I am still so freaking pumped by this game. I needed to blog this to record it in history and to give a brief report that I neglected to post in the SC2 Replay thread.

It is as follows:

+ Show Spoiler +
ZvP on Lost Temple
I open up with an overpool like build and focus my production on roaches since they are a great counter to zealots. I build a decent army, defend a bit, try to attack and harass with roach burrow and movement, and our armies exchange a few blows. He then counters with void rays to which I retreat and tech.

I tech and build a couple hydra and push off a void ray attack and decide to break his natural. I start pushing his nat suffering a few losses from cannons, and he counters with void rays at my base, and its a race of annihilation. I try to build hatcheries and extractors all over the map while trying to destroy his base as fast as possible. His cannons give me trouble and I end up losing all 3 of my hatcheries and half my army, leaving a 4 roaches and 5 hydras which die to void rays.

I burrow my roaches and look for his last building, which is a pylon buried in another main, surrounded by probes and two void rays patrolling. I pop my roaches up and attempt to give the killing blow to the pylon until I'm forced to burrow again before they die...and that's when I realized

MY ROACHES HEAL WHILE BURROWED

I proceed to just pop up my roaches and attack the pylon and burrowing again so they heal. I eventually pick it off in the nick of time, winning the game.


To whoever I played this game against, GFG. I commend your void ray tactics as well. Was too close.

I dunno...I saw a PvZ where as the toss moved out to the stomp of zerg the zerg nydused into the back of tosses base.

So toss kills every drone queen and unit at zergs base, and maybe a building or two....the RUNS BACK to his base with his army which is far better but was rapidly losing buildings and we saw little hope watching this take place. He ends up with a single pylon the zerg has missed and decimates the zerg army and the hatchery that zerg put in his demolished base. So now that he has his single pylon vs a zerg on 2 hatcheries, he decideds to talk across the map and proceeds to roflstomp the zerg with archons and such, winning with a single pylon. SO EPIC.
Never fear the darkness, Bran. The strongest trees are rooted in the dark places of the earth. Darkness will be your cloak, your shield, your mother's milk. Darkness will make you strong.
