| Old Gosu (Montaro) Vs. New Gosu (~Siberian~BuLL~) | | | Author: | | | IP: | c882539-XXXX | | Date: | 03/31/00 08:03 | | Game Type: | Starcraft | | Labels: | none | | Report Rating: , # of Ratings: 1, Max: 7, Min: 7 Lifetime Rating for MacBeth: 7.0000 |  | Once Upon a time, in a game called Starcraft there lived a species of impeccable players on a special Kali server. These players were regarded as the GOSUs they high level of skill and trash talking. Striving to become a GOSU myself, I waspracticing my shit-talking techniques when all of a sudden 2 real gosus started awar. Their names were known and respected throughout the server....Montaro and~Siberian~BuLL~.
Being a smart CHOBO(what you are if you are not a gosu) I shut the kcuf up andlet them argue knowing that either they'll end up playing a game like most truegosus or they'll chicken out when the time to play comes. Unlike another knownsoldiers and hungered for battle...eager to back up their shit-talking. I quickly
jumped at the chance to make a battlereport. Since nobody was eager to be on the SMACKDOWN section at the Tao-of-gaming.. I swore to put the report at the reknowned archives of battlereports.com
Note: Montaro uses handle Xion, while ~Siberian~BuLL~ uses the handle eldin.
Tonight's Battle: Montaro vs. ~Siberian~BuLL~
BattleGround: The Found Temple since everybody and their mother knows how toplay this level
Old Gosu: Montaro (Xion) - Terran at 6 o' clock
New Gosu: ~Siberian~BuLL~ (eldin)- Protoss at 12 o' clock
Observer and Reporter: MacBeth
The other guy: Mochaman (come to think of it I almost forgot he was here too...hehe)
The battle begins....
Being a chobo player....I feel Montaro is going to lose to a quick dt rush. but I keep my opinions to myself and watch. ~Siberian~BuLL~goes for early recon, scouting clockwise on his 7th probe. Montaro builds a depot on his 9th scv and then uses it to scout counterclockwise. Both workers cross each other at the choke leading to Montaro's expansion. ~Siberian~BuLL~ tries to kill the scv that's building the wall off barracks but Montaro annihilates that worker. Meanwhile at ~Siberian~BuLL~'s, his build order goes like this...pylon, Gateway, pylon, assimilator, cycore. This has me thinking dt rush already. Montaro's wall-in is complete and he has a single marine as his defense while he quickly builds 2 factories.
Coming back to Lee the amazing SCV, he has located the protoss base and succeeds in killing 2 probes while escaping with his life!!!! Montaro's words said it best..."That scv had his Wheaties." Lee waits outside the protoss main for recon purposes. Meanwhile ~Siberian~BuLL~ changes course.. he adds another gateway and goes for dragoons while expanding to his natural. Ahh...Boy do protoss players love Dragoon containment against heavy metal. His first dragoon is ordered to assasinate Lee the SCV..which it carries out with extreme prejudice...poor scv didn't stand a chance. ~Siberian~BuLL~ contains Montaro with 3 dragoons at Montaro's 2nd expansion while upgrading dragoon range.
At Montaro's base, the 2 factories both have addons with spidermines researching.
His first vulture cleverly places spider mines at the entrance to his natural then heads out...encountering the dragoons. However, speed sure comes in handy as the vulture leaves the goons eating dust and heads into the protoss main attacking probes. A few probes attempt to stop the vulture but a microed vulture just eats workers up. By the time the goons reach base, 2 probes have obits and Montaro has just finished producing 2 tanks (no siege yet). He has also constructed an ebay and 2 well-placed turrets to defeat drops. He also laces his main with mines so any detectionless drop will fail. ~Siberian~BuLL~, now cannot afford anymore attacks at his worker line. He adds a forge and photon cannons by his workers.
A slight pause...Montaro is prepping to bust out of containment using 2 tanks he placed perfectly on the his high base, some spider mines, a few vultures and 2 more tanks. ~Siberian~BuLL~ has about 8 dragoons containing. Not enough to stop the coordinated strike. ~Siberian~BuLL~ is forced to pull back his 3 remaining dragoons while Montaro expands to his natural and sieges up his 2nd natural and his frontal defense. ~Siberian~BuLL~ has a card up his sleeve though. He puts up a robo facility and a stargate. Montaro is well prepped in case of a drop adding 1 more turret by his peon line and 1 at his choke while adding a 3rd factory in his main. He has also added an academy and proceeds to make 2 comsats. ~Siberian~BuLL~ adds a fleet beacon and an observatory. He's all tech right now.
I sneezed and the silence was broken. 10 dragoons head towards the terran 2nd expansion looking for blood. 5 ran back. The combo of well placed spider mines and siege tanks was too well coordinated for a force of only 10 goons. Meanwhile, Montaro wants to the limits of ~Siberian~BuLL~'s kingdom and sends a vulture to scout the 3 o'clock base. It finds nothing but leaves 2 spidermines..1 near the nexus position and 1 at the ramp. ~Siberian~BuLL~ is not yet docile. Realizing that he is not making any impact to the terran main, the goes to the 3 o'clock base with his goons in hopes of expanding there. He also adds a 2nd Stargate to his main. ~Siberian~BuLL~'s goons quickly dispose of Montaro's vulture camped there.
Suddenly, a bad omen. ~Siberian~BuLL~'s first carrier is born. Montaro has NO goliaths or marines. "Houston, we have a problem" Montaro must have scanned to notice this because he starts his armory shortly before the carrier is complete. Montaro has also been quite busy. He he is prepping to take his third natural (building a command center) and already has a command center floating to the SE island on the map. Montaro decides to attack and sends a decent army of tanks and vultures to the protoss main. A battle ensues with the protoss victorious despite heavy goon casualties. No matter. Montaro has 3 expansions 1 of which is mining maximally. The other 2 are not yet fully efficient while ~Siberian~BuLL~ has only his natural expansion since he has not yet started building his Nexus at the 3 o'clock he holds with 2 dragoons. Montaro adds 2 more factories right by his 2nd natural and turrets up his spot.
~Siberian~BuLL~ decides it's time to claim the 3 o'clock spot before he gets desperate. He cannons the ramp while he waits and behold..the 2nd carrier is born. Montaro has the SE island slowly mining and has control of a good portion of the central map with tanks, mines and a few turrets. ~Siberian~BuLL~ has finally started construction of a base at the 3 o'clock spot. Montaro has a perfectly placed siege tank by ~Siberian~BuLL~'s 2nd natural to warn him of any impending danger since he has started construction of a new base and the 9 o'clock natural. The siege tank comes in handy when it fires on a control group of dragoons headed that way. They slow down to destroy the tank and Montaro quickly cancels the construction of the command center. ~Siberian~BuLL~ simultaneously attacks the terran 2nd natural with a force of 3 carriers but Montaro has Charon Boosters. The carriers are forced to run...more like cryers. While some goons arrive to cover their retreat.
In game Tech review:

Montaro goes for the 9 o'clock main this time, but is discovered and a squad of dragoons is sent to destroy the infant base. Montaro flies the cc away and sends in troops to quell the protoss threat. Montaro has completed 2 starports at this time with no addons yet and has about 4 wraiths. He decides to attack the protoss main but does not organize his troops and ~Siberian~BuLL~'s carriers and dragoons get the best of Montaro. At this time, ~Siberian~BuLL~ now has level 2 shields and is much tougher. No terran unit leaves that battle alive. Everything from wraiths to goliaths to tanks die on that fateful battle. ~Siberian~BuLL~ feels more confident now. He takes the 3 o'clock natural and cannons it up. Montaro floats his 9 o'clock cc back while he feels it's time to make the protoss pay. He attacks the 3 o'clock expansion. 6 carriers and a bunch of dragoons are sent to stop the terrans. ~Siberian~BuLL~ microes this battle pretty well. He notices that Montaro is favoring goliaths instead of tanks. He attacks with his carriers and then microes them back while goons that are outside tank range attack the goliaths. When the goliaths switch targets, the carriers come back into battle. This tactic basically left the 2 siege tanks Montaro had out of the battle. When the goliaths and wraiths were all dead, only a few goons had been lost. The tanks were easily despatched. ~Siberian~BuLL~ warps in multiple pylons at the 3 expansion. He is going heavy macro of goons and carriers.
The protoss strike force attacks immediately not giving the terrans any chance to recover. The terran defenders give it their all, but it was not enough. The carriers and dragoons tear through the terran 2nd natural. Observers make the spidermines useless and the sheer power of the protoss units...now level 3 shields just overrun Montaro's 2nd natural. Lot's of scvs fight but only kill a few goons and they all die.
More carriers and goons are made and they just exponentially increase the rate at which the terran bases are destroyed.
Montaro has been defeated by ~Siberian~BuLL~.
GG to both Gosus
Note to CHOBOS...
Montaro told me that he started slacking off after the first 20 minutes and I believe him. He practically had the game wired. But then again, ~Siberian~BuLL~ is no walk in the park. Says he ended [9]Everlast's streak and that he beat Tillerman 3 times in a row. I believe it too even though I haven't spoken to either of them.
Montaro's heavy metal is off the hook. He never got sci vessels, wraith cloaking or upgraded his factory units. If he had, he most likely would have won. 100% gosu. He coulda gone for the good old tactic of cliff sieging ~Siberian~BuLL~. Fewer units and is usually more effective.
~Siberian~BuLL~ is very attentive. He noticed Montaro's favoritism to goliaths and shifted to having the dragoons as the core of his army. He coulda teched some more e.g Templars but perhaps he didn't cause he couldn't support carriers, dragoons and templar all at once. No CHEDDAR. This guy is a legit gosu.
Montaro was really disappointed in his defeat and challenged ~Siberian~BuLL~ to a rematch. All of a sudden, ~Siberian~BuLL~ the soldier, got cold feet and left Montaro at the altar (he refused a rematch). He didn't even return the ring...just kidding..
Here's a message from Montaro to ~Siberian~BuLL~...
"When you're tired of being a l}itch@$$ mofo, let me know. I'll be back when 1.08 is out"
It's been fun everyone. I like making brs. If I'm on the Tao server and I ask to make a report about your game, pls oblige me.
