also, please don't gg for your opponent or assume its over. its just plain badmanner.

kk I'll remember this from now on. I guess a mod can lock this since I've realized that the player's I've been playing either 1) have been lying to me about ICCUP rank, 2) didn't deserve that rank or 3) you're all right and all b.net(version1) players suck.


Stop trying to win people's approval. (also known as sucking up) That's not the case at all. I'm not good to even act like I know what the hell I'm talking regarding your gameplay, but what I can say is don't a jackass. I'm not talking about the gg at the end, I mean the start btw.

O, I see. The "u'll sooooooo lose I bet" I did that just to try to mess up his macroing when it wouldn't mess up mine since just reading a line of text can mess up your macro/APM spam. This made it so that I could make my build better and its chances of success better. It was a game where I messed up and forgot to ask a bunch of random questions right before I attacked like "where u from?" and " how long u been playin?" and other stuff like that.

edit: and as to the rest of your post(everything beforehand) is I really don't understand how I'm "sucking up" at all.

In Hungry Hungry Hippos there are no such constraints—one can constantly attempt to collect marbles with one’s hippo, limited only by one’s hippo-levering capabilities.

lol same. It really is quite a good word for it and makes us rushers sound like the smartest kids on the block(and the coolest when your toss )

Why would you do that? Are you desperate to win? I mean maybe if it was a tournament or something but that would still be pretty bad manner. Thats like playing golf with someone and shouting everytime they get ready to transition to their downswing. On top of that if doesn't help you practice your strategy as well, because the terran isn't giving you the best micro possible, and as a result you might be missing important flaws or weak points in your build that could be improved. Seems stupid for any game that isn't an important match; as well as pretty BM. Lol, I guess there is a reason why I don't talk to people after like the minute mark.

Lol, this thread is ridiculous.

"Look at this replay of me winning on b.net! Is my strategy INVINCIBLE or am I just AWESOME?"

And then it's coupled with the BM in game... Something tells me you wouldn't be so cocky after playing a day on ICCUP...

This.

Also pls posta replay where the terran who sees a ton of zealots(=2gate) pulls more than 3 scv-s to repair. I thought u would put the shield battery on the high ground. cant see this working if he is actually multitasking better.

Don't offensive gg.
you don't want to be humiliated every time you lose either. (Well not with this clearly invincible strategy, but when you try something else.)

well. this straegy works on b.net becouse the skill level of terrans out there is very very low. There are bad players on iccup also but this strategy will not work vs any decent player.

Because I didn't realize that this was that offensive. Sheesh, give me a break, I'm only 14 years old!

exactly. Although I've found plenty of players who are actually ranked at least C on battle.net.


And you know they are at least C because...?
But, 2 gate shield battery does do wonders against zerg! (Don't forget to bring probertos ~~)

Ya I tried it against zerg my self and I saw that the ovey was coming to my base as I was getting ready to position the proxy and I positioned it just outside his choke so that when he saw my base while he rushed lings in to it he wouldn't see the proxy and the proxy wouldn't see the lings.(game changing at times) It was a hilarious game and it ended with him saying "IDK what strategy you did, but it was good." It was a great game that i can upload if you want(no trash talk in this and it was after I read all the replies here) me to that ended in an epic and hilarious base race.

edit: did I mention he never saw the proxy the whole game?

"Could this be invincible? It beat the best players I could find on battle.net on a decade-old map. Is it the build or me that is totally kickass?"

=

"Yo guys I got this new technique where I enter a preschool and knee a bunch of kids in the face. Nobody there has managed to stop me yet."

Post-Replay Watch Edit: What the hell man? This is terrible. For one, you BM'd like mad. From the "lol I'll sooo bet you you'll lose" or w/e at the start to the "gg?" at the end. Not to mention how bad the terran was. When the big zeal attack came, he had 1 out of like 6 marines firing and didn't pull scvs to repair for like 20 seconds. Then when you broke through the wall, the guy makes a bloody tank. There's no way in hell you honestly looked at this replay and thought your build was invincible.

Thanks for kind of apologizing, it's good that you at least are owning up to it. That said, don't use your age as an excuse to act dumb... as the above poster said, stuff like this is the reason why so many people just judge younger people to all be idiots.
