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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

I wish this would give +200 gold, too.
Got an assimilator, might as well use it.

Baller probe.
Rax CC as an answer to gas steal, works for Flash, right?

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.

This is a Russian Zealot. SUKA!
1 dead marine and 1 dead scv later, not looking good for Flash.
![[image loading]](http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c138/CynanMachae/StarCraft%20game%20mp/MP09.png)
With a macro like this, those zealots better do a lot of damage.
Zealots and baller-probe get hungry for SCVs.
![[image loading]](http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c138/CynanMachae/StarCraft%20game%20mp/MP10.png)
That probe should be careful with that gas.
Not looking good for the Terran, but some SCV drilling are keeping the zealots at bay.

Baller-probe got an idea.
Did he really just do that?
![[image loading]](http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c138/CynanMachae/StarCraft%20game%20mp/MP12.png)
Baller-probe: That's how you do a manner pylon.
GG quickly follows.

SCV: Wanna hang out? View is beautiful out here.
And just because I felt like it:
+ Show Spoiler +
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!
Edit: Here's the replay as asked: http://www.repdepot.net/replay.php?id=37086

I miss these types of blogs as well, thanks for doing one.
|
hahaha
awesome! mustache-probe ftw
|
Great post, the Tasteless probe reference was very appropriate ^^
|
Funny thing is you can probably glitch all but 1 scv out of the super manner pylon anyway.
|
LOL that manner pylon is 10/10
|
|
|
Lol Nice battle report. Got to love manner pylons :D
|
Haha, was pretty funny til I saw the manner pylon, then it was just hilarious.
|
|
|
Rep or it never happened
lol jk.(still want replay though lol, preferably posted on repdepot.net)
Most hilarious replay EVER. Now own the flash-wannabe with mass zeal/storm/arb with some goons lol.
|
I think it's one of the little things I like about playing Zerg. You can't get manner pylon'd in the minline.
|
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
|
Hahaha sick manner pylon

lov'd it.
Toss still gets some.
|
Does he know that building a supply there will fuck up your scans?
|
I remember that NonY has this short YouTube clip of him doing something similar (the manner pylon, that is) in a PvP... that made me laugh, much like this blog
|
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

Scanners are for people who survive past the six minute mark.
|
Classy. I wonder if manner pylons are viable in SC2.
|
Nice pylon but it's still possible to get at least every scv except one out from there oO
|
funny writeup, your friend needs some practice tho =D
|
|
|
|
|
Lol nice man, epic manner pylon, I saved that shit haha congrats on your 1000th post ^^

im finding it hard to believe this was not staged ...

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. >.<

Then study up boy! Heres a couple threads to help u study!
Gas steal stopping guide.
Anti-Gas steal BO
Question thread on help with gas steal and early aggression
Tell me if u need more
edit: and yes I did this just so the OP would lose to this kid
|
dude? i can get workers in a manner pylon out even if theres only 1.
|
|
|
People saying you can get workers out, yes, but that wasn't really the point of that post And anyway each workers getting out would get slaughtered by zealots and the game was already over
Oh I didn't even think of that thread lol. Still, making a blog was fun <<

This game was fun. And I just said that to be funny, not because I'm completely oblivious. >.> <.<
Also how fast can you get SCVs out of a manner pylon?
|
hahaha 5 star blog a bit too much brag but its good..

Hit stop and most of them will bug themselves out of the space, presumably.

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.
|
oh boy...scv stack so that the manner pylon could trap pretty much all of them?
T_T
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
Geez, have more trust in Rigel

excellent manner pylon! 5/5

Bumped because we always need amusing BW blogs.
