This is pretty much the perfect example of special tactics. Special tactics are tactics that aren't the right move by the book, and indeed they cannot win over the long term, but when applied in just the right situation, are exactly what's needed to win that situation.

iirc, the original special tactics was going 7gate speed zealots off 2 base pvt on blue storm. it works only if the terran doesn't scout it at all and only if the terran extends himself (for an early third or for a timing attack). if those conditions aren't met, then the strategy is hilariously bad. but indeed those conditions were met, just like white-ra predicted, and special tactics was born

Let me ask you something: did you actually get upset or was it just some saving-face ego-sparring?

Coz you don't seem like the person that can be ticked off THAT easily, and you're surely too smart to try to outmuscle the bouncers. ('outmuscle' includes verbal wars in this case)
