....Yes I, BlueRiBBon, am back again with another interracial scat porn-- errr.... Brood War battlereport!
....I'll cut to the chase right after player introduction's, and Map explanation instead of wasting everyone's time with stupid comment's about how I am a Nigger, and shit. This report is on a game between "ArroZ[cF]" also known as "G()|)|y^rice-", and "uT)Doomer" also known as "Doomer[FD]". They will face off on a new map created this year for WCG named "Dahlia of Garden's" that has a lot of comparable factors to the almighty, "The Lost Temple."
....The map, Dahlia of Garden's is a newer map to the world of StarCraft. I'd have to say if anything, it favors Terran over the other races mostly because of the natural placement. The third's are inside of your main down a ramp, but still surrounded by high dirt. The Natural's however are in each corner of the map, and are a significant distance from your Main's ramp, and choke point. For this the mobility of the Terran is increased, creating a tend for it to favor Terran. Not that it cheats the Zerg or Protoss, but they might have a harder time fast expoing to their natural, but it is much easier to take their third.
The Players
.... These two have been friends for awhile, and Rice was in [FD] with Doomer at one time. However they are different people, and quite far away from one another.
....G()|)|y^Rice-, or ArroZ[cF] is another one of my friends IRL. He oped to not give me a picture because he is a homosexual faggot : [. We went to the same school together until just last year when I moved (-_-).We both live in Pennsylvania, U.S.A. We actually became friends through playing this game with each other. Sounds kinky eh? Well, not really... Rice has been better than me at StarCraft for... well, ever. I've beaten him about 10-15 times in my LIFE, and we have played countless games. When I used to be half-decent I schooled him a few times, but nothing major (just hanging on by the skin of my teeth.) He went to WCG Syracuse, New York, up to Semi's when he lost, but still tied second with two others overall. I'll refer to him as Rice-. He plays the race of Zerg, and has buttsex with Giraffe's.
 ....uT)Doomer, or Doomer[FD] is from Puerto Rico. He is a Terran freak. He learned most of what he knows from Slayers_`Boxer` replays. He recently won WCG Puerto Rico, and is scheduled to play in the Finals at Seoul, South Korea, October 10th. His Favorite map is Dahila. He is better with Micro than Macro, and he plans on playing StarCraft for two more years. He will be referred to as Doomer. He likes to watch Rice- have buttsex with Giraffe's.
.... In this game Doomer chose Terran, meanwhile Rice- chose Zerg. Rice- got the base at six o'clock. Doomer on the other hand, got the base at three o'clock. They both then began to plan their strategies.
....Rice- started off his tech with a Spawning pool. He followed with a Hatchery, and followed that with another Hatchery at his Natural.
....Doomer did the normal two Barracks, into Marines, and Medics. He eventually noticed Rice-'s tech, and went for three Barracks, with +1 Armor.
.... Before any of this occurred however, Rice- made the first move (which is rare for Rice- because he is a pussy :D). Rice- sent a party of six-eight lings on a mission to wreak havoc on the Terran Main. When they arrived they were greeted by SCV's. They prevailed until they started to fight marines. They were able to pick off four SCV's, and two Marines, but were only two remaining when they finished.
.... The last two Zerglings thought they could run up and pick off working SCV's, but were sorely mistaken when one SCV alone, killed both of them :P. Soon after the ling rush was defeated, Doomer sent out a SCV to scout. By this time Rice- had started a hatchery at his natural, a hatchery on his cliff, and a Spire being made in the middle of his base.
....Doomer moved his SCV into the Zerg Natural just as the hatchery was finishing. He moved his SCV then, up the cliff of Rice-'s Main, and just before his poor little explorer named Jose' Rodriguez Martinez died, he gave Doomer the necessary scouting needed, and showed off Rice-'s Spire.
....By now Doomer has stockpiled quite a large force of Marine/Medic. He knows that his chance of ending the game quick rely heavily upon him taking out that Natural Hatchery. However, Rice- has also acquired a large force. He has made Muta/Ling out the butt for the past few minutes, and now has them located inbetween his Natural, and his Main. Doomer begins to move out after hotkeying his main force. He scans as he moves for fear of his opponent changing tech to Lurker on him. Little does he know, but Rice- already has a Hydralisk Den, and his researching Lurker Aspect. Doomer moves his men to just across the bridges outside of the Six main. At this point Rice- notices, and moves his entire force into the back of his main to avoid being scanned, and noticed. The Terran commander, moving as fast a Mexican running from the border guards, moved his men to the natural. He sent his men into back as soon as possible. They had just destroyed a Sunken Colony, when the horde of Muta/Ling came out of the back of the natural. The Marine/Medic's held their own but took significant loses. The rest of the men began wearing away at the natural hatchery. They brought it down to about five-hundred life when suddenly a new threat appeared behind them.
_____________________________________________________
.... The Lurkers show up right behind the remenants of the M&M task force, and burrow ASAP. However a few M&M manage to micro, but only down into the natural. With no way for escape they try and do whatever damage they can, but ultimately do nothing, and die.
....Doomer had macro'd up a decent force but not enough to do stop a large scale counter attack. Rice- however was quite willing to throw that counter attack at him. Little did he know however, that Doomer had a distinct advantage. He had the high ground.
 ....The attack managed to pick off a few odds and ends of Doomer's army but did not do what he had expected. The attack was viciously pushed back by Tank Shells and Irradiate, and whenever Rice- tried to kill a few men, a Tank shell would take out three Hydralisk's, and they would retreat. Now that he found himself in a shitter, Rice- decided to pull back at all costs. The Terran Tanks moved down the ramp and Shelled the retreating Zerg units, and Rice- lost another good number of Lurker/Hydralisk. Meanwhile Doomer had just finished his expansion for his third, and moved SCV's from his main to that location. He started a Missile turret, and a Bunker at this location also.
.... At this time, Doomer had just finished another Dropship, and filled it with Marines, and a Tank. He then moved it hastily to the Zerg Main, where at he unloaded them right next to the geyser. This scared off the Drones that were mining there down the the natural. However seconds later another dropship load of marines, and medics touched down. Obviously at this point, Rice- was desperatly running home to save him Main. When the Lurkers/Hydra finally arrived the forces of Doomer had destroyed his Extractor, and we're wearing away at his Lair. The Zerg army rushed into the unsuspecting Terran Forces and layed down massive fire power onto the troops. Spines impaled the Marines well the Hydralisk's focused on the tank. Within five seconds, the Terran drop was no more, except for two Medics, and Marine whom were picked up in a dropship. However they were not taken home. They were dropped off at Rice-'s third so he would notice if he was going to take that base.
.... During the commotion in the Zerg Main, Doomer took his natural from an unfriendly Lurker that was in the middle of it. At the same time he was macroing in a large force of M&M/Tank/Vessel. A few seconds later he unloaded a large ammount of scan onto the map, and noticed the Zerg hatchery at twelve's natural. He began to move his force out to that location only to be suprised by Zerg Forces both North and South of the Temple Wall in the middle. Only a Few of each sides forces were on the north side, but a large array of men were south. Although Rice- fought valiantly he was defeated at the "Battle at the Bridges." The remainer of Doomer's forces continued on their march toward the Expansion at twelve's natural.
....Doomer continued to move his men forward until he reached the Expansion. He sent his Sci Vessel's out in front and discovered a Lurker sitting next to the Hatchery. He Irriated it, waited a second, and then launched a large attack. In this attack he was able to claim a new Hatchery, and broke a Zerg Expansion. However, with his ungodlike Macro, Rice- was able to make numerous Hydralisks, and Lurkers, and was already on route to destroy the Terran force and try and save his expo. Though he was unsuccessful in saving his expanse he still entered combat against the Terran Menace.
.... Though the Terran forces were destroyed the Expanse was lost hurting Rice-'s economy which isn't that far ahead of Doomer's. However, once again, during the battle Doomer made a great move. He dropped M&M onto the Zerg Main destroying the working Drones, leveling Rice-'s Hydralisk Den, Spire, and nearly destroying his Spawning Pool, before reinforcements came into the Main, and destroyed the M&M force.
.... As fast as he could manage Rice- took his Lurkers from the battle at twelve's natural, and stuck them right above where the Terran third was. He has an overlord over this area for quite awhile now, and was ready to kill some SCV's. The Lurkers shot spines through the cliff into a pack of SCV's killing them instantly. After the Lurkers had hit all that they could with their range, a Science Vessel showed up on the scene. He, with all his godlike mana, promptly Irriated everyone of the three Lurkers.
.... Though not very far Economically ahead (1 base to be exact) Rice- is exhibiting great Macro and making an almost endless supply of Hydralisks. He also has been making numerous Hatcheries around the map.
....Doomer now has made another large force with which to hopefully deal Rice- a fatal blow. He scanned most of the map and decided the best path would be right through Rice-'s main. He moved his men out and toward the mishappen land. As his men moved the encountered a Scourge flying around above the bridges outside of Rice-'s main. They promptly slaughtered it, but it did alert him to the Terran presence. Rice- had only minial forces at home, so he horded them until necessary. He created more Lurkers and Hydralisk's well Doomer moved his men into the base. Finally when the Terran troops starting engaging the Zerg warriors, Rice- made his move. He sent his Lurkers up on the right, and his Hydralisk's up on the left. They flanked the Terran troops, which coincidentally the Marines were on the left and the tanks on the right, creating the perfect form of Terran Stew.
.... Soon after having most of each others forces destroyed in a large battle, Rice- seemed to come out on top. He still had about 12 Hydralisks after the battle was over. Immediately he sent them to the Terran Main, but he ran into some trouble on the way. On two of the three bridges at the Zerg's main were tanks, which fired on the Hydralisk's instantly. Though one was killed quickly the other one recieved a Defense Matrix from a nearby Science Vessel and dispatched of the remaining Hydralisk's. Meanwhile another batch of M&M/Tank/Vessel had been macro'd up, and was on the way for a second push. As they approached they encountered a large group of Lurker Eggs, and another batch of Hydralisk's. The Terran troops started to do battle with the Hydralisk's but to no avail when the Lurkers popped out of their shells, and burrowed. Half of the M&M were slaughtered, and numerous tanks were left behind sieged to die.
.... Again, Both of the contestants did a great job of Macro, and were able to replenish their forces. Again Doomer unloaded a large ammount of Scan, and found a base at the Natural of nine. He instantly took his new force and moved there to destroy it. As they took their first shots at the Zerg Rice- rushed several groups of Lurker/Hydra toward the base to save it. Once again however they were too late and the Expanse was lost. They did however, get there before the Terran were able to leave, and brought war to them. They were able to destroy another large force of M&M/Tank, but Doomer was able to conquer the expansion.
 .... Once again Rice- rushed down to the Terran base to counterattack. However, before he did so he ran into a Terran Force of decent size (Another large macro by Doomer). Another lengthy battle ensued whereat the M&M forces pimped a lot of Hydralisk's, and Lurkers, but after about 10 more Lurkers burrowed were impaled. The tanks still slaughtered a large ammount of shit, but ultimately the Zerg won the battle (being the third fought above those bridges :O). However they had yet to conquer the Terran Main. Thought Doomer was low on resources he was not down for the count. He still had a decent force left, and had just made a bunker in the place where he figured the Zerg would attack. However low on gas he had no tanks. The Zerg Hydralisk's attacked straight into the bunker and about 5 marines with medics. Though they stood proudly and destroyed numerous Hydra, they were overrun. Numbers had vanquished the Winner of WCG Puerto Rico, and he had lost his cohesion, and he Surrendered to the vile forces of Rice-.
.... GG. I don't think its really necessary to even say that though as it obviously was. You can download the replay here.
