Preface

This, as some of you would know, is my 4th battlereport.
I've lost my Brood War CD and recently got Quake 3 Arena, which explains my disappearance my b.net for the last month or so. Finally, after finding my BW cd, i decided to log onto b.net,and asked if anyone would like to be in a battlereport. 2 players, Mad_Diamond00 and @Matrix@@ agreed to play.

Note: This BR contains 12 pics, including 3 gifs and a lot of collages. Please, I'm begging you here, watch some tv while your comp loads this. It will make everying so much better. You know how much a DarKnight BR depends on pics. Read the alt-text ppl.

Note to the raters: Only read this if your in a generous rating mood. If not, please click the little x on the topright of your screen and come back when you're feeling generous. If this BR ends up after a King-Lewis, Mark4, nobody, etc. BR, please pretend you never read the aforementioned authors br. Thank you for your time. *hint +10 for no spelling errors, or nearly none hint hint wink nudge* I'm also slightly younger than WarLeaderJustin...Give me ten! Read the first few alt-texts.

Also, has anyone noticed that I can't seem to get non-famous people to be in my BRs? Note: Last BR had Kane- and CynicalMagician. Even during this BR, when I think i have 2 nobody's, matrix comes and tells me he is actually
X'ds~Matrix! Yeah, i don't know X'ds~Matrix either but anyone with a X'ds before his name deserves to be fawned over (i think).

The Game

The lings ran past the zealot on the ramp, saw it was only one zealot, and attacked it. The zealot fell faster than a drunken 90 year old woman with a broken hip. Then, Matrix orders his zealots to attack the probes. Then Mad makes his move by conceding.

Ok, you caught me. He didn't concede, and by attacking with his probes and newly warped zeals, saves himself. He is in bad shape, with only 3 probes.

Let's have a minimap update:

Matrix has just morphed 2 sunkens at his natural. A probe, probably sent to scout, wandered into the deadly sunkens, and blew up. Problem=only 2 probes now...Solution=Build More! After that amazing bit of advice, Matrix adds an evo chamber and extractor to his list of buildings. He continues building lings.

Mad , on the other hand, has built *drumroll* a pylon! Yes, that's right, not a pylong, a pylon! OMFG. It's amazing!

Matrix morphes a hydra den, when....an entire ZEALOT arrives at his natural. The zealot was sent for scouting purposes (this astonishing discovery was deducted by the fact that it didn't attack and went straight for the main, ignoring the sunkens). The sunkens destroyed the warrior from aiur before he made it to the ramp.

Mad adds a 3rd gate and is massing zealots.

Matrix , adds a spore colony at his natural, probably in case Mad decides to make dts. He also morphs another hatch at his main. He morphes his main hatch into a lair. Hmmmm, lair & hydra den, i wonder what could he be going for. Could it be lurkers? I dunno =].

Bob: Hmmmm, whenever I had a hydra den and lair, I usually went for the ol' defiler & ultra combo.

LurkerDropper: Uh...k bob. I'd say he's going for Lurks, maybe a Lurker drop, yipee!

Mad quickly adds a cybernetics core, and now...sends four zealots, the 4 brothers of the zealot that died to the sunkens.

Brother Fred: We shall avenge our brother!

Brother K()Ooli(): Word.

Brother Stuck-Up: hmmmmph!

Brother Scaredy-Cat: *psssssss* Guys, I just wet myself again.

Brother Fred: Oh no, not again.

Brother K()Ooli(): Waasaaa wit u? U wacked or somethin'? 'tsup with dat shit?

Brother Stuck-Up: hmmmmph!

At this point, Matrix 's lair finishes. He then turns his attention to the 4 brothers. He sends some hydras and lings to deal with the threat, i mean little nuisance. The zealots kill a sunken and some of the zerg troops. Matrix quickly morphes another sunken, but his forces already repelled the protoss forces.

Mad begins making dead ppl aka Dragoons, with the odd zealot. He also decides to go on a shopping spree, adding a citadel of adun, robotics facility, forge, and templar archives in quick sucession. If he can get to the heart of all imbalance, psi storm, maybe he can pull this one off. He also decides to exp at his natural.

Matrix has some lurkers, and exps at his natural. Ohh boy, I have 7 pics depicting the next part of the game. Ok, Matrix decides to attack Mad with his lurkers, hydra, ling combo.

The Big ol' line of death meets the protoss. The lurkers, in the front of the line, burrow, and force the protoss forces back. The burrow, unburrow, move, attack...goes on for a bit, destroying anything they come across. Mad , in desperation, warps in an observatory.

Matrix sends in his hydras and lings. I don't know whether he did this on purpose or not, but he sent his hydras and lings behind his lurks. The dragoons and zeals saw the hydras and lings, and went straight to the zerg forces to to battle. Unfortunately, they go straight into the burrowed lurks in front of the hydras and lings, and most of them die.

Mad , seeing his mistake, pulls his forces back. The situation looks grim for him. but..

His observatory finished! He quickly puts some observers into production. His forces can't do anything but retreat, and let his base crumble from unknown assasins.

Matrix puts his forces at the peon line, making sure none escape. He then morphs a few hydras into lurkers, right in Mad 's base!

Mad finally gets his observor out, but Matrix 's lurkers already morphed. He only has a few dragoons, and sends them into battle against 8 (!) lurkers. He doesn't do anything but set a record for fastest goon soup.


Matrix sends some lings to reinforce his lurkers. After they mop up most of his main, the zerglings decide to celebrate.
Well, I guess that's the game. Ok, here are the apologies.

1.sorry I couldn't make the frame a bit smaller

2.sorry I don't have sexy women, but I'm about WarLeaderJustin's age so...

3.WarLeaderJustin (just so he can give me 100% =])

4.Maybe the text is a little hard to read, i apologize

Well, I worked very hard on this BR and I hope you will rate it fairly. Thanks. Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm, I need to use up some space b4 I put the stats. A little more....ok done.
