Ok, so maybe this isn't all spam. I actually decided to do a... Battle Report.

The room is suddenly filled with silence.
Not a single soul moves.
They get ready for a really lame BR.

Players: Leggionare VS |x|Tactics...
Lameness: Priceless

Leggionare spawned protoss at 12:00 as red, while |x|tactics... got protoss as well as yellow at 8:00. Opening builds were standard.

Leggionare
8 pylon - 10 gateway - 12 assimilator - 16 scout - 16 cybernetics core - 17 pylon

|x|tactics...
8 pylon - 11 gateway - 13 pylon = 16 zealot - 16 scout - 17 assimilator

After their initial builds, Tactics got his cyber core, then another gateway and a few dragoons. Meanwhile, Leggionare warps in his robotics facility, and finally gets a few goons out there. Once the robotics facility is finished, he starts working on a shuttle and starts getting his robotics support bay. Around when the shuttle is halfway done, the robotics support bay is finished, so Leggionare pays up for the shuttle speed upgrade, and adds a reaver to the unit queque of the robotics facility. He also starts warping in an observatory. On the other hand, Tactics is aggressively pumping out dragoons from two gateways, and is almost done with his range upgrade for them. He pulls three dragoons back to his mineral line for defense. While this may seem insignificant, Leggionares build seems to hint its significance. Tactics now has a robotics facility in the works. Once that finishes, an observatory begins. Six minutes and forty-eight seconds into the game, he sends 8 dragoons, and 3 zealots to Leggionare's main. Three dragoons follow them shortly after the first group leaves. Luckily, an observer from Leggionare comes up and spots the opposing force en route. He loads up a reaver and a dragoon into a shuttle, and starts the dragoon range upgrade.

Tactics goes up to check Leggionare's natural, and finds nothing. Due to him having the range upgrade, he shoots up the hill and gets some free shots on a goon that's on hold position up the hill, and after a skirmish pulls his forces to the left side of Leggionare's base.
the world banks greed and lies digs graves in 3rd world lands and fills them with the remains of exploited workers
Shortly after pulling them over to the left, everyone's sent home. Tactics now starts another shuttle, as well as grabs his natural. He notices with an observer that Leggionare has started a pylon and some cannons on the hill above his natural. Well, we can't let this happen, can we? and displaced native peoples, and destroyed ecosystems under the guise of progress, relief and tech assistance Now Leggionare starts up the 11:00 island. Once that's done, he executes a Maynard Transfer to that exapansion. Right now, Tactics has a military consisting of 24 goons, one shuttle, and three observers, while on the other hand Leggionare has twelve goons, two reavers, one shuttle and two observers. Tactics has two forgers, which are doing armor (armor, not shields) and weapons, and his current upgrades are 0/0/0, and Leggionare has one forge doing weapons, current upgrade levels 0/0/0. Tactics takes two dragoons, and loads them into a shuttle, then drops them on the island, so Leggionare retaliates by sending over a reaver and a dragoon. As soon as they come, Tactics moves back to the shuttle and drops onto the low ground on the island. It goes back and forth, if the reaver and goon go down, Tactics goes back up. Finally, it ends with the two goons going back home when two more of Leggionares dragoons come. Back home, Tactics has warped in a Citadel of Adun and a Stargate. Next Tactics starts to warp in at his mineral only. Leggionare finishes a Citadel of Adun at almost the exact same time that Tactics Citadel finishes.

The Big Bang

First off, let's get a minimap update.

sitting in what was designated as the 'cooperation zone' by Seattle Police Seargent Richard Goldstein, they sat heads bowed

You'll notice that yellow clot in the middle is a force Tactics sent to the center, seemingly plotting an attack. It'slistening as the policeman fired their shots of pepper spray, one eye at a time composed of exactly 27 goons, 16 zealots, and 4 high templar.into the eyes of their passive brothers and sisters. whore like police playing judge, jury and executioner for their pimp like bosses in the world bank and the w.t.o Right before the attack, Tactics goes to grab the 6:00 main. The red clot is Leggionares mixed force of dragoons, zealots, high templar and dark templar. Seconds before opening blows are exchanged, he grabs the 3:00 mineral only. The opening blows were psi storms exchanged from each side. A bloody battle pursues, with heavy casualties on both sides. Then Leggionare, seeing how hopeless he was with his forces there, pulled back to his natural/ramp, and Tactics pursues. However, since Tactics lost his observer, a Dark Templar comes and starts ripping him apart. He pulls back, gets another observer, and comes back quickly. During the chaos, Tactics grabs the 6:00 mineral-only expansion. Leggionare braces, and another battle happens. It results with Leggionare being left with almost nothing, and Tactics with very little.

Tactics now has his high templars energy exhausted, so he merges them into an archon. He doesn't forget about the 3:00 expansion spotted by an observer, and goes for it, although he fails. Extremely quickly he gets another group of goons out, and goes to 12:00 AGAIN. He doesn't want to let Leggionare recover. He takes out Leggionares natural, but the forces up on the cliff clean up when he approaches the cliff. Now with Leggionare profiting from two island expansions, and 3:00, he has an upper hand. However, knowing Tactics has expansions as well, he knows he cannot let that be. He morphs two archons, and goes in for 6:00 with a group of zealots and six dragoons with the archons. Not much to say, except he tore through there, with very little resistance. Result?

Ladies and gentlemen, Tactics has left the game.

Lessons Learned: - Although it looked like Tactics had the cat in the bag, it wasn't so. Many people would leave in Leggionares position, but he didn't, and he emerged victorious.
- Raters are pretty
- Give RubiksCube rating power gogogogo
