ohai guys :D

You may have remembered me from my "what rank will empyrean get on the ladder if he actually ladders" blog. A few significant hurdles include my 110 APM, my utter lack of commitment, and the fact that I'd rather just play DotA.

The following is a battlereport of one of my recent ladder games. It's against a C rank Terran who was moving up the ladder the same time I was. His profile is accessible at http://www.iccup.com/gamingprofile/PoW］JoDeTe-.html

The pictures tell the story. They're captioned and the units have little speech bubbles. Each image will be in its own spoiler, since it's the best format to view this battle report (kind of like an animated gif except you have to click to proceed). This is going to be rather image heavy, so sorry in advance and I hope you enjoy!

...done entirely in MS Paint.

It's a PvT on Zodiac (current motw...blegh). I spawn at 11 and he spawns at 7.

Empyrean is a pretty cool guy. I've played quite a few games (one of each matchup) with him before

Very nice read, and the guy GG'd as well, but seriously, our vultures are your DT's, now cloaked vultures, that would be awesome (for me).

Oh and have a 5.

I hate making stuff in Paint. It feels like it takes twice the effort to get things to look right...

Make more please! ^^

Haha, if I have any entertaining games I might make some more....they kind of take a long time, though, so it depends :<
