Sure I have some games that are better than others, but yesterday's game took the cake. I don't think I've ever been so angry after a game of starcraft in my life.
First of all, the player was so mind numbingly bad that it took him for fucking ever to win the game. I'd much prefer to take a loss after 2 minutes because i fucked up control to a bunker rush. Sure i played like shit, but at least i got it over with.
but NOOOOOOO this player consistently blew and gave me more chances to get back in the game than imaginable. I think everything possible to throw me off my game occurred:
1) I was trying to get camtasia to record the game FP style, but i fucked up the record box, so it screwed up the color in an odd shaped box along the bottom 75% of the screen FOR THE REST OF THE GAME.
2) I lost sound in starcraft when i tabbed out and closed camtasia and hastily misclicked some audio setting. So, i'm playing mute
3) my opponent proceeded to bunker rush me THREE TIMES, because i kept thinking i built an overlord at 18/18 but i never did. once my overlord finished i was so pissed off at this point that i'd never built a gas
4) i figured that the only way to win would be to turtle w/ lurkers and rush for defilers. However, making 2 hydralisk dens doesn't help
5) on the same note, making 2 defiler mounds doesn't help much either.
6) my other tower computer fell down on the back of my keyboard cord midgame (i found this out afterwards) which explains why my G key stopped working. do you realize how hard it is to cast plague when you have to click on it every time?
God i was so pissed off that i grabbed a red pen and squeezed it until it exploded. Now my right hand looks like it just got done ripping somebody's heart out. if only that were true, i'd probably feel alot more satisfied.
it really pissed me off too because it destroyed my perfect record on ICCUP. obviously, that always happens eventually, so i'm kinda glad i got it over with. however, its obnoxious to have the loss happen LIKE THAT.

 sorry for you, but i feel like that 90% of the time play, because inevitably one out of two games gets me into that rage.

Amen to that.

This game is so cruel

I remember having a shitty game once. Was a PvP on Longinus, my PvP sucks so my friends who were obsing(game was one of those 1v1 play/obs games) were like "Mango is going to lose!!!" I went for 2gate goons but he went for 2gate zeals so he was in my base with 4 zeals while I had about 2 goons. I had to micro probes AND goons at the same time and it was really annoying killing off 2 zeals only to see 2 more coming.
I kept forgetting to hit 5d6d and make pylons but I managed to fend off his attack. Little did I know he expo'd and cannon'd it up so I couldn't really retaliate. What I did though, was make a 3rd expo(like a response to a 1fac CC build PvT) to counter it and made a crapload of gates. All of a sudden, he tries going for my 3rd expo, but his flank was so miserably bad I was able to destroy his force and go to his main and wreak everything.
His macro was so bad he had 140 supply while I had 200/200 when he tried to flank my 3rd expo. I go into his base and destroy everything. I don't see him GG'ing though, so I scout the middle expos.
I see he cannon'd the middle left expo so I try going up with my entire 200/200 army and he storms the fuck out of my entire force and my 200/200 army disappeared. I then thought "Oh fuck, game's not over yet" so I continued to macro and expand. What I didn't know was that he had another base at the mid right of the map and was cannoning up the top middle expo as well, but I was able to kill off the middle right main. At this point he's storm dropping me left and right and sneaking in speedzealots into undefended expos or expos building up to deny the expo. I was getting harassed so much I realized I had very little probes at every expansion and a small army, and his army goes and kills off my expos. I'm thinking now "Oh fuck, I lost?" but then I'm able to trap his army in the middle right main and killed off his entire army. ROFL!
I then managed to kill off the middle left expo(since he had nothing there to protect it) but I lost a lot of my army due to a DT blocking the ramp and him having thousands of cannons. He also used his probes to defend and I was left with about 4 goons, 8 zeals, an archon, and 3 temps. I then started to get my macro up again and finally went for Arbiters.
He started to turtle up the top middle expo and made thousands of cannons, blocked off the ramp with DTS and had like 5-6 HTs waiting. I was thinking "I can just recall into his base no problem and avoid all that crap." I didn't see that he started to make Dark Archons though, so I had my 200/200 army sitting outside his base and was ready to recall with 2 Arbiters. I run through behind and hit "r" and click on my force but I see the recall button disappeared. He mind controlled my Arbiters >_>
I had to make more Arbiters and wait for them to get enough energy then I attempted again but he Mc'd them again. I went for Reaver drops and made Carriers but he mc'd my Carriers and killed off my Reaver with storm. He mc'd like 5-6 of my Arbiters before I finally decided I'd hallucinate my arbiters and go in there with 20 hallu'd arbs so he'd have to choose wisely. I was able to get 2 recalls off into his base but lost everything since he just stormed it all. He then used his arbiter army to recall temps into my bases as a form of advanced storm drop.
It was about 50 minutes into the game and I was really getting pissed off XD So, finally, I get reavers and try marching up the ramp. With this distraction, I used arbs again and recall'd a good chunk of my force into his base. Since he wasted so much storm trying to kill my reavers, he didn't have enough to take down my force so I was able to kill off most of his army and then kill off the cannons at the ramp and march up. I had ADVL open so I checked the timer and saw "1:00:00." Yes, an hour long gay-fest.
._. Most horrible game ever. I went outside and threw punches in the air, threw my basketball at a wall extremely hard, and grabbed my dumbbells and threw them at an old, rusty rim I have in my backyard. So frustrating, gawd!!~

u said u were posting rep pack of your perfect stats on iccup?

RAGE!! RAGE INTO THE NIGHT!! Did you get a re?
|
the firetruck can't extinguish them all I guess T_T
|
Don't give re's while raging. Fucks up your play more and you worry more about winning/losing than playing well.

Ah, now I know your aka. Funny cuz you played a friend of mine and just trashed him and I was trying to help him analyze the replay, and I just came to the conclusion that whoever it was he played was just better haha.

That was an AWESOME story. I will now always have an example to point to when someone challenges me to describe how it "could get worse."
