"Quotation from the Book of Eldritch;
'And the lord spake thusly; 'Thou shalt have a Carrier, and thou shalt destroy many. And in this holy baptism by fire, thou shalt freeth many souls of their unholy bondage to such evil cults as the Aurorans, the Polaris. Then, thou shalt be raised above all, to such heights as thou darest not dream.' And then EldritchEvil, cowering before the lord, spake thusly; 'Indeed, O Lord, I shalt do as thou asks. And many shalt fear my name.'
-1:9 Book of Eldritch"

It was a 3 player FFA on Lost temple
Me, Templisk, is zerg. Top right
Protoss, Top Left (Will be known as TP)
Protoss, Bottom left (Will be known as BP)

Well I do a my 9 hatch taking my gimme early. My overlord scouts early
I do my normal joking.

Me: Cool! I start with a flying unit!
Me: Well I'm going attack and your all gonna DIE!
Me: HEY! Why is my flying guy not attacking? TP must be hacking!

I see that TP is going zealots.

Just distracting them a little. I'm getting myself a few lurkers for defense. I send them over to TP and I confine him plus I keep 3 for defense. My 'attacking' overlord sees that TP is taking the top island expansion.
BP is taking his gimme expansion.

I now have overlord transport. I send a drone to bottom island XP (Expansion) I see that there is a TP shuttle. I make two scourge to kill it. However he drops a probe so I send my 3 mutas to kill the probe. I take the bottom XP.

Around this time I scout and see that TP has taken his gimme and is going templar. So I make a few queens for broodling. A little while later I send my army of about 4 guards, maybe 3 devs and 6-7 mutas to kill his XP. I having a bit of problems. His dragoons are killing my guards and I don't dare to engage the drags with my mutas because of storm. However I carefully keep my guards above the ledge and I got burrow and burrowed a zergling below his ramp. Now I'm able to broodling every templar he sends.

At about this time I double expand taking the 2 bottom spots. I set up 3 lurkers and 2-3 spores to defend the gimme and then I send a drone to the main part of it. However a BP carrier comes and kills it but I was able to cancel the hatch. So I make a bunch of scourge at my other expansion and kill the carrier. I then remake the hatch and I set up a few spores plus I have a bunch of scourge at the gimme. I finsh killing the TP gimme when BP attacks the main part of the bottom XP. I scourge a few carriers but he has at least 12. I make scourge and I'm sending groups of 6 scourge at a time killing half of his carriers but the expansion is lost. He manages to steal a drone with a dark archon. With my unkilled exactor I see him making a zerg expansion. I see I won't be able to keep scourging because he is throwing up cannons.

However it is basicly a 2v1. I had at least 7 guards for dealing with TP drags and templar. However my anti air is lacking.

The BP has 2-2-0 6 carriers left and maybe 4 corsairs. I make 3 groups of 6 scourge and assign them to hotkeys. Then I make a dozen mutas and with my 3 devs plus my 7 guards. I send my guards to kill his cannons. They quickly kill them but he sends his carriers. One carrier is parasited so I easily got my 3 groups of scourge to kill 3 carriers. I'm losing the battle but I have a dozen mutas being made at my main. 3/3 air upgrades are done at around this time. My next force of mutas quickly arrive and destroy his carriers. I march my army towards his main. I kill his 5 defending cannons and he leaves.

During this time I was sure that TP would expand. However I was amazed when he didn't. However he had a huge force of drags. Maybe 18 or so plus 3-4 temps. He attacks but I manage to get my army back in time. I quickly broodling his Temps and I slaughter his force with my 3/3 fleet vs his 1/1/1 dragoons. I rebuild and send my forces to is only expansion he has. The one on the island. My 7 or so devs are patrolling to keep shuttles from coming in and my guards quickly slaughter this expansion. However he keeps sending drags at my main. I keep on broodling his temps and the mutas I'm making from 4-5 hatches hold him off. One time he sent about a dozen drags with templars in shuttles. I send all my dozen mutas in my main to kill the shuttle. I thought I managed to kill the templar inside but I was wrong and he dropped one templar. I lost my mutas to storm and he was heading towards my main but I quickly used about 6 broodlings on the dragoons. My 12 broodlings slaughtered his 2 dragoons :)

At this time he disc. Ah the wonderful world of ladder :) The scores said I made about 400 units and I had roughly the same amount of resources as both of my enemies combined.

I ended the game and I saw my record was now 0-2/976 from the 0-1/996. My real record should be 2-2
