How can you play once or twice a year and run through D/D+ players like that? I can't even get out of fucking D...
I hate you.
|
Oh it's because i played alot back in the day...But stopped like 1 ish year ago i got up to about C+ on iccup and it's not due to mechanics but due to my ability to discern what to do which i def don't do in this game...I just don't scout don't really care and do a build which i thought would spice things up. Just a fun game i thought to share.Toss is an off race my main was zerg just for the note.
Anyways D players this late in the season are usually those who would be d winning like 1/3 of their games
My hand really cramped up during his game lol

+ Show Spoiler +Lol at making 9th probe before pylon then canceling... watching it now Also lol at chasing probe around your base while 2 on gas 1 idle worker and horrendously late pylon :D LOL you need SKILLS to trap a probe like that.. I saw it coming and thought no, he's not gonna OMG HE IS LOLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL. Your build is kinda nuts... standard gate gas... cyb before first zeal, straight to legs and a forge, all off one gate with no scout. If your opponent was anything but terrible you would have been in big trouble by around 4-5 minutes. And then 5:20 a nexus :D you have balls that is for sure. I suppose the fast citadel put the fear of god into him camping until he gets obs? Oh REAVA........ can't believe he lost that T.T his shuttle just sauntered off when he needed it most. Fairly epic no transfer on the go... and I can't BELIEVE he dropped his reaver in possibly the ONLY spot where ALL THREE cannons could hit... amazing. Was going to comment on the fact that your using cannons to defend vs reaver but you decided to limit yourself which I thought was kinda cool and the fact that he just did THAT LOL? totally justifies them. Cannons>Reaver. 9 minutes and he's at you with a lotta goons and your zeals not looking too hot. I can't believe you pull this back/survive more than a minute longer. Ah the old retreat-even-though-I'm-winning-classic-maneouvre-or-however-you-spell-it There goes another reaver to zeals even though he has shuttle -_- omg another reaver to cannons.... doesn't he know they outrange cannons? he lost the shuttle as well o.O haha love the way his shuttle comes in after you totally surround and destroy that unprotected reaver at his nat.. that's like the 6th.. 7th? he's lost :D ANOTHER of his trademark reaver drops, this time he just decides to suicide the shuttle+reaver straight off without even attempting the unload... The double reaver drop at 6 I thought another suicide mission? But no! He retreats his shuttle from the cannon fire just before it dies and unloads two reavers, which then proceed to walk into cannon range presumably because they have no scarabs or just misclick, instead of just shooting the damn thing (only one cannon shooting at one reaver, both reavers within range of cannon) he freaks out and tries to run away, but his reavers freak out? on each other and one dies to the cannon.. Then the other reaver is shooting from more reasonable location (for the first time in teh game and possibly his 9th/10th reaver? but somehow still manages to lose the shuttle to the cannon the reaver is shooting. Oh man connection gone that sucks. GG Kinda funny game.. your opponent suicided SO MANY reavers + shuttles it was hilarious.. as a result you managed to survive and get some kind of army on the go at least.. Looked like he had quite a number of goons at his natural and with those, the successful (for once) reavering of 6 o clock and him taking 9 I'd say if the game had continued you probably wouldn't have survived much longer.. Then again you were refusing to build what is commonly regarded as the staple of PvP, and playing for the first time in nearly a year with your offrace. GJ and GG lol.
Oh on a side note if you look you have 1337 gas when you drop :D
Hey where did you get this recording program from? I'd definitely like to try making some fpvods...

this sums up my feels towards this blog

he's on another level. I think he's playing while high on speed
nice game btw
|
I would say iccup splits into D level then into C/C- then into C+/B- where most poeple can get to if they play all day then into B then into B A-
Most people who get into those slots can easily with some practice and learning the new maps and update into the strangely can fall back into those slots in a day or so. Which is why i didn't play all those destination games ionno wth that map is lol i hate playing blind.
|
that is some lowwww ass apm lol
|
Ionno what apm that is it's mostly just inaccurate mouse work probably hoving between 100-125 I hate apm spam i've never found it to have much of a point just learn building timings and you don't need to check every sec units on the other hand is important but when you really push it you tend to spam less and micro more if that makes sense probably be more accurate if i wasn't set on 2200 dpi.
You don't need high apm to get into C hell kwark is proof of it in B with like 150 apm
Just learning to use Shift alot helps like when your trying to get a new worker to a mineral patch you can select as many workers as you want hold shift click a mineral patch only the idle ones will go to that patch the rest will continue what they are doing.
|
I honestly can't believe your opponent was D+.
|
He was like 22-20 or some random shit lol D+ isn't hard this late in season
|
He suicided lot of reaver which was lulz
|
Holy zealot spam, batman!
Unconvensional. I enjoyed it.
|
They are both protoss. Adds a rank or two.
|
Did you also handicap yourself to use only mouse?

The cursor moved to the archives. A click. Six different options stared at me. Hastily, I pressed the icon displaying two lightning bolts. Realizing my mistake, I quickly cancelled my decision. Who in their right mind would research something called "Psionic Storm" over _MIND CONTROL_?? Silly, indeed. Purposefully, I added four more cannons to my photonic fortress. A sense of security and contentment filled me inside; I was impenetrable. The available forces were ordered to attack in my opponents general direction. I sighed in relief. A faint smell of victory was in the air..
|
I totally love your first few minutes of not spamming I thought that only I don't find spamming fun haha
|
I couldnt watch more than 5 min...watching D- people play is no fun...
|

Acct name on iccup? You probably center gate every game and play only D players. Big deal.

meh I've been struggling zvp a LOT in the D ranks since I started again... made a P account and now I have a way better win % against P. Sucking vs T though, hah dont understand that matchup at all ;x
|
The first suicided reaver was really, really stupid. It only killed like 2 probes with the one shot it made.
lol the third reaver didn't do anything and just exploded.
wow, he tossed you a shuttle for free.
|
LOL @ his reaver drop. holy fuck. >_> what program did you use? i like using fraps but its so gb heavy.
|
Just checked 200 apm from him 100 apm from me obviously mine was spent more wisely lol poor reavers he would have demolished me if he was aggressive and would drop his reavers out side is base behind goons and attack

Yeah I'm curious about what program you used like some others here...it looks very nice.
|
very nice game, sorry to go offtopic but im curious to which program you used to make that vid

Camstudio recording on another hdd uncompressed. Then encoded to x264/AAC with MeGUI 1280x960 30 FPS CQR/CBR of 18
|
How come you went so Zealot heavy? Or were you just messing around?
Anyway, interesting game to say the least. Your opponent did some horrible mistakes, but I still feel like you allowed him to do more damage then he should have. But since I am the worst player in the history of StarCraft, my opinion does not amount to much.

For every mouse click you pressed instead of pressing a hotkey, I flinched

|
I flinched alot actually. Everytime the reaver died I wanted to kill myself because of how pathetic it was.....
|
Don't blame you i nearly cried for the guy when some of his shuttles just went pop shuttle speed did not do him well because he couldn't control it.
|
It didn't even seem like he tried at all. And to say he's korean....what a shame
