I recently acquired a leaked replay depicting an epic clash between TL's Pholon and DogSPA. I deemed it necessary to write a battle report to share with the community. It is worth nothing that in the game lobby, good manner was exchanged as it is illegal to chat during DogSPA sanctionned games. Without further ado, let's jump into the game.

+ Show Spoiler +



[image loading]
Yes, it happened




[image loading]
DogSPA in the top right




[image loading]
Pholon in the top left




[image loading]
Standard stuff from DogSPA




[image loading]
Cheesy 2 gate




[image loading]
DogSPA manages to get the scouting scv in




[image loading]
Right after the scv dies


I always thought people with special icons on TL would play straight up for some reason. I mean Pholon works on liquipedia ! How can he be so underhanded yet promote the accessibility of Starcraft knowledge to the masses?


[image loading]
DogSPA being a good guy and simply siege expanding




[image loading]
A bust waiting to happen




[image loading]
What's going on in here ?


The cheesy attack takes out 2 tanks and a few marines, but the goons are forced back by the tank on the high ground.


[image loading]
4 fact


DogSPA would like to mention that this is not a cheesy 4 fact at all. It is simply a response to a 2 gate opening followed by a bust attempt.


[image loading]
An expo AND 2 dts ? Ridiculous




[image loading]
imba




[image loading]
No marine in there




[image loading]
wowowowow manner dt




[image loading]
mines finally complete and DogSPA is able to block the ramp




[image loading]
but Pholon has dealt significant damage to our hero




[image loading]
ramp dt dies, manages to mine drag an innocent marine




[image loading]
No scvs were hurt in the making of this screenshot


At this point, DogSPA is entertaining the idea of leaving the game, but, upon realizing that this was the dramatic moment in the movie where the hero is battered down in a seemingly impossible situation, he decided to carry on for all that is good and sacred.


[image loading]
Pholon cheesing his natural




[image loading]
Pholon in the process of cheesing his third




[image loading]
Meanwhile....




[image loading]
so close...




[image loading]
A small victory for the good guys




[image loading]
before




[image loading]
after




[image loading]
Shortly after




[image loading]
Yes, those hts died




[image loading]
Yes, those probes died




[image loading]
2 more hts taken down by the forces of good




[image loading]
The last stop for the DogSPA train


DogSPA has regained some confidence in this struggle following these vulture raids.


[image loading]
There are 3 dragoons in this picture




[image loading]
Another attempt at raiding the third




[image loading]
The forces of Sauron are swift to escape this time




[image loading]
Pholon gears up for another attack




[image loading]
The forces of DogSPA make a stand




[image loading]
delicious




[image loading]
What's that at the top of the screen?




[image loading]





[image loading]
Pholon was disqualified for not typing "gg" properly




So there you have it. The replay cannot be made public as it would compromise my sources for DogSPA sanctionned games.

Terran is bullshit, at least Pholon won the moral battle.

To be honest, Pholon should't garner any sympathy after opening with 2 gate into dts. Good on Dogspa for vanquishing protoss cheese.

Wow, I thought the third goon was blatantly obvious from looking at the mini-map.
