Introduction: After watching several games of aP_TaKtIkS owning, and getting very bored, I went back to Nohunters to see if I could find to players of equal skill to duke it out. Nobody wanted too, but then I noticed some people were getting a game together, and joined in hopes of getting an observer slot. The map was PGL Temple with 4 observers. DoomDragon, SSD4, Witchdokta, and :+:Maverick:+: were there, I moved down to the observer section and asked if they minded if I would report it. Everyone agreed and the countdown started. The teams would be DoomDragon and SSD4 against :+:Maverick:+: and Witchdokta, although they would not stay that way.
Early Game: When the game started, :+:Maverick:+: was in the 12 o'clock position as Teal, DoomDragon was Blue Protoss at 9 o'clock, Witchdokta Purple Zerg at 6, and SSD4 taking Red Terran at 3. Each player prepared for an early rush, with SSD4 getting 3 Barracks, :+:Maverick:+: and DoomDragon going 2 gates, and Witchdokta getting a spawning pool then hatchery at his ramp with sunkens. DoomDragon and SSD4 made the first move when they sent all their forces on a double rush to :+:Maverick:+:. A handful of Zealots and two cannons is all that Mave has to defend with, but it worked well since it was blocking the choke and only a small number of enemy men could engage the high ground defenders at a time. The attack fails, and SSD4 retreats his remaining five or so marines back to his base.

| Mid-Game: :+:Maverick:+: orders a counterstrike on DoomDragon, telling Witchdokta to send all his Zerglings. They arrive soon, just before 2 new Zealots can hold position at the top of the ramp. The Zerglings tear down a pylon and Doom's force of Zealots and a couple Dragoons. DoomDragon now calls out his probes to destroy the few remaining 'Lings, but they didn't go down without a fight. The Zerglings killed at least 6 Probes before the last one splattered on the ground. Doom hastily returns to mining, but is now far behind in production.

Seeing that Witchdokta has just lost all his Zerglings, SSD4 sends a large squad of Medirines to Witch's base. When they arrive, he screams for help, but :+:Maverick:+: insists he is fine and counter attacks SSD4 with his army of Dragoons and Zealots. They slaughter a small group of defending infantry, and proceed to disrupt the peace of the Terran encampment. SSD4 has to bring back his force of Medirines to destroy the Protoss invaders, but they have brought flames upon several buildings and have killed several SCVs already.
|
At about this time, DoomDragon expands to his natural, :+:Maverick:+: has already taken his, and Witchdokta started a hatchery once the Medirines left. SSD4 is still holed up in his base, but now places a bunker and turret at his ramp. Some Tanks move into position on the ledge to get shots off at any incoming ground troops. After Witchdokta's natural is up and running, he surprisingly takes his ally's mineral only instead of his own. :+:Maverick:+: returns the favor and warps in a Nexus right outside the Zerg Base. :+:Maverick:+: later takes the top left island further increasing his resource income. SSD4 also takes his natural, but not until much later.

End Game, Or so it seems.... With their resources flowing in, :+:Maverick:+: and Witchdokta set off to end the game. :+:Maverick:+: sets up a Nexus and cannons at DoomDragon's mineral only naural, right before a swarm of Zerglings shot into Doom's natural. 2 cannons, a group of Goons and 2 powerful Psionic Storms take down the Zerglings, but a huge army of Protoss units amasses outside DoomDragon's natural, looking for blood. They march in, and are greeted by storms cannons and Dragoons. The initial attack is unsuccesful, but another wave follows up, ending DoomDragon's hopes for survival. Blue reinforcements manage to stop the battered remnants of Mave's attack force from taking out his main, but a swarm of purple bugs was brewing, waiting for the order to attack. They load up into their respective overlords, and drop right in the middle of Doom's base. They proceed to mow down DoomDragon's base, although a clump of Hydras was taken down by 2 nice Psi Storms. DoomDragon concedes, showing he only has 1 pylon left, and recieves God vision. It is now up to SSD4 to hold out against the powerful forces of :+:Maverick:+: and Witchdokta.

| It is only a matter of time before :+:Maverick:+: and Witchdokta roll over SSD4, and he calmly awaits his death. A reaver drop and a storm raid on SSD4's mineral line stall him, while two huge armies migrate to the middle of the map. Dweb's fly, Psi blades hack, and Phase Disruptors blow away every single defending unit at SSD4's natural. When the Protoss army marches up the ramp, a gigantic 12 overlord drop comes, along with Mutalisk and Gaurdian support wiping out SSD4's main in just seconds. He concedes the game and leaves. Everyone says "GG" except for Witchdoktor, who has a nasty trick up his sleeve....

The BackStab: Witchdokta unallies :+:Maverick:+: and starts to attack him. I'll let the pictures do the talking for me....
