Prelude:

+ Show Spoiler +
So i play in Broodwarmaps.net open, awesome tournament, very different skill ranks.
After claiming a W.O. in round 1, (opponent no show even second time after we reschudle his time of choice T_T), in round 2 i play a guy i know from D Ranks Team League called LCC. No preparation for this match except with my good teamate Gorg. I hardly new maps too since its all new cool maps, but i didn' t check out the third one i was supposed to play on (only Melting Pot, Resonance II, last map Hazard Black i don t even look at before game(big mistake). Game 1 he goes some funky m&m start ( v ), i carefully own him with goon/zeal, aqnd later on some storms. ezpz. Second game i do my cheese strat, but do to wall-in i fail horribly. Third game i do some of the worst engages PvT has ever seen. You think 1a2a3a jokes are funny? i thought too, until i started playing PvT . I lose 2-1, and my dreams of playing with Sziky are crushed. Down the drain. I feel disspoint and go get some coffea, come back and check brackets, and to my surprise, (double elimination group stages) Sziky lost to trutaCz!! how stupid of me to think he was going to be in the winners bracket! ZvZ anything can happen. Feeling extremly reeleved, i procide to mass game the following week (1 week brake during different stage, vs , vs and finally vs . I get my game back. My mechanics are so much better. I wasn' t playing good until this week. If you don' t play at least 2 games a day to keep up the flow it gets bad.


But this battle report is none of that. Its of me vs Sas.Sziky

First map is Cross Game (2 player):


[image loading]
My first impressions on the game

[image loading]
He opens up 9 pool (gas trick to get extra drone):

[image loading]
I' m pretty confident i can make it to mid game cause i prepared for over and over walls for this map (gosu wall :D ) , he tests it and decides not to run by (no speed no need)

[image loading]
Scouting all good in the neighbourhood. Lair on the way, no more chogolings.

[image loading]
My cyber core was a touch late, i wanted to get second cannon at natural expo to be extra safe vs chogoling busts. Anyway early on, its a 2 player map, and i have muta feeling. Sziky (and zergs in general goes muta often on 2 player map, and higher level Zergs go muta vs lower levels player, so i double stargate with +1 air:

[image loading]
Turns out to be good choice, he is going mutal with toons of scourge

[image loading]
my micro not good, his scourge cloning is perfect, takes out my 6 corsairs but he lose same amout of mutal. (plus i don t do stack trick with probe :/ )

[image loading]
My +1 speedlots are ready, and i feel he has taken Fourth base. This catches him off garde.
(DIE HATCHERY, DIE!!) (FINISH HIM/IT!!)

[image loading]
Hatchery goes down ! yey i take out a base of Sziky, lose my lots, but it was worth it

[image loading]
Second corsair fleet, i move out, get an ovy, but instead of cfocusing on corsairs, to attack scourge, i fouces on second overlord.

[image loading]
Big mistake, he takes out 3 of my sairs and the mutal finish up the rest of the fleet

[image loading]
[image loading]
[image loading]
I move out again with lots + archon and 2 HT, and Sziky displayes micro show for enjoyment of all :D

[image loading]
Hello Hydra Train (CHUCHU). (obviously with speed and range and +1 range attack)

[image loading]

GG

Second game i do 3 gate goon, but mess up timings cause scouting drone gets in my base and does the boogie dance, distracting me.

Good games, Enjoyed a lot playing vs the #1 Foreigner of Broodwar.

I respect the fact that you were willing to make a battle report for a game you actually lost, its a rare event in the blog section. However, lasting 13 minutes vs Sziky and killing his hatchery, definitely worth it.
I like money. You like money too? We should hang out.

Nice battle report! Only one question, why not a replay? :/

4/5 for no replay.

Also, I liked some of the wording you used, for example

Turns out to be good choice, he is going mutal with toons of scourge
