So, remember my first blog? Well, my friend and I are going to get a chance to embarrass some people at a LAN party at this university hosted by some tools. I know they're tools because they hosted a tournament that my teammate won and I got third in. Temamate is good, but at the time I was like a 40 APM Protoss who knew only two builds: 5pool & DT rush. And I got third... And that was only because I messed up my assimilator timing in the semis, or I would have got second. I'm a bit better know, and esspesscially good at 2v2. And these guys suck and are assholes. So, we're trying to figure out good builds to beat them with. Right now, we're considering Stove into Dark Archon mind control recalling their SCVs, mass scouts, and double nuke rush. Oh, and infested terran rush. Any other good ideas?

Oh, and just to prove these guys suck, one of them is a terran whose standard build is 4 racks... and another is a zerg who doesn't build his first overlord until after he expands...

It sounds like you could make up anything on the day and win. How about some mind controll with protoss then rolling them with 24 BC's?

um...what exactly are you trying to prove? that you're so much better than a bunch of random sc players from your university that you can DA rush them or something? If I were you, I'd just play standard and save yourself the embarrassment when the 4rax guy steamrolls you with bionic when all you have is a scout and a dark archon.

I went to a LAN event that featured starcraft for the hell of it pretty much

I won. Hell, there were some ra3 players there. I beat them 1v5. Their amazing strategy was build 5 defense turrets before a barracks.

I've got experience in tournaments with people who have no clue how to play starcraft. My favorites:
Give them vision at the beginning of the game, and proceed to roll them. Be careful to remember that they'll be able to see cloaked units.
Mass BCs and nukes, and use the double nuke to take out CCs and stuff.
Depending on the opponent, mass DA into mind control army. Fails if your opponents simply mass cannons without any units :/
Probe recalls. You can fit quite a few probes into a recall if you stack them.
200/200 army for Protoss/Zerg/Terran via mind control. Preferable Carriers/BCs/Guardians/Devs/Muta. Had an entire computer lab filled with nerds screaming, and some kids actually whipped out their phones to take pics.
Floating buildings into base to attack.
Old pimpest play cannon rush.
Cannon slowpush starting at the middle of the map and slowly pushing in.
Mass arbiters.
Mass scouts.
And the list just goes on...


EDIT: Its important to note that most bad players don't actually understand that your strategies are making fun of them. So all that ends up happening is you have tons of fun doing retarded shit and they think you're really good and using cool strategies. Except for shit like visioning your opponent ofc.

Make 12 ultra- rush enemy base. Have 12 queens brooding ultra, double your army size in seconds. Repeat.

just lurker/DT rush or something because they will probably be too noob to get detection, and if they do it'll probably be in such a bad position that you can walk right past it and into their main.

I say this because I agree with divino and fluffy. If it was just some LAN where you wanted to have fun then try doing cute stuff, but if you really want to just own them and win then I'd get straight to the point.

Watch NonY's "arbiters" FPVOD.

Invaluable knowledge if you're trying to fuck with a player who's worse than you.

I'd say play standard and don't do anything stupid because if you seriously need our help to think up of funny builds then you're probably not that good...

Either way I hope you get your cocky attitude shoved back in your face :D
