it was me & necrile v my bf sam and his bro steve
they're real asshats w/ zerg
all our comps are in the loft so i was sittin there trying to be all secretive and shit and they were just like 'heh no no dont attack yet just chill'
and they just chilled and chilled and built up dudes just out of my viewing range
then i was housed in on a peninsula and didn't realize until i had a number of dark templars who i was trying to send to wreck up a joint and they walked straight into a field of detector things
so necrile tried to bail me out w/ nukes and i tried to blink past them with my stalkers but i couldn't get out no matter what so i gave up and started making air units
i sent a wave of air units to run w/ necrile but then s&s stormed him and assimilated all my void rays instantly
|)
then they ran down to my base
i had 15 fuckbillion turrets which took them a bit but eventually they wiped mostly everything
but i holed up a small deposit of probes and dark templars just outside the base and suddenly started rebuilding and turned all the templars into archons and i actually lasted a good few mins against them and even built another base (lol) after they found out and sent in about 14.5 trillion zerglings and megalisks
it was p funny but aggravating
anyway whenev you guys wanna play lemme know

I srs had sent in like 5 waves of a couple of ghosts within 50 marines, trying to call in a nuke on their little zerg plantation, but they always wtfpwned me in a matter of minutes :/ I guess rushing just straight up doesn't work on anyone who knows what theyre doing (granted i killed about 5-6 of their drones in the beginning with mah reapers :p)
yea in the very beginning sam was all "oh hey maybe this guy knows what he's doing!"
then 5 min later he goes ":I well maybe not"
imo you did p good considering you'd only had the game a few days!!!!!
im pissy b/c i thought blink had a larger range ;[
considering how everything was peninsulas it would have been a better idea to spam out air units in the beginning i guess.
god damn protoss are so slow ;[
i thought up this strat last night though, how do you think it would work?
in the beginning after i do a few def measures and enough probes i build a mothership, then a few stargates. (note: i have to build like 5 diff buildings not incl pylons to get to this point) i spam out a number of phoenixes b/c they're cheap (air only tho) and the defense research. while that's happening i work on a fuckton of dark templars.
after the mothership has a lot of energy stored up, i send my phoenixes into an enemy base with my mothership tagging behind at a clip.
the enemy focuses on killing the phoenixes long enough for my mothership to waft to their base.
i use vortex along the way to stop some of the damage done to it long enough to get there
then i use the teleport ability to warp all my dark templars right to their main base and past their detectors and kill their base and as many probes/scvs/etc as possible.
assuming they didnt put detectors next to the base.
(if so i turn them all into archons)
still would leave me rather open in the beginning though. idk.

Yeah i've watched some stuff on how to harass as terran, but i cant seem to get it right because either:
-I can't properly figure out where his base is in the beginning
-I fail at micro
-He already has a fucking army
-He has a unit right on his probes
We gon' play again tonight ven? Maybe me and you vs. some bitch ass normal AI?

Thanks :Ppsiclone":219uy90u said:
But yeah, if anyone wants to play 1v1 2v2 or vs AI (or anything really) i'm game. I'm usually on whenever and I main Zerg. Anopob.777
Anyway, who here finished the campaign? I thought it was good overall but a bit lacking. The fact that some optional missions had some cool lore but because they were optional it was ignored by the characters was sort of lame.
Example:
Zeratul missions. They revealed a lot, but they were optional, so Raynor didn't really talk much about it.
Im not sure what your email or character code is anopob, so if you want to add me, add necrile@hotmail.com.
T_T I thought the 777 was a suffix to the character name. Alright, I'll add ya :P. Also, I'm a bit upset about how commonly terran are used. I learned how to play as them offline because I figured everyone would be using zerg and protoss (because they look cooler? idk) What are your experiences? Have your matchups been pretty varied?
Hardly. I mean it's mostly against Terran (duh). If you haven't been reading a lot about the competitive pros in the Sc2 scene this is probably due to the fact that Terran is OP. A lot of top tier players are switching from Zerg to Protoss/Terran because of the fact. However, if you keep playing many games (er, I mainly only play 1v1, so) then you actually do get quite a mix of players although it's obvious most are Terran. I'd say it's roughly 4 Terran to 2 Protoss to 1 Zerg.
