I queue for ladder.

PvT on Xel-Nega Caverns... Most excellent, I can practice my 3-gate expo into chargelot archon!

Scout at gateway.

Strange... walled off the bottom of his ramp! Lemme keep an eye on that.

Two gates go down.

Scout with zealot/stalker.

HOLY SHIT!

[image loading]

ALLIN OMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMG I'm gonna die!

http://drop.sc/15509

+ Show Spoiler [Battle Report] +
At his ramp I spot him moving out with 12 marines 12 scvs. At the moment I have 23 probes, 1 zealot, 1 stalker, and 1 sentry just completed.

By the time he gets to my ramp, I have 2 sentries and a stalker. I sacrificed the zealot to buy me a few more seconds. I use this extra time to throw down 2 more pylons to ensure I don't lose power.

[image loading]
My hero...


FF once, and my 2 extra gates finish. I queue up 3 stalkers and back away from the ramp. One more FF. He's waiting with 15 marines and 10 scvs RIGHT OUTSIDE MY BASE.

FF ends. He attacks, I pull probes and attack with all my probes, 2 stalkers and 2 sentries.

[image loading]

It's a fucking massacre.

After all my probes die, WG finishes, and my 2 stalkers pop. Now I have 3 stalkers, and enough resources to warp in a stalker and a sentry.

FINAL BATTLE: 1 zealot 3 stalkers 1 sentry VS 13 marines 1 SCV!

[image loading]

Due to micro and hope, I pull ahead with 3 stalkers alive: 80, 8 and 2 HP respectively.

I charge to his base and engage marines, pulling back the weaker ones and abusing the stalkers superior range.

[image loading]

After a few minutes of micro, he accepts defeat.

Kill count on the remaining 2 stalkers:

Master: 17 kills.
Master: 19 kills.

I'm in master league, he was in diamond.

I didn't even think about him lifting off!

That really would have ruined my blog though, so I'm glad he didn't. =P

Very reminiscent of this game (Except it was one hero instead of two :x):

4hp and 8hp... nice. Although you did mess up your initial engagement, probes getting slaughtered whilst your army is busy walking around your gates.

Well done keeping calm though, I pretty much fall out of my chair whenever I see all the scv's charging up my ramp.
Only the weak link is strong enough to break the chain.

whoa.

that game was SICK.

And yes, similarly to falling out of my chair, I just get that sinking feeling in my stomach...

Whenever something like this happens, I -always- try to hide 1~3 workers somewhere in a corner, just for safety. But good job :D
