Protoss is really annoying

So there was a game played where the Protoss did the following:
1)DT Rush
The Terran countered as he had 3raxed for a marine medic timing push and thus beat off the dts.
2)Reaver drop with DTs
The most despicable thing ever. You can't kill the dts with vultures as there's a reaver in the way, and tanks/marines will die to dts or the reaver or both.
The Terran had expanded (2base to 2base) so he was able to save most of his scvs. But his production was crippled as the Protoss continued to ferry DTs, zealots, and dragoons into the Terran base.
3)Zealot/DT drop into the mineral line
really annoying, but repelled by turrets
4) Sneak expansion in far off corner on Python
Gee whiz.
5) Counter enemy push at your nat by recalling with an arbiter that you got off one base. Photon cannon your nat and base to hell.
The Terran lost all his factories, supply depots, barracks, and a lot of scvs. The protoss lost his only mining base though, and the Terran had such shitty macro that he was able to sneak an expo and make a very unbreakable contain (turrets, tanks, depots, mines, bunkers)
6) Send shuttle to piss Terran off by harassing his expo with DTs.
7) Try to break contain and fail miserably.
8) Harass Terran contain with goons
9) try and fail to drop DTs again
10) Cannon the fuck out of your hidden expo so that Terran has to waste time sieging and unsieging
11) almost break the contain but foiled in the nick of time by Terran reinforcements
12) give up after an hour long game after being as homosexual as possible with protoss.

gahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

You can't complain about protoss gayness when you're doing terran gayness. 3 rax timing push? WTF?

I think that protoss is to be commended. He should lots of exciting play You just expect him to charge into siege tanks instead?

Speaking of annoying Protoss, I played one guy who kept suiciding his zealots to kill off expansions, while expanding more or less undefended pretty much everywhere (which were promptly killed). I should have gotten lurkers sooner, but bleh. You figure at some point he realizes trading expansions means he's going to lose when you have a few more than him. He followed that up by turtling hardcore since he was so far behind... if I weren't confident in my defiler usage now, that game might have dragged out into a long win for him since he was starting to try to mass archon/reaver (I manged to slay all his archons before a single reaver popped though, fortunately). So annoying.

he dt rushed me first. Then I scanned his nat and saw he had an undefended expo so I sent my troops to attack. He had like two dts guarding his base so I took them out and all the probes at the nat. He sends shuttle with reaver + 2dts into my base and just fucks me over.

So what you're saying is that you countered everything he did, won the game, and you're still complaining? He's being annoying for using all the units protoss has as best he can to defeat a Terran who put him into a "defend from timing push-into-contain" situation? Aren't you, like, overreacting a bit?
Nobody ever reads signatures of people like me, do they?

I play similar to that. When Bisu does it, it's gosu harass. When we do it, it's annoying gay bm noob shit, amirite? Using tech units like reaver/ht, and expensive units like dt, are always gambles. To micro them properly while macroing can be tough. It's part of the game and sure it's annoying - but that is why it succeeds. Play like that is designed to throw you off and slow you down bit by bit, it's guerrilla tactics not blunt army vs. army confrontation. It's called a strategy game for a reason.
Peace~

They are complaining whereas their cheese are still the gayest. Fucking sore losers.
