Couple days ago got a clean 15 hatch, easily blocked his early push and also his bunker harass crap and start to get my 3rd. Everything find and dandy, I'm basically up 2 bases now. I never lose to terran after this (literally, have not since the patch)
My wireless mouse runs out of battery. Being in college, I have no batteries. I run out of my dorm asking for batteries. None. I decide my lead is big enough to win with my laptop just clicking around and stuff.
I play the rest of the time with like 20-30 fucking apm at best. He does a hellion drop and a biomech push at the same time. Somehow with my grandma like apm, I have to:
a. make drones run without packing them into a single line
b. send small group of roaches after hellions
c. divide my army into two so i can sandwich the incoming push
d. target banelings at rines
e. surround with lings
f. FF thors with roaches
g. magic box mutas
h. inject larva
.
.
etc.
Yeah not fucking happening but I try. I manage to get the bling targeting right but I fucked up the roaches so they walk to point blank range without spitting at all, i pressed S on my mutas a bit too early so they end up stacking, and my lings were way ahead because i couldn't click the rest of my shit fast enough. Drones didn't split well. My remaining army melts to that. By the sheer easiness of 5szzzzzzzz i manage to kill the rest of his army with lings and even do a little workers killing in his base with my lings.
I limp along the rest of the game gimped at 0 pt bronze apm and just slowly die a horrible death as I fail to fight off his drops, he creep killing, and overall ability to play.

banshee kill all his prob, see he was rush HT,
I through he was a noob, so I just make mm to his base.
But he got 7 HT strom my army, also has decent number of zelot and stalker.
I found he has a hidden expandtion

Was playing a tournament at a lan... Didnt even notice that the previous person using the comp had switched attack to T for whatever reason.... Untill I got attacked... I paused and changed it back.. Well after it was to late to come back... Should always check that.
|
I played the anti-FML tonight. ZvP on meta. Did a fast expand and when I knew he was 4 gating I tossed down spines and said i got this, easy hold. He shows up and I realize I only have 2 spines and 10 lings....fml. So I start spamming lings and run into my main, toss down about 6 spines.
He continually pressures me on 1 base so i know im screwed as he had likely expanded, i finally break his siege inside my main and mass up some mutas and get my speedlings scouting and wtf he hadnt expanded. After winning I send him a pm as to why he didnt just walk around my spines in my main and go to my tech on the other side.
about 10 minutes later he says "i just looked at the replay, and I hate my life, it was over and i gave it to you" and my response was "yes, yes you did, thank you for the points"
there was 1 point where I thought he was going around to end it....but fail toss is fail.

Finished my opponents whole effing base and kept pumping marauders and only had 2 marines off 2 barracks. Only to find that my opponent had a single void ray hidden close to my base and he took out my marines barracks and command center and then was thoughtfull enough to supply block me enough to get the time to kill off almost everything before I could make more units.

I was demoted to Plat because I switched races to Zerg. However, I took a break from Zerg and went to protoss for a while. I was on a 14 game winning streak. On the 15th game, I knew that my opponent was going VR and he was turtling with cannons. I decided to get blink stalkers and surround my base with a few cannons. VR micro + stalk vs stalker's bad range made it impossible for me to kill the VR and he kept harrassing my pylons. I was finally able to kill the VR when he overextended himself and I used blink. I decided it was time to attack. He had no expo when I had 1. I easily destroyed his frontal cannons. He had no more VR or and good ground units. He had 1 cannon left by his stargate. I had about 14 stalkers in his base. I then spot 2 carriers. Only two carriers but it was able to annihilate my stalkers with its range and fleeing behind the cannons. 2 more carriers pop out and he attacks my base. Stalker's bad range and carriers good range easily defeated me even with blink.

beating some good people in a tournament and then losing to a silly 4 gate on a map that I never play. Good times:D

...Sent my overseer to Narnia when I morphed it to counter the Dark Templars...
I have no idea why I did that, must have mixed up her control group with my ambush zerglings...
|
A TvT on metalopolis, I make a habit of scouting with my first produced scv. I check close positions and see nothing.... and then I check the remaining positions and see nothing.
My star sense instantly tells me that it must be a lift to the gold bases. I take all my marines and half my scv's to go kill his gold steal attempt
But he wasn't at either gold base.
Ends up he was in close positions playing a totally standard game, I just didn't move my scv in far enough to see his CC. I lose to a three rax push. FML.

just had it happen. Rallied my scvs to another scv so it looked like there were mining at a quick glance but were just following one scv then noticed this 3-4x as there would be like 12 scv on one patch.would split.them again and it would keep happening because i never figured it out till the replay
|
I had a pretty major one happen to me just then in a 2v2.
I was protoss with a terran friend up against a terran and zerg. Saw they were going mass marine zergling so i throw down a robo bay. Turns out a minute later i accidently pressed the wrong hotkey and threw down another robo facility instead. By the time the marines got to my base i had 1 colossus just coming out without range as opposed to maybe 2 out with range upgraded. FML

Saw my MU, TvT on Scrap Station, and said to myself out loud, "Well, I better make turrets to detect the inevitable cloaked banshees..."
Guess what the one thing is I forgot to make

Just had one.
Was leveling my NA account (main diamond lvl SEA) and i was in gold NA at the time, playing against a terran. im scouting him and playing normally deciding my tech path 2 gates down atm, and i go to send a stalker to take the xel naga and what to i see? 3 bunkers blocking my choke on the highground in my base... fuuuu

Just had an epic ZvT on Shakuras Plateau as zerg. The game went for an hour because no matter what I did I could not crack his defenses. I sent wave after wave of every unit in the game (barring ultras and infestors) and after finally managing to crack his defenses, battlenet goes down for maintanance. He had no army left and not much base. He refused to GG even though he was clearly beaten and I had to suffer with a draw.
This is coming off the back of a bad run of losses as well.
FML.

One time I was playing a protoss player who sent his scouting probe to attack my spawning pool as it was building. I figured "No big deal, I'll just sent my first couple lings to take it out later." Later in the game, I was barely holding off his army in front of my expansion, continually macroing lings and roaches, when all of a sudden I couldn't build any more lings. "WTF?". I check to see how he somehow got some units up my ramp without me noticing only to see the lone, hero probe sitting there after killing my spawning pool 5 damage at a time.
i lol'd

You pull your workers when you see and incoming T drop and your army is out of position. You've also just used all your warpgates. As the drop starts to beat on your nexus, you realize you won't get there in time and don't have 400 mins saved.
You send your probes and all in after killing the drop, kill every building except a starport, and he flies it to the edge of the map on Steppes of War; where it is impossible to kill.
Then he sits there for 20 minutes telling you he's better than you, even after you killed his nat, main, and rebuilt base without ever reinforcing.
FML, then FMsideways

One day after getting out of the shower, I didn't feel like changing yet so i just sat down in a towel and started playing a game on Blistering sands ZvZ. I was home alone so wasn't too worried about being in the study. About 15 minutes into the game it's turning out to be a pretty epic match of Hydra roach for me against muta ling for him. Creep is literally covering the entire map, almost every base is taken, and then there's a knock on the door. I look out the window and see some boy scouts selling popcorn.They don't stop knocking for a solid 2 minutes which is an eternity in a long game in ZvZ. I make the decision to sprint to the door in my towel, and I take a brochure and say I'll order some later, and shut the door. As I sit back down I see him crossing the mid-plateau from a xel naga. I have a shit ton of larvae and minerals/gas so I just mash z on each hatch. As he comes in through the backdoor entrance and I hotkey my control groups, I feel someone watching me. I turn around and the boy scout kid and his mom ARE FUCKING STARING AT ME, AND THE TOWEL IS GONE. I still don't know what happened with the towel, I assume it came off when I ran back to the computer. Needless to say there was an incredibly awkward moment, followed by me saying wtf are you doing in my house. they didn't say anything and left.
I won the game too.

You sir a god amongst men, lol wtf are you doing in my house

Did a base trade, was one pylon kill away from victory because I sat back and just assumed I was dead.
On the flip side, I once played a zerg who decimated my army and base, while I got his, leaving him with about 6 corruptors and me with 1 carrier and no money. Then he did the dumbest thing imaginable and morphed to broodlords. I won the game literally with one unit and a huge mistake by my oponnent.
