I love it when an old classic is posted, and I can actually remember watching it when it was new.

Awesome game. Best PvP I've ever seen.

Chobocop: Are you suggesting V-tec doesnt require insane amounts of skill that most people cannot even begin to dream about? Because if you are, you are wrong. I havn't played it seriously in about 2 years, but I am almost 99% sure I could still take anyone here.


he's right.
i dreamed about V-tec last night. needless to say, i have to do the laundry today.
And this hot potato has vanished into thin air.

this was a great game. it was a KT KTF game if I'm right... I remember cause rage was (or went) like 0-7 in his group and this was like the closest he got to winning a game
Chuck Norris owns the greatest Poker Face of all-time. It helped him win the 1983 WSOP holding just a Get out of Jail Free Monopoloy card, and a green #4 card from the game UNO, against an AAA KK flop and his rival folding AK after Chuck raised him ALL-IN

Both players played very bad... one cannon placed closer to the nexus, could've saved it from the dts, even if it's started after he saw the other did not protect it, instead he waited for the observatory to finish and an observer to come out, which took more time and he lost the nexus.


Well obviously that's not what the pimp part is about. Kingdom did screw up completely against those early DTs.

The other player knowing that he has to hold 1 attack, instead of getting more cannons, built zealots(just wtf?)


He was probably a bit short on gas after making continuous DTs out of 2 gates. 2/3 zealots are pretty good against mass probes as well.

Show nested quote +
not to mention he moved his probes back and forth without any real purpose other than losing them to the dragoons, without doing damage.


I think his purpose was mainly to hold him off a bit while new troups were being produced.

Of course his micro and choices were far from perfect and he could have defended, but to have such a comeback you need imperfect play (just like in the famous Boxer/Joyo game). You've gotta give credits to Kingdom's flawless probes/goons micro. Esp the probes. One slight mistake and it was over. I actually think most other pros would have failed, except maybe Reach/Ra.


I agree he had top notch micro, but the thing that spoiles it for me is that the whole situation was generated by mistakes.
I'll call Nada.

When the DTs came I was thinking Hmm kingdom's gonna make awesome goon block the dts fron entering his base but O NO he did not. Then I thought he's gonna prevent the dts from killing the nexus and O no he did not. When the nexus poped I was going haha this game is GG already lol but O no he did not GG. Then mass probeline and goon charging and "O he didn't just do that!" Then I saw mass cannon field "He can't break that! W/ 3 DTs n 2 zlots! No waii!" I don't know what happened next, it was surreal, I saw some probe surrounding the cannons and zealots DTs turning into blue flames. As the dragoon glided away in an elegant grapevine it shoots out the cannonball that poped the last flaming flower. Kingdom was inside! While he was at it I was counting the time before kingdom pops a GG but he didn't pop a GG. Each time a goon comes out of that gateway I thought kingdom lost, but those 2 goons refuse to die[O here's pops out another goon! O BLUE PROBE BLOCKS IT hAHAHAH RAPED! Blue juice spilling everywhere!]. They just kept fighting and dancing, picking a probe there and popping a goon there and wiggling out of zealot's way. Then finally I saw his opponent's probe count and I think to myself, kingdom's won. And when last yellow probe blow up w/ a whine, and two fat GGs on the screen... 2 blue survivor probes smiles at each other and walked into the ever lasting sunset...
^^

That was hell of a game, all the excitement and tention! Who cares if it's not "pimp" or "uber micro technique". Think about the arbiter recall game of rA...
Life is run, it is dance, it is fast, passionate and BAM!, you dance and sing and booze while you can for now is the time and time is mine. Smile and laugh when still can for now is the time and soon you die!

well then im terribly sorry we all misunderstood ur cocky half assed attention whoring for something it wasnt.
Yea that looks just like Kang Min... amazing game sense... and uses mind games well, but has the micro of a washed up progamer.

Yeah wtf assholes. I already had seen this game and was just enjoying it and skimming reactions when some people are like pfft, nothing special. Please honkies please. If you didn't twitch an eye, have baffling thoughts in your head, or at least get blood pumping a few paces faster, you are a fuckn corpse.

Like the fourth time I've watched this now, I love this game. :O

It wasn't only the goon micro that was impressive, for example putting his probe next to Rage's gateway to stop the goon from moving out might well have won him the game...


Also, did you catch when the goon count was cut to 3, and he wiggled out that 2 zealot 14 probe pinch and he did the goon trap earlier in the game with the 1st Rage dragoon too. Then the second dragoon came out and he lost his weak goon to it before killing it. Then the 3rd dragoon that came out got probed hardcore... How stylishly Kingdom. Probe God.

Can't believe some people are just so annoying. "Oh it's so normal and nothing special".
Yeah? Find me one other progaming game like that one. Goon Dancing like a fuckn Champ.

awsome game, wtf is up with people saying nothing special. Who expected kingdom to win when he lost his nexus, quite incredible in my opinion.

Haha, why does this offend you so much? Calming down seems to be your best solution right now. As for me, this topic has officially been JLIGd ^_^


Probably offends him because you're being an arrogant dick.

"V-tec players" are NOTHING SPECIAL and you seem to bring it up time and time again. I've played v-tec, easily one of my favorite UMS games, since about '99 or so, back in the good ol' days of templars, cloaked kerri's, and recall, all the way through techniques/evolution, and played in the east op channels (that they kept changing the name of), and everytime I'd play with those people(I forget most names, but brittney, gambit, come to mind), it was pretty consistent; they were terrible at the game of SC itself (all were BGH/moneymappers), but extremely good on one single UMS map that they had the warp timing and fog of war timing down pat(and even then, I'd still beat them just fine). Good micro, sure, but NOT FUCKING SPECIAL at all. They simply played the shit out of the only game they knew how to play, and thus, were fucking good at it, but that's it. I honestly don't ever want to hear you overglorifying them ever again, ever. You're not special because you played V-tec, and no one gives a shit.

Haha amazing. I would have most likely rage quit after my nexus died. Very impressed he was able to turn that into a win!
I admire your commitment to being *very* oily
