Super crazy macro ZvP on Twilight Fortress after early rushes killed our teammate. I had 6 bases total and was battling to deny his 6th and finally we destroyed eachother's armies while taking out his 5th nexus. His probes escape into his base, I suicide some ovies, see a bunch of carriers and tons of chronoed stargates. I had tons of resources and larva stockpiled, turned every single one into a corruptor. His carriers move out and are cleaning up my spotter ovies. There are only like 16 carriers, oh I've got him now! All my eggs hatch... wait that didn't sound right.... I look up at all the gas I had.... I had hit V instead of C and about 50 ovies were drifting towards the middle of the map.
It's supposed to be automatic but actually you have to press this button.

Now that's a great one. I was just going to add that probably 50% of the time I go to hit the pause button I hit surrender instead. I also am not sure why in the blue blazes they need a hotkey for surrender, but I've definitely been caught up in a zerg macro killing spree and hit S in the F10 menu and surrendered as well.

Still not realizing what certain hotkeys are. I also had one game where I lost because I more or less killed crippled my opponent, but I needed to expo to ensure his death since I was drained at home. I must have missed 'N' and ended up splurging the last of my money and I died when my probes were running cross map to get that extra 400.

Yesterday I played a ZvP (I'm zerg). He walled-in, with 3 cannons. Eventually busted in with banelings. He messed around with cute pheonixes but nothing serious. Eventually my zergling killed all his probes and his nexus is halfway down he types GGs, I get disconnected, I lost.

FML.
I hate the post below mine because it feels War3-ish.

Mine's kind of a mixed bag: I was losing pretty badly about 10 mins in when my opponent randomly disconnects. He messages me saying he tried to pause but misclicked surrender - a pretty big FML on his part, no doubt. The catch is he was fairly high-ranked in Diamond, whereas I'm similarly in Platinum, and the match-making system seems to think I'm super awesome at Starcraft and my past few games have been against top-10 Diamond players, and I've been getting destroyed >.>

It's good practice though!

Didn't happen to me, but the guy I was playing.

TvP on Dessert Oasis. I went for Void Rays after a 4gate opening and he went fast Thors. By time the 5-6 Thors got to my base with 10-15 SCVs and 20 marines, I sent my Void Rays to his base for a base race. I had an expo and my natural and I hid my stargates and fleet beacon at the left side of map.

Long story short, he was guarding his last two barracks with his army that I couldn't touch. I made him cancel his first attempt to build CC, the second attempt was at my natural. He fended me off but accidentally attacked his own CC with thors. Left himself with 180minerals, and I had just got my warp prism to rebuild on island. So I won, due to one attack misclick by him

ZvZ, my scouting drone missing the early pool my opponent made, so I guessed I could just spam drones, till I saw 6 lings getting into my base, rewatched the replay and he did 10pool, vs my 13pool. This was on steppes.

Hah I love this thread, so many good stories.

I just had a good one last night, went ling/baneling against a bad teching protoss... he got two void rays out and I had no anti-air, but it didn't matter since I was wrecking his base.

He's going around pew-pewing my buildings down as I finish tearing down his last couple of buildings... and the game doesn't end. I see the "opponent being revealed" message, I look all over the minimap and see NOTHING. wtf. void rays are still going strong.

I hunt around, can't find anything... FINALLY I see a dot on the minimap that was half-blended in with the rest of the map coloring... run over and see a lone pylon there, begin to attack it... and I lose to void rays. Five seconds more and I had it.

I try to log in for some good 2v2 action but receive an error regarding a temporary outage of battle.net, despite the fact my friend is already in game. 45 minutes later I'm finally able to log in and get into a game, 1 minute in my friend's game crashes within the first 3 minutes and I get overwhelmed. My friend logs back in and we start another game, and I drop within the first minute without a lag screen, despite my internet connection working fine. Not a fun evening.

My two biggest FML's were both in games I won, oddly enough.

1st game was a PvZ in the beta, I went forge FE (hey, it worked in Brood War) and decided to skimp on units while teching to void rays (hey, that also worked in Brood War). I didn't realize the smoke on Metalopolis hides vision, so I assumed I killed the guy's scouting drone. It turned out he built a proxy hatch in the smoke and killed my main with roaches from there. I ended up getting lucky and winning after my desperation cannon rush on his nat somehow worked and killed his drones. Then I managed to charge up the range 7 void rays enough to kill the hydra counter and then his main. After that the guy cried imba on void rays.

2nd game was a PvT where I contained the terran in his base and got my fast expo up, and I thought I would win for sure with this advantage. Next thing you know, I hear "Nuclear Launch Detected" and frantically searched around for a red dot, then I lost all my main probes to that. Big deal, I still have him contained and can rebuilds probes really quickly with 2 chrono boosted nexuses, right?
I thought the red dot was invisible by a glitch so when he nuked again, I assumed he was hitting my expo so I pulled all my probes to a random spot in my base... turned out he nuked my gateways, and the blast radius just happened to catch this random spot in my base, WTF. At this point I was down by more than 20 supply (despite him ignoring my void ray which killed a bunch of stuff in his main) and barely had any probes left, while the terran pushed out of his main with a bunch of marine/tank/marauders.

How did I win from here? Well I had the help of some FML moments from my opponent too. He wiped out my expo easily and walked into my main, when he had a FML moment of his own and dropped a bunch of mules on his hidden gold expo just as my dark shrine finished. He had no detection left for my desperation DT defense. I got lucky with warp prism harass, putting a hold position DT in his semi-island expo while dropping more on his gold expo next door, then un-holding position on my DT after he landed both CCs there and made a bunch of mules and scvs. I got lucky a few more times when I sniped his ghosts with a random DT near his nat and feedback at his gold expo. In the end, I was able to a-move his base after storming 20 clumped marines.
During practice session, I discovered very good build against zerg. -Bisu[Shield]

So im doing my placement matches and it's a PvZ on Steppes of War. I scout this guy going for a baneling bust, lucky for me I've got 2 gateways at the top of the ramp narrowing the choke to 1 square, the pylon is far enough back it wont die from baneling splash and I've got not 1 but 2 sentries ready to forcefield the ramp as soon as he trys to baneling bust me. So I'm sitting here thinking "lol what a scrub this game is in the bag" until starcraft minimizes as windows updater wants to know if now is a good time to restart my computer. In the time it takes me to get back into the game the zealots and sentries are dead and the pylon powering the gateway is surrounded by lings. I try to pull probes to defend but the pylon goes down and more lings flood into my base.

losing to an all in is one thing but one that you scouted coming and are perfectly prepared for is the worst feeling ever.

All play and no work makes Jack unemployed.
