Alright, this is my 3rd stab at a battle report. Yes, my 2nd was ...unsattisfactory...to say the least, but I will make up for it in
THE BATTLE OF THE CHOBO GENERALS
THE PREGAME...
The pregame was underway, with me and Rommel_1942 already waiting for someone to join.The game name was"2v2 Blood lust", and the map was *blech* Lost Temple.After we talked about such things as zerg ownage and how micro owns serious ass, 2 GOSU players join. To save me and my partner's lives, I'm going to call them"Bob" and "Joe"(actually, I can't remember they're names...). So "bob" and "joe" start talking to me and rommel while we strategize.Okay, enough talk, let's kill. 5...4...3...2...1...game start.
The battle begins
The game begins,and me and rommel ally up. "Joe" and "Bob" random to brown toss and blue protoss, while I pick red toss and my partner randoms to green zerg. Rommel quickly sends an overlord to scout the area, while I start climbing the perverbial tech tree. After I build a pylon,probe,forge,and gateway, I send my zealot to scout. Low and behold, we find both joe and bob. My zealot dies bravely fighting a cannon, and Rommel's zerglings die to more zealots.
After about 5 mins, my base looks something like this:
I now have 6 cannons, 5 zealots,and about 23 probes. I'm quickly running out of mins, so I expand to the 5 o'clock base. Meanwhile, Rommel harasses both joe and bob with his zerglings. This is his tactic through the whole game,basically. He uses some mutas, but who cares about him?j/k. I was monitoring MY base, not his.
Anyway, Rommel sends his mutas to scout,and...SUCCESS! He finds joe's 11 o'clock expansion,which soon dies to glave wurms galore. Feeling rather cocky now, Rommel sends his mutas at the main base, only to die to cannons.
Now for a status check. This is rommel's base:
impressive,huh? Those mutas are constantly being built.
The Caped crapholes attack
So while I'm distracted by an ursadon(damn cute bears...) I hear the dreaded words YOUR BASE IS UNDER ATTACK.NOOO!!! Now what?!?!? This ...interesting...conversation takes place...
joe:"haha"
me:"WTF??!?!?!"
joe:"Like my DT's?"
me:"You stupid bastard! That's cheap"
joe:"^^"
THAT CHOBO BASTARD! HE'S SENDING IN DT'S!NOOO!
The Fluffy F*ckers
We both watch in horror as the psychic badasses known as protoss annihilate drone after drone. Sensing the end, I send what forces I have left to help. We manage to kill some attackers, but they just keep coming.
After no more than 5 mins of the original attack, we realize we are doomed, and admit defeat. We simply watch in horror as our beloved zerg and toss colonies fall to forces of protoss. This is the last image I see before the end...
The end of it all
That's right.Nothing. Game over.Well, you can't win em all...
The results...
Lessons learned
1.Protoss own serious ass
2. Dark Templars piss me off
3. Never harass with zergligs
4. Remember player's names...
Oh, by the way, if you happen to play Lost temple, one word. EXPAND. I learned the hard way...
