Hello everyone. I have just finished a day of watching a new season of GSL and laddering mindlessly to try and improve. It was about 12AM when it happened and I was really considering just calling it a day and going off to bed to get some well earned sleep, but I decided to give it one more game. Im so glad I did because I have just been blessed with probably my best moment in any video game I have ever played.

I clicked the find game button and drew a PvP on Metalopolis. As I dont really like the match-up, I usually just try to 4 gate the guy. This game was different though, he was 4 gating aswell which triggered a base race and what followed was pure gold. Never before have I been shaking while intensely microing 4-5 units around the map, it was just so BRILLIANT. Anyways, if you have a spare moment. please watch this game and tell me what you think of it because I have been playing starcraft 2 on and off for about a year now and I have never experience the feeling I got from this game.

+ Show Spoiler +

The last few minutes of this game was so fun, there was warnings of a tie break and both players were revealed with 4-5 units each. The last part of this game sent me into a fit of screaming around my house for about 5 minutes when I microed my zealot to draw his army away from his pylon. I dont know why I got this feeling because I dont even care about my ladder rating, but its by far the most fun I have ever had playing games.


Here's the replay for whoever wants to watch it:
If you watch it, be sure to look at the army supply of both players at 9:57

[PS - I am not a high level player (Platinum) so I dont really know if what happened this game is common or not but I have watched so many tourney games and I have never seen a game that is this close before.]

I'll check it out when I get home - if you want to see a crazy close game, you have got check out the TT1 - Masterasia game, it sounds really similar to yours with respect to a small number of units holding off for a really long amount of time. (Since you said you've never seen one like it before)

I had a PvT like that on steppes where I just 4 gated and sustained pressure against his double bunker FE and managed to pull a win after almost mining out my entire base, I''m sure I can dig up a VOD or replay somewhere, I'll post it and watch yours later when I have time.

Also, more on topic: Watched the game, was cute. :3 But you coulda just straight killed him if you didnt send your probes at him by themselves. :D

I had a similar super micro war resulting from 4 gate vs 4 gate recently. But instead of a base race, we just 4 gated each other for a half an hour and ran out of money. :D:D:D

Edit: Whoops I forgot. THANK YOU SO MUCH YURIE I NO LONGER WANT TO KILL MYSELF! ^_^

Hahaha, so funny - mainly because I've been there before and can imagine the anguish so vividly.
