I did a proxy bulldog on python, while my opponent 2 fact vulted and killed most of my early goons.

I then had to drop 2 zealots from my proxy, to get him to stop sending his vults straight off the facts to my base, until i got observers. I think he suspected proxy reaver or something, cos he built an ebay and some turrets in his main, i ended up having to attempt to bulldog his nat 3 times before he finally died.

His vults ended up killing almost half my probes, by the end i was on 3 bases with like 15 probes mining at all of them put together.

Back when I was even worse than I am now, I played a TvT on Python where my opponent dropped tanks and MnM into my main (2 ships worth) and I was so unprepared i had to abandon my main and I floated what i could to my natural. I spent the next hour retaking my main, expanding to various places on the map and basically duking it out TvT style with Tanks Goliaths and Eventually BCs. Nukes were exchanged a few times. I felt like I was losing all game, just barely hanging in there, and I think I only won because I was more determined than my opponent =P

I told an icc admin about that computer bug about a year ago. Guess they never fixed it.

Weirdest 1v1?

Well I got a lot of those when I still played....
but the weirdest and most irritating game I ever had was a noob telling me what to do when he was obsing, then doing a pure bs build against me and owning him hard.....

+ Show Spoiler +

basically he was telling me to scout at 4 and build my base over at my enemy's. Of course that won't work. We played 1v1 next and he did that against me, it was PvP btw. He really build his base in my base, didn't even care not to let me see it, and his zealot was a second short of spawning before my probes razed his gateway. Long story short, he needed to start his base all over again on his own, behind tech and all, he got raped...funny thing was he never knew what hit him. He totally thought that it would work.

Weirdest game was a TvZ on python with my korean friend. He doesn't seem to understand that cheese is bm. But anyway, he knocks on my door with a 5 pool. I manage to hold it off but lost a fair amount. Anyway, I continue playing, knowing that I should still have a better economy, when I see creep in my natural. He proxy hatched me, and set up a massive sunken line. I don't even know how he got the money for it. But he contained me and I tried to hold out for some sort of factory / starport tech but couldn't, gg.

Bisu vs Pooku?

Anyway, a friend sent me a replay of him going 12nex on Andromeda, against a terran who, it would seem, was going 14cc (either that or just forgot to build anything more than his depot). Anyway, as soon as the T scouts a 12nex, he sends all his SCVs, killing all of my friends probes and winning the game.

I got a Drone mind controlled against some crazy 300+ APMProtoss and ended up losing to an Ultra/Crackling/Archon/Zealot army. It was a sad day indeed...

Haven't really had a weird game that sticks out but..after watching Flash vs Movie in the osl finals I thought I'd actually attempt his sort of mine out protoss strategy on Heartbreak. It was going well, but after the guy suicided about 3 armies into mine while I sat there he said 'you're really good at camping' and other stuff then left. So that was kind of a fun game, I won literally doing nothing but taking bases/sitting there.

I once had a PvP back when HBR was a really new map. He contained me with 4 gate goon, actually killed my fast nat (that i took with 2 gate obs probably?) But he was content to set up a contain there, so with my first shuttle I ferried out like 16 dragoons just over the wall of my base unnoticed, and started marching towards his base. When he noticed my counter-attack, he decided to push into my main as response, in which he succeeded with great casualties, and he managed to maynard a handful of probes out of his base before i tore it up. I shuttled my drones out of my main

Anyway, I cleared his main and placed a new Nexus there, he did the same with mine. After switching bases like that an additional 10 minutes of standard macro game followed, and I ended up loosing after all

I also had a PvP on Tau Cross where i DT rushed, and he 3 gate gooned without obs, the game ended in a 10 minute long search for hidden pylons from both sides, which he ended up winning barely

Interestingly enough, both games off the top of my head are PvPs that I lost:-p

I once played this game against the OP where I 4-gated goon and caught him with his pants down. It was weird because out of the bajillions of games I've played against him it was the only one I won!

Hmmm...this is very hard. I'll pick two of my games, sry that I've got no replays, I'm too lazy now to search for them...

1. ZvP, the toss decided to go goon/reaver, but wasted his shuttle. the he switched to corsair/rvr, while I took the whole map (Desti), after holding off his harassment, he was finally down to 1 mined out base, but still didn't want to leave - cuz he got massive overmins, and then he built carriers with one arbiter. after I had killed them with devourers only, he killed his own nexus and left. wtf.

2. ZvZ, double 4 pool with drones. total chaos!

both games on D level.

The weirdest 1v1...I don't really have a weird one to be honest except for maybe when i won a game with scouts...but that's just kay/meh. There was one instance in a game that my scouting probe killed 2 drones though!

The first is a TvP on Destination (don't have the replay) where the guy went for a dt rush build, but instead of attacking with his first 1 or 2 DT's when I had NO detection, he waited till he had like 15 and by that time I had turrets and 2 scans

haha, thats like my favorite strategy

mine was most recent.. vs TSL-rondo, we played 2 games prior at 1-1. he proxy gated me last game, and i lost, so i decided to proxy gate him 3rd game as i was tilting. turns out he proxy gates me again. we both manner pylon eachother (HBR) and harass probes with our initial zealot. then, as 3 of our zealots are made and attacking eachothers probes, we both decide to bring back our probes to help our zealots race to kill eachothers buildings. only, he has been cutting probes and made 2 more zeals than me, so he has 5 zeals to my 3 and to make matters worse for me, he has more probes aswell. we kill each others main, me killing his a little faster, we move on to kill eachothers proxy gates with pylon. i send my probes to harass his units trying to draw them away from my gates, and once i see that it distracts him enough, i send my zealots to attack his gates. he gets vision of this and ignores my probes and attacks mine. as his gates have 25% hp left, i realize he still has another building in my main! his manner pylon. i lose hope and as i am about to type gg, i realize that i manner pylon'd him aswell, so i quickly send my 3 zealots to kill his pylon in my main, as my probes finish off his last remaining gate a little outside my nat and win the game. long write-up, but the reason it's weird and funny for me is because it was a game i was sure of losing ;D

I attacked my own nexus in the first 2 min of the game with my initial probes and was shit talking the entire game. Then right as his overlord peeks into my main, and sees my nexus burning, i get eliminated, and a loss T_T.
