Kill my opponent on abyss only to leave him with a single orbital and an scv, me with 13 thors and seven minerals and no orbitals. Kills me with blue flame hellions after three hours of me trying to find him.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Bad streak on the ladder last night, final game was PvZ on Xel Naga Caverns. He failed roach aggression against my 1gate expand, and transitioned to mutas. I was ahead the whole game, deflected his muta harrass with ease, and had 4 bases including the gold. Took out his 3rd with zealot warp in from warp prism, and just marched my big blink stalker/immortal/sentry army and took out his gold and then his natural.

So by this point his only base was his (mined out) main, and I'd just blunk my stalkers and taken out his last 3 mutas. Then my laptop overheats and shuts down

So fucking annoying because I was gonna end the night on a good note, and doubly infuriating because my opponent should have bloody left the game 5 minutes before.

Oh god you have no idea how often this kinda shit happens. Which is probably why a lot of pros use some hotkey other than C for Morph Corruptor. It's just too close to V, and the penalty for misclicking is just too high.

I play primarily with grid hotkeys, with only a couple of alterations, so there have been many occassions as zerg attempting to morph banelings only to harmlessly detonate the ones I currently have (Z being the hotkey in grid both for morph baneling and baneling detonate). Quite a FML moment, and it's happened on more than one occassion, sadly.

Diamond terran, just go in for 3 games where I do the worst decisions and macro I've ever done. I got supply blocked at 60 in one game and got to 1000 minerals before I noticed so GG'd then the game after didn't scan and got seriously fucked over by banshees which also mucked up my macro. I'm not playing anymore for a good few hours as I'm not in the right mindset and I'm usually 50x better than that.

Researching hallu instead of WG... another painful moment. Somehow I still won, though. Pushing with 4 hallu'd immortals worked wonders.

1. Baneling busted a protoss, had a fair amount left, was going to kill all the probes, clicked on the nexus

2. Went up to about 22 supply without building a spawning pool against a terran =D

I was on 3 base vs 3 base against a Terran. I had like 5 Hts 4 colossus and a bunch of gateway units, unfortunately I pushed while forgetting to research psi storm. What's worse is he had like 5 ghosts and completely missed his emps on my HTs, I ended up having to warp 5 near full energy HTs into Archons in midst of the battle. I lost, obviously.

I went for a standard PvZ forge fe into stargate on Tal'darim altar, only problem was I researched air weapons +1 instead of warpgate research. My Warpgate research ended up finishing at about 10:30, which forced me to produce a ton of units out of mere gateways for the longest time. For some stupid reason I managed to win the game by decent stargate harass and pumping out colossi while taking a 3rd. I guess it wasn't 100% terrible since I was going for stargate units anyway, but definitely embarrassing. This was a high diamond game on the KR server btw.

During a live casted game in the quarterfinals of a tournament I lost to 3 gate robo (1 base) play on close positions.

I spotted the observer (which appeared to walk up my ramp) and I immediately went into fire drill mode trying to limit the damage the dt rush was going to do to me as I had no ebay yet.

It didn't occur to me until 20 seconds later that I was really getting immortal busted and my 3rd and 4th rax and extra bunkers were too late to prevent the inevitable loss.

FML? Because not 2 minutes earlier I had scouted 2 gate robo and no expansion with a reaper. It didn't occur to me that the protoss couldn't afford an early robo, dark shrine, and still not die to the 2 barracks poke.

lost a couple of games in a row and was now playing a zerg. I scouted a 15 hatch, but apperently he canceled and suddenly he crushed my wall with banelings. I just sat there for a couple of second and feeling the anger inside. Suddely i hit my screen with my fist and I wanted to kill someone. My screen almost fell out of the window, not that it really matter because it was already broken with flesh of my knuckles on it. TT
