Lifetime Rating for Black label: 5.1429 |  | Hi everyone! I'm about to make my third br on this site. First sucked, second was about a game nobody knew. This br has some crappy pictures but that was because I didn't feel make them better. But anyway here we go.
The map was ofcourse Lost Temple and the players were MidnightSunriseSunrise and Xel'Naga(FS)(FS)(FS). I know MidnightSunrise from school and I know Xel'Naga(FS)(FS) from b.net. MidnightSunrise chose Protoss and received them at the 3 o'clock main while Xel'Naga(FS)(FS) chose Zerg and morphed his Hatchery at the 12 o'clock main.
This is the build order:
Xel'Naga(FS)(FS) = Spawning Pool, Creep Colony, Extractor, Creep Colony, Lair, Spire.
MidnightSunrise = Pylon, Assimilator, Gateway, Forge, Pylon, Cybernetics core, Citadel of Adun, Templars Archive.
The first blood hit the ground when Xel'Naga(FS)(FS) scouted with 2 Zerglings. They managed to damage a Pylon but were killed by 2 warped in Cannons. It was quiet for some time while both players teched further. Their strategy was simple: Xel'Naga(FS)(FS) went mucho Mutalisks and MidnightSunrise was going to use a lot of High Templars.
Then MidnightSunrise did something stupid. He hadn't scouted yet but he wanted to expand. So he expanded at the 12 o'clock natural (at the main of Xel'Naga(FS)(FS)) without scouting the main. Needless to say it was killed by Mutalisks in no time.
MidnightSunrise dropped 2 times, but at the moment the Reavers hit the ground they were killed in less then 2 seconds by overwhelming Mutalisks. In retaliation for the attempt, Xel'Naga(FS)(FS) attacks with Zerglings and Mutalisks. The Mutalisks flew to the Peon line and managed to kill all but 2 Probes. The Zerglings were killed by the Photon Cannons while Storm took care of the Zerg flyers.
At this time both players expand. MidnightSunrise expands at the bottom right island and at the natural of the 6 o'clock location while Xel'Naga(FS)(FS) expands at his natural and the 9 o'clock main. MidnightSunrise has built Stargates at his 3 bases and has a control group of Scouts. He makes his move and attacks Xel'Naga(FS)(FS)'s main. He managed to kill some Mutalisks but they were just to many of them.
In retaliation, Xel'Naga(FS)(FS) attacks the expansion at the 6 o'clock natural and managed to kill it with his Mutalisks. MidnightSunrise made one last attempt to save his expansions with 4 Scouts and 6 Scout Hallucinations but it was in vain. Xel'Naga(FS)(FS) continues to attack and flew to the island. Storm causes heavy casualties but again, there were too much Mutalisks and the island was overrun.
MidnightSunrise finally expands at his natural but Xel'Naga(FS)(FS) keeps up the pressure with his groups of fully upgraded Mutalisks. The High Templars keep causing heavy casualties but still there is no more hope for MidnightSunrise and his main is soon overrun by Mutalisks and he concedes the game.
