I've been missing those kind of blogs back in the days by LeperKahn and Salv, and decided to do one with a game I played some time ago. So here we go with a PvT!






This PvT between me (CynanMachae) and a Flash-wannabe friend of mine (Rigel) takes place on Destination.

[image loading]
The Shrimp doesn't bite.


We might want to take a look at what the T is doing up there, opting for a supply in main.
[image loading]
Pro Terrans don't wall off.


Most Terrans will agree that gas-stealing is a very douchebag thing to do, so Protoss players out there, don't do it.
[image loading]
Terran: I thought we were friends .


Might as well continue with some zapping action, just make sure you don't look dumb and forget to macro while loosing your probe.
[image loading]
Surprisingly, this isn't as annoying as in SC2.


SCVs don't take probes 1on1, don't try this or else you'll just feel sorry for that poor little dude. Those probes certainly are badass.
[image loading]
I wish this would give +200 gold, too.


Got an assimilator, might as well use it.
[image loading]
Baller probe.


Rax CC as an answer to gas steal, works for Flash, right?
[image loading]
What's the little dot in the middle of the map?


Fucker, a zealot first. I hate to deal with those as T. But with some Flash micro this shouldn't be a problem.
[image loading]
This is a Russian Zealot. SUKA!


1 dead marine and 1 dead scv later, not looking good for Flash.
[image loading]
With a macro like this, those zealots better do a lot of damage.


Zealots and baller-probe get hungry for SCVs.
[image loading]
That probe should be careful with that gas.

Not looking good for the Terran, but some SCV drilling are keeping the zealots at bay.
[image loading]
Baller-probe got an idea.


Did he really just do that?
[image loading]
Baller-probe: That's how you do a manner pylon.


GG quickly follows.
[image loading]
SCV: Wanna hang out? View is beautiful out here.


And just because I felt like it:
+ Show Spoiler +
[image loading]






So there it is, I've reserved this blog for my 1,000th post. I wanted to use it for some kind of "baller quotes" thread or something, but someone got to do it before me : clicky

Speaking about baller:

Anyway, hope you enjoyed!

Funny thing is you can probably glitch all but 1 scv out of the super manner pylon anyway.

Epic sauce! But to be honest, I feel sorry for the tyke. Hope he didn't rage too hard and decide to quit SC after that.

Also, would you mind kindly posting the replay, please? :D

Ever since that game I have been afraid of drilling scvs when there are probes around. >.>

I can't decide which was worse: this, or that rep of me vs kennigit from last year. T_T

Does he know that building a supply there will fuck up your scans?

Scanners are for people who survive past the six minute mark.

So if he played more standard u would've one? 0.0

edit: also, thx for the replay! Gonna watch it right now :D

Also, lol@ the guy saying Rigel never loses.

edit2: lamo I just watched the replay and I recommend it over the "battle"(1-sided) report. That was the most hilarious observer I've ever seen lamo. "O I didn't realize that was an assimilator" "I was like wtf how did u mine gas from the enemy" so funny lol. And then its not until the rax is almost done that Rigel realizes he had the worst depot placement ever lmao.

No, he's much better than me, I almost never beat him.

I was just acknowledging that I really am bad enough at dealing with that sort of thing for that game to have happened naturally, not staged. >.<

I didn't say I'd never beaten him. This was the game directly preceding the one highlighted in this blog: http://www.repdepot.net/replay.php?id=37087

Also, in SC2 we're much closer (though I'm still behind), since I have good macro and terrible everything else.

of course blocking your own CC addon wasn't the most brilliant way to start off the game.

Rigel knew that so he intentionally trapped his SCVs to save them from the zealots
