I just played a ZvZ on scrap station. I open with a 15 pool 16 hatch, and my opponent opens with a 14 extractor 15 pool. I scout he's researching ling speed, so I get the same (I normally tech with lings anyway in ZvZ). I defend his early harass of speedlings with my slowlings and Queen, and then counter with about 20 speedlings. By the time I get to his base, I realize he teched to roaches. I noticed his roaches were guarding his natural, and also saw a single drone head to his natural. He was just now expanding, meanwhile my expo was starting to kick in with saturation. So I run past his roaches and kill off half his workers in his main. He went from about 26 workers down to 13. He killed my lings, but I was satisfied with my lead.

As I attacked his main, I noticed that he was getting a Lair. I figured he'd be going mutas, since a lot of Zerg players love to be the first one to get mutas. I decided to do the same. Meanwhile, I also expanded to the gold expo.

At around the 20 minute mark, I had three fully saturated bases, he only had two (and I significantly delayed his economy thanks to my lings). I had about 25 mutas, with lvl 2 attack, and about 70-90 speedlings with lvl 2 attack and lvl 1 armor. He had about 13 hydras and 17 roaches, each with 1/1. Just as I was about to go pick off his overlords and supply block him, then move in for the kill (as I was producing about 10 more mutalisks), he d/cs before any of the action starts. I took the win with no effort at all.

I watched the replay to confirm where our standings were. I had double his army, and double his income, with complete map control. I had this game. No question.

I start a new ladder game. About two minutes into it, I get PMed by my old foe:

Him:"Your [sic] so fucking lucky. My comp crashed. I was just about to come and destroy your noob ass. Lol."
Me: "Did you even watch the replay?"
Automated response: Player is ignoring you.

I shared my story with my current foe, a Terran player on the same map. It amused him. I then lost to his 2 base mass Thors. I was sad, especially because I was on four bases and had complete map control. Damn my poor scouting

I did GG like a respectable player, though.

I guess it's BM if you lose your main and keep playing

Iknorite? Because no one has ever comeback...ever. Especially in the low division that I'm in...

My favorite one all together was this guy i went TVP against (i was T) and he kept saying "gg"
at first i thought it was him admitting defeat so i tried to boost his moral and he said this

him: it's gg, you know what i'm doing
me: in your defense, i honestly don't, so just keep playing bro
him: come on, attack me right now. you know what i'm doing

he spams, "attack me" and finally says
him: oh you're so done now, my 4-gate is up, it's game over bro

then spams "gg" like crazy

i'm terran.... you NEVAR go 4-gate against a terran. yes it works on some maps with backdoor rocks and if the terran FE's with one rax but if a terran is going MM, not even medivacs, just early game MM, you NEVAR go 4-gate....

so i destroy him and also get some medivacs going on and his reaction was priceless

him: @#$%ing noob, can't even win a match straight up so has to use healing

other than that i don't get much BM. i did get a korean player's BM once which was interesting but yeah, other than this incident, not much BM XD but no really good manners either, i get a GG like once every 10 games ^^;

With a risk of divulging this into a strategy discussion, that's just not true, you can 4gate against Terran, MC and White-ra have done so quite commonly. There's no reason why you can't 4gate against Terran.

Me: I was in the other team dude, check it plz. I was team 1 you were team 2 :p.
Him: Oh fuck, I'm so tired of nooballies that I'm flaming the wrong guy now... Anyway my ally was a big fat noob.
Me: Guess so...

thought it was pretty funny.

Lol! Usually people who trash talk their own allies suck at the game. If not then they're just very rude and annoying individuals and they suck at life.

I had to sign up just to post this one:

ZvP on Shakuras Plateau

+ Show Spoiler +

The above is the after game chat

The below is the ingame chat - I want to add that I kinda regret the slightly racist (if anything) comment I made, and as usual, read from the bottom up.

If anyone wants to translate what he said at the start as well, that would be nice to know.

PvT.

So I scouted the usually 3 rax. So I basically jus FF him outta my base n while rush tech to colossi.

After the one game deciding engagement,

"God I cant wait for the colossus nerf, even retards can win with them."

I go back to check score.

34 Probes to 17 scvs. =D

Here is no doubt a good example of people listening to the words that Artosis and Idra are speakingg, but aren't actually hearing what they're actually saying- at the low levels there is SO much to improve than to simply blame losses on balance. Sheesh.

I could make water boil right now... After months of being in Plat I've been demoted to Gold!!

And honestly it's no surprise, the skill level has been rising a lot the last few months. The skill level of Plat two months ago is now the skill level in Gold. And as Zerg I find it too hard to deal with all the different builds and cheese you get thrown at you. I want to play an offensive and aggressive race (since I consider offense the best defense) but I don't like T and P.

Hi, first post, this is just what happened to me a few moments ago.

ZvT on desert oasis. He went quick vikings and I went for a baneling bust. I destroyed all his scvs and supply depots but he floated away two raxs, his starport and his CC to the island expanse. I then instead of teching up something to go kill him or doing anything remotely smart, I disperse my zerglings all over the map for vision and tech up for double nydus worms cause I figure he'll have ait turrets. He didn't. But he did see my nydus and just killed them. Then I decieded to do a drop with zerglings. He killed my entire army. Then he loaded up some his medvacs with upgraded MM and proceeds to flat out kill me. No defense, super high on minerals at the end, soooo dumb. And to top it off, he calls gg for me.

Immediatly alt f4 slammed my desk and stormed off only to stub my toe. Don't think I'll be playing again tonight blah.

How did he float to an island expansion on Desert Oasis?

There's no proof of association between the two.

mine was in a PvP, i was planning on going 3 gate expand but i noticed that he was going 4 gate, so i added another gate myself so i could easily defend his push.

his push ended up failing horribly so he starts calling me a nub for going lame ass 4 gate....

before i could reply with why i did it he quit the game.
