Hi, I am currently a diamond Terran player SilentCf.771 and I had competed in the CSL Lone Star Clash. I made a Thread about why UTSA will take the event really just to bring attention to our "unknown" school. It wasn't that we were unknown but we were neglected to be put on the OP of the lone star clash when it talked about CSL(more to do with our late confirmation). Well we did somewhat pretty decent for our first ever display of the talent we have. We had a group of only 3 compared to other groups of four and went 1-3 both matches but it was against the supposed #1 seed University of Houston where our starting match, I, SilentCF vs GM 40 something HeavensLight(who happened to be the "pro" who was also playing in the "pro" invitational tournament)
The game was on metalopolis TvZ. Most people would play against a Grandmaster and attempt to try and learn something about the game yet, hitting mid game all I was thinking about was how much I never ever wanted to play starcraft 2 again. He BM'd me multiple times, one time in particular by burrowing a huge supply of banes outside my nat just trying to make me burn scans. Overall being Bm'd multiple times in front of my friends made me think of how much I could easily say fuck it and just act like I never loved sc2 to begin with and just never play this game ever again. As I was killing his burrowed banes, and his 2k minerals of lings he just sac'd into my marines, I thought maybe what if I could kill his tech and stop his upgrades my marines would be really efficient when I get 3-3 thinking maybe I could BM him back in some way to redeem myself in front of my friends. The worst part maybe was I was getting BM'd in front of my students I helped coach a bit as terran players from silver to plat. I started to push his main and snipe some tech structures to hopefully pull myself back into the game at least somewhat.(not to win just think of a good counter BM =] )
We kept making trades. Some times he would get good fungals but I always had another army ready and waiting. So after this point, I was really just confused and I'd like to think I know my way around late game when I have 3-3 infantry and the infrastructure to adjust to ultra and or broodlords tvz and honestly I'd like to say I know how to make marines quite well. The game happens as it does me trying my best to be as efficient as humanly possible with marines. Eventually, I accomplish what I didn't believe I could in the first place but seriously CSL isn't meant for pros to just wreck on lesser players and just attempt to embarrass them with BM, at least that is my opinion.
If I was supposed to GG it was because he killed my buildings of some sort not because he killed half my army then suicide his whole army 3 times over. Yeah I won because he attempted to BM and technically by not thinking I would be aggressive back he ended up throwing the game but the point is this isn't necessary I would've rather been wrecked and given the replay of how well his micro and execution is versus a player trying to show how well he can gain a "macro advantage." This is the second time I have ever played against a GM and I am sure it wont be my last. HeavensLight if you ever do read this I hope we could play again a best of series(some time from now) because that is where I excel the most anyways. I hope you play more professionally in your future matches GG.
Either way this game was a great early birthday present for my bday is monday and can't wait to ladder and bring my new confidence into my play. Ill post the replay later. its st pattys and I'm drunk as fuck. I am glad I got through that game or I would no longer be a player of this great bad ass game. I love you starcraft 2 you'll never cheat or lie to me.
Edit:wow I typed a lot last night sorry I wont drunk blog again. <3

ITS TOO MASSIVE CANNOT DIGEST
|
I don't really think its BM to burrow banelings in front of your base? Also, wall of text, please do some formatting, this is a pain to read.
|
Maybe your friends haven't told you, but you're a bad drunk-blogger.
+ Show Spoiler +Don't worry, I won't post this in front of your friends, our secret <3
|
Grow up, your OP makes you look extremely thin skinned if you actually thought about quiting starcraft multiple times cause you were a little embarrassed someone a-moved/burrowed a million units at you cause they didn't care.
|
I kinda agree with Count9... I don't think you would learn much from a single game where he baneling busts you and you die either. 5 minute games tend to lack that as well.
|
...
reps or it didn't happen
|
Did you won the match? I read the entire thing but got so confused in the middle I don't know what's what
And my English sucks
|
|
Dude get tough, it wasn't like he was calling your trash or abusing you lol... Ever watch a gsl match they manner mule each other etc all the time its all in good fun... He was being cute and you won so get over it......
|
How are your students going to learn anything in a GM vs. Diamond match, especially when you think that burrowing banelings is being bad-mannered?
Also, wall of text and drunk blogging? x.x
|
I well post replays asap I promise I so need sleep. The point was looking forward to a learning experience and just trying bmd so hard but you would have to see the game yourself.
|
I'd say Polt took revenge for you, killing him with 4 hellions...
|
LOL did he touch you at you private parts?
|
...really? Burrowing units is BM?
I guess stim is BM too.
|
This was so confusing to read, try adding paragraphs and reread your next blog several times to make sure it makes sense.

I think it was really bad manners of you, to spawn as terran in that game. I also think it was really bad mannered to build siege tanks and marines. I also think it was bad mannered to drop in his main. You just don't do that, you're supposed to walk over there and not use siege units. I also think not using your enter key EVER is bad mannered. And the fact that you didn't gg back made you BM too.
|

I should just start burrowing units all over the place from now on, this blog has taught me that burrow can cause mental anguish and maybe my opponents will just quit sc2 all together if I do it. Thanks for this valuable lesson, also you should probably be happier considering you beat heavens in front of your friends. He is a really good player.
|
He made a wall of hatcheries infront of silents third. He burrowed half of his army right infront of silent's army. He sacked about 40 drones into silents army even though he needed drones. He sacked about 2k minerals worth of zerglings in to silent's sieged tanks and marines. Watch the vod or watch the replay when its posted. I was there and I was offended how this "pro" behaved. Make your own assumptions after you have watch the vod or replay.
lol. You are a bad drunk poster silent
|
He can't let loose and have fun? Lol when he sees a diamond player, I bet he kinda lawld in his head. He just had fun...
|
Good thing you didn't play bw. Zergs were so bm they would make lurkers and then put dark swarm on top of them! Imagine invincible banelings that never go away. BM!

Its a tourny for 1,500 dollars. Anyone who is anyone who is a pro and plays for a pro team who plays for a top tier csl team who win or loss could affect the entire team should take a game seriously. Go have fun smurfing ladder not in a 1500 tourny.

rofl @ nyoken
I'm not sure what to make of this blog. It's really hard to read too.

as a GM myself, i often troll vs low level players in tournies because its fun and playing a real game vs someone a few leagues below you is pointless

|
I got carried away with the trolling and lost the game(obviously im not gonna intentionally lose in a tournament with 1500$ in prize pool) honestly if you're insulted by it , grow up. it was all in good fun But since you got so upset over it, for what its worth, Sorry.
