Lifetime Rating for AeroDemon_IE: 6.5000 |   | This game was my 2nd game in the last 2 months. It started out with Tahrajj_IE picking random, and SuperCrackling choosing zerg, while I chose to wield the might of Aiur. We were going to ffa on a map I've never played. We started out with Tahrajj top left, Crackling top right, and I was in bottom left.
I started off with my usual toss build when someone mentions this is an island map and I scout to find they are telling the truth. Getting my cyber core up quick, followed by a Robotics facility, when that was done made a support bay for reavers. Meanwhile building a shuttle to scout, as soon as I had the minerals i warped in another robotics facility. Then proceeded to build 2 reavers and started to upgrade Reaver Damage. I sent my shuttle bottom right to scout to find an empty mineral spot. I then sent that shuttle back to my base to pick up my finished reavers to notice Tahrajj comstat me. This was good news, a terran to drop on.
I sent off my 2 reavers to Tahrajj's base in the top left corner and dropped next to his mineral pile. He had nothing that could stop the might of my reavers, and proceeded to lift off to the center to rebuild. And that was the end of him basically.
Meanwhile just as I was finishing off the last of Tahrajj with my reavers about 6-10 mutas flew overhead. Quickly I packed my reavers onto the shuttle to drop on Crackling. And thus a battle begun at both of our bases. I dropped my reavers behind his mineral line to destroy his drones and successfully put a halt to his economy.
Back at my base I saw his mutas were coming from top left corner so I put dragoons there to meet him, I stopped his mutas from doing any real damage. And saw that the game would be won in the air.
I warped in a stargate asap and made an expansion to closest base. I had about 4 corsairs when a horde of mutas came flying in, thank god for splash damage because my one corsair managed to take down his last 3 mutas. I warped in 2 more stargates and managed to fend off an attack at my expansion.
Also during this time I dropped 2 reavers and 2 dragoons behind his mineral line to cripple his economy again. Although he didnt seem to be hurting to bad with all of his mutas he keep pumping out.
Now I went on the offensive, I sent about 6 corsairs to his base to take a out an overlord or 2 and his mutas. He had about 2 spore colonies so I put my corsairs in the very top right corner out of harms way but enough of a distraction for him to concentrate on them.
Meanwhile with 3 stargates pumping out corsair and my 2 new reavers I sent out my new army. On the way to his base I discovered his expansion which I killed with ease because he had no defense. I saw him send around 12 mutalisks to kill my reavers so I sent my group of corsairs to meet them half way.
From here I proceeded to drop my reavers just outside his base and take out all defensive structures while I let my corsair stop any production of new units.
Crackling admitted defeat and we all allied. It was a good game and was a confidence builder considering I haven't played in such a long time.
