Well, there I was on iCCup, minding my own business, when I think to myself: Why not ladder? It's a beautiful day, and I have nothing else to do.

So off I go, to the charted waters of 'join game'. I see a game by the name of something along the lines of "D HBR 1v1". I joined, and I see the name "star.eveday". I think nothing of it, and continue to pick my race. I go Z, he goes T. ZvT is definately, without a doubt, my worst MU.

So the game starts. I get my usual 9 drones, then spawning pool. Ah, the good old 9pool. Always helpful. Anyhow, my first 6 lings arrive at his base and see... a command center? My goodness! I proceed to kill the scv and move into his main. I see an unfinished supply depot and gleefully attack it with my force of eight to ten zerglings.

Needless to say, I take the game with ease. All I can say is BO win!

Edit: Not quite a serious blog, mostly just for a laugh or two.

I really don't understand why he felt the need to 14cc against someone 5 ranks lower than him X_X

After the Flash vs Jaedong game I played four Ts in a row who 14ccd. Needless to say I won every one of them because I always 9 pool. So he was probably just trying to copy flash.

I really don't understand why would a B- terran not go 8-9 scout to block nat with ebay or something (2 player map) and eventualy scout the 9 pool.

At least Flash does it safe, with scouting.

He certainly doesnt always scout
(he did twice in the msl finals though)

Seems stupid to me to do that in ladder though, esp. against a much lower skilled player.

T's 14cc all the time on HBR, but I don't understand why, i thought Z is supposed to go pool first on maps where their choke can get blocked for an easier bunker rush?

Choke can't be completely blocked and 9 pools can be stopped with proper placement of the wall on the nat. I didn't watch the rep but I'm guessing that the guy lost because he was silly and didn't think he would be facing a 9 pool.

Good job Although it wasnt a straight up win. I mean I could probably beat a progamer once in a while with a 4 pool.

Yeah, once you get B- you'll realize you're still scared of losing bullshit games to low level players.

It never changes.

What I didn't get is why a B- named his game as "D HBR" ? And why the OP didn't notice or react to the stats that automatically get displayed on joining the lobby? And if he didn't notice it as the game starts, then how did he notice it later on? And also, Quantim Mechanics as a whole.
