When I use hydras to clean up air units I just a-move somewhere to get them to start shooting ASAP.

In one case the "somewhere" I clicked was my high yield hatchery and all the enemy mutas flew away safely while I was shooting my own base...

Was roflstomping this Terran on Xelnaga. I had a maxed army and 4 bases and had denied his 3rd several times. Turns out he hid some starports with cloaked banshees. I had like 5 observers, but stupidly had them forward covering the map along with the watchtowers since I figured I could break any attack he could send if I saw it incoming. 8 banshees took out all of my nexus before the obs could make it back. Then I panicked and attacked into his siege tanks instead of calmly rebuilding and keeping map control. I wasn't even mad about that one really. Just had to laugh at how stupid I had to be to throw away a game that badly.

Playing on Steppes of War, other guy pauses immediately and says nothing. I try to get a response for about 30 seconds, and no reply. So I unpaused (what was I supposed to do?) and a full minute later he comes back and says "WTF? Why did you unpause?" I explained that he didn't say anything and that I'm not a psychic, and the game goes on.

Fast forward 5 minutes later, and I lose. That's right, I'm so bad at this game I managed to lose to a guy that I had a full minute of mining time advantage over. I double checked the replay and he actually was AFK, didn't even send his probes to mine before pausing.

FML.

played 2v2 with my friend today, ppvtt( we're the t's). He tells me beforehand to watch out for the cannon rush due to the large base and short distances. Of course, I scout around my base and find nothing. Going rine/marauder to atk and the next thing i know i see 5 cannons attacking my cc. T____T...checked my base once...but not twice

This has happened to me so much that i spend most of the early game watching my ramp / area just outside base to make sure to spot any sneaky probes.

I'm probably not the most paranoid Starcraft 2 player out there, but if I fail to scout another cannon rush I will be!

It was the final of a lan tournament in athens and i was playing against moutas, so we are playing on xel'naga caverns and i open with hatch at 15 after pool and then proceed to make a roach warren for def... i see his lings and banelings comming, i try to hatch some roaches and what do i see? 0 gas... that's right i forgot to get gas...

I would've lost anyway since i'm far worse than moutas but ffs it was the finals, ppl are gonna watch the replay... T_T

The other day I researched hallucination instead of warp gate tech and somehow didn't notice it.

Select gateways, spam G, nothing happens. Get rolled over by 4 gate push.

I lost about 5 games in the last few days because my PC kept bluescreening. I should have stopped playing but I wanted to see if I'd get promoted to diamond before I visited my mate so I could gloat.

Now my mobo is dead and I have to buy a new one. This laptop can barely browse the internet. Dammit. ;\

For me it's any time I'd be laddering at work and have to alt-tab or surrender/exit due to co-worker aggro.... especially when I was winning.

Suppose I could remedy this by, you know, not laddering at work.

The best FML's are when you look at your base and you realized you build like 3 engineering bays or something of the sort.

got utterly supplyblocked after that i build my base so tightly, that the SCVs couldnt go out from the mineral lines, and i didnt recognized it, however the game told me like 10 times and after that i could solve the "problem" with lowering the supplies. Then i lost. FML
after that i always lower them no matter what.

I was playing TvZ early in the morning, and I went for a blue flame hellion marine push. When I got to his base, I realized that... I researched 250mm instead TT_TT FML

RvT and I spawn as T, forgot which map. Send my first depot scv out to scout and he sees the start of a wall with a depot and rax with a techlab just starting and the second depot on the way. I guess reapers and start pumping marauders. I leave 3 in my base with another on the way and send 2 with a few rines to his base. I'm almost there when the first banshee shows up in my base...

Was playing a friend who beats me 2/3 times (PvT btw). Playing on the xel naga 1v1 map. I faked a stargate (killed it off after his scout died), thus getting him to get several vikings. Knowing that his ground army would be weak, I thought of pushing a little after my warpgates were finished.

From my robo facility, I wanted to make an observer just to see what he had while I was massing up an army. Instead I accidently made a stupid warp prism...and then I had the awesome idea of stalling my attack even more by waiting for 2 immortals so I could immortal drop.

I flew my warp prism with the immortals inside...vikings saw. one shotted my warp prism.

Worst FML in SC2 so far :

Me (T) vs him (Z) on Jungle Basin.

I reactor hellion, proceed to his base with 2 units. 2 queens blocked the ramp, my harass is already over. Then I expand. Few minutes later, some mutalisk destroy my unguarded depots, wandering scvs, and tech labs.
I then proceed to send all my army (marines tanks medivacs) to his base to end this right now coz I hate mutalisks. Medivacs are killed at middle map. I proceed to his ramp, siege my tanks, marines at front. Mutalisks kill my tank, couldnt protect them.
Then I charge desperatly my marines into his base (main ramp) and they all die to burrowed banelings.

I then proceed to ragequit.
