"I'd like you to know that if I had saved even one probe from the death of my last mineral only nexus (after having my probes ensnared and then getting to fight cracklings with them) I was planning on putting "The Imperial March" by John Williams on the stereo and microing the robotic little bastard to victory"

| 3:1 comp turning bad... | | | Author: | | | IP: | XXXX | | Date: | 05/11/99 01:05 | | Game Type: | Starcraft | | Labels: | Starcraft(1), Text Only(1) | | Report Rating: , # of Ratings: 1, Max: 4, Min: 4
Lifetime Rating for -DarkZeaiot-: 4.5000 |  | Before the report I would like to say I play 3:1 BloodBath's all the time. I do like 1:1 but not my fav. Anyway onto the story.
Me- Bottom right
Friend (will be called DZ)-Bottom left
and 3rd guy (will be called KR)- Upper right
Everyone start out about the same, I'm the Zerg, DZ terran, and KR terran, comp 'toss. I got a quick SP on my 7th drone. DZ had rax on 6th, 9th for KR. I never like to rush with just the norm of 6 zerglings so I got pretty built on minerals, started gas on my 9th drone, OL right before the gas. DZ had 2 bunks filled and KR was getting comp rushed by Zealot Rush. We had to save his @$$ and he says "I could've saved myself" when he had nothing but 8 SCV's. I agreed with him to save pointless arguments for later. Anyway I had, Lair, Queen Nest coming when comp sent another small wave of Zealots and a probe to try to get more minerals. I said no and smacked them out with about 20-30 zerglings. DZ now had his Starport coming and KR got rebuilt nicely with nothing but marine filled bunks and a tank or two. As I started my Spire and Hive, DZ got attacked waved by Zealots and Dragoons. He held out not losing much but KR said "Your not looking too good there DZ". They had a little quarrel between themselves with it ending in the comp attacking KR and him getting smacked around by Zeals and Drags.
This is where it gets interesting. Once my Hive and Spire are done I remember to get my 2nd and 3rd hatcheries near expansions. As I'm doing this comp sends another litle raid of Zeals, Drags, and a templar or two which are immediately killed off by DZ's tanks which he has positioned near middle. I've upgraded the Adrenal Gland for Zerglings and send a raid of about 30 Zerglings when KR also decides to join the attack. He sets up tanks and what he says "accidentally" kills most of my Zerglings. So I message DZ and tell him "This guy is pissin me off bad. I'm about ready to kill him myself"
Then DZ offers me up an extremely nice idea to me. He tells me to pack all my Zerglings into OL's, make scourges, and kick the crap outta KR. So we talk and get KR to attack comp. I send Zergling help and the same "accident" occurs. I decide my plan is now going into full effect. I load up the 80 Zerglings I had into my OL's and rally the scourges. DZ is nuking the comp when KR "accidentally" kills his ghost. I tell DZ I've had enough. I send my OL's into his base and tell KR that I'm gonna do a Zergling drop into comp base. He fell for it hook line and sinker. KR sends his force of marines, medics, and Fbats. DZ sends BC's, Wraiths, and tanks. I sent my Zerglings into KR's base. While KR's forces are getting slaughtered by comp DT's, he yells at me "Um, Dark what are you doing?" I said I accidentally unloaded. When DZ brought the sci vessels over to detect the DT's, KR's forces were practically gone. KR started sending the marines he had out of his bunks while DZ's BC's and Wraiths were causing hell among the comp. I unallie and slaughter KR. KR leaves the game and DZ finishes off comp.
After game, KR found me and says"What was that for?". I told him it was payback for earlier. |
