This is the most intense game I had on Battle.net and I would like to share it with you.


The Start

The map was an edit of the Challenger map. I was teal zerg (southeast), Cracker was grey protoss (south-central),and Crazy was brown terran (north-central).

 My build List:

1- Extractor

2- Spawning pool

3- Evolution Chamber

4- Hydralisk Den

 

Militaristic Beginning
The host said nr20 (No Rush for 20 min) but I had different intentions. After I started building up my zergling force I noticed that I needed to scout, but I did not have any spare drones so I gathered 6 zerglings and started to scout. Then I found what I was looking for rather quickly. A small force of zealots was gathering, but I knew I didn't have the amount of zerglings needed to take down that number of zealots (4), so I did the second best thing. I came close enough for Crackers zealots to start chasing my zerglings, and they started Chasing Amy, oops I mean chasing zerglings. I led them to my force of zerglings and hydra's. Easy rape for me.

 

Preparation For The Worst... And Proof that Cracker is a Retard...
After the easy win I had grabbed I began building lots of defensive buildings (sunken and spore colonies) just in case an attack came. I had an easy choke point to manage. I started to gather up another force of zergling\hydra force to begin another attack run. When I arrived to Crackers ramp to his base I saw 2 zealots, but behind him was a large number of photon cannons. I knew that his zealots where in range of the photon cannons which meant that if I attacked him now my zergling force would be "assimilated". So again I lured them to follow me to my base, and guess what, he fell for it. (OMG WHAT A RETARD)

 

Economic Raid and Base Attack
"Hmmm" I thought to myself, "It's going to be a pain in the ass to fight my way through his ramp." So I gathered up a force 6 mutalisks to make an economic raid, which might cripple him. I was going to do an attack from the southwest position, but it all depended on where his cannons were placed. I started up my attack run but suddenly it got bashed against the rocks when 2 photon cannons ripped apart one mutalisk. I quickly retreated to my main army. Which was gearing up for an attack. When my attack started I quickly tried take care of the ground troops Cracker had, but the photon cannons where making life miserable for me. My ground force was completely destroyed, but some mutlaisks remained alive and avenged the death of my army by killing his 3 stupid zealots. Sadly only 1 mutlaisk survived survived to fight another day.

 

Build up, Tech up, F**k up
Regrouped in my base and started to tech up. I got myself a healthy number of zerglings, multalisks, hydralisks, and ultralisks. I built more defenses for a "Just In Case" scenario, then I prepared for another attack, which I hoped, would be the last. When my whole army marched onto his ramp, his zealots and photon cannons didn't stand a chance to my Ultras and zerglings. And then an unexpected thing walked into my life. 3 Carriers started to unload interceptors, which my ground troops were no match for. Only 1 zergling survived the battle.

 

Situation Home
During the end of the battle when I saw the carriers I quickly built enough scourges to take out his carriers. I also built a large number of defensive stations to protect me from any threat that comes my way. They always say that during battle the sneakiest stuff happens in your base.

 

Operation Carrier Watch
After I built a large number of scourges I preceded to take out those carriers. I hoped to lure them using one zergling attacking a pylon. I did but no carriers to be seen, accept for this transparent object I saw which could only mean one thing: CLOAKING! I quickly retreated my scourges before he had a chance to kill them. Cracker quickly took advantage of my unprepared ness and launched a full out carrier attack (which were cloaked by an arbiter). When he got close to my overlord I unleashed my scourges upon the helpless carriers. Only 1 arbiter and 1 carrier remained, which ran away.

Small Battle With Big Results
After the remains of the protoss air force ran away I used m 2 zergling and 2 hydralisks to make a small battle in his base, which would have disrupted operations there. It turned out to be a hell of a lot more. My zerglings started going after the probes while I told my hydra to attack the carrier that was just floating in the air. I took ½ of its health away when it cloaked. I then went after the arbiter that cloaked it and destroyed it easily, and then I finished the job and took care of that carrier. Then they all got killed by interceptors and something else.

 

The Terran Threat and The Unholy Alliance
That something else was cloaked interceptors, but they weren't attacking the protoss, which meant they were allied. I now had to deal with 2 enemies allied together. I didn't know where Crazy (terran) was so I sent one scourge to the northeast position where I saw his base with no defense watsoever.1 marine and 3 ghosts tried to make an attack on my base but they failed. I built up a large number of mutalisks to get some revenge. "Time To Kick Ass And Chew Bubble Gum... I'm All Out Of Gum."

 

A Lesson In Defense
As my mutalisks entered Crazy`s base nothing was in the way to stop me. I quickly killed every SCV there was then I tried to destroy the command center. Then a number of goliaths attacked my mutalisks, but they were no match for my mutalisks. Then 4 carriers came and spoiled the day (again).

 


Mid-Game Recap
Well this was an interesting game for me because I am playing a 2vs1. I guess I'm that powerful.

Another Fruitless Attack(s)
I gathered up a force of 6 zerglings and 3 hydralisks and thought that my raid on Crazys base had diverted those cloaked wraithies. I was wrong and another Fruitless Attack occurred. = (

Another Fruitless attack happened 1 minute later but not by me. 3 marines started attacking my ultraist and they paid for it. = )

 

A Lesson In Defense Part II
I was hoping to destroy this base that he had, but last time he had 3 carriers and lots of goliaths protecting it. I gathered 6 mutlaisks 8 scourges and 1 overlord and attacked his base. Then the carriers appeared, so I took some scourges and attacked. I deeply underestimated the number of them I needed. I took out 1 carrier but then the goliaths charged in. After my raiding party got destroyed (again) I noticed that a couple of Battle Cruisers flew in.

 

Terran ... Nukes
I started gathering up a land force to destroy the protoss base once and for all but 8 marines charged in and died. 5 seconds after that a girlie voice said nuke launch detected. I saw the red dot pointed on my army, so I just moved them out of the way. The nuke detonated with no harm caused to me, and that proves that the Terran is an idiot also.

 

Final Attack on Protoss
After I finished laughing on how stupid he was, I Built up a force of zerg/overlord/hydra/ultra/mutalisks to take out the protoss base. I started attacking and then the Wraithies arrived. I managed to kill a few but I underestimated the number of Wraithies he had. My force got killed but immediately after that I built 8 or so mutalisks and killed off those filthy wraithies. After that I started tearing down the protoss base, until the BCs came in once again.

 

Taking Care of the BC`s and another foolish Nuke Attack and other dumbass mistakes by the other team
As the battle was occurring, the foolish terran launched another nuke attack that killed a total of 6 zerglings!!!! After that was done I built a large number of scourges to take care of the BC`s, Only 1 remained. Then a cloaked ghost attacked my mutas and I killed him as soon as my overlord was there. 1 minute later that 1 battle cruiser that survived made a foolish attack, which I consider SUICIDE.

 

Destruction of The Protoss base and another Nuke
After that BC was destroyed I sent 8 zerglings in the protoss base and guess what happens (it got destroyed). Another nuke alert appeared and my forces didn't get a scratch. All I saw was a ghost's blood.

 

Endgame
I gathered up another raiding party to attack the terran base again but sadly a mass of BC`s and Carriers spoiled everything... I asked them if we could all ally, but no; they started to say we kicked your ass. I challenged anyone of them to a 1vs1 but by then I was eliminated.


Lessons Learned
1- Don't Smoke Crack
2- never Underestimate someone, even if he is a n00b
3- it's hard to fight if it's a 2vs1
4- Don't smoke crack

 

This is the most intense game I had on B.net. I noticed after the game that I was attacking his expansion, not his main.I do not have much time to really do anything very complex these days because of school. Sorry but there is not going to be an EE report for a while because im going to be busy playing SC =D
Check out the replay!!!!
