Silly bugger decides he's going to block my natural hatchery. After sending my drone to my third, he chases after. I get pissed so I throw something special at him.



Marks a nice little winning streak. A few games later, I won an elimination race against a Terran using guardians.

He didn't even block your natural hatchery, did he? You just went overpool as soon as you saw the probe.

Yeah it is. Filler just to make the game seem go longer.

But I was still going to put a hatchery down. He blocked it.

Yeah I'm confused as to why he only got 1 cannon vs a zerg that overpooled and scouted him first.

either way, nice win lol

Yeah, I just play it to waste time and to warm up my hands between SC games. I don't really play seriously.

Actually, I think 6 lings beats a solo cannon anyways. So if you didn't bring the drones he probably wouldn't have pulled probes, and you could've still killed him. Then again, 6 lings beating 1 cannon is not a story. 6 lings + 8 drones vs cannon is a far better story to tell

-_-

every time i pylon block or block expansion, they try to all in ling me, so its nothing new for me Plus scouting was really bad on p's part, didnt know what to expect. Almost always i throw down a 2nd cannon since they have spare minerals if they dont throw down a hatchery.

I dont consider this is not epic, since it's simply expected and used like 80% of times by D players.

The main reason to do this kind of stuff is to tilt the player so they go allin without thinking it through.

I usually put down the pylon first and let the Zerg find out later that there's a pylon blocking the nat.

Heheheh XD

Same. Pylon at nat then chase the drone to the 3rd

Lol, the drones are actually counterproductive, as the lings kill the cannon more easily when the drones aren't blocking their path. xD

6 lings > 1 cannon
12 speedlings > 2 cannons

In any case, if there's probes blocking the passage, you won't be able to kill the cannons if I remember correctly.

I do that too, although I'm playing MBAA atm (it emulates really well for me, I have a ps2 as well though). You should learn some of the loopy combos, very nice to get your hands hands going and fun to see.

Having my hatchery blocked by buildings is very grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr moment for me.
No I'm never serious.

Bowman why are you so bad at StarCraft T.T

I thought you would at least block his Nexus with a Hatchery. All you ended up doing was losing drones to a Toss who doesn't know how to wall
