Ever had a game where you were just outplayed in every way? Where even if you corrected your mistakes you'd still have been walked all over?

Yeah I just had one of those. It sucks. It makes me want to quit but I know a day later I'll be back playing or at least thinking about playing.

Feel free to tell your humiliation stories or better yet post replays.

My one? I just went up against a terran who knew how to play. I'm barely a D toss because I never get the time to play but I have a rough idea of what to do and of build orders, I got owned. I failed to stop harassment, I lost probes left right and center, he cought and raped my probes while trying to expo like 5 times and the final humiliation was a push that even if I had all my expo's up I doubt I'd have been able to break it. ouch.

About 3-4 years ago, when all the stuff I could do were fast dt and dt drops, me and a friend got 1v2'd by some guy.

I don't have the replay, but then again, even if i'd still had it I wouldn't post it.

EDIT: what the hell at all the people beaten by girls
SonuvBob: Yes, the majority of TL is college-aged, and thus clearly stupid.

G-d its hurts to admit it... I..uh... got beaten by pure scouts as zerg. Try to imagine a scenario where this could happen, I bet you're thinking like maybe he sniped some ol's and his advantage compounded and the zerg just got slowly overwhelmed? WRONG, he massed two control groups of the suckers, expanded to 4gas bases and rolled my HYDRA army...I didn't play again for 6 days...

I had the opposite today... I dished out an iccup humiliation for once. xD

I got about 70% of my probes killed by a 4/5 pool and still went on to win.

I went 12 pool to someone that went Random. I scouted that he was terran and was going 2rax academy. I put up 3 sunkens and made some zerglings while stalling for my mutas to finish. He steamrolled me with his MnM army. His APM was 250 with 66% select and 0% hotkeys.

My first game back on iccup after not playing for 2 seasons was on Medusa and I got cannoned from behind on the cliff. I kept playing using my natural and a quick 3rd... then I got rolled over by +1 speedlots.

i always find it amazing when people can play really well and not use any hotkeys.

can you imagine moving a 150 supply army around the map without any hotkeys?
you wouldnt feel that way if it was *your* magical sword of mantouchery that got stolen - racebannon

i once lost to a guy 0 - 12 after going 4 - 0 against him the day before.

In the end, I sat there totally depressed. My opponent figured me out, i was powerless to do anything.

To the OP. Your case is not that bad. The Terran was clearly a few ranks above you, it's not humiliation if you lose to a superior player.
Humiliation is getting owned by some east noob after 30 mins of cursing back and forth.

LOL your opponent studied you and that was the end of that. I've had this happen to many times as well. That's why its never fun to keep playing the same people imo.

Edit: Or actually it's not bad but its more like a situation of being able to outsmart that person.

I think this is the sign of a truly great player.

When I run into those korean zergs at the beginning of the season that kill me with straight up 3 hatch muta...with the muta. I usually lose faith in myself for that day and do something else. This has happened many times.

As for a specific game...probably when I was new to starcraft and played toss. My friend set up a game on peaks (and I thought I'd put up a fight), and he ends up doing that build that Bisu did to Pokju (2 gate in opponent's base w/ manner pylon). I was stunned because that wasn't even his main race, and it's probably the most humiliating to lose with your opponent proxying you IN YOUR VISION and causing havoc at the same time in your mineral line.

This sounds like something I would do...Just b/c I hate hotkeying with terran. But my hotkeys are nowhere near 250 with terran unless i was stoned.
