Observer: Tahrajj(me)
Pre-Game
Well I was surfing through the big realm of channels that have no lamers, hunters, etc. in them when I saw 2Inade start talking about a game. So without thinking I asked if I could watch, becuase I had just finished a hard game.
The Beginning
Here are the build orders for the first few minutes:
-DarkZeaiot-9 Pool, 2 sunkens, gas, then hydra den and another hatch while getting troops and drones. Quickly after that he started morphing lair.
Soon after 2Inade finishes his cybernetics core he intelligently says:

So as 2Inade is threatening to DT rush the zerg, DZ sends a mass of hydras to go swimming in a pool of protoss. On the way there, DZ morphs another sunken, and 2Inade warped more pylons and a forge. All was peaceful in the protoss village until they heard the "slush slurg" of the hydras approach. All protoss prepared for war, and soon the fight broke out:

After the battle the ground was stained with ugly zerg blood, and the psionic puke of a young zealot after seeing a hydra's face implode in an explosion of anti-matter. This zealot was then shuned by the other protoss, and 2Inade got embarrassed by him and sent him out into the open, as another mass of hydras were on their way to the protoss:

Hmm, maybe you're wondering how the minimap looked about now? Well you're in luck! Below is the minimap, note how DZ expanded to 6 and take a look at the small teal dot in DZ's main...

Alright, wondering what that little teal dot is? Well, it seems that 2Inade really hates his zealots, for he is sacrificing another one, for who knows what reasons =] Also, pay no mind to the "i ate it" part... I didn't really mean to eat it... really!

Anyway, about this time 2Inade has gotten more pylons and some cannons up, along with a Robotics Facility and more Gateways. DZ is morphing a hive, and finally got a drone down to his expansion he was guarding and started morphing a hatchery, much to my discretion.

No upgrades?!
About now I was cringing as neither of them had gotten an upgrade! Not one! Well, it seems they didn't care becuase DZ sent yet another attack to 2Inade's main base, with a larger force of hydras, but ended up witht he same results as his last attacks:

And yes, it seems another group of hydras followed right after that as well! 2Inade just jumped when he saw his situation: a few zealots and dragoons waiting for a huge group of hydras. Well, you know 2Inade!


It seems that DZ finally got his expansion up, and through using OBs 2Inade decides to go destroy the expansion attempt. He sends all of his units towards the expansion, while building more units and warping a robotics support bay and more pylons. Here is the minimap right now:

Soon after the attack commences and it is obvious who will win.

But it seems that DZ was fast to react, and sent a large group of hydras towards 2Inade's MAIN base! Will 2Inade survive?

The first thing the hydras ecounter when they reach the edge of 2Inade's base is, of course, a defenssless probe. It seems 2Inade has NO love for his troops. I would hate to be under his command:

As the hydras cut a path through 2Inade's lightly defended main, they destroy important buildings such as robotics facilities and robotics support bays, and many pylons and cannons. 2Inade quickly says "doh, i thought that would happen" and then proceeds to ask me if he would live...

Well, to answer his question, I said . He responds .
Mid-game
About this time they worked up a routine. Mass hydra attack, rebuild, mass hydra attack, rebuild. But now 2Inade has expanded twice, and DZ has still yet to expand successfully.

DZ still never upgraded, and has built nothing new except for one more hatchery, zerglings and hydras. 2Inade has two expansions and every building except for air buildings, and a citadel/archives. As I look over 2Inade's base, i give him an intelligent critique of his base.

And now here comes a big ol' zerg attack. Several hydras and lurkers come to lay siege to the protoss scum, and 2Inade, being his usual self, sent out his zealots first:


Because of a well-place observer it looks like 2Inade wins again. Nothing different there. As I yawn at the predictability of the game, I look at some dragoon stats and jump high in the air and let out a big "BAAAAAOOOGAAAA!" Yes! Yes that is one! It is! I faint as I am overwhelmed by the surprise:

As I wake up I notice a line forming. Is it the line starting for Episode 2 of Starwars? Or maybe it's the line to the little hydra's room. Then I see! It's the line to the 6 o' clock base that DZ tried to infest before. Will he be successful?
 
Due to patrolling observers, 2Inade quickly finds out about this expansion attempt and send his large force to destroy it, but it meets with a little delay on the way:

The large ground force of 2Inade finally reaches it's destination and destroys the expansion, again. Due to the graphic nature of this pic, I will just show the minimap:

After the infestation is destroyed 2Inade sends some of his protoss boys to gaurd his 9 o' clock expansion, and on the way there meet with some plain old zerglings.

I quickly remark on how DZ's zerglings were without crack, and he just says: 
The End is Near
Yes, 2Inade is actually attacking DZ's main base! He masses his dragoons outside of the zerg base, and I note how there are still no new upgrades.

Now this is the time we've been waiting for! Yes, after a few minutes of boredom you get to see the end of DZ! These last few pictures explain (hey, that's 4000 words! each picture worth a 1000...):

*note: I chose his race in the beginning, that's why*

After all these pics, you think I would take one of the stats... nope =[
Victory:2Inadequate
Lessons Learned:
-Don't let me choose your race.
-If one strat isn't working, change it!!!
-Upgrades are good.
Game 2:
Info:
Map: Dire Straits
Players: 2Inadequate, Terran, 7:30 vs -DarkZeaiot-, Zerg, 4:30
Observers: Tahrajj(me)
Pre-game
During the last moments of last game, DZ spat out a REMATCH, and so we did...
The Beginning
In the beginning the builds were as follows:
2Inadequate Depot on 8, gas, rax, depot, then a factory and another rax.

-DarkZeaiot- Pool on 9, hatch, then gas and a hydra den.

Soon after these pics were taken 2Inade got a starport, ebay, and academy, preparing for a drop. It looked as if DZ was heading toward a hydra drop. But the first drop came from 2Inade, sending 3 dropships to DZ's main base, each holding 1 siege tank and 4 marines. Two dropships landed behind the mineral line, and one from the left. DZ held them off with little losses, and started to prepare his own drop of hydras.
Finally the hydras drop on 2Inade's island and start to wreak havoc. I try to give 2Inade a tip but he doesn't listen:

Since 2Inade doesn't take my first advice seriously, I say use those SCVs, and well, he does. Also here are other pics of the battle:

The end is near
Yes, and here comes the final drop, right when 2Inade's SCVs were dancing with joy:

And this time there are MORE upgrades!

Well, lets look at the situation. Several hydras are waiting to storm the base. The only guard 2Inade has is one marine and a few SCVs. Who do you think will win?

Well, this time I remembered the stats:

Victory:-DarkZeaiot-
Lessons Learned:
-Upgrades are good
-Bring SCVs/medics along on your tank/marine drops.
-60 HP for SCVs is imbalance!
Wha? You sat through all that? Well, you get a taste of Tahrajj's Bonus pics! Enjoy:
