Of something so dank and vile a strategy from the cesspools of cheeses, your article was quite well written and profound

That was so badass! The end was fantastic!

Appropriate music to listen to while watching the replay:



The enemy probe is obviously Ivan Drago.

uhhh, your post doesn't make sense. You're just trying to get e-famous off of exploiting people not as good as you at a videogame.

First you say this,

So what happened? I would not attribute it to any improvement in my worker rushing abilities. I've been using the same method since the beginning: Send workers and attack move. If they focus fire a single worker, I move it away, but I generally don't do anything more sophisticated than that. Hell, if I see them attack move, I immediately leave the game, so it's not like I'm somehow forcing victories through dexterous micromanagement where others would fail.


Yet everything in all 4 of your posts suggest otherwise. That you actually do try, and you actually do your best to beat these "bads". I can't believe TL spotlights this garbage.


I think you don't know what he means.


Enlighten me.

He says he doesn't use mico to win his games, yet in just this post alone, both games required extensive micro.

Next time I will include a replay pack of me leaving 100 games where my opponent attack moves to sate your curiosity.

Micro can't pull a victory out of thin air; my opponent has to first allow me to win. I'm not stealing wins from bronzies. They are giving me wins through their poor responses to what is the most easily defeated "strategy" in existence.

Once again, well written and hilarious! I was reading the description of that last game with fervor, wondering who would come out on top.

Many have already said that you have writing talent, but you counter this by saying that the Bronze league provides the stories... Which leaves for us to admire your dedication and eye for observation. Keep on writing!

Time to lose a hundred games or something until I reach the bottom of the ladder. Worker rushing seem way more fun and epic than any pro game I have ever seen haha ^^

These blogs are constant entertainment.

Surely if they just A-move they'll have more workers by the time you arrive at their base?

edit: which race do you most prefer worker rushing with?



I can answer this one for you, I managed to get to Gold before I even knew what A-Move was, I would just right click at the enemy and focus fire. Haven't lost to a worker rush since I worked that out, before that I was trying to micro my way out of it.

Solid gold, but if you spend so much time worker rushing and writing stuff as good as this, do you have any free time left?

Can't believe some people are being so serious in this thread.
Hilarious series that I would not have found if it weren't spotlighted.

Hahaha, dude, you are such an amazing writer. =)

"As CatZ continues to hum the tune of a Lonely Island song dully into my ears, my addled brain is telling me that a done will beat a probe in a stand up fight, which is true, if you both attack move and watch. The done should regenerate enough health to narrowly win. However, my probe is still at half health from his unsuccessful stint as a pylon demolitionist."

I'm sure you meant to leave the "r" out in drone and refer to the Stallone Drone as "probe" to see if people are actually reading your blog. hehe ^_^

Blah. That always happens to me!

Wanted to check if it was actually ctrl+shift that actually changes it, and now I don`t know how to change it back ._.

lmao good job riling up the bronze players!
Have you considered the MMO-Champion forum? You are just as irrational and delusional with the right portion of nostalgic populism. By the way: The old Brood War was absolutely unplayable
