| LOL! He lost 146 buildings, and you lost 5? What, ZERO? That's pretty funny. Right when i got to Mid-Game, I was thinking Ultras/Queens. Good report, learn to hit that print screen key more. |

SSSSUUUPPPEEERRR REPORT!!
I usually dont have the time to real all new ones, just normally the Goldens.. but this one I could not resist!
I just LOVE! to see Protoss ripped apart by the Zerg..
I too had lost in my early days to those Cannon wallers and Carriers.. I remember long ago I played with zerg such a guy and I owned the map and all, but he with his gimmie massed carriers and slaughtered me.. even though I successfully dropped him 3 times, and had him really on the ropes.. Oh well, nowadays I just LOVE to contain some 1 and Queen assasinate and Guardian Hit and runs...
Great tactics and the action was constant, one never wanted to stop reading... I laughed much too...
8.7 in my book!!!! |

Because my real Battlenet name must remain a secret due to the top secret nature of my work, hehe. I don't actually play under the name The HydraDropper, it would make my favorite strat a little too obvious for the unwashed battlenet public now, wouldn't it? ;)

I don't wash.
Nice writing style. I hate hydra droppers because it works on me, but I can't pull it off myself. Oh well. I'll have to give your build a try.
Keep up the good work. |

You haven't played against me recently then :D |

| Dark templar rock against zerg. They force the zerg to micro a little when he tries to expand, and he has to send overlords with his troops everywhere. And once he gets in that habit you bust out the corsar... |

What do you suggest against a newbie cannon/carrierer. Thats my friends master strat. Its fast. Its deadly, its annnoying. Me thinks tanks/goliath with 24 ghosts w/ lockdown. Suggustions?
(maybe a nuke rush...) |

Very cool report=] I liked the humor and the kinda like the secret identity gimmick;-)
BTW, shouldn't anything that outranges cannons work well against cannoning in? With support units, of course.

| Heh, maybe now people will believe me when I say you can mass Carriers with only 2 geysers if you're determined. ;/ Still not a bright idea anyway. And Dropper, that many razings in a 1v1 is nuts.. how many of those were cannons, 100 or so? |

OOHOO! COOL!
REAL good Report!!!
just one tiny little thing:
What the heck is "cloning"?
Otherwise amusing, well-written...bal bla bla... very good..., well, you know what I'm talking about.
Keep'em coming

Cloning is when you use multiple units to do multiple tasks at the same time. Example: 3 Queens broodling three templars at the same time.
1. Recon templars (use parasite etc.)
2. Put the queens in a control group, start from far away
3. Holding down the shift key, hit "B" and left(?) click a templar
4. Still holding down the shift key, click on one of the queens in the wire frame pictures of the control group to deselect it
5. Still holding down shift, hit "B" and click on another templar (a repeat of step 3)
6. Repeat step 4.
7. Repeat step 3 again to get the last templar.
If you have started from far enough away, the queens essentially broodling all 3 templars more or less simultaneously. If you start from too close, all 3 queens may launch their broodlings at the same templar, wasting 2 spells (i.e. you didn't get to deselect a queen in time so it broods the same temp). This technique can be used from everything from locking down carriers with multiple ghosts to yamatoing multiple towers to getting your workers to mine different mineral patches. I understand it is difficult to do with more than six units.
It is tricky micro against carriers with ghosts as the carriers stack atop one another making it difficult to target different individuals, but some people swear by this... I definitely feel not letting protoss/terran amass the carriers/bc's in the first place is the thing, too much burden on the defender to block against these brainless but powerful steamrollers, any little mistake microing your ghosts or defilers etc. and your base is wiped in 5 seconds flat...
