| D*mn Ginger Tasters Like Me... vs some ppl | | | Author: | | | IP: | bess-proXXXX | | Date: | 09/10/01 07:09 | | Game Type: | Starcraft | | Labels: | none | | Report Rating: , # of Ratings: 3, Max: 4, Min: 2
Lifetime Rating for Ussmak: 3.0000 |   | The evil drug has its hold on me even now... so me, Vegeta{cAs}, and my ally, The.Terrible, decided to 2v2, on the most evil map ever... The Hunters. Me in my Protoss phase, I was horrified to see that The.Terrible had clicked on OK before I could choose race!!! Fortuneately, the random gods gave me Red Protoss at the top right corner of Hunters (about 2 o'clock) and The.Terrible orange Zerg at 3 o'clock. Our honorable, non Ginger-Addicted enemies got some White Protoss for I||agen or something like that at top left (about 10 o'clock), reffered to as Ill in this report, and Mindslayer got Blue Protoss at 9 o'clock, reffered to as Slayer.
I went pylon at 7 Gate Gate pylon then started pumping Zealots, adding another Gate and pylon around 20/25 control. Terrible had opted to go 2 hatch lings while teching to Hydralisks, which served him well. I had one of his Overlords for detection, and popped down another Gate and two pylons when... 12 Zealots showed up at my base. I used my horrible micro for about 3 seconds when I realized... Ill WASNT MOVING HIS 5 Zealots! They just sat there while my nine Zealots wiped Slayers seven off the map. This was accompanied by much white bashing by both myself and Slayer.
They next tried to smash my ally, Terrible, who had 2 hatches, a pool, 2 sunkens, an extractor, and a Lair building. His 30 or so SpeedLings held off about 15 zealots, somehow killing them all without my help... with 15 or so Zealots and 20 Lings, we proceeded to rape Ill horribly. He tried to escape, but we killed his last building before he could get to Slayer. This was also accompanied by Slayer saying how newbie his partner was, but my partner and myself couldnt really care less, being so filled with Ginger as we were.
In the meantime I had popped down about 8 more pylons, 3 more Gates for a total of seven, a Citadel Of Adun, Templar Archives, Cybernetics Core, and of course gas. When my Zealots in the middle suddenly disappeared to 3 Dragoons and a Reaver, I realized Dark Templar must be there somewhere.
Terrible had 4 Hatches by now and an expansion in bottom right. I expanded to top middle and put down 4 pylons, Nexus (duh) 3 more Gates, and a Robotics Facilty. I had realized by now that upgrading was a good idea, and had 3 Forges running merrily, with my forces at 1-0-1 and going up.
I was pumping happy goons and took the middle again, when a mixed force of Goons, Zealots, and Reavers took them out. Damn him to hell! I took some more Ginger to bolster my confidence and began making Goons AND Zealots (it took some time people to realize that mixed forces are better :) and greatly outnumbered his forces when 35 Goons and 4 Reavers showed up at my entrance. After they were gone I took Middle (again) which I would hold for rest of game.
Terrible had dropped on him once, and got his forces asses kicked for it. He had low defense, and I was worried about him. He made 6 Lurkers, which I pointed out wouldnt work vs. Observers and Reavers, which Slayer had. For another few minutes, it was up to me. I took some more Ginger, noticed my men were 3-1-3, and decided if Terrible would drop one more time I'd come up Slayers entrance and, well, slay him.
It worked, yes it worked! I was grateful once again that Drefsab hadnt reported me as a Ginger user in Besancon I think it was in France, and the Big Uglies were mine! Atvar had no idea how good Ginger makes you feel, and as Terribles Hydralisks chewed up the Robotics Facilities that had been pumping Reavers. Trying to counter, Slayers forces found mine in the middle, and I stomped them fairly easily. He said GG, and left.
Overall, an okay game. I was ahead of Terrible in scores 142,000 to 85,000, approximately. Slayer didnt do that bad with 90,000, mainly cause of our stupidness that let him rack up an amazing kill score of about 50,000 I think, for the length of game (abotu 20 minutes). My thoughts of Hunters as a mucho money map were reinforced by the fact that I had about 5k Min and 3k gas when it was over, but Terrible likes Hunters, so I went along. The only mistakes I thought I made were I didnt get detection or units like High Templar and Reavers, but they werent needed for this game.
Skoob: A snipers killed the Commander!
Ussmak: No!!!
Nejas: Gurgle.
Ussmak proceeds to mutny and take over some Lizard base in the USSR, which leads to the Commies gettin some pretty kickass alien gear, and Ussmak dying in some Gulag in northern Russia. Damn that ginger! |
