They want to play starcraft again. They know that I'm 'super good' (I can't make it to D+), so it should say something about their skill level. We want to do a 3v1, but even with their skill level, I think i'll lose, because of the economy of 3 bases to the economy of 1 is very disadvantageous. What map would you recommend this game be played on to help me stand a chance? edit: no fastest map, money map, or anything like that. It needs to be a straight up map.  | ||

I remember a famous game where a protoss player had a DA in a shuttle moving it to the other side, and a terran player was following it with a dropship, but the shuttle dropped the da and it mind controlled the dropship. Was that iron curtain? I think it, too, was a desert tileset | ||

Use some awesome macro based map like Andro where you can take 3 bases and an island | ||

they'll probably go like gate (supply block) forge 3x cannon (another supply block) so just play super greedy and then roll them (yes, you should be able to out-macro 3 complete noobs) they won't be able to macro decently or keep up worker production too just make sure there's like a no rush stipulation or something i recently played a 1v2 with two noobs and it was like playing a D/D- rank player | ||

You could also force them to play a gay map they have no idea of how to play (like Troy), but I can't think of any specific strat right now  Well, assuming your macro is good, you could straight up out-macro them... | ||

Try to find a way to take complete advantage of their inability to respond properly or quickly to the attack. As I said, reavers or storm drops, vultures with mines and tanks, lurkers and ling snipes (hit their main building with 24 lings focusing). | ||

You can either all out rush them or de up and tech rush them. Goal is just to not let their x2 econ get into full effect. Best for 3v1 would probably be: Colliseum God's Garden Andromeda Iron Curtain Zodiac I wouldn't suggest island maps though because this will allow them to freely tech up faster. And you don't want them to tech for free. You want them to play their standard slow crappy style and have weaker units. I would probably use some blizzard maps with more than 4 start locations too, like: Predators Chain Lightning Meat Grinder Hunters If they suck at scouting you can get some free bases up. Any maps where you can abuse the terrain would be good as well. So like if you chose terran on (6)winter conquest for example. | ||

On game one, andromeda, they worker rushed me.... AND FAILED. It was like 12 workers vs. 9 probes. I held it off easily, tried to do a forge fe (they were p, z, and t), but the worker rush through me off, and i lost because i am an inexperienced D player. I should have won. Game 2, they did the same thing, same map. They won this time. Game 3 on bgh. This one was really fun. I spawned at top left, and T spawned at top mid. I didnt want to kill him really fast (cuz we're friends rite?), like rush, but I went 2gate to be safe from the others. I attacked him to keep him on the defensive, but then they ran by with goons and zerglings, killed my expo. luckily, it was bgh, and i could have 5 gates pumping out units at this point, and pushed their lurker contain off with reavers and zeals and goons. I used DTs to kill the T tanks, then killed him. By this point, i had 180/200, attacked the P, who was spamming carriers, easily taken out by about 5 storms and a few goons. Then i Killed Z. This is the game I wanted. Then they left. Was fun. Thanks for the advice. | ||
