Ahoy fellow players in the Adventurous World of Starcraft Gaming, I'm here to present to you the first ever real post of me adventures, I'm Captain Goshirn and this is story of how I suck at playing the game.

I started the game and put in my password, as always I got it wrong the first time and had to try again, some waiting and some clicking and finally I was there, on the multiplayer screen, I pressed the Find Match button quickly and without any second though, not knowing what I was about to face.

Suddenly a match was found, Meric was my opponent, he was slightly favored and was playing the Protoss race.

The game began, I commanded the hatchery to make a new drone, the existing ones to mine and the overlord to scout a base.

I greeted my opponent:

A great micro battle was fought:
[image loading]

As the game kept going I kept focused and alert, watching the minimap with the eye of a tiger.

I called in a special favor from a newly morphed Overseer and spawned a Spy:
[image loading]

That was later upgraded to a Double Agent:
[image loading]

Everything was going great, but the opponent was taking his 3rd, and so for the well being of us all the Mutalisks did the great sacrifice:
[image loading]

While Meric's troops were out of position I decided to attack with all my army, also known as the 300 roaches, they found an artosis pylon:
[image loading]

It went down:
[image loading]

But then out of thin air they were surprised by the enemy, and were surrounded:
[image loading]

They managed to get into a favorable position but were forced to leave, their numbers were too few and one our great roaches lost a son in battle and needed to mourn his death.

So we went home, I took my 3rd, but Iooked at the minimap:
[image loading]

A wild protoss army appeared:
[image loading]

I made as many roaches as I could, remaking the 300, and made some infestors too in hope to turn the tides:
[image loading]

Meric engaged and I commanded the Infestors from the high ground giving us a tactical advantage:
[image loading]

But Merci's army had the great High Templar, and his timing of storms was impeccable:
[image loading]

I though we could still win, but their numbers were too great:
[image loading]

And so the great 300 roaches fell and I microed the best I could with the 3 remaining units:
[image loading]

The drones did all they could:
[image loading]

I remained calm and kept spreading creep:
[image loading]

But it seams that you loose if you don't have any structures:
[image loading]

The End, roaches you will be missed.

You need to work on hitting your injects so that you can spend all your money. If you don't have the larva to spend your bank then you might as well have not even made drones.

I actually got 55% of the injects I was just messing around and didn't spent the larvae when I should, anyway this is supposed to be funny not good, but it will get good over time, because I intend to get to diamond or masters before The Heart of The Swarm comes out.

I like how there was a random carrier amidst the protoss army just hanging there.
My dick has shrunk to the point where it looks like I have 3 balls.

Ahh...I haven't read a battle report for a while.
You should have made more macro hatches so you can make more roaches

you're quite aware, I hope, that roaches are the BEST answer zerg has to archon, zealot, and storm, of which his opponent had all of these.

What else are you going to send vs storm archon? Zerglings? Hydras? Mutas? *bust out laughing*
