard. Killer then moves his mutas down
to my undefended base and kills me. GGs are exchanged, and we leave the
game.
Chatcraft
and
Waiting
Now we chat about what
owns what and other shit (sound familiar?), and we sit aroud for a tester
to come. After 15 minutes of waiting I decide to go back to Nohunters.
Well, no one I know was in nohunters at the time, so I went back to the
clan's channel to find the tester. So i joined the test game, along with
3 other people.
Game
2
Me
vs.
Someone
vs.
Someone
else
(I forgot their
names.)
This Free-For-All
test was on a map I have started, called Tribes.
This map has 8 starting points, evenly spaced, with mineral-only naturals
for each start, going away of the center of the map. There are also expansions
with gas near the center of the map and on top of the plateaus that surround
each start.
Now that I have explained
the map to you, the reader, we can get to some real fighting. My two combatants
each chose zerg, and I randomed and spawned zerg at the 1:30 start. My
enemies started at the 12:00 and at 7:30. Since I knew everyone else's
races, I decided to to what was expected in a ZvZ, go mutas. My build consisted
of 9 hatch, then gas. However, it was promptly interrupted by 4 lings at
a very early time in the game. Suspecting my 12:00 opponent's build order
was 4 pool lings, I gave him the appropriate flame that comes with a 4
pool, while fighting 4 lings at a time with my many drones. Lings kept
coming, while my drones died quick. At that point, I conceded and my enemies
then allied with me. The 7:30 player has expanded twice during my demise,
and had a sizeable force of lings and hydras ready to shed some blood.
The 12:00 6 pooler, as i had learned (we will refer to him as 6-pooler
from now on), had just started on gas, had very few lings, and a sunken
colony at his choke. Seeing the 7:30 zerg player mass his force outside
6-pooler's choke was a relief for me, as I then knew he was not gonna win.
Mr. 7:30's swarm of lings and hydras tore right through 6-poolers main,
and 6-pooler conceded. 6-pooler then decided to say this felt like a 2vs1
to him, he had to "crush" (6-pool) me and then defend from Mr. 7:30, which
he did a bad job of. This pissed me off. The tester then said Mr. 7:30
was in the clan (no surprise) and 6-pooler had made it, too (WTF???). This
only pissed me off some more. So I flame 6-pooler some more, telling him
that 4-6 pools = BAD MANNER!!! Oblivously, he didn't know what SC manners
were, as I forgot to tell you he had not scouted me until the 4 lings came
(I suspected hacking).
As for me, the tester
told me I needed more testing (probably wanted to see what I could really
do).
Lessons Learned Here:
6 pool rushing = bad manner.
Hacking = bad manner
The
Passing
of
5
Hours
Well, as the title
implies, 5 hours passed before I got to get tested again. This time against
Killer[DK], mentioned earlier in this report, and a clanmate of his, Yank[DK],
whose name is incomplete because it also consisted of some random numbers.
Anyway the next game is through the eyes of me, which you will learn, is
very limited.
Game
3
BW-sux
vs
Killer
vs
Yank
This game was also played
on Tribes. I started at 12:00 with chosen protoss ,Yank
started at 3:00 with terran, and, well, I
don't know where Killer started, but he got zerg. I went the regular protoss
build order, going 7 pylon, gate, gate, pylon, gas, cy core and then teched
to templars. As I was expanding to 5:00 main, killer walks 4 lurkers into
my main and tears it right up, because I didn't have any sort of detection.
After my main falls, I started teching to observers in my new expansion,
as well as building cannons like a whore. After building up to observers
and getting a few gates, I expand to the 5:30 expansion on top of the plateau.
After I cannon the
5:30 expansion and put a stargate on top of it, my expansion on the lower
ground comes under attack by about 12 hydras. Because i hadn't exactly
been concentrating on unit production, I let it go to the hydras, and at
that time I expanded to the plateau south and above Yank.
After about 15 more minutes of powering, Killer finds my 5:30 expansion
and drops his 12 hydras on it. The hydras win, but only a few remain after
the attack. After this, I guess Killer started concentrating on Yank,
who, as I learned much later in the game, he had never expanded. So after
slowly powering and taking the 11:30 expansion on top of the plateau, my
3:30 expansion came under attack by a few guardians, which I know about
because Killer was attacking a few missle turrets below the cliff.
These guardians were
dispached by a few corsairs I had built while I was powering. After killing
the guardians and holding off another hydra drop with psi storms, DTs,
and zealots, Killer showed his intention of allying with me. So I did,
and we left the game.
Well, I don't think
you could fit 1 hour and 30 minutes of gaming into 3 paragraphs, but as
I said before I started writing about this game, my vision was extremely
limited.
I wen back into
the clan's channel after the game, just to see if the clan would let me
in. Well, after about another 15 minutes of spamming "Am I in yet?" they
finally decide to let me in on a few conditions, as they said I would be
"on probation". They basically said I have to play them a lot and get better.
So yes, they let me in. And on that, I left the channel and went to nohunters.
Well, I hope you
liked it. It was fun to make, and to play these games. I hope I can make
more of these reports where the games come out like this. Hell, there might
be a few on BGH, where I can report really lame games.
Goodbye, and enjoy
more reports.
