UPDATED WITH PICTURES

Ok, when it comes to playing SC, I'm goddawful. I struggle to win on at all, so I just play for fun. I've never even won a game on ICC before, until today!

I haven't played on ICC ranked for a few months last time I gave up when I reached 0-8. I expected no different today and on my first game was a PvT on Python.

He opted to go fast dropship and dropped 4 vultures into my main killing 10-20 probes. Luckily my nat had just finished.

[image loading]


Then I expanded to the bottom corner expo, soon after, he sent a large force there which didn't kill it but it did kill my army which had gone to defend it. Eventually I mopped that up.

[image loading]


Later I prevented him from expanding to top right with 2 speedzeals.

Eventually my arbiter tech kicked in and my first 2 arbs were out with hardly any energy. My army composition was around 4-5 goons, 15 zeals, 2 temps. (I was imitating Pusan on a much smaller scale.) I sent my obs to the middle and saw he had a huge wall of tanks and vults, no turrets. Therefore I sent everything in, tried to stasis but I don't think I had any energy. He didn't even have a SV yet most of my army died, I had like 3-4 zeals left that had just rallied.

Victory?
Then something strange happened he just said GG and left. How strange.

(Forget the low skilled stuff, I am really quite shocking.)

So I've been sucking complete balls at SC lately. I'm a Z user, and I need to practice my ZvP. We should play a few games sometime. PM me.

Maybe he just didnt have time to complete the game...
I'm taking whatever coverage I can get, because frankly, I'm busy working on this million dollar deal at my job. Early retirement is a good thing brotha man. - MessengerASL

Get Irfanview for the .pcx files.

And maybe he thought that after killing himw ith such a small army you probably had a monster army left and was going to wipe up and own him

Congrats on your first iccup win ^^
I've seen a lot of people say gg and leave when they've clearly not lost, they must just think they're miles behind for some reason.

Cheers for the responses and Irfanview, it works a charm.

Well yea I've added the screenshots, the other guy was low on remaining minerals but he still had a sizeable army and high money on him. Whilst I had a few, to be honest when he said GG I thought he wanted me to GG cos I basically lost until I got the points

Na, I approve of that sentiment.

I hate when I say gg and they don't say anything, I stay in the game and be as big of a prick as I can, making Extractors at every conceivable location until he says gg back like a civilized person.
