I finally made it to D+!! Woot! :D After playing for like, 4 seasons. I couldn't even beat D players at first, but now I'm D+ ^_^. It's not much, but it's something. As always, with this comes a battle report. Although, I hate getting the pictures. >_> How do you guys convert them efficiently? Anyway...

[image loading]
He's top right, I'm bottom left. Cross Pos.

[image loading]
Lings chasing probe so he won't know...

[image loading]
[image loading]
5 HAT BEFORE GAS BABY. <3 YOU NOONE!!! Meanwhile, he goes...

[image loading]
Gate-forge before nexus... with a cannon in the main. Whatevs, drone drone drone.

[image loading]
He gets zealot speed.

[image loading]

I get... lair+like 5 hydras. Lol...

[image loading]
I check his forces, find it intimidating, so I run back to my base and add another sunken. Oh, and 2 free zealots. :D

[image loading]
He moves out with speed.

[image loading]
By now, I have a hydra force. So I move out... But we don't see each other. Result?

[image loading]
FFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU MY DRONES T_T MY DRONES...

[image loading]
MY OVERLORDS. T_T

Meh, whatevs. I crunch his army and build up more drones. This time, I move out again and...

[image loading]
MUAHAHA, LURKER+HYDRA CONTAIN.

[image loading]
But storm T_T Oh storm. T_T

[image loading]
Fuck, he almost broke it...

[image loading]
But hey, reinforcements.

[image loading]
Meanwhile, I'm taking my 4th and 5th like a greedy little zerg.

[image loading]
He kills my cute zergling guarding the third, and takes it.

[image loading]
So I attack of course, with lurkers to cut off the zealots at the third :p

[image loading]
His zealots come back. My lurkers are weakened by storms...

[image loading]
BUT THE REINFORCEMENTS STREAM IN! AND IT'S GG!!!

:D Hope you guys enjoyed it. :p

Awesome job. I love the old hydralisks.

Congrats for reaching D+ !
Seeing how horrible his natural sim city was - it wasn't even a sim city - you could have ended the game really quickly

use this to convert images

It really makes things quick and easy.

Anyway, nice job on the game and the D+, it really feels great the first time you ever rank up.

congratulations on D+ !
Whatevs, drone drone drone.

fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu, also I hate lurker contains and his forge/gate is wrong lol
But I enjoyed the BR hahaha, keep it up
Because when you left, Brood War was all spotlights and titans. Now, with the death of the big leagues, Brood War has moved to the basements and carparks. Now, Brood War is unlicensed brawls, lost teeth, and bloody fights for fistfulls of money - SirJolt

That forge/gate is such a fag opening. It gets corsairs faster than normal. I really really really hate playing vs protoss players that open this way. The most common way is: Forge-Cannon-Nexus-Gate. Its safe vs overpool but not 9 pool, because you need 2 cannons.

PCXtoPNG was posted in the BW forum a few months ago but hardly got any responses, which is a real shame. All you have to do is drag and drop.

Also, congratulations on D+ and thanks for the battle report. There are too few these days

Nice work man. Always feels good hitting that new rank

Also its great to see people using under-rated builds and succeeding with them (read: builds that aren't used in proleague). I think it doesn't matter if jaedong isn't using it every game, if the build works for you, then its a great build. Looked like a fun game.

as for picture convertion, i use Irfanview, it has a batch conversion where you can slap in all the pcx and output all jpg or png to a different folder with a naming scheme and stuff. Also you might wanna try taking your screenshots with the replay bar hidden (its one of the options in chaoslauncher), or if you dont want to watch replays with a different launcher, you can overlay a small black square over the replay section to hide it when you do your batch conversion with irfanview.
