Yes H.O.T486~[Free] Known as a ZvZ dude came toward me
with his terran account H.O.T686~[Free].
Okay this is how his accounts go
H.O.T486~[Free]-Zerg account
H.O.T586~[Free]-Random account
H.O.T686~[Free]-Terran account

Things all Started as him going "I suck with terran , I am a newbie terran " Blah blah blah stuff like that .

But that didnt matter , as we started the game with him being a terran and as me Enamor(A.K.A Wholly:Known as a funky ZvP in season 3 , reached high 1450 picking protoss.

There should be no excuses as therefore protoss wasnt my main race(as it should be zerg too).

Map:Lost Temple
H.O.T686~[Free] Enamor: Protoss

It started out with me at the bottom left and 686 at 6:00
.


I went for an early gas and went straight to templar archieve with only making a zealot 1~2 .
686 went for a early gas as well as he tech up to vulture rush.


He wasnt a newbie , he knew what to do vs protoss in all kinda well , he even perfectly blocked the entrance to stop my DT.(With a turret 1~2 that will be enough to stop my DT)


I think his goal was to spider mined (which should be enoughto stop my dt rush) and rush his fast running vulture in my base and kill all my peons by doing the hit-and-run
.Then a tank goes behind. since vulture is strong vs zealot,DT but weak against dragoons.

If one protoss player was going for a hard core dt rush it ,
it probably was impossible to stop that.(as it was proven by B-Blade, and SSamjang )


So instead of doing the Dt rush which remains the entrance
wide open , I made 2~3 DT blocking the entrance which stopped the vulture rush then made a 2 newly made dragoons and and headed for my first attack.

By the time my troops reached his base he has tanks in cliff and like about millions of spider mines which did hardly no harm on his base.

I quickly made starport then a nexxus and a cannon or 2 in my expansion and went for a quick carrier .By the time my carrier was out he had a huge groups of tanks and vulture and spider mines.He was actually dominating my expansion as he thought the game was over ....finnaly my carrier pops out right exactly the time he was attacking my nexus!

As it was all no match for my 2 carrier , I used the carrier range to hit and run when he went stimmed marines.

He finnaly retreated his groups of marines and tanks and strated making a mass groups of goliath. by that time my 4~5 carriers was in his exapnsion.
here he makes a pretty well done strategy of killing my observer with his wraith

As I made a mistake on bringing one observer he gets a free
shots of killing a blind carrier.

Boy he thought the winning hand was in his side as he eliminated all my carriers with a nasty wraith trick ,
but starcraft is starcraft , nobody knows the triumph before the games ends.

Carrier was all about delaying the time , My real hand was the dragoon which was upgraded 2/0/0 and was coming out from a 8 gateaway . I was actually hot key 1~8 gateaway pumping mass dragoons , I was letting him get all the attention on the carrier !!!

There about 4~5 groups of dragoons(maybe more) headed to is base , a surprise , *grin* , WOW !,
game over!

he had a 2~3 tanks in the clif and about 2~3 bunker and some lots of goliath which was no match for my mass dragoons.

It actually overwhelmed his troups and then the game.
Enamor:GG
H.O.T686~[Free]:gg
(you could see the difference by the small gg , and the big GG)

after the game he smack talk on me about how dirty my strategy was and it wasnt a good game .
Oh well starcraft is starcraft and if you lose thats it , you shouldnt make



























Battle Shots!

Winning is everything!
