So this is the next of my battle reports. This game is a little bit old being played a couple of months ago but someone on IRC wanted me to do it....sooo here it is.
The map was Empire of the Sun! One of the new proleague maps that will be used in the coming season. To give you an overview of the map itself, its kind of like a screwed up eye of the storm with some island expos. Heres an image of the map:
The game started out, myself as the Prideful Purple Protoss in the top left
Scaramanga spawned in the top right as the yellow terran with some typical terran QQ
I open up with some gentle 2 base reaver build while scaramanga goes the safe route with a siege expand
I lose my first reaver without doing much. As such i display my displeasure
Scara attempts some light harass on my third hitting a nice timing before my cannons come up but my army crushes it without too many probe losses
Meanwhile scara is going for a 4 base double upgrade turtle style
Scara's first push comes out and gets easily crushed by the might of my templar. Imbued by the spirit of jangbi i storm the living shit out of his tanks!
Time to carrier switch. Carriers are good on huge open maps right??? oh wait
While i was busy making bad decisions my second reaver managed to do much more damage than my first, completely shuttle down one of scara's expos!
Scaramanga comes out with his second push and sets up a contain at the ramp up to my natural expansion
Instead of killing my solo reaver, scara lifts his 4th base down to the natural of the 5 oclock base. Unfortunately my reaver doesn't lose track of cc's! Note my attempt to backdoor brag while my reaver cleans up another expo ^_^
That little reaver manages 24 kills before he's shut down by goliaths
Scara manages to put yet another scary push together, things are looking grim
My carriers were dropping left and right! aparantly cloaked wraiths are good when your observers AREN'T near your carriers
Somehow(through sick sick carrier micro) i manage to to fight back the push
Scara sends a push down towards my bottom bases
But i finally manage to clean it up (not after i lose another 4 carriers)
So, what happens when you lose a ton of carriers and most of your stargates to a push, MAKE MORE CARRIERS!
Surprise, carriers!
Having lost his only mining bases, scara comes out with his remaining units, but once again jangbi takes over, putting the final nail in the coffin!
GG!

Although, being konadora, its probably a custom map. At least he doesn't play katrina every game . Also, stop 12 nexusing every game.
