Hey, Code name Merlin.787 coming out and saying it.

I DREAM a dream... A dream where all the little boys and girls will live togetherrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr and stop the hate and .............................nope, not that one.

I actually dream to become a top GM/Pro player (insert audience laughter). No honestly, my dream is to aspire to become one of the greatest.

I started Starcraft 2 VERY late, starting Season 2 walking into a new world from my old days playing in BW I realized...

Holy shit I'm bad.


[image loading]


DAMNIT CAUSE I AM

But then I got better, Silver turned to Gold, Gold... To platinum and then to diamond? OMG IM GOSU SHIT

Wait wait wait... THERES A MASTERS LEAGUE? fmlfmlfml -.- I got this shit, 1a2a3a marines here I go and roll noobs all day.

(Yeah I had no soul... I played terran, oops?)

I hit masters going 5rax expand everygame pumping 100 marines rolling kids left and right, no skill, no game sense, but hey. I'm a master right?

[image loading]

Oh yeah I still suck, and have no game sense and get crushed by anyone good. Masters sucks, I suck fuck my life.

RACE CHANGE !!!!!!

Time for some Brotoss action right brah? Changing a race, going through the motions of learning mechanics for once, no big deal right?

[image loading]

Yeah well oops, I got crushed back to diamond 70, rolling down and down the spiral of shitty play I realized... STEP UP YO GAME. Using tactics never heard of before, I started going into crazy games and WINNING? WHAAAHAHAHA?

Yeah, forging with 2 cannons against a 4gate into fast dt's pvp, brah what? what y u mad? It happened.

And now I'm here, opening 15nex against terran to stop the 1/1/1 push WHICH HITS EVERYTIME YOUFUCKING FUCKERS or opening 2gate into expand against zerg you know, cause I can? Or doing crazy shit and winning pvp.

Level 39 Masters, it happened. Played favoured opponent ARK, rank 17, pvp? yeah 2cannons on ramp, 1 sentry double gas into fast dt? then expaned behind cannons and killed his probe line (or all but 7) and then just won the game 5 minutes later with 200/200 army? yeah shit happened oops?

"y cannons noob"
"gg faggot"

-.- me so good

So I aim to please, moving up to Masters and soo to hit top 25 and keep climbing I hope you enjoyed my first blog entry. It's late and I work at 6 am so I'm heading off. Peace

Merlin , Brotoss forever. Thanks for viewing.

-LESSON INTO PVP FORGE/DT-

Thought I'd add the build structure. It's rough around the edges, but has been doing wonders, post if you have suggestions.

9 pylon (scout with this probe on massive maps i.e tal darim)
11chrono (scout with this probe on smaller maps)
13chrono (not 12, if you go 12 chrono you miss 2 seconds of time before you have 50 minerals for next probe)
13gate
14gas (depending on if you felt the need to scout earlier, earlier scout means 15gas instead)
Gateway finishes, make core (16ish?)
after core starts, probe then 2nd gas.

Key notes, you will have to not lose your scout untill the stalker comes out. "VERY IMPORTANT" if you see fast core/first unit = zealot plus gas not taken until probe dies. HE IS 4gating 99% unless he is bad.

Here you simply lay forge pylon ramp for 22/26 and place 2 cannons, tech to dts instantly, dont hesitate lay your 2nd and 3rd gateway.

Here you simply move into a midgame plan

(IF HE IS NOT 4GATING) go into some tech heavy build, you got your gas first, your in the lead in that regard. USE IT.

That's all there really is to say, you'd be surprised at how strong this is. Try it.

Quote of the moment: Discovered by the Germans in 1904, they named it San Diego, which of course in German means a whale's vagina.

Tell me who said that quote, and I'll post your name onto my blog as the winner. PM/first to post.

Wooozy guessed right Ron Burgundy, his prize is ... The fame of being on my blog, horrah.
